Other remark : you use avi as source, they surely not anamorphic. So you muut use "Gripcrop(X,Y,source_anamorphic=false)".

Hi guys and thanks for all the feedback.

THIS IS THE MA PART!:Quote:

SwitchThreshold = (Width<=352) ? 4 : (Width<=480) ? 3 : 2
ScriptClip("nf = YDifferenceToNext()"+chr(13)+ "nf >= SwitchThreshold ? \
unfilter( -(fmin(round(nf)*2, 100)), -(fmin(round(nf)*2, 100)) ) : \
TemporalSoften( fmin( round(2/nf), 6), round(1/nf) , round(3/nf) , 1, 1) ")

.... followed by the needed fmin-function lines at the end

I have no idea what this means im not real good with scripts can you give
me a little more info?

But! In case of AVI if you don't want to use MA just switch to one of DialHots scripts ... their purpose is exactly what you need ... well as it seems to me in your case.

I dont know were these scripts are can you provide a link?

Hey Max,

Glad to see that you're on your way now.

But is there any particular reason why you chose to use such a low resolution of 352x240? (ick! ). Considering that your source files have a resolution of 640x480, and you are only putting three of these ~22-minute episodes per disc (according to your script), you should definetly be able to use a higher, better looking resolution. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if you could fit 4 episodes per disc at a decent quality level while using a 480/528/544x480 resolution (that is, depending on what works in your player and your minimum CQ level preferences). If you only want 3 episodes per disc, you could even use 704x480, but IMO for a cartoon like Family Guy, anything above 544x is probably overkill. ( On second thought, since your source has already suffered a quality-loss during the conversion to xvid, you might actually want to consider using 704x480 so that you maintain every extra bit of detail that you can from that 640x file of yours). If higher resolution KVCDs do work on your player, then I'd recommend doing a small visual comparison between 480/528/544x and 704x samples and using one of those. If higher resolution KVCDs don't work on your player, then I'd recommend looking for a new player this holiday season!

Im not real clear on the different resolutions to work with or how to modify
them to souit my needs but I will deffantly try out your sugestion, im not
realy sure what my dvd player can handle seems iv always used the 352x
240 resolution for everything I do, since its always worked. I want to make
sure the next dvd player I get can handle kvcd, xvcd, xsvcd etc...etc...
Any ideas what kind of options I should be looking for when purchasing a
dvd player?

Can you give me an example of how to do this I dont even know were to
start?

Thank you all for all the feedback you guys are great, im still trying to
understand cq, vbr, res and all the other things iv read in this forum, so
thanks for being patient with me I know it must be frustrating for you at
times explaining things that may seem obvious when you know what to do
next but for someone like me who just dosnt get your feedback is GOLD!

Did you ever read the script that you use ? There is a line Gripcrop in it ! Do you see it ?

Max Powers · #24 12-02-2003, 01:57 PM

Yes I see it do I need to modify it somehow if so what should it be this is
the reason i asked for an example? or should I use version 4 of your scripts? And were can I find BlindPP(cpu=4)? Is this a filter for avisynth25?

incredible · #25 12-02-2003, 04:35 PM

Just let one of the scripts v1-v4 run on your source man, ... by previewing the .avs in Vdub or Zoomplayer the screen will tell you if something is missed! Cause thats how Avisynths error report works

red Error explanation on the preview screen IF something appears non-correct to avisynth.

I told you how to modify it in my first posst. That's why I still don't understand why you are asking again.

Code:

Gripcrop(X,Y,source_anamorphic=false)

(X and Y stand for you width and heiht, so 352 and 240 in your case).
I can't be more cristalin !

Yes. As incredible told you already.

This is included in mpeg2dec3.

Max Powers · #27 12-02-2003, 08:22 PM

I asked about BlindPP(cpu=4) because my script said I had no function or
something by this name but it turns out the problem was that I did not
load the mpeg2dec3.dll plugin but now I loaded this plugin and all is fine

Quick question I thought Avisynth 252 was supposed to load all pluggins
automatically, as long as they were in the same folder of course but I
always have to add the pluggins my self and not being very familiar with
scripts I have to keep loading pluggins untill I find the write one that works.

So can anyone tell me how to make my filters load automaticaly

Just put all your filters (.dll's) in C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\
( If that's where you installed AviSynth 2.5

)

Kwag help I did what you said and now all my scripts say this when I open them in wmp

Quote:

"Ran out of memory (Error=8007000E)"

and I get a no video error in vdub if I try to
open them in vdub what did I do wrong I even uninstalled avisynth 252
and re installed it and tmpgenc wont open it either

Dialhot · #30 12-03-2003, 04:08 AM

In the plugins directory you should have only the dll of the plugins. Try to remove everything that is not a "dll" and see if that fix the problem.

Are you sure all the plugins in the directory are for avs2.5 ? Check that also.

Max Powers · #31 12-03-2003, 05:55 AM

All the filters I have I downloaded from here:

http://www.avisynth.org/warpenterprises/

I downloaded all the filters from the "AviSynth 2.5" Colomn and extracted
all the .dll's into the plugins directory 2.5 where I installed Avisynth 2.5,
same one Kwag mentioned above...However I did notice that when I used
your V4 script avisynth refused to open one of the pluggins, saying it was
not an 2.5 filter but I cant remember which one gave this error. after going
through all my dll's I found one that was compatable and got your script to
work, is this the only way to make sure all filters are infact 2.5 or is their
an easier way to check them?

I realize im being a real pain but everything you sugested so far has been
right on the money I even changed my res from 352 x 240 to 704 x 480 and with your v4 script it looks fantastic!
