How to get the Picture to Not Stretch During the Encode?

[incognito]

Can one of the pros look at this script and tell me what I need to do to get the picture to NOT stretch during the encode.

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MovieStacker\Filters\25\MPEG2Dec3.dll") 
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MovieStacker\Filters\25\STMedianFilter.dll") 
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MovieStacker\Filters\25\GripFit_YV12.dll") 
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MovieStacker\Filters\25\loadpluginex2.dll") 
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MovieStacker\Filters\25\DustV5.dll") 
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MovieStacker\Filters\25\UnFilter.dll") 


AviSource("G:\Ripps\Current\Movie.avi", false)

Limiter() 
UnFilter(50, 50) 
GripCrop(480, 480, source_anamorphic=false) 
GripSize(resizer="BicubicResize") 
STMedianFilter(8, 32, 0, 0) 
ConverttoYUY2() 
SpaceDust() 
MergeChroma(blur(1.5)) 
MergeLuma(blur(0.2)) 
GripBorders() 
Limiter()

I have a feeling that I'm missing something here.

Unless your source is actually anamorphic it is not your script that is the problem but what you are choosing as the Video Arrange Method in TMPGenc.

Can I manually set up TMPGEnc to encode to KVCD? I thought ToK and all the other tools helped to set up TMPGEnc to do the encode. How do I configure TMPGEnc manually??

Hi:

Sorry, but now I am confused I was under the impression that if the source is anamorphic, then your script should also show that, and the line:

Quote:

GripCrop(480, 480, source_anamorphic=false)

should actually read:
(GripCrop(480, 480, source_anamorphic=true)
Could someone clarify this for me?

Thanks

Edit: This is reference to KVCD MPG-1

Yes, I believe the line should read: GripCrop(480, 480, source_anamorphic=true )

Thanks kwag.

The default for GripFit is anamorphic=true, so it is not necessary to define the parameter if the source is anamorphic.

first of all, let me just say "HI" to everyone who reads this, since this is my first post on this forum! I've been coming here for a while now, and I've learned a lot from what's been posted. This is truly a great place

so then, on to my question -

if using GripCrop(, , source_anamorphic=true )

will I then achive the same as when I, in tmpgenc, pick "source aspect ratio - 1:1" ? (I use that setting whenever the source don't have a standard aspect ratio, since as I've understood it that's the way to go)

oh I just thought of another thing I've been unable to figure out even though I've searched the forum and reading the avisynth manual (guess I've just missed it...)
How do I, when using a script, get the "Video arrange method": Full Screen (keep aspect ratio) that I use in tmpgenc?

thanks in advance for any thoughts about this
