Avisynth and Tmpgenc work together?

[mikehg]

I recently tried using avisynth with Tmpg and I can read the scripts okay, but the video has alot of artifacts. A lot of greenish colors around edges and color blotching. It looks like it's downsampling the color badly.
A simple script I tried was:

loadplugin("c:\mpeg2dec.dll")
mpeg2source("c:\video.d2v")

I also tried a divx file with the same results:

directshowsource("c:\video.divx")

The above avs scripts view fine in bsplayer and vdub.
Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks,
Mike H.

I had the same problem. It seems you have to supply an RGB video to TMPGEnc. It wouldn't work right with my Avisynth scripts without adding ConvertToRGB() to the end. Don't forget the parentheses. If you leave them out you get major speed loss.

Thanks, worked great using ConvertToRgb()

Of course this was probably about the only option I hadn't tried :)

Take care,
