CCE seems to lock up

[Wildfire]

I'm using DVD Rebuilder Free v0.96 and CCE v2.67

Just now, DVD Rebuilder started on a new segment of an encode. Then CCE first does a first pass (pass 1/1). However, even though I see 98% CPU activity on CCTSP.EXE in the taskmanager, nothing seems to happen. In the CCE window, all counters remain as they are.

I can stop DVD Rebuilder and CCE quits without problems. When restarting the encode, CCE just sits there again.

It's the last part of the encode and I'd hate to have to do it all over again.

Does anyone have any idea at all what's going on here?

(if anyone needs additional info, like data from files, just say so, I'll copy & paste it...)

first off bud remove the picture - i have been slaped for such things (not the pic but what it refers too)

second i have had an issue similar to this seems its a timing issue/error in the avs, quite poss due to a gop or something (ye i know im not that technical) edit the trim value in the avs to go back a few frames and this should sort it out

I'm even less technical concerning the details of backing up DVDs. I have no clue at all how to do what you're suggesting. And even if I did, I'm afraid it would cause other issues.

You read the rules again?

Hmmmm, did you skip over Rule #6?

I now see the problem. And fixed it :)

Sorry for that.

goto the folder that you selected as the work folder, in there you will see loads of avs files (amounst others) open the offending avs - 3001 in this instant and look for trim in the file, edit it subtracting a few frames then try again :)

I'll try that. I think the offending part doesn't contain anything more than the end credits, so if anything goes wrong the movie itself will still be intact.

-- Edit: the file contains this line ->


trim(271015,272045)


Should I subtract from the first or second number, or both? And in case of both, should I make sure the total amount of frames stays the same?

-- Edit #2: I lowered both values by one frame. It's encoding now, after I do a rebuild I'll check how things have turned out.

-- Edit #3: It appears there is one more AVS file which CCE now freezes on. I'm going to try lowering the TRIM values of it by one frame.

-- Edit #4: the end tally is in, segments 7 and 8 had to have their AVS files adjusted. Segment 9 and 10 encoded right away, without adjustments. Now I need to check if the movie still looks/sounds okay...

-- Edit #5: I just watched some parts of the encode. Up until the end, lipsync is retained so I assume everything is just fine. Thanks for the help guys.
