Hey All,
My apologies in advance if this information is in a thread or guide that I have missed, but I am having trouble getting dif4u to retain manually set AVS info for a given VTS/PGC.
In working on a backup of an NTSC DVD of ER, I initially had very little trouble and the dif4u AutoDetect Video type worked perfectly. As a result I didn't pay too much attention to what dif4u was tagging the video as and how it was framserving the source. Now I've encountered two discs that have some episodes (PGC's) that are picked up as Interlaced NTSC TFF with not a Progressive frame in sight and other ep's/PGC's with varying progressive/NTSC percentages... For example:
(15:09:42) Analyzing Video...
(15:09:48) Total Odd / Even = 998 / 1 = Odd/Top/A dominant and 0.00% progressive
(15:09:48) Flag found at position 257
(15:09:48) Diagnose Field Order = 2
(15:09:48) Analyzing Video... Header Flag= "Interlaced/TFF" Analysis= "Interlaced/TFF"
(15:09:48) File to rename= VTS_01_PGC_03_1 - 0xE0 - Video - MPEG-2 - 720x480 (NTSC) - 16~9 - Letterboxed.M2V
(15:09:48) vid= 0, pgc= 03, ang= 1, vob= _0, cel= 01_ darloc= 16~9
(15:09:48) Rename to= VTS__01_P03.I-TFF.16~9_1.M2V
(15:09:48) renerr= 183 vobid= 0 sub= 0 y= 3
(15:09:48) Creating .scc for Closed Captioning in PGC 3
(15:11:03) Using DVD Decrypter to Demux VTS 01 PGC 04 ANGLE 01
(15:14:19) Finished Processing VTS 01 PGC 04 ANGLE 01

(15:14:19) Analyzing Video...
(15:14:25) Total Odd / Even = 1002 / 0 = Odd/Top/A dominant and 66.27% progressive
(15:14:25) Flag found at position 257
(15:14:25) Diagnose Field Order = 2
(15:14:25) Analyzing Video... Header Flag= "Interlaced/TFF" Analysis= "66.27% Progressive/TFF"
(15:14:25) File to rename= VTS_01_PGC_04_1 - 0xE0 - Video - MPEG-2 - 720x480 (NTSC) - 16~9 - Letterboxed.M2V
(15:14:25) vid= 0, pgc= 04, ang= 1, vob= _0, cel= 01_ darloc= 16~9
(15:14:25) Rename to= VTS__01_P04.P.16~9_1.M2V
Now, Autodetect on these leaves me with some pretty nasty output as dif4u seems to only want to use fielddeint in that way. And, when I try and manually set the switches for one PGC or VTS and then move on to the next one, the former switch loses its setting and nothing is added to the avs file on generation.
I"m sorry if this is a touch incompotent, but I really could use a hand.
