i wanted to re-encode some old 1400mb divx 3.11 low motion movies to 700MB divx 5.1.5 using gknot. the files have too many bad frames and dint work on vdub even after scanning and removing the bad frames on vdub.

first of all everything opens fine in gknot but when i tried saving or previewing it, gave me an error saying the source is not yuv2. so i tried to convert the source to huffyuv & only then realised the filesize+time problems ..

after that i tried to use avs to open the avi and using ConvertToYUY2 but then it gives an error decompressing audio stream.. mebe im bad at avisynth scripting ..

AVISource("D:\VIDEO\GoodBadUgly_part1.avi")
ConvertToYUY2()

well ive never used gknot to re-encode any avi whether it be div3 or divx5. well i did try opening a div5 file and saving it and din have any problems.

well before do anything else i wanted to know how to normally re-encode avi(divx) to avi(divx) using gknot ?

...the files have too many bad frames and dint (sic) work on vdub even after scanning and removing the bad frames on vdub...Then GKnot will not solve your problem, since it is merely a wrapper for Vdub(mod) and AviSynth.

To eliminate the audio track, either add a KillAudio() filter to your script, or change the first line to read:AVISource("D:\VIDEO\GoodBadUgly_part1.avi",audio=false)I recommend returning to your source DVD. You will likely not like the results of reencoding, even if you ever get around your bad frame problem.
