2006 Superbowl script

[U149113]

I have a Superbowl HD cap and want to do two things:


Make a standard MPEG2 DVD set, one with each half with 16:9 aspect intact
Make a high quality XVID to play on my Phillips 642 with 16:9 aspect intact


I need some help on the Avisynth piece for each of these. Right now I have processed the HD cap through HDTVtoMPEG2 and DGIndex. I have an .ac3 with -513ms delay. I will be using CCE Basic 2.6x for the Mpeg2/DVD piece and VirtualDub Mod for the XVID. Target size for the XVID is 4.7GB DVD. I still need to edit commercials out.

Any direction on how to write Avisynth's scripts for these would be greatly appreciated. Here is what I have right now based on some of the threads posted about the process.

#Delay the audio (according to delay given by DVD2AVI)
#audio = audio.DelayAudio(-0.513)

#Interleave the video and audio together.

source filters aside, try:

lanczosresize(720,480)
assumetff().separatefields().selectevery(4,0,3).weave()

then encode as interlaced (top field first!) xvid. this should play back nicely on your standalone.

Hey Mug, even if the source is 720p ?
