Thanks! I haven't ever used that one...always used vcdquality, rlslog.net is really useful as well. I enjoy the RSS feed :DQuote:

you might also try junknova.com
The http://www.vcdquality.com is the only site listed that 'attempts' to do it, although of course they rely on users feedback, and that can be very variable; you have to read the comments.Quote:

There used to be a couple of sites years ago that would list the actual 'base size' of the dvd's, and recoded size, and the % of the result and other information, but they are gone to dust. Even 'release' groups like 'Replica' most of the time don't list any quality numbers in their nfo's anymore.
That's why I avoid them like the plague, unless they have something that I really want. It's simply far easier to do the recode job myself, or, with the price of DVD9's, burn that.
The era of dvd's that look like poor vhs copies is over. Except for those who like that.
^^ Replica must follow the DVDR RELEASING STANDARDS
or else their releases would be nuked. If it's a group I trust and they list just bitrate, I could guess the # of passes or vice versa.
General:
. Release size must be at 4.3-4.37 Gb unless source is DVD5.
. PAL after NTSC and NTSC after PAL is allowed.
Video:
. Re-encoding:
. CCE version 2.50+ or must be used in all
Circumstances where transcoding (re-encoding) of the
video stream is required. REmpeg and TMPGenc are NOT allowed.
New unknown or unreleased encoders are not strictly
forbidden, however use at your own risk.
. Automated Programs that perform DVD9>DVD5 rips are
FORBIDDEN, e.g. InstanCopy, DVDXCopy, DVDShrink etc.
. Minimum average bitrate allowed is 3000 kbit/s
(2800 kbit/s for tv shows). If minimum average bitrate
cannot be achieved, a valid explanation is required in
the NFO.
. TV-DVDR does not need to be deinterlaced.
. Quality Settings:
. CCE:
. No CBR. Multipass is to be enforced.
. The initial 1st pass that encodes the .vaf file
in CCE is NOT considered within the multipass set.
. The number of passes required for a movie is to
be determined by the final avg bitrate. Under
4,000k/s 6+ passes required, over 4,000k/s
5 passes are required.
If you are talking about nfo files, I like to use:
