thanx guys not anybodys fault and i already used dvd shrink. i'll just have to try again but first my next source is widescreen not anophbic(that one word so what would be gripcrops line. example (gripcrop(320, 240widescreen_true?)

You said it all in your question : the source is non anamorphic, so the line must contain "source_anamorphic=false". That's so simple

Note: NEVER use dvdshrink on a KVCD ! I don't understand how you can do that BTW.

so it is supposed to look like this (Gripcrop(320, 240,overscan=1,source_anamorphic=false)? and why shouldn't I use DVDshrink because I take out the other language, subs, and credits.

You said you solved your size problem by using dvdshrink so I assumed that you used it on the KVCD you had encoded. Did you do that or did you use it on the source ?

For the gripcrop line, yes that is okay except that320*240 is used for length above 2h30 ! I don't know what is your source lenght but you can probably use a better resolution.

my source is The Matrix, used dvd shrink to edit out the credits so the movie is 2 hours and 9 min and 21 sec. i chosed the res because it has a lot of action. so my script should look like

Okay. That's not a bad way to think like this. Just try a prediction only with CQMatic at 352*480. On this source that can give great results.

I am VERY surprised that the matrix is not anamorphic. Are you sure about your statment ?

The script is okay.

because does "16X9LB" mean widescreen letterbox

And what is the error ?

Nope. All is good in this.

You're right. That's surprising for a such blockbuster. The european edition is anamorphic.

in TMPGEnc an error popped up that said "file "D:/the_matrix.avs" can not open or unsupported" but I changed in the avs to a different .d2v

Be sure that you have correct DVD2AVI.vfp file into your TMPGEnc folder.

Dialhot · #31 07-18-2004, 05:46 AM

that will suprise you but what you missed is the XVID codec. Yes, xvid.

why xvid ? and where do i get it at? i downloaded nics xvid codec and keeped closing and opening TMPGEnc unil it worked but when it opened the .avs it says "MPEG-1 476x56 24fps CQ 60" and it looks like a bad tv reception. it varies every time i open it .

thanx for the help Pro and Phil

it worked and i found the problem of the color disortion and

it was in front of us the whole time and it was

Quote:

Gripcrop(320, 240,overscan=1,source_anamorphic=false)

and not

Quote:

Gripcrop(352, 240,overscan=1,source_anamorphic=false)

but i think it was the xvid codec that made it work but why?

password · #34 07-18-2004, 03:28 PM

and one more thing i open TMPGEnc and load "KVCD-CQ-352x480-_NTSCFilm_-PLUS" and then open the .avs and checked the settings and i noticed that the video source type changes to interlaced but dvd2avi says the video type is "film" and frame type is "progressive"

i am going to change it to progressive anyways . thanx for the help

Correct ! And the ...x56 resolutino you have indicated that tehre was an error. here the error was "Gripcrop don't know this resolution (320*240)" or somethign close.

ANYTIME ytou have something in ...x56, open the script in a mediaplayer or in virtualdub and you will have the error message.

Magic

TMPGENC works in the YUY2 colorspace, the scripts producses a picture in YV12, so you need to have a YV12->YUY2 convertor on your PC. That is were Xvid codec is used. It is not at all for the codec part of the soft, bu only the colorspace convertor
