Green frame on second frame of d2v?

Hey, neuron2, I just noticed this recently.

I am using the version of DGindex that ships with MeGUI's autoupdate (1.5.2)

When I load the m2v file from this thread:
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...10#post1174310

And load a simple script like this:
Quote:
DGDecode_mpeg2source("C:\Documents and Settings\****\Desktop\VTS_01_1.demuxed.d2v",info=3)
If I load that script into virtual dub and step through the first couple frames, I get a green frame with a black dot in the right hand corner. Can you replicate this?

The rest of the clip is fine, but the 2nd frame is just...green.

The M2V seems corrupted, DGIndex throws me a warning near the end of the process (and I have the green franme too).

Yes, I get that to. However, is that what is causing the green frame? I wish I knew where the field order transition took place.

It's a bad stream. What's to explain?

When you correct the field order transition it shows you the location.

Ah, okay. I thought that was the case, it's just that I had seen this somewhere else recently, but that was a corrupted stream as well.

But is this okay? Chances are that he created that stream using the cutting mechanism of DGindex and demux. Shouldn't this produce a valid file? Or am I wrong?

Chances are?!

If you can produce a problem doing it, please make a thread about it. You're right, cutting with DGIndex should not produce a stream like that.

Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate your trouble reports and the useful feedback you've given me in the past!

Okay, I will try and make some tests of my own. I haven't seen any problems except for other peoples files, so it could be just their fault.

Edit:

Okay, I can confirm the green frame bug. At least, for what I understand it to be.

To reproduce, take a vob. Any will do, I used the same vob available in my "Really messed up Anime source. CHALLENGE!!" thread.

Use the selectors to create a region in the middle somewhere, doesn't matter.

Save and demux. Now, the d2v created here works fine. So delete this.

Load the newly created example.demuxed.m2v into dgindex and save a new d2v.

Load using just this:
Quote:
DGDecode_Mpeg2source("example.demuxed.d2v")
Drop the script into Vdub, and you should encounter a green frame on one of the first couple frames.

I just ran into it myself today. I'll try to figure out what's happening this evening.

My workaround: freezeframe(1,1,0)

I never doubted you.

I had a copy of the source laying around at work, so I had a look. I found and fixed the problem and will release the fix tonight. I want to add a few other things as well as long as I'm making a release.

The problem was that I start processing the file once to count the number of leading B frames and then again to start the main indexing. But I started demuxing at the start of the first processing, so I ended up demuxing an extra partial copy of the first GOP. Now I start the demuxing before the main indexing pass begins.

Thank you for pointing this out.

Good to know that you were able to pinpoint the bug so fast! I look forward to the next version with eagerness then!
