Unfortunately, I must shut down this thread as well. VCD MASTER has been suspended for a month. I've left his links in here, as there may be some value in what he's trying to say, though he is apparently a poor communicator.

I hope he spends some time reading here, and gets to know this forum and its members, during his time off.

Additional comments on the capture guide must be posted in new threads.

The thread is reopened on my request. Valuable comments, suggestions, etc. are welcome again!

@Windows XP Pro users,

Do other users of 'Windows XP Pro' have the same problem as emazur?

If the .chm file issue is solved that would be nice, but as long as I'm here I have some criticisms of the guide
I'm following the "removal of chroma artifacts" section (using avisynth),
http://www.doom9.org/capture/chroma_artefacts.html
but find that it jumps around a bit, and doesn't "piece it all together" and provide a general example for eliminating the 3 main chroma artifacts as shown in the guide (12.1: chroma noise, 12.2: chroma shift, 12.3: rainbow/dotcrawls). And I'm unsure of the correct order of the usage.
In my case, I'm trying to convert near/lossloss avi to vcd mpg at the moment (also interested in high quality dvd mpg), using dvd2svcd. My thread in dvd2svcd forum is here:
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=83133
As mentioned in the thread I managed to piece together this script for avisynth. If it's good or flawed, I don't know:

0=Trim(2155,58642) ++ Trim(62784,74846) ++ Trim(78458,91135) ++ Trim(94732,115285) ++ Trim(118978,124282)
1=ChromaShift(C=-6)
2=GuavaComb(Mode = "NTSC", Recall = 75, MaxVariation = 25, Activation = 40)
3=PeachSmoother()
4=BicubicResize(^TargetWidth+^BorderLeft+^BorderRight,^TargetHeight+^BorderTop+^BorderBott
om,^b_value,^c_value)
^b_value=0.0
^c_value=0.6

Actually this was the original script I made, but for some reason the CNR2 function crashes CCE . Anyone know why and/or what I should do about it? If I open this avs in media player it plays OK


0=Trim(2155,58642) ++ Trim(62784,74846) ++ Trim(78458,91135) ++ Trim(94732,115285) ++ Trim(118978,124282)
1=Cnr2("xxx", 4, 5, 255)
2=ChromaShift(C=-6)
3=GuavaComb(Mode = "NTSC", Recall = 75, MaxVariation = 25, Activation = 40)
4=PeachSmoother()
5=BicubicResize(^TargetWidth+^BorderLeft+^BorderRight,^TargetHeight+^BorderTop+^BorderBott
om,^b_value,^c_value)
^b_value=0.0
^c_value=0.6

What version of CNR2 do you have? v2.61 is the only one working properly.

2.4, I got it from the author's page:
http://ziquash.chez.tiscali.fr/
I see avisynth.org has 2.61 linked on their external filters page, I'll try that later.

Also for anyone who's wondering my winxp is sp1. It's running quite nicely now, so I'm not looking to risk mucking it up with sp2.

What the guide says doesn't hurt; it should produce the same results. Separating the fields is just an unnecessary step.
Furthermore, most people probably do some spatial filtering too.

I suppose it would be nice if the guide mentioned the unfold/fold method or scharfis_brain's method. It seems like these questions have been coming up a lot recently...

Could ajordan's FixChromaBleeding function be included in the guide? It seems like a quick and easy way to automatically correct chroma shifts.

Also, SSIQ should be considered, it's a very good rainbow removal filter.

In the next version, would it be possible for the authors to update broken links in the 'references' sections ending each page for those who would like to read more in-depth?

The link in the post from VCD MASTER (link removed) now only points to some sponsored-links page advertising 'nude clebrity pics' and the like...
