I continue to have problems with 1080i OTA programs on PBS, British sourced (i.e. mystery, spy programs), when I attempt to use mrestore or Srestore on them.

Script is as follows:

LoadPlugin("...DGDecode.dll")
LoadPlugin("...mt_masktools.dll")
mpeg2source("F:\movie.d2v")
crop(248,8,-240,0)
bob()
Srestore()
Spline36Resize(704,576)
coverttoyuy2()

Using an old version of CCE.

Let's say I have an hour-long program. I process the video. When it is completed and I review it, after about 40 minutes, I get a black screen on every frame. Again and again -- the video is perfect up to approximately 40 minutes, give or take, and everything past that point comes out solid black. If I cut the original file in half and process the first and second halves separately, then join them together, I have no problem.

This happened when I used mrestore. I changed to Srestore, but it is about the same. I increased my virtual memory, which was too low. It did not fix the problem. Is something in masktools causing this?

Any suggestions as to what might be the problem here? I have no problems with other scripts, converting/reencoding 1080i to 480i or converting/reencoding 1080i to 480p.

What filter would you suggest as an alternative to Srestore for restoring 25p framerate?
