Sceneaid: cant get fps from avs file

[IceM]

Hello,

Im trying to back-up a DVD using DoItFFU and SceneAid.
Im running Windows 2003 R2 on the computer that I assigned for the job (since its faster as my laptop), and because of that im having problems with the default utils diffu uses (mpeg2dec).

When I use the avs files diffu produdes all tools crash. When I open that avs file in vdub to check out the video, I see a green border on the left of the video, and if I scroll through the movie, vdub also crashes.

The solution I had in mind was to demux the video using the latest DMPGDEC (which works fine) and use the dll provided by dmpgdec to make the right avs file. That works.

BatchCCE also crashes, but creating my own settings in CCE is not that difficult, so the movie is also encoded correctly.

Now, when I open SceneAid to scan the demux directory, I get the following error:

UNKNOWN Framerate reported by AVSFileInfo... Check if theres an error in the AVS
FATAL ERROR - CAN'T GET FRAMES OR FPS FROM AVS FILE !!!!!!

Is there any solution for this?

Edit:

Maby the hardware specs depend on this.
CPU: Intel C2D E6600
OS: Windows 2003 R2 32Bit
Mem: 2GB DDR2

If you open the AVS files up in media player what does it tell you?

Sounds like there are still problems with the decoder

If I open it in mediaplayer classic etc, it plays just fine.
After adding ChangeFPS(29.970) in the avs file scenaid doesnt give the error any more.
(29.970 is the correct bitrate ...). Still weird though.

If you look in the scenaid.log file there should be a few lines that tell you what it found for that asset as far as bitrate / frames / size.

Post that here (from the unmodified avs)

I think you mean the following:


* Valid Demux directory (IFO and AVS Found)
* Opening IFO And building layout
* Scanning for AVS Files and Processing
- Found Demux Method to be : P
- Checking Video File VTS__01_P01.P.16~9_1.AVS
- Identified as Asset : 01
- dwLength/dwRate/dwScale : 175415/30000/1001
* UNKNOWN Framerate reported by AVSFileInfo... Check if theres an error in the AVS
* FATAL ERROR - CAN'T GET FRAMES OR FPS FROM AVS FILE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Edit:

If I do the same with the modified avs file (so, with ChangeFPS(29.970)) it shows the following:

* Valid Demux directory (IFO and AVS Found)
* Opening IFO And building layout
* Scanning for AVS Files and Processing
- Found Demux Method to be : P
- Checking Video File VTS__01_P01.P.16~9_1.AVS
- Identified as Asset : 01
- dwLength/dwRate/dwScale : 175415/2997/100


Edit2:

And just to be sure its not my avisynth. Opening both the files (with and without the changefps) in media player classic gives me the following information on both files:
Video: YV12 720x480 29.97fps [Avisynth video #1]

P.S. Your website doesnt work properly, but I guess you already know that ...

[D3s7]

interesting... that's a new one for me

what versions of AVISynth and DMPGDEC. I know you said latest but specific versions so I can test...

[D3s7]

DGAVCDec 1.0.0 alpha 6 uses 3 digits after the decimal point to indicate FPS

well I'd say that right there is the cause of our problem...

[IceM]

Version info:
DGIndex 1.4.8
AviSynth 2.57, build: Dec 31 2006

I guess that confirms the 3 digit thing

[D3s7]

Yep...

I'm going on a business trip this week and If I get a second to get it ready, I'll see what I can do to fix this stuff while I'm gone
