Hi,

I'm using avisynth to serve a dvd to nero recode. the main reason being the audio is low and i can sort that with ac3filter and directshow source.

the only problem is, when i open the *.avs in nero, it sees the res 720*576 and thinks it a 5:4 source. I was hoping to get nero to do its own cropping and resizing but it wont work properly if is doesnt know the DAR of the source.

I'm using dgdecode and mpeg2source for input.

Is there a way so preserve the DAR flag so that other apps read it?

Thanks

Neil

AVIsynth doesn't keep any DAR information in its processing. You'll either have to do the cropping and resizing yourself in AVISynth or force Nero Recode to use a specific DAR (I don't know if that's possible, I don't use it).

Hm, the last time I used Nero I didn't see anything of setting a DAR (just plaine resize and crop). My method is to set the flag when remuxing in mkv (I'm not sure if you can do this for mp4 since I never use it, but if the file is meant to be played on PC than you can use mkv without problems). As for amplifying the audio, I always use Belight just on the audio for downsmixing, normalizing etc, and muxing at the end. I think it's easier this way.
