So what determines when the video gets adjusted?

Hi all, I have an issue with a movie and I hope someone can help me out. Please bear with me. Although I am not a video encoding noob I am not an expert either.

I have this DVD movie that I want to play in my portable device. Tech specs here. It is a 4:3 30fps movie.

I loaded it into meGUI and converted it to XviD using the following options:

profile: Unrestricted 2-pass Balanced
size: 640x480 resize to mod 16 autocrop
AVIsynth: minimal noise and spline36 filters

It encodes ok but when I try to play it in the portable player it stutters all the time. I don't have this problem with other movies I encoded with meGUI. I noticed that after encoding I get a 23.970fps video framerate instead of the original 30fps. Could that be the cause? If so how do I solve this problem?

Don't worry about audio or subtitles because I have these under control. My problem is the video stuttering.

Thanks in advance for the help.

that's why you chosen the wrong preset. if you look more carefully you will find there is a "2-pass Balanced (HomeTheatre)" preset. Use that instead.

Hello,

I'm trying to encode an AVI but strange things seem to be happening when I am in AVIsynth script creator. From within AVIsynth script creator I select the source file and the video preview window opens up - this looks fine. The number of frames for the AVI looks about what I would expect at 60 000 area. After I save the AVIsynth script, the video preview window refreshes but now the number of frames is significantly less, only showing about 2 000 frames. This isn't just an issue with the video preview window because when I run the queued jobs, it really is only doing the 2 000 frames.

I've never experienced this problem before. Somehow the majority of the frames are dropping off. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

My thanks,
MK

Hi sharktooth,

I don't know what to say here. It's plain jane. The only option I checked was 'clever anamorphic' and then save! After saving, the video preview window shows the reduced number of frames. It's actually no different than anything I have done for over a hundred re-encodes so no idea whats up here....

Sharktooth · 14th June 2009, 03:39

save the .avs and play it back on a directshow media player.
if it's still shorter than the source, then there is some problems in either the source or the decoder used by avisynth.
in both cases, not posting your .avs script, will not help to identify the problem.

MidKnight_1 · 14th June 2009, 06:19

I didn't know you could play avs files in the media player - I learn something new!

Yes, it is still shorter. It only appears to show the first 1 minute and 40 seconds. What I don't understand is that the source plays just fine, it's just this odd behaviour.

Here is the avs script....nothing special at all.

Code:

# Set DAR in encoder to 16 : 9. The following line is for automatic signalling
global MeGUI_darx = 16
global MeGUI_dary = 9
AVISource("C:\My Documents\Trading\DAX\DAX_20090415.avi", audio=false)
#deinterlace
#crop
#resize
#denoise

I'm not sure how to proceed here. Maybe I should just not do this one and keep it as the original AVI. All these logs are taking a lot of space though so would like to shrink them down with MKVs.

Sharktooth · 14th June 2009, 14:11

ok, it could be the decoder. AVISource uses VFW decoder instead of DirectShow. That means there could be differencies between the playback of the avi file in your player and the playback of the avisynth script.
you can try with DirectShowSource(".......") in place of AVISource and see if it fixes the problem.

Inspector.Gadget · 14th June 2009, 16:09

I've had a problem lately with neverending encodes when using a DGM file created by DGMPGDecNV and otherwise treated as usual with the AVS Script Creator and other MeGUI tools. This has occurred whether using XviD or x264, and what happens is an encode will hit 99%+ completion and then run indefinitely at some encoding rate while the file never gets bigger and the time remaining never decreases. Please find below links to everything relevant:

DGM File: http://pastebin.ca/1460029
AVS Script: http://pastebin.ca/1460031

That was the problem! Thank you!!!

MidKnight_1 · 15th June 2009, 01:26

Uggg...this is the re-encode from hell.

Using the directshowsource() worked great for the video but then the audio was still stopping just after the first 2000 odd frames. I extracted the stream from within VDub mod, pulled it into meGUI as the audio source and re-muxed. Almost there now....The one catch now is that the audio gets progressively out of sync. I have read through the search function of the forum that this is from an incorrect framerate used but I don't understand how to set this right. Is this in the muxing area? Or is this within the avisynth script?

My sincere thanks in advance,
MK

MidKnight_1 Registered User Join Date: May 2009 Posts: 5	Hello, I'm trying to encode an AVI but strange things seem to be happening when I am in AVIsynth script creator. From within AVIsynth script creator I select the source file and the video preview window opens up - this looks fine. The number of frames for the AVI looks about what I would expect at 60 000 area. After I save the AVIsynth script, the video preview window refreshes but now the number of frames is significantly less, only showing about 2 000 frames. This isn't just an issue with the video preview window because when I run the queued jobs, it really is only doing the 2 000 frames. I've never experienced this problem before. Somehow the majority of the frames are dropping off. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. My thanks, MK

After saving, the video preview window shows the reduced number of frames. It's actually no different than anything I have done for over a hundred re-encodes so no idea whats up here....

It only appears to show the first 1 minute and 40 seconds. What I don't understand is that the source plays just fine, it's just this odd behaviour. Here is the avs script....nothing special at all. Code: # Set DAR in encoder to 16 : 9. The following line is for automatic signalling global MeGUI_darx = 16 global MeGUI_dary = 9 AVISource("C:\My Documents\Trading\DAX\DAX_20090415.avi", audio=false) #deinterlace #crop #resize #denoise I'm not sure how to proceed here. Maybe I should just not do this one and keep it as the original AVI. All these logs are taking a lot of space though so would like to shrink them down with MKVs.

That means there could be differencies between the playback of the avi file in your player and the playback of the avisynth script. you can try with DirectShowSource(".......") in place of AVISource and see if it fixes the problem. __________________ MPEG-4 ASP Custom Matrices: EQM V1(old), EQM AutoGK Sharpmatrix (aka EQM V2), EQM V3HR (updated 01/10/2004), EQM V3LR, EQM V3ULR (updated 04/02/2005), EQM V3UHR (updated 17/12/2004) and EQM V3EHR (updated 05/10/2004) Info about my ASP matrices.

This has occurred whether using XviD or x264, and what happens is an encode will hit 99%+ completion and then run indefinitely at some encoding rate while the file never gets bigger and the time remaining never decreases. Please find below links to everything relevant: DGM File: http://pastebin.ca/1460029 AVS Script: http://pastebin.ca/1460031 MeGUI log: http://pastebin.ca/1460033

Using the directshowsource() worked great for the video but then the audio was still stopping just after the first 2000 odd frames. I extracted the stream from within VDub mod, pulled it into meGUI as the audio source and re-muxed. Almost there now....The one catch now is that the audio gets progressively out of sync. I have read through the search function of the forum that this is from an incorrect framerate used but I don't understand how to set this right. Is this in the muxing area? Or is this within the avisynth script? My sincere thanks in advance, MK
