Scenarist Error importing XXX (Triple X)

[QProdukshuns2G1]

I've searched the forum for this error, but no results were applicable to my situation. If I have overlooked anything, please point me in the correct direction. Any and all help and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm using Scenarist v2.7.0.0241 and trying to import the movie XXX (Triple X) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0295701/

This is the end of the import log (I don't think the full log needs to be posted; if so please reply and I'll gladly post it)

as a no_cce part, its probably no video in it..(ie black screen or maybe a test picture still that isnt used)
whats likely happening is the ifo is describing it as 16_9, but its actually 4:3.. just double check the ratio in dvd2avi.. if its 4:3 then just change the ratio in dvdpatcher 16:9

or change the scenarist script to 4:3 for that clip

w00kiee, thank you very much for the response.

I checked the VTS14 in DVD2AVI, and you were correct, the aspect ratio was 4:3. I then opened the ReAuthorist.SCP file and searched for "VTS__14_P01-NO-CCE". The original part looked like this:

Item=Video
{
Place Holder=No
Comment=
Name=VTS14\VTS__14_P01-NO-CCE.16~9_1
Resolution=NTSC
Drop Type=Drop frame
Data Start Time=00:00:00:00
Data End Time=00:00:04:26

Width=720
Height=480
Is Encoded=Yes
Encode Type=MPEG 2
Size=720 x 480
Aspect Ratio=16 : 9
Picture Structure=Frame Structure
GOP Size=15 frames
GOP Structure=N/A
Bit rate=9800000
Average Bitrate=6000000
Minimum Bitrate=4000000

Icon Time=00:00:00:00
Line21 Switch1=Yes
Line21 File1=
Line21 Switch2=No
Line21 File2=
Chapter Breaks=List
{
}
}

I then replaced "16 : 9" with "4 : 3", so the end result looks like this:

Item=Video
{
Place Holder=No
Comment=
Name=VTS14\VTS__14_P01-NO-CCE.16~9_1
Resolution=NTSC
Drop Type=Drop frame

Aspect Ratio=4 : 3

Line21 Switch1=Yes
Line21 File1=
Line21 Switch2=No
Line21 File2=

{
}
}

After making the change in the file, the importing into Scenarist worked like it should, without any errors :D

Thank you very much for helping me solve my problem, you're another member which makes this forum so great. Thanks again.
