I load the mpeg into VirtualDubMod, then I disable the sound stream. then I choose fast re-compress on the video menu, then for compression I use Huffy codec. then I save as a avi file. From there I wait until it's done extracting the avi, then I extract the wave from the same mpeg in VdubMod.

I then use moviestacter to get the file pathe to the extracted avi, copy that and paste that into your Avisource script. then I open that avs script in tmpgenc and save to tmpgenc text file so it can be open with CQ matic.

from there I let tmpgenc do a full encode using CQ matic. when the video file is done I check it's size and convert the wave file to Mp2 using the size of the video to determine what setting to use in HeadAc3he.

then I mux the two together in tmpgenc.

As for the "clear" details I mean sharper image details there is some blurriness around the images when I use DirectShowSource. Not much but some.

The only thing that I can see if that the directshow filter that handles MPEG on your PC (and that is used when you do DirectShowSource, as you already understood) output picture not as sharper than the ones decoded by virtualdub (taht uses a CODEC to perform that).

That is also why directshowsource is definitely NOT recommanded.

So I should continue to extract the avi through vdub, Instead of using DirectShowsource?

Honestly, if I were you I won't be abble to live with a blured image is I know I had a solution to obtain a better one. So I will go for temporary avi

You're right

I was hoping to save a couple of steps by not having to extract the avi through Vdub each time. But with how slow the DirectShowSource opens up, I figure I'll spend more time in the long run correcting that than if I just extract the avi through vdubmod.

thanks for explaining a few things to me!!

It just goes to show ya' that some shortcuts don't work


I'll talk with you agin, in another thread I'm sure.

thanks Dialhot
