ok,thank you friend....
it was in front of my eyes and i don't see it!!


thanks Villa21

Holomatrix,
"...How do I Calculate the value? What would my script look like, using that whole script, for a 352 X 480 resolution?..."

(352*240*20) / (352*480) = 10

[AVISYNTH_BlockbusterBilinearResize]
0=BilinearResize(^TargetWidth,^TargetHeight)
1=AddBorders(0,^BorderTop,0,^BorderBottom)
2=LoadPlugin(!Blockbuster.dll)
3=Blockbuster( method="noise", detail_min=1, detail_max=10, lv=1 )
4=Blockbuster( method="sharpen", detail_min=20, detail_max=90, strength=^StrengthValue )
!Blockbuster.dll=C:\VideoTools\DVD2SVCD\Blockbuste r\Blockbuster.dll
^StrengthValue=10

Or alternatively set this value in the frameserver tab of DVD2SVCD.

Ok, thanks.

I can't seem to get DVD2SVCD accept 5823 P GOP"S. Is this amount nessessary?

Hi Holomatrix

In dvd2svcd, put the following values:1,18,3,1,18 for ntsc or 1,15,3,1,15 for pal.

ARAGORN

Ok, I'll put that. But was wondering why the KVCD LBR 352X240 template is using 1,5823,3,1,18 ?
Thanks

5823 is like a signature in all the kvcd templates. It's there to show it's a kwag template. In dvd2svcd it doesn't work.

Quick update:

I'm currently porting Blockbuster to YV12, which will be the 0.5 release. After that, are there any additions people would like to see? One thing I was considering is the addition of an unsharp mask method.

Hi SansGrip,

Can't think of anything right now. I'm having a good time with the filters as they are

-kwag

Here's 0.5 with minor changes for the Avisynth 2.0/YUY2 version but now includes an Avisynth 2.5/YUY2/YV12 version.

Changes:

* Removed chroma noising (and cm and cv parameters)
* Renamed lm and lv to mean and variance respectively
* Some small optimizations here and there

Even though not much has changed in the Avisynth 2.0/YUY2 version, I'd appreciate if everyone could upgrade in order to test this one works okay. You'll probably find it a bit faster too .

Have fun.

@SansGrip,

I'm going to write a script to mirror your site every hour.
You're updates are coming in too fast
Count on it, in the next few minutes

Edit:
I've added LegalClip() filter to my processing script.
Here's the latest script I'm using, with the change for Blockbuster version 0.5:

LegalClip() # Just in case, ensure TV Colorspace. ( Is this correct SansGrip )
FluxSmooth()
NoMosmooth()

######## Auto Strength, proportional strength depending on resolution #####
## Remove only one "#" on front of the resolution that matches your encoding.

BB_Resolution = 352*240
#BB_Resolution = 352*480
#BB_Resolution = 528*480
#BB_Resolution = 544*480
#BB_Resolution = 704*480

BB_StrengthConstant = 352 * 240 * 20 # Base strength
StrengthValue = round (BB_StrengthConstant / BB_Resolution)
Blockbuster( method="noise", detail_min=1, detail_max=10, variance=1 ) # Apply noise if complexity is <= 10%.
Blockbuster( method="sharpen", detail_min=20, detail_max=90, strength=StrengthValue) # Sharpen only if complexity is >= 20% AND <=90%.

# The last ~10% is left untouched (pass-through), to avoid sharpening highest frequency components ( Peak artifacts, sharpest edge, etc. )
##
################## End Auto Strength ####################

heheh cool, thanks.

Yep, I would use it right after the ...Source line, then again at the very end of the script to catch any strays that may have snuck in during filtering.

I'm not sure you'll gain much by using Flux and NoMo together that couldn't be achieved by using just one with stronger settings. Personally I'd go with Flux, but that's just my opinion .

http://www.jungleweb.net/~sansgrip/avisynth is now mirrored ~5 minutes past every hour to http://www.kvcd.net/sansgrip/avisynth

So NoMo is out of the script, for now

-kwag

Wow you go away for a couple of days and the revolution just rolls right pass you. So many new developments. Are there any new test clips Kwag ? Something that would show the sucess of your new script ?

I'll make one up for you . Stand by .....

Edit:
Here it is: KVCD LBR CQ_VBR=35 ( which fits this particular 120 minute movie on one CD-R ) 47 seconds ~5MB : http://www.kvcd.net/latest.m1v

Thanks Kwag. The clip helps to know what to expect and the quality looks great. Have you ever tried the script on "the Matrix" ?

I don't know if this has been answered but does this work on tv captures ?

BTW why two legal clips ?

Hi LadyMiles,

This is from the post above:

-black prince

has anyone tried this?

http://tangentsoft.net/video/asynther/

I've used it to make several scripts of different movie sizes and now all I have to do is right click on the movie then send to Avisynthesizer and it makes a script for the movie.

I just uploaded 0.6 to my site. Here's the changelog:

This means you should now be able to drop the cache=1024 from your scripts, since I believe I have fixed the bug that caused the access violation.

The seed parameter allows one to specify the seed value for the pseudo-random number generator. If seed=0 (the default) it'll use the system's current time as in previous versions. If seed>0 it'll use that value for the seed, and there will be no variations in file size when run multiple times.

Hint: It doesn't really matter what number you choose for the seed. As long as it's the same for each run, the file size won't change. I used 1 for my tests, but hey, use your imagination .

Let me know how you find it.

Hi SansGrip,


Thank you, Thank you, thank you, thank you......
