I'm looking forward to try your new divx script who seems great, at least what I've read :D Maybe you'll get some more question about aviS. 2.5x, I have'nt tried it out yet :? so be prepered :twisted:

//Wolfi

I combined girv and DialHot script with lanczos resize:

Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max =8,variance=0.3,seed=5823)
ATC(1,2,4,0.5,false)
TemporalSoften(2,7,7,3,2)
Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max =10,variance=0.5,seed=5823)
lanczosresize(720,272).addborders(0,104,0,104)

And got great results! Very sharp but not oversharp. Most dancing blocks gone! Great! All be using this for all DivX sources now!

Hey, you just removed undot from my script and didn't even quote my name beside girv's. You are a cheater :mnkypile:

Oh, sorry DialHot!

Just edited and fixed! I am loving this thread! Thanks DialHot and girv for such amazing results! Much better than the stuff I was using before.

Ok guys i just tried this script

with the same cq(70) as a movie i encoded last week with the motionAdaptive script and my results seem to be a lot better wiht the motion script?

The picture is a lot sharper and i seem to get less of the dancing blocks(can someone point these out to me somewhere because i don't know if i'm looking for the right thing)with the otimal script.

Now in short everyone is getting better results with the scripts in this thread except me and i can't figure it out.

The script is better for removing defaults introduced by former avi compression : uggly blocks in flat uniform colored area that are generaly in the background (walls, dark areas, dancing lights...)

Depending the quality of your source, it's possible that you don't have any of these defaults present in the avi, so you don't see the benefit :-)

BTW, don't you have a sample smaller with this script than with the MA one ? That mean that the final CQ for the complete movie will be upper, and so the quality better.

Note: did you copy/paste your script or just type it by hand ? Because it's full of errors and can't run like this :!:

@ Dialhot

Thanx for the reply

first off it is a very clean avi,also i figured it would be a different cq but i just loaded the avs into tmpge and hit start.

also about the script i did copy and paste but it kind of got screwed up but could you please point out all the errors :D .(it did run in tmpge no problem)

Thanx

Simple : in the two "blockbuster" lines, the opening parenthesis is missing (between "blockbuster" and "method")

PS: Ontario ? So the power is back again tonight ? ;-)

Thanx Dialot,yea that was just an error on my part but the opening parenthesis are in my script.

We got our power back as of 3 pm Friday (we were powerless for just over 23 hours)it was horrible the temperatures were in the high 80's but i guess it could have been a lot worse.

Thanx again

I just would like to announce that I added the script I used to my DivX/DVD to KDVD/KSVCD using CCE/Tmpgenc Guide as the DivX suggested Script! Thanks Girv and DialHot!

I just need to make some questions clear for me :?

1. In this new script (this is such a noob question I'm to used with 2.0x), were should I write my resolution, I can only see this command :arrow: :!: m_width, 480, sould'nt it also be or whatever res. you want to use, so if I want 540x480 how should I write :?: :oops:

2. Should I use "Higher quality" or "Motion Estimate fast" or is "Motion Estimate" something you dont use with divx sources?

//Wolfi

WHERE DID YOU FIND THIS SCRIPT ???

The two firts parameters of gripcrop are the width and the height;
So you have to write Gripcrop(540,480,..........)

Note: seeing the script I'm quite sure that you have a line "m_width = 540" somewhere at the top of the script and you missed it !

Okej I found it in the DivX/DVD to KDVD/KSVCD guide. And now I can see what misstake I did. Sorry bothering you :!:

//Wolfi

Don't worry Wolfi, you're not boreing me. I was just surprised about this script I never seen before. That's all ;-)

@Dialhot
As I announced, I added this script to my guide as the DivX script. This is the complete version:

@Wolfi
There's no variable for height since it's always 480. Ok you could use 320x240, but that's not very likelly. Use High Quality, Motion Estimate is just for the MA script which I don't recommend with DivX sources.

I'm going to give it a try on an AVI tonight.

Okej that script is written for dvd2svcd right but if I want to use this script for avisynth v2.52 and tmpgenc should it look like this then. You'll have to tell me if I'm wrong :!:

Confused 8O

This part makes me SO CONFUSED :(
If I want to use this new divx script in tmpgenc and not dvd2svcd should I then replace the "gripCrop" line with this line if I want the resolution 540x480 :arrow:
god help me out....

