Problem with Some AutoGK conversions

[nstocke]

I have several files that I have not been able to convert to XVID format. I'm not sure what the problem is. Some of my captured shows work fine but a couple have the following error:

Error Message:

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

As it says in the first few lines, your source image is too small. According to that, you will need to capture at a higher resolution.

I would have assumed the same thing. My files are 720X480. My capture card can't capture any higher and many of the other files have worked okay. I've also set the fixed width for the conversion to 720 but I still get the error.

Certainly 720 x 480 isn't too small, then. If you can recreate the error, please post the entire log file, enclosed in Code tags and kindly word-wrapped. You may also open a problematic file with GSpot and post a screenshot of the window after you've used the Render feature.

When you ask for the entire log file which file are you interested in? And its location? The file I posted earlier was the entire contents of the .AVS file that is in the "agk_.tmp" folder. The _.avs file is below.

LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\AutoGK\DGMPGDec\DGDecode.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\AutoGK\filters\autocrop.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\AutoGK\filters\ColorMatrix.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\AutoGK\filters\RemoveGrain.dll")

movie = mpeg2source("H:\SnapStream\Beyond TV\Daily\agk_tmp\The Bravados.d2v")
cropclip = autocrop(movie,mode=0,wmultof=4,hmultof=4,samples=10,aspect=0,threshold=34,samplestartframe=0,
leftadd=0,rightadd=0,topadd=0,bottomadd=0)
fixed_aspect = 0.888888888888889
c_width = width(cropclip)
c_height = round(height(cropclip) / fixed_aspect)
input_par = float(c_width)/float(c_height)
out_width = 720
out_height = round(float(out_width) / input_par)
hmod = out_height - (floor(out_height / 16 ) * 16)
out_height = (hmod > 4) ? (out_height + (16 - hmod)) : (out_height - hmod)
new_aspect = (float(out_width) / float(out_height)) / fixed_aspect
autocrop(movie,mode=0,wmultof=4,hmultof=4,samples=10,aspect=new_aspect,threshold=34,
samplestartframe=0,leftadd=0,rightadd=0,topadd=0,bottomadd=0)
LanczosResize(out_width,out_height)
RemoveGrain(mode=2)
ColorMatrix("Rec.709->Rec.601",mmx=true,hints=false)

Sorry, I'm not sure if I got this formated the way I should. Not sure how to do the word wrap or if I got the code quote right.

Neal that's not the log file--the AGK log file ends in _agk.log and should be located in the same directory, and have the same name +_agk.log, as your output file (the .avi file).

Thanks for being patient.

I think this is the right one. I'm still not sure what I need to do for the word wrap.

Was that a successful encode? I don't see the error message.

Your "word wrap" would have to be manual - just place a line break (Enter/Return) at any point the text would create a scroll bar at the bottom of the window. It makes things much easier to read.

No this was an unsuccessful one. The error message appears on the screen. I haven't found it in any of the log files.

I figured out my problem. The .mpg files are the problem. The recordings themselves were messed up.

Thanks so much for the help.
