If you can tell us what's on line 9 of your script
It it's your "avisource" line, you probably need another CODEC for that type of avi you're trying to process.

I can play my avi. (xvid) file with Windows Media Player, no problemas.
It's just that I cant play the avs. script without haveing that error message

My avi. source is on line 9

//Wolfi//Thanks for answering so quickly Kwag

[kwag]

Try increasing your DirectShow priority in TMPEG.

[Wolfi]

Thanks Kwag but sorry I dont get it at all What is DirectShow, have'nt heard about it And what will it make different if I increase the priority I even dont know were to find DirectShow in TMPGEnc

Run TMPEG. Click on "Options". Click on "Environmental Setting". Click on "VFAPI Plug-in", and there you'll see a list of plugs. Increase the one that says "DirectShow Multimedia Reader" to 1 or 2.

It still shows me the same error I browsed my avs. script and increased the priority as ytou said, but no different

No then, what should I do kind of stuck...

About this line in the error:
ACM failed to suggest a compatible PCM format

What does it actually mean?

[kwag]

Wolfi,

In your avisource line, change it to read: avisource("YourFile.avi", audio="false")

I've no tried many times with this script:

LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\MPEG2DEC.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\VDu b\plugins\textsub.vdf")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\GripFit_preview.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\LegalClip.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\Sampler.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\DustV5.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\TemporalCleanerOld.dll")

AviSource("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\movie-cd1-xvid.avi",C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\audio-cd1-xvid.mpeg="false")

ConvertToYUY2()
LegalClip()
GripCrop( width= 352, height=480, overscan=1 )
GripSize()
SpaceDust()
TemporalCleaner()
GripBorders()
LegalClip()
#Sampler(length=24)
## MPEG size = ((Total frames/MovieTimeInMinutes)/24) * MPEG sample file size ##
TextSub("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\movie-cd2-xvid.sub")

BUt when I play this script it gives me this error:

Script error: expected a, or )
(C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Film.avs, line 9, column 81)

I CAN'T find something wrong in the script

Do you?

I have never used avisource but that line in your script just does not look correct

AviSource("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\movie-cd1-xvid.avi",C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\audio-cd1-xvid.mpeg="false")

from what Kwag said above it should read something like

AviSource("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\movie-cd1-xvid.avi", audio="false")

cheers,

[Wolfi]

Yeah maybe, I'll try.

But it is possible to separate the sound from the avi. (xvid) source? If I can do that,maybe I wont have this error message:

ACM failed to suggest a compatible PCM format

[Wolfi]

I tried this in my script:

AviSource("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\movie-cd1-xvid.avi", audio="false")

But no, it gave my this error in WMP

Script error: the named argument "audio" to AviSource had the wrong type
(C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\movie.avs, line 9)

Script:

LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\MPEG2DEC.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\VDu b\plugins\textsub.vdf")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\GripFit_preview.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\LegalClip.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\Sampler.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\DustV5.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\Program\Blandat\Fit CD\TemporalCleanerOld.dll")

AviSource("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\movie-cd1-xvid.avi", audio="false")

ConvertToYUY2()
LegalClip()
GripCrop( width= 352, height=480, overscan=1 )

#Sampler(length=24)
## MPEG size = ((Total frames/MovieTimeInMinutes)/24) * MPEG sample file size ##
TextSub("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\The.Ring.CD1.sub")

I am still wondering if I can separate the audio from the avi source file I mean so the avi. file only plays the movie with NO sound.

//Wolfi

[Jellygoose]

it should read THIS wolfi :

AviSource("C:\Documents and Settings\Lars\Skrivbord\Tobias\movie-cd1-xvid.avi", audio=false)

this should work.

[Wolfi]

Thanks a lot Jellygoose It works!