//Wolfi

Wolfi, the line
is tied to an other line in the top of the script that you missed !
That is the line to modify if you want to use the script correctly.

In fact you can either write
Or a shorter (and less confusing) way :
And you can use this directly in tmpgenc.

Note: you missed also the line where "myoverscan" is defined. Look at the top the original script of vmesquita carrefully.

Then I will try again :P

Now I have four questions :roll:

1. Can you see errors in the script or is the whole structure wrong :?:

2. I need VSFilter to be able to add subtitles right :?:

4. Can you tell me if these .dll files are the only ones I need: MPEG2Dec3.dll, Blockbuster.dll, atc.dll, VSFilter.dll and ASharp.dll. Or do I need ASharp.dll :?:

3. What differences is it between "false" and "true" :?:

//Wolfi

Yes I do :-)

It's not AVISource("C:\movie.avi,false") but AVISource("C:\movie.avi",false)

Yes.

As you can see, "asharp" is never used in the script so you do not need to load the corresponding dll

The same than between "black" and "white", or "day" and "night" :-))
Can you be more precise in your question ?

[/i]

wooo, fame at last :D

Oke now then :)
I've seen false in I think every script and also true. I dont actually know how to be more precise. Is these two commands like YES or NO or something. I dont know what I'm looking for here...these two words comes up every were, aspecially false :idea:

//Wolfi

@wolfi: yes "true" and "false" mean much the same as "yes" and "no".

eg: a parameter might be called "enable high quality mode", then
"true" => yes, enable high quality mode
"false" => no, dont enable high quality mode

Hope thats clear?

Juppz all clear :) Thank for helping me getting started with aviS. v2.52 :lol: I love to see this script in action :twisted:

//Wolfi

Where's the complete guide? I'd like to check it out. You never know what you can learn. :D

http://www.kvcd.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5142&start=0 I think :idea:

//Wolfi

OK the guide says to use avisynth 2.5 which I have. I thought Blockbuster was removed from 2.5? So i saw the sticky about how to load 2.0 plugins in 2.5 and i get Am I missing something?

incognito,

Blockbuster is an external avisynth filter. There is a 2.5 version. Please download the filters pack in the thread of guide.
This error is happening because 2.0x plugins only accepct YUY2 input, not YU12() which is Avisynth 2.5 native colorspace. This would also work:
converttoyuy2().blockbuster(...)
But it is better to use the 2.5x blockbuster.

Vmesquita

Thanks.

since i`m using svcd resolution should i edit the svcd resolution like this?
one for pal and one for ntsc?

Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max =8,variance=0.3,seed=5823)
ATC(2,3,5,0.5,false)
TemporalSoften(2,7,7,3,2)
Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max =10,variance=0.5,seed=5823)
GripCrop(480, 480/576+0+0, overscan=1, source_anamorphic=false, dest_anamorphic=false)
GripSize(resizer="LanczosResize")
DCTFilter(1,1,1,1,1,1,0.5,0)
GripBorders()

@Payasa

Yes!

Vmesquita

In this new script, what do you think of adding DCTFilter or STMfilter :?:

//Wolfi

STMedianFilter is useless as ATC does the same job.
But I use to add DCT in the end of the script, but I confess I do this more because I do it for all my scripts than because it's really usefull ;-)

hehe :lol: Can you tell me how your DCTfilter line looks please :) And a few questions about DVTfilter :arrow:

1.Will DCTfilter make the final output size smaler?

2. How will it effect the quality?

//Wolfi

Yes, that is why I always use it.

It has no effect on the quality, that is why I always use it. :-D

DCTFilter(1,1,1,1,1,1,0.5,0)

This script with CQMatic rocks. Thanks.

How would be the final script for divx sources? thanks guys...

EDIT: It's possible that would be this that i have post after?

I'm confused, in the dll section if I use gripcrop, is not necessary to load GripFit_YV12.dll?

thanks a lot...

Yes it is necessary. But the best way is to put ALL plugins into the "plugins" directory of avs2.52 and you won't need any loadplugin line at all !

ok, thanks dialhot...

Only another question, is not necessary undot() and Limiter, in this script that i have posted?

thanks again...
