video checksum error

[john2128]

I have been using dvd2svcd to convert avi2svcd but every so often I get an annoying error with some avi files and it is always the same.

CCE encoding failed: Error: Video checksum is differnet from that of the previous pass

Info
Current: checksum = 00106f16
Previous: checksum = 00ce8972

just wondering if there was a reasoning for it to do this maybe a setting I have wrong I am using cce 2.5

A CRC patch (not path as stated in the Q&A) is required.

Q+A Edited.
One day I'll get round to a thorough overhaul of that old thread.

One day...:)

thank you for the advice I loaded the patch and the file converted but now when I watch it, there is a constant stutter to the picture but not the audio. I recently changed from a 4 pass to a 1 and added D2sroba, Which I read in here as the recommended thing?

Unlikely to be anything yo do with D2SRoBa.
More likely the way the AVI was encoded.
Back to the stickies :)

I used virtual dub like the sticky said and created a new avi file then converted it and the same thing happens I even went back to 4 pass without d2sroba. It converts sucessfully and the audio is fine but there is a constant video shake or stutter through out. I guess it is the patch any ideas?

Sorry, it was this bit on jerky playback that I was meaning.

If you get an avisynth error "AVISource could not find a decompressor for ...." or you get jerky playback, as long as original file plays OK in Media Player, try this.

NB It only works with Avisynth 2.54 or later.

Open Avisynth.ini (you will find it in your D2S installation folder) in Notepad. Ensure DVD2SVCD is NOT running.

In the Global section of avisynth.ini, replace

AVIReader=AVISource(!filename,audio=false)

with

AVIReader=DirectShowSource(!filename,^framerate,audio=false)

and resave.

Now launch DVD2SVCD, load up your AVI and try a preview.
If it works, do a conversion.

I can not find the avisynhth.ini file I found one but ut was a bak file and did not have a gloval section with that in it?

[Nick]

The .bak file is a backup of avisynth.ini, which should be located in the same folder :confused:

However, if the backup file has no "global" section then neither would the original. Are you using a very old version of DVD2SVCD?

[john2128]

thanks again I installed a new version of dvd2svcd and found the file replaced it. Sucessfully converted the avi much faster using d2sr and 1 pass only now there are two files each saying they are 1hr27min when the original is 1hr27min it has split it in two and each file says they are that long but they do not stutter. I have not watched through each to time it but they should only be about 45 min each or so. In my settings I have it default where it should not split it on that file size?
