So I've been having great success lately using the Divx-->KVCD guide here to convert all my downloaded movies, but now I'm branching out to dvd ripping and am having some problems! I'm trying to follow Sefy's newest guide but I find things get confusing, especially because there's so many types of films and the fact that it doesn't address the KVCD templates at all. Or Avisynth which seems to be "the way to go" here on this forum.
With that being said I'm trying to rip the Babylon 5 Season 1 discs. Following the guide, I ripped with DVD Decryptor, frameserved with DVD2AVI, converted to AVI using VFAPI converter, downsampled the AC3 and converted to MP2 using HeadAC3he, and now encoding using TMPGENC. But when I load my basic avs script I get the error "LegalClip: Source must be YUV2". In DVD2AVI I selected Force Film. I'm a bit confused if that is necessary also... The source is 16:9 NTSC, 29.9fps. Here's my avs script:
Code:
LoadPlugin("d:\program files\avisynth2\plugins\MPEG2DEC.dll")
LoadPlugin("d:\program files\avisynth2\plugins\LegalClip.dll")
LoadPlugin("d:\program files\avisynth2\plugins\Blockbuster.dll")
LoadPlugin("d:\program files\avisynth2\plugins\FluxSmooth.dll")
LoadPlugin("d:\program files\avisynth2\plugins\Sampler.dll")
LoadPlugin("d:\program files\avisynth2\plugins\GripFit_Preview.dll")
avisource("E:\Movies\BABYLON5_SEASON_1\VIDEO_TS\1x01 forced film_d2v_vfapi.avi", false)
LegalClip()
GripCrop(528, 480, overscan=1)
GripSize()
FluxSmooth()
LegalClip()
#Sampler(length=24)
One final question: what should my settings be for frame rate, aspect ratio, and video arrange in all possible locations for TMPGenc? And if there is a guide somewhere that I don't know about please let me know! Thanks in advance and sorry for all the newbie questions.
