Hello,
Sometimes I get missing frames in my recordings and I wanted to track this down, so I wrote a utility.
How to use it;
-Download the test DVD, capture it into your capture device (DVD recorder or computer capture card).
-For a harder test, record the DVD onto VHS, then capture from the VHS.
-Modify the analysis script to open your captured video file
-Play the script. When it's done, there will be a timecodes.txt file created
-Load this file into an Excel compatible spreadsheet.
-Open the analyze.xls spreadsheet. Then copy the columns from the last step into it.
-The Results area at the top of the spreadsheet now shows you the video analysis.
Alternatively, you can step through the analyze.avs script as it's being played, some info is displayed onscreen as well.
More to come, but the old version is available at

for now. Some people found the instructions confusing, so I'm going to make it more accessible.
