Hello, this is my first posting here on Doom9. I've searched, but cannot find an anwer to my problem.
My problem is this:
I'm doing a re-encode of a DVD that has abominable video-quality. To get the video-quality back to reasonable (good) quality i've created an Avisynth script, that i can "import" in the Filter Editor of DVD-RB.
Unfortunately, i had to use some very very slow filters and plugins in that script, resulting in a 3 fps speed. This slow speed is mostly caused by the use of FFT3Dfilter and HGRAGC. These are some of the slowest filters around, but after much experimenting, i came to these because it was the only way that the video gets back into shape.
The problem is as follows:
When i get DVD-RB past the Prepare-fase, with the addition of the AviSynth-script, and start the Encode-fase DVD-RB fails.
When encoding this happens:
During pass 1 of a 2-pass reencode, DVD-RB gives an error in the log that a .m2v file was not found, and that it will retry. It does retry, and after a while it doesnt find the m2v, and starts again . . . and so forth. Because of this i cannot get further than pass 1 of the first chapter, and cannot finish my project.
I think the problem is that DVD-RB tries to find a m2v-file after a certain amount of time has passed (as a check for a encoder-hang or something like that). But because of the very slow filters I had to use, this time is too short (CCE has not finished yet, and is still running).
Qustion: Is there some way to get DVD-RB to be "more patient" ? Let it wait for 12 hours or so (to be safe) before it checks if there is a .m2v ?
To end: I've got no problem with the encode taking a long time, so is the setting available somewhere ?
PS: V=1.09, encoder=CCE 2.70 [Trial]
