thanks bman,
you know,i'm not too inteligent like you all,
i only "speak too much",or better:
ask too much!
:lol:

i'm using avisynth 2.08 and the line that it says is my problem (line 7) is the line for mpeg2source...but i can't see any problems with it...

they're in d:\vcd\movie stacker\filters\

here's the first lines from my .d2v file:

right, but where in the script? :?
your script:
LoadPlugin("D:\VCD\Movie Stacker\Filters\Mpeg2Dec.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\VCD\Movie Stacker\Filters\GripFit_preview.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\VCD\Movie Stacker\Filters\Unfilter.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\VCD\Movie Stacker\Filters\LegalClip.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\VCD\Movie Stacker\Filters\Sampler.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\VCD\Movie Stacker\Filters\STMedianFilter.dll")
mpeg2Source("C:\CATCH_ME_IF_YOU_CAN\VIDEO_TS\prf.c atch.me.if.you.can.d2v")

try put this in the script:
LoadPlugin("D:\VCD\Movie Stacker\Filters\MergeChroma.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\VCD\Movie Stacker\Filters\MergeLuma.dll")
:wink:
try it!
ovg64 and bman posted that avisynth208 install this dlls but
no one dll was intaled in my system,
only avisynth.dll in system folder,nothing more!
i download and unzip the files,then work!

ps:
the first lines from your .d2v file seems ok!
:!:

nope, didn't work...same thing. i'm starting to get frusturated. I might uninstall all my stuff and reinstall it all

Irishliquor, right unistall and reinstall avisynth but before you do that if you have a software like Norton Utilities Win Doctor , you can safelly fix your register from programs you had in the past and had problems with this way Windows becomes faster and more stable. :D

i just formatted and reloaded my system...i don't think there's registry errors, but i could be wrong. I've already tried to uninstall and reinstall avisynth, i'm redoing all the software i use to make KVCDs

The easiest thing to do is to start commenting out filters and resize lines until you only leave the mpeg2Source line.

Then open TMPGEnc 's Environmental settings tab (Options -->Environmental Setting --> VFAPI Plug-in) and make sure that ReadAVS and DVD2AVI Project File Reader are listed.

One other thing:

I don't know if TMPGEnc or Avisynth likes the naming convention with all the . (periods). Try a regular name.

ok, how do i get more plugins? i don't have either of those listed; ReadAVS or DVD2AVI Project File Reader. i changed the filename to catch.d2v and had the same problem...but let me know how to add those features to TMPGEnc

Check out this thread. I think it's the 2nd post down for READAVS.

I would worry about this one first. I don't remember how the DVD2Avi Project File Reader was installed. But TMPGEnc will not work without ReadAVS installed.

tmpgenc never had a problem before, maybe i need the DVD2AVI one though...because i installed it and it didn't work with the d2v file...

Check here. I don't know if it truly contains what you need, but it's what TMPGEnc has.

ok, the DVD2AVI Project file reader worked...next question:

Does it normally take longer to encode from a d2v project than an avi source?

Yes :wink:

Kwag:

Alot longer?

holy bejesus, it's taken 7 minutes to encode 17 seconds of video...is this normal? or maybe my script is screwy, or a setting in ToK or TEMPGenc?

A .d2v encode has to go through vfapi. An AVI encode, goes directly through the AVI CODEC. That's why the .d2v project is slower.
