[desmo8]

hallo everybody

i've problem with mpg files. if i try to frameserve a mpg file the media player or cce shows me a wrong play time. for example the movie is 50min, but i'll get only 25min.

this is my script:

-------
LoadPlugin("c:\program files\avisynth 2.5\plugins\mpeg2dec3.dll")
MPEGSource("d:\mymovie.mpg", -2, "raw")
ConvertToYUY2()
LoadPlugin("c:\program files\avisynth 2.5\plugins\simpleresize.dll")
SimpleResize(720,480)
AddAudio()
-------

may somebody is able to help.
thanks for all feedback

Just out of interest, why load MPEG2Dec3.dll and then use MPEGDecoder.dll?

[desmo8]

okay, i don't need the mpeg2dec3.dll, but the result is still the same :(

I had this happen to me when using segmented AVIs. I never discovered a way to fix it.

I created a new AVI (lossless HUFF) with smaller spanning points and it worked for some reason. Not that that really helps you...

Does that also happen when using mpeg2dec3?
If so, could you upload (a part of the) mpg file somewhere?

[desmo8]

i can do that, but i don't think that my mpeg movie is crap. i've tried with different mpegs and the result is still the same.

i've also notified that if i use:

- DirectShowSource("d:\moviex.mpg",fps=29.97)

instead of "mpegsource" or the "mpeg2dec3" dec, avisynth doesn't create a d2v-file and the playtime is okay. or is dvd2avi that create this d2v-file? but dvd2avi wasn't started... i don't have this problem with mpeg2 streams.

thanks

Yes, it's dvd2avi which makes the d2v. Just load the mpeg2 file in dvd2avi (demux audio if necessary) and make a d2v file. Import this in AviSynth:

mpeg2souce("c:\file.d2v")

[desmo8]

this means, if i load a mpeg1 with "mpegsource" or the "mpeg2dec3.dll plug-in" dvd2avi (just installed, but not running) will nevertheless create a crap d2v file?
