Nandub antifreeze

[Commonboy]

Does anyone know how this option works? I'm trying a first pass on a movie with frozen frames to get a stats file, but it always stops after it comes across the bad frame. So how am I suppose to get the second pass to work, with antifreeze enabled, without having the stats file from the first pass?

Also, the Avi-Defreezer program doesn't work with this particular movie I'm encoding, so I'm trying this way to fix the frozen frames unless someone has a better suggestion. The program just quits whenever I press the "defreeze" button for this PARTICULAR movie without doing any processing.

Anti-freeze is supposed to prevent frozen frames, not encode past them. (Not to mention that reencoding a rip is suicidal.)

So you mean the antifreeze is only good for playing through a bad movie with nandub without freezing? Then how do I fix frozen frames with nandub? Also, I don't see any problems in re-encoding a rip since I barely notice any visual discrepencies between the encoded and the original or is there something else you're trying to tell me? I'm re-encoding a rip so I can shrink it down to a size burnable on a 700MB CD-R.

the frozenframefinder vdub-mp3 works better, vdub and nandub always crashed here...

afaik they all just look for the frozen frames
you have to fix them with avidefreezer


though you may have to join audio and video again, cause avidefreezer sometimes trashs the audio...

1. find the frames with vdub-mp3
2. find the keyframes before and after them (the buggy ones)
3. put these frames into avidefreezer
4. look if your target avi got sound

if not continue:

5. open your original video and export the audio to wav
6. open your fixed video and add the wav.audio
7. save as avi

i have try with success this technique :


i had a raw video in mpeg4 v2 but with a lot of badframe wich cause vdub/nandub crash randomly.

well to get rid of this shit, try this :

1. open in virtual dub your movie with badframe
2. start the frame server
3. launch Tmpeg and load the frame server
4. reencode in mpeg1/2 with the resolution you want (i'm using full res usualy , 720x480 =). in a VBR mode (2pass & CQ_VBR work) and with a high bitrate (min=2000, max=8000, average=4000....)
5. reencode your mpeg2 stream with DVD2AVI etc...

well, that's work fine for me (with a lot of badframes, sometimes during 3 or 4sec (+75frames bad))

take some times, yeah :/
