Sometimes, it's ok to make an educated guess: For animes that are released fansubbed shortly (within days/weeks) after they aired in Japan, you can safely assume "DTV" (Digital TV) as source. Another case for educated guessing is "HKDVD" (Hongkong-DVD) - the video-quality may be ok for them, but the translation is usually horrible, which is how you can spot them.

===Video and audio information===
==Streams==
Use [[AOM]] to easily determine the codecs and bitrates used in avi-files. For mkv/ogm-files, you can use [http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/ MediaInfo] or the [http://matroska.org/downloads/shellextension/index.html Matroska Shell Extension]. Another possible program, which we consider trustworthy is [http://virtualdubmod.sourceforge.net/ Virtualdubmod] (Gspot is easy to use, but not very accurate so it's '''NOT''' recommended.)

'''Note:''' Many XviD-encodes have a "DIVX" or "DX50" 4cc (for compatibility) and are thus often wrongly recognized as DivX4 or DivX5. In GSpot, you may find an additional signature displayed near the DivX one, for example "DIVX/xvid" or "DX50/xvid". In such cases, please always set the codec on AniDB to XviD.
