can I splice and decomb in one go?

[lancer]

Iit possible to decomb a splice using an avisynth script?

I have two files about 2GB each. (I'm on win98 you see because my capture card don't work under 2000 so I am stuck with the 2gb avi limitation) however by frameserving to tmpgenc I can get round big interim files to produce a good sized mpg file.

so I have these two files. capture 1 and capture 2.

I could run a splice in avisynth to make them one file in virtualdub but because of win98 I can't make them one file, they'd be too big. however I can frameserve direct to tmpgenc. but I want to make them progressive as well. is there any way I can run the decomb filter in a script at the same time as the splice filter?

my script would be like this.

a = OpenDMLSource("side1 capture.avi")
b = OpenDMLSource("side2 capture.avi")

AlignedSplice(a, b)

LoadPlugin("decomblegacy.dll")
AVISource("side1 capture.avi")
ConvertToYUY2()
Telecide()
Decimate(cycle=15)

I know the splice is okay because it displays fine in virtualdub, but can AVISource be altered to allow the decomb to reference both files and splice and decomb in one go?

thanks

How about using:


LoadPlugin("decomblegacy.dll")
a = OpenDMLSource("side1 capture.avi")
b = OpenDMLSource("side2 capture.avi")
AlignedSplice(a, b)
ConvertToYUY2()
Telecide()
Decimate(cycle=15)


Doesn't that work?

superb. problem solved and how.

cool. with it being a two hour feature it effectively puts the pause for the second splice, parts 3 and 4 bang in the middle of the film so it will look like a layer change when it pauses to access the second mpeg file.

thanks a lot.
