Use the latest script Dialhot recomand for DivX. Paste it in to avisynth.ini in DVD2SVCDs directory. Place the plugins you need into that directory that DVD2KVCD have copied it's plugin into. (the files DVD2KVCD has copied is grip_fit, UnDot.dll, TemporalCleaner.dll, unfilter25.dll+++). So find this directory, and place the need files into this folder (you need to add Convolution3DYV12.dll and blockbuster.dll)
I hope I can update to the new avs DivXscript, but I have problems with it to :?

DVD2KVCD 2.0.10:

-Audio encoding with HeadAC3he after video encoding will make imagesize even more precice.
-Removed DivX avs scipt for a litle while. It seems to be buggy. If you want to convert DivX movies, add the script manuelly

azel my friend,
thanks for your great(and hard) work!
:wink:

maybe off topic:
about headac3he i had problems a long time ago using frame selection,
take a read please:
http://www.kvcd.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1989

of course,in my opinion headac3he give better quality
but only work in d2s using sweethead and without frame selection!

See my answer there :

http://www.kvcd.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=52305#52305

@ Jorel
Hi!
Yes, encoding with headAC3he doesn't support frame selection.
But you don't need Sweethead, DVD2KVCD does the job sweethead should do! But you have to use BeSweet if you want frameselection in the mean time.

@ TheDJ
Try the latest version, DVD2KVCD 2.0.10. There was some bitrate bugs in the 2.0.8 version. But I removed the DivX script, because it had so many bugs, and CQMatic is not so good at DivX converstions. I think that maybe standard DVD2SVCD prediction is best when converting DivX movies.
Don't care about worst CQ. It have no function longer. It is a function that I made for some of the first version of DVD2KVCD. This version had a own prediction system, and it choose the best template for the movie automaticly by choosing a worst CQ. But I won't remove it, because I maybe add the function again one time in the future.

@Azel,

just d/l'd 2.0.10, and got an error starting dvd2kvcd.

Line1223:
RunWait, "D:\\DVD2SVCD\\\D2K\\AutXtra.exe" *clipboard

Error: Unable to run program. (Ensure that backslashes \ have been used properly).

Nice Work with the new version Azel :lol:

I just made a 150 min kvcd with no troubles, tad bit slow though(took 12 hrs for encoding alone!!), but i'm try settings Dialhot explains next time.

Keep it up Azel, nice plugin!!

Hmm...it works for him, but not for me??

There must be something wrong with your PC :lol:

8O

that was "horrible".....means.....cool! 8)

:lol: :rotf:

LOL whatever is wrong i hope it stays that man!! :lol:

First time i got this thing to work

I'm not gonna try to give you advice dj cause cause probably know less than you on this subject, but maybe if stop using cqmatic, cause it was first i didn't try it with this plugin and it worked fine 8)

dvd2kvcd wont load, i get that error message which i posted above when i try to load it.

have to await Azels next beta i think...its weird, on some pc's it works , or others it doesnt, a few of my mates had similar prob.

^^ i noticed this bug, too. i solved it with just executing a former version of dvd2kvcd and let it extract all the files to the d2k-directory, and then replacing the old exe with the new one! that should work.
maybe you have to look at the d2k.ini, changing the link to cqmatic, but anything else should be fine!

Ok, i just downloaded the latest version on another PC, loaded up ok, but when i got to the BBMpeg part, it failed to find the mp2 file???

This is very weird, it doesnt work at all on my PC at home, but at my friends place it loads, but doesnt complete a conversion.

:roll:

Choose normal as audioencoder in DVD2KVCD menu. Maybe there are a bug when using HeadAC3he as audioencoder. Please post your log :wink:

The main point with this plugin was to make KVCD encoding easier. The plugin worked for some few users, and for other it screwed up a lot of things. So I started from the beginning again. I removed all functions like avisynth filters, etc. The only thing the plugin do, is to do prediction with CQMatic. Please report your results. If it seems to work, I add other fetures back again!

I call the new version DVD2KVCD lite 0.1

Once again, I do not recomand this plugin to convert avi's to KVCD. If you do, use DVD2SVCD's standard prediction.

Great, that's exactly what I needed :lol:
will give it a try tomorrow and will post my results then.

btw, my antivirus permanently warns me that your dvd2kvcd lite plugin is a trojan horse :!: :lol: lol?

I know this has been mentioned earlier by SS however he was referred to his earlier post... I have the same problem a black line at top & bottom and i have referred to the earlier posts and still can't see a solution.
Any suggestions gratefuly recieved...
