Variance masking V Luminance masking in Xvid!

datauser · 28th November 2015, 22:09

Anyone out there who can kindly tell me which one has the greater benefit for an Xvid encoding and if they should be turned on or off in the 1st pass and left on for the 2nd pass only? There isnt much info on variance apart from some dated info on luminance. With not using Xvid for a few years due to H264(now getting to grips with H265!)and having to encode a file up for a friend's old standalone my old noodle is working overtime again. Cheers guys for any help!
