KVCD: Screen problem, something wrong with FitCd?
 

I changed the rez on the kvcdx3 mpeg2 template to 544x480 so that it would play properly on my apex 1500.. and it did, but the only problem now is thati have huge spaces on either right and left side of the screen.

Is there something that i am doing wrong with FitCd? Or is there another way of fixing this??

BTW Kwag... It looks AMAZING!! :)

tks

Re: Screen problem....
 

Thanks BTW,

Encode a clip with blocks overscan set to 1. If it still shows bars on the sides, encode with blocks overscan set to 0.
This is on the FitCD options.

great...
 

Thanks again :)


In the back of my mind i thought that that might be it, but im havent experimented too much with FitCD...

tks


Oh! Can i expect about 60 to 65 mins of video with the kvcdx3 mpeg2 template as well?

Re: great...
 

Hmmm.., expect maybe 55-60 with the MPEG-2 x3 template. It makes a slightly larger file size. But that's with the default settings. You can lower the quality value much lower, and still get amazing results. Then you'll fit way over an hour. Try a quality of 20. :wink:

well...
 

I tried the overscan to 1 and then to 0 and now i get a black bar on the left side of the screen.. Im wondering now if its the 544x480 rez thats making it do that?

If i were to go down to normal SVCD at 480x480 would it destroy the quality alot?

tks

Re: well...
 

You can go down to 480x480, and you won't notice the difference on a regular TV. On a HDTV, you will.
You can try that, or you can also try the SKVCD.

I also got that. The movie is shifted to the right. :cry:

KWAG, good morning! Does this line BilinearResize(544,288,27,0,522,304) have anything to do with that? Should we manually change the 27,0 to say 14,13 :?: :?:

Re: well...
 

Hi reman,
Wow!, how did you get that 27 there 8O Something is wrong
Is that FitCD's script?, because that would defitively be a problem.

-kwag

Re: well...
 

Yes it is a FitCD script. I copies it right from the window. :cry:

Here is the whole script:

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\VCDEasy\FitCD_v104\mpeg2dec_dll\MPEG2DEC.dll ")
AviSource("G:\Video Files\movie\movie.avi")
BilinearResize(544,288,27,0,522,304)
#TemporalSmoother(2,2)
AddBorders(0,96,0,96)
#Trim(0,116869).FadeOut(150)
#ConvertToRGB24 # For TMPGEnc or VFAPI
#ResampleAudio(44100) # CCE 2.5 'crashfix' for Athlons
#== If you want this 'fix' permanently, edit the INI-file:
#== Under [AVSscript] set CCEcrashfix=1

PLUS I have selected Anamorphic and ITU as outlined in your K3 screen shot. Movie is 1:1, 576x304, Accurate, Overscan=0, 3/4th FULL DVD :cry:

Any ideas?

Hi reman,

I see the problem right there. It's your avi file, that has a crazy resolution, like most avi (DivX) files. It's probably throwing off FitCD.

-kwag

Hmmm. Ratio is 2.53 so when I changed the ACCURATE to NO CROPPING and set the resize to 544x256 the ratio is 2.58 for an error of 1.96% AND the script is now:

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\VCDEasy\FitCD_v104\mpeg2dec_dll\MPEG2DEC.dll ")
AviSource("G:\Video Files\movie\movie.avi")
BilinearResize(544,256,0,0,576,304) :wink: -->0,0 :wink:
#TemporalSmoother(2,2)
AddBorders(0,112,0,112)
#Trim(0,116869).FadeOut(150)
#ConvertToRGB24 # For TMPGEnc or VFAPI
#ResampleAudio(44100) # CCE 2.5 'crashfix' for Athlons
#== If you want this 'fix' permanently, edit the INI-file:
#== Under [AVSscript] set CCEcrashfix=1


So, is it better to do above or use a 704x480 template is use custom center with the orig dim. of 576x304 :?: :?:

Okay! KWAG, tell me if this is right, 544+112+112 = 768 which exceeds the 704 width of the screen. SOoooo the large left border pushes the video to the right. If I change this to 80+544+80=704 OR AddBorders(0,80,0,80) I guess that does it :?:

Followup, I did a 1 min burn with 112 and 80. 112 has video shifted left while the 80 had video from edge to edge BUT there is video missing on the sides :cry: . What is wrong :?:

Hey reman,

The wrong is that the 112 and 112 are adding vertical borders.
So 256+112+112=480. Your resolution is 544x480... that's the x3 resolution (with 3/4DVD full). :wink:

I don't know why your movie is shifted to the right, as you are adding no horizontal borders. 8O
What are your TMPGEnc settings?
Just make sure the source aspect ration is set to 4:3 display, and the video arrange method is set to full screen (not keep aspect ratio, just full screen).

Check it... see if it works. :idea:

Success!!

That worked perfectly... Thanks....
