Hello

I tried importing an HD-DVD compliant .264 file (which I encoded from a VC1 using mainconcept h264 encoder) into scenarist ACA. Oddly enough, it complains that the software that decodes the file is not installed on my machine even tho when I try importing the file into scenarist *SCA* - it imports fine. it also plays using directshow.

Does anyone know how to import it properly?

I have the same problem, and with a CineVision encoded .264 file, it worked great.

Interesting. Can CineVision encode at 23.976 with "pulldown" flags?

I tried encoding with Cinevision 1.2, but it keeps crashing when it reaches the "Encoding" phase (after Preparing and Investigating).

I tried avisynth scripts input as well as huffyuv avi input.

Any idea?

Edit: I managed encoding with CineVision, but Scenarist ACA still complains about the file ;/
