Dvd Rebuilder with Procoder problem

[Ghistho]

Using DVDRB Pro with Procoder 2. During encoding process Procoder opens, starts but doesn't work. I have this message: The convertion is stopping. This can take a few minutes. After many minutes, Procoder is freezing (no response) and Windows Xp close it with an error message.
Don't know how to solve this problem :(

Here the log:

When it opens again, does the encode re-start?

After long time I have to clic on STOP if I want to close the program. At this moment Procoder is freezing and Windows XP closes it with an error message.
When it is done, Procoder restarts with the same problems.

AVS Filters are enabled.

have you tested an avs in virtualdub(mod) ?

you need eclpro, I suppose you know

[jdobbs]

Post your REBUILDER.INI file. That will make debugging a lot easier. A good guess would be that there is a problem with the filter(s) you've added.

Doesn't Procoder require YUY2 input? Maybe that's the problem?

[Susana]

ConvertToYUY2=1

[stereo]

Yeah but doesn't the AVSFilter07=ConvertToYV12(Interlaced=True) override the ConvertToYUY2=1 line?

[jdobbs]

The ConvertToYV12 will actually do nothing, because the input from MPEG2Source will already be YV12. DVD-RB will add the ConvertToYUY2() after the the filters.

I don't know these filters so the problem could be anything. But the filters are making an assumption that the input is interlaced in more than one place. I'm not sure what affect that might have on a progressive source.

Also, make sure you don't have ProCoder (or ECLPRO) configured for outputing field oriented pictures -- I've heard that can be problematic.

@Gistho

What version of DVD-RB are you using? Judging by what I see it's a pretty old one... you really need to upgrade to the latest version (v1.10.9).

[Ghistho]

Hello,

I have updated Dvd Rebuilder but I still have the same problem with Procoder. I have done some backups in the past without any problem. Should I remove AVSFilter07=ConvertToYV12(Interlaced=True) from the avs filter ?

[jdobbs]

Remove all the filters. Then run DVD-RB. That will at least establish where the problem is.

My suspicion is that with that number of filters there's a high probablility there is a conflict somewhere...

Also, look in your ECLPRO INI file and make sure you don't have "AlwaysFrame=0" set.

[Ghistho]

Hello,

I still have the same problem with "AlwaysFrame=1" in ECLPRO INI.
I already did some backups correctly with this filter.

[Ghistho]

Could it be a source problem ?

[jdobbs]

Have you tried reinstalling ProCoder and ECLPRO. The problem is clearly within the encoder and its settings.

My desktop has Procoder2 with RB 1.09 till working fine

my laptop had procoder2 with rb 1.10.8 with procoder before it works somehow doesnt work anymore.

I have reinstalled Procoder and ECLPRO without results. :(

[jdobbs]

Have you removed the filters? It seems you refuse to do so, even though the probability is very high that the problem is there.

Until you do I can't help you.

[march2006]

I got my procoder2 working now.. I know what happened.. Dont include all filter that you dont need. Uninstall avisynth and deleted all plugin and keep a few as default and run again. Procoder2 will work. I got my procoder2 working great now
