I'm using CQmatic for the first time. DVD rip of a 90 or so minute movie. Script came from MovieStacker using the VHS script (poor quality DVD picture). The 1st prediction pass took 34 minutes. It's now on the 6th pass and seems to have switched itself to the 3x method and now taking 3hrs for a pass. Is this right?

Otherwise seems pretty cool.

Thanks for any help.

As I know, in default 3000 frames are used for one pred. turn. So 34mins for 3000 frames is too much. BUT .. as Im not God, I dont know your CPU power, or if u used a bad cofigurated avisynth Script or whatever.

So .... we need infos!

Sorry about that...should have added more detail.

I'm using an Athlon 2800, winXP, 256RAM

I cancelled it and went and ran DVD2SKVCD with CQMatic for prediction but using the interlaced script it comes with. The calculation took only 45 minutes total (3 passes at 15 minutes each) this time, so it might have been the script...or maybe something about the way I setup TMPGenc. It seems to work fine through DVD2SKVCD though.

With the script you used, the time is not a surprise...

Note: How can you use FaeryDust with avs2.5 ???

It's the LoadPluginEx2.dll. It allows you to load AVS 2.0x plugins in 2.5x, you'll just have to convert to YUY2 before using any of the Dust filters.

I know but I thought that you have to do a manual load of the plugin just before to use the 2.0x plugin and NOT let it in autoloading.
But I'm probably wrong...
