Hi Hank
,
Here it goes.
I'm running HCGUI and HCBATCH 0.14beta.
I riped "The Matrix" PAL 16:9 DVD with DVDDecrypter 3.5.4.0 in IFO mode.
I created a DVD2AVI project file with DGMPGDec 1.3.0.
I have Avisynth 2.5.5 installed.
I created an incredibly simple script such as:
Code:
Mpeg2Source("E:\matrix_i\D2V\matrix_i.d2v")
I created an HC.ini such as:
Code:
-------------------------------
HC.ini template
These commands are required
Use full pathnames and just use the bitrate you want
-------------------------------
*infile E:\MATRIX_I\D2V\matrix.avs
*outfile E:\MATRIX_I\D2V\test.m2v
*bitrate 4000
*maxbitrate 8000
-------------------------------
Next commands are optional
putting a space for it disables a command
Not all commands are shown here,
see the manual for a complete list and default values
-------------------------------
*logfile E:\MATRIX_I\D2V\test.log
*cpu auto
*matrix mpeg
*profile best
*aspect 16:9
*gop 15 2
*interlaced
*tff
*closedgops
*cq 6.3
*cq_maxbitrate 5.575
*dc_prec 10
*frames 100 200
The problem is the output has a black picture with some diagonal stripes such as when you're tuning a chanel on a TV and you can't quite find it.
This happens with both the GUI and the Batch version.
If I open the scrip in MPC or VDubMod it looks fine.
I would send you an email with a small clip for you to see but we don't have your email...
BTW if I change the script and use a resizer or something similar it works perfectly...
Any ideas?
Cheers
