Invalid Floating Point Operation -- ToK
 

I fairly new to creating my own kvcds

i triedd to use "Guide to convert Divx to KVCD" by black prince.

I'm getting an error when i try to load my avs script which says: "Invalid Floating Point Operation" in ToK. Then i can't

press the Start button.

Here is the script I am using... the latest optimal script:


#########START
AviSource("C:\Movie\xvid-movie.avi",false)
BlindPP(cpu=4)
Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max =3,variance=0.1,seed=1)
Convolution3D(1, 6, 12, 6, 8, 2.8, 0)
GripCrop(576, 240, overscan=1, source_anamorphic=false)
GripSize(resizer="LanczosResize")
Undot()
TemporalSoften(2,7,7,3,2)
DCTFilter(1,1,1,1,1,1,0.5,0)
#Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_ma x=10,variance=0.3,seed=5623)
GripBorders()
########END

/////////my concerns:

should i be using the optimal scripts in tok?

what resolution should i be using? the source is 576x240, so i used the same in the script.

is it okay to use xvid instead of divx movie files?

please tell me what i'm doing wrong. thanks in advance

@kwag - sorry about my previous post

1/ The resolution to put in the gricrop line if the one of the target.
2/ yes, TOk can use optimal script as whatever other script.
3/ xvid or divx is the same as long as you have the related CODEC installed on you PC.
4/ what you are doing wrong is to not verify the validity of your script in WMP (or zoomplayer) before opening it in TOk.

First do a script that works in wmp, then you will try to give it to tok.

ty for replying

wmp doesn't recognize the .avs extension. what is wmp supposed to do with the script anyways? it's not a media file or anything.

and what does "Invalid Floating Point Operation" actually mean? there has to be something wrong with the script, or maybe ToK itself.

i have the xvid codec installed and the file can play perfectly in .avi format.

:arrow: I do not use to give advices just for the pleasure of typing words on my keyboard :-)

All media players play avs as they see it as a regular avi. Force wmp to launch the avs by doing a right click and "open with..." or by opening wmp first, then menu file -> open.

For the moment your very first problem is to make a script that works. And the one you have is DEFINITELY not working (due to the error in the gripcrop line).

When your script will be played correctly in wmp, _then_ you will add the "TOK" problem. The "floating point" error is an third problem that we will see later if it still present.

Let do the things in the correct order...

Note : you can play a file correctly and still don't have a valid codec for it on the disc. There are otehr way to play a file than using a codec (directshow filter). Unfortunaly, avisynth use only the codec. That is also why you must be sure that the avs is played correctly before to go to the next step.

i tried to open it with wmp, but i got an error and had to close. it was the kind of error that asked you to send an error report or not.

so now my next step is to make a script that works. but how am i supposed to do that if i know nothing about scripts?

you say that there is an error in the gripcrop line. the only thing i changed from the optimal scrpt was the width & height, which i copied from the dimensions of the movie. perhaps there is something else in that line that needs to be changed to suit my movie.

besides width and height, what do the other two parameters of the gripcrop line do (overscan and source_anamorphic)? and what must their values be if i want to convert from avi xvid?

With the help of people on this forum :-)

I anwsered to that question in the point #1 of my first answer :!:

The paramters tell to gripcrop if the source is anamorphic and if you want an anamorphic dest.
By default, source_anamorphic is set to true, and dest_anamorphic is set to false. All avi are non anamorphic, so you have to put "source_anamorphic=false" in gripcrop line to bypass the default.

alright, so i guess it's a problem with overscan=1....

what does overscan mean and what should the value be instead?

No there is no problem with that parameter either.
As you told, you modified only the width and the height in the original script. As we do not provide scripts with errors, the only point where the problem could be is in what you changed ! Not in what you just copy from my post.

Can you tell me what you understand in these words ?
Don't you see the difference with what you wrote ?
In other words, did you catch that the target and the movie (ie the source) aren't the same things ?

hmm interesting...

i have tried all the resolutions found on this webpage:
http://www.kvcd.net/dvd-models.html

and all of them give me an error when i try to load the script in wmp.

And what is this error you have when you use a valid resolution ?

using this script:

##start
AviSource("C:\movie\movie-xvid.avi",false)
BlindPP(cpu=4)
Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max =3,variance=0.1,seed=1)
Convolution3D(1, 6, 12, 6, 8, 2.8, 0)
GripCrop(352, 240, overscan=1, source_anamorphic=false)
GripSize(resizer="LanczosResize")
Undot()
TemporalSoften(2,7,7,3,2)
DCTFilter(1,1,1,1,1,1,0.5,0)
#Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_ma x=10,variance=0.3,seed=5623)
GripBorders()
##end

Drop wmp then. I don't know why it can play avs on your PC and does on every others.

Use Zoomplayer for instance.

Note: did you at least installed avisynth on your PC ?

zoom player gives me an error as well:

and yes, i have avisynth 2.5 installed from the beginning

It really seems that avisynth it is not correctly installed.

Can you check by making a little script with only "Version()" in it ?
It his script does not work either then reinstall avisynth from scratch.

(you can join the opportunity to take the last 2.5.4 taht just came out today
http://www.kvcd.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8802)

ok, i think we're getting somewhere with my probelm (finally...) :D

the Version() .avs file gave me the same error as my normal error. I then uninstalled avisynth and installed version 2.5.4. i tried the version file again and it listed the avisynth version number, authors etc.

so i think this means i'm on the right track.

i tried my original script in zoom player again, but it gave me an error in red text on a black background which said:
"Script error: there is no function named 'BlindPP'
(C:\directory\Script1.avs, line 2)"

and i already moved all my plugins from the old avisynth directory to the 2.5.4 plugins dir.

btw. thanks for your help so far Dialhot, and being patient. :wink:

Blinpp is included in mpeg2dec3 plugin, so you miss this one.

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

Be sure to have 2.5 version of each DLL and not 2.0.

cool cool...

i loaded the script in zoom player and i saw my movie in two frames. the picture was purple and looked distorted and had no sound. there was also a green horizontal bar in the middle.

the script worked in tok and didnt give me that invalid floating point operation, but there was a problem in tmpgenc. it was hard to read, but it had the red script again and said something about sampler.dll not being an Avisynth 2.5 plugin. i checked that list of plugins you gave me and sampler.dll wasn't there. and then a message box popped up in tmpgenc and said "runtime error 216 at 00002F3C"


so now i just need to find the sampler.dll plugin for avisynth 2.5

any idea where i can grab one?

search button, "sample AND rar" -> enjoy.

sweet. tmpgenc is encoding right now with a cq of 89.39

i'll let you know how it turns out. thanks again

the sound is fine, but the video is stretched horizontally. the source was in widescreen with no black bars on the sides, and the .mpg file had very big horizontal bars and ended up stretching the picture.

the source was 562*240

i was using 352*480 resolution for the destination.

what went wrong?
