Hi,
Just tried my 1st conversion using CQMatic, and i got problems.
After CQMatic finished prediction stage, a TMPGE error came up saying "Illegal Stream Error" , then i press OK, and TMPGE continues encoding, but then i notice the encoded film looks bad quality and colours are very blurry and dark?
Script;
AviSource("C:\**.avi")
BlindPP(cpu=4)
Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max =3,variance=0.1,seed=1)
Convolution3D(1, 6, 12, 6, 8, 2.8, 0)
GripCrop(480, 480, overscan=1, source_anamorphic=false)
GripSize(resizer="LanczosResize")
Undot()
TemporalSoften(2,7,7,3,2)
DctFilter(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0.5, 0)
GripBorders()
any help plz?
Thx

Crappy source and/or crappy installed codec.
Try first to update to the last Nic's Xvid codec and Divx5.05 (or 5.1.1). Then configure both of them to output YV12 (it is called "Enhanced YV mode" in divx5.11 if I remember well). That's the first step.
Note: if your last use of tmpgenc was throught DVD2SVCD remember to check is ReadAvs is still checked in VFAPI tab because D2S unchecks it !
Note: your problem is not tied to CQMATIC but it's a regular avi->kvcd problem.

Phil,
I've changed the script slightly and got a different error!!
Script;
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MovieStacker\Filters\MPEG2Dec3.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MovieStacker\Filters\Blockbuster.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MovieStacker\Filters\Convultion3D.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MovieStacker\Filters\Undot.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\DctFilter.dll")
AviSource("C:\",false)
BlindPP(cpu=4)
Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max =3,variance=0.1,seed=1)
Convolution3D(1, 6, 12, 6, 8, 2.8, 0)
LanczosResize(464, 334, 0, 0, 592, 320)
GripSize(resizer="LanczosResize")
Undot()
TemporalSoften(2,7,7,3,2)
DCTFilter(1,1,1,1,1,1,0.5,0)
#Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_ma x=10,variance=0.3,seed=5623)
AddBorders(8, 73, 8, 73)
Error;
MPEG2Dec3.dll is not an Avisynth 2.5 plugin.
I noticed on the avisynth filters page that there is a replacement for MPEG2Dec3.dll, saying something about it being buggy? not sure....

You don't need these lines with avs2.53. All plugins should be in the "plugin" directory of avisynth and then, all "loadplugin" lines are useless.
BTW, you are using filters delivered with MOviestacker, do you ? Because they are ALL avs2.08 ! That is certainly why you have that :

Phil,
I was just going through the Divx 5.0.5 Decoder configuration, and couldnt see a YV12 (Enhanced YV mode)....but i found YUV Extended Mode, is this similar? Should i check this?
And i also updated to Nics Xvid 16072003.

Just just destroyed the working of Gripfit!
You cant mix the conventional resizing methods with gripfit (well not like you did)
As Dialhot said. Be shure all mentioned codecs are onboard, also deinstall avs 2.0x which comes with moviestacker.
Reinstall avisynth to 2.53.
In the pluginsfolder there has to be also the mpg2dec3.dll plugin (warpenterprises) and also Gripfit_YV12.dll !
www.incredible.de.tf/Downloads/GripFit_YV12.rar
So be shure that you installed ONLY avs 2.5 plugins into the 2.5 Plugins folder.
PS: That's also another point I don't like in case of moviestacker.
Noobs do get it, ... installing it (incl. avs 2.0, ... getting in contact with newest avs 2.5 scripts trouble
Thats why in these days I do point on FitCD as its AVS vers. independend

Hi Incredible, Thanks for the reply.
I did wot u suggested, all .dll files were already in the avisynth 2.5 folder.
Something very mysterious also happened, i just tested the 1st script which i posted here, replacing this line;
LanczosResize(464, 334, 0, 0, 592, 320)
with this;
GripCrop(480, 480, overscan=1, source_anamorphic=false)
And the tmpge prediction started without any errors, but then i realised that i left the Aspect Ratio to: 4:3, so i cancelled the prediction, changed aspect ratio to 16:9, restarted the prediction and got an error, "Illegal Stream Format". So i changed Aspect Ratio: 4:3 again (which worked fine without any errors before), and this time it came up with same error again "Illegal Stream Format"?
I cant quite work out where i'm going wrong here?
When i press OK after the error, Tmpge starts doing the predictions, but each one lasting 10 seconds max, then it only encodes 240 frames, and stops encoding, then Tmgpe wizard window appears.
All i was doing was testing different scripts, and everything has gone pear shaped.
EDIT: Got it going eventually after uninstaling avisynth completely and reinstalling 2.5.3, but i did that 3 times, 3rd time lucky i suppose! is this a bug or something?

For that I use zoomplayer that allows to reach the configuration window (if there is one) for all codecs while you are watching the video !

Hi Phil, thx for the reply.
I checked for the codec while playing a film, and could only locate the Xvid in Player Options>Manual Filters, but there is an overide filter setting called "Extended VMR mode," but didnt make much difference..

same thing happened again with CQMatic, 1 day it works, next day it doesnt.
Each Predicition stage is taking 10 seconds, whereas when it usually works its 10 minutes for each predicition.
i'm not doing anything different when it worked before, i always load tmpge in CQMatic and script shows ok in tmpge before saving as text file.
Lost!

You MUST reset the cut editing EACH TIME YOU CHANGE THE SOURCE NAME.
That is because the filename of the last source used for cut edting is memorized that you need to reset it manually each time !
Before to save the project, go to advanced setting, source range, and reset the cut editing !
