Avisynth + TMPG = Invalid Video source

[MickeyNBK]

Please help me.

I'm trying to convert a 3 disc Pal SVCD of Spiderman to an NTSC dvd.

I'm using Avisynth beta 6, TMPG 2.54b, DVD2AVI 1.85.

When attempting to open Spidey.avs in TMPG I get the error "Invalid video source".

Using the wizard in TMPG I select DVD NTSC, then for video file I attempt to open Spidey.avs. I then get the error message.

Spidey.avs:
LoadPlugin("C:\1perfect dvd\mpeg2dec\MPEG2DEC.dll")
Mpeg2source("C:\Spidey\spidey.d2v")
AssumeFPS(23.976)
BicubicResize(720,480,0.00,0.75)
AddBorders(0,60,0,60)
ResampleAudio(44100)

Spiderman1 -3 are the mpgs straight from the SVCDs.

I am able to open spide.avs in Microsoft Media player and it plays fine and look to be the right aspect ratio.

This is my first attempt at using avisynth so forgive me if I'm making a stupid newbie mistake. Also I have installed and uninstalled avisynth.

Why the AddBorders() ? You end up with a 720x600 video instead of 720x480 as it should be. And I don't think ResampleAudio(44100) is necessary for TMPG. You'll have to treat audio separately (dont forget to slow it down by a factor of 25/23.976).

Thanks that fixed it.
