First time encoding outside AutoGK and VirtualDubMod crashes on me :(

The situation is that I have a HDTV recording as .ts and I am following this guide: http://www.samek.neostrada.pl/hdtv/hdtv2xvid.htm

First issue: When I have created the .avs it says in the guide that I can try to run it in my media player. It plays OK, but the movies is filled with green blocks all over

Doesn't look right to me, or?
Content of .avs:
Loadplugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\MPEG2Dec3.dll")
Loadplugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Decomb521.dll")
Loadplugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\UnDot.dll")
mpeg2source("D:\KingManon\Movies\ROTK\dvd2avi.d2v")
SelectEven()
Decimate()
crop(0,140,0,-140)
UnDot()

Second issue: Well, I continue to VirtualDubMod with my .avs. I set up what needs changing and start the first pass. It runs to about 30% then crashes as it reaches frame 6505! Crashes meaning that the VirtualDubMod running program simply disappears from the screen! If I open the .avs in VirtualDubMod and fast forward to fram 6505 the same thing happens. What could possibly be wrong?

Hi!

Regarding your efforts with, I believe, "Lord of the Rings - Return of the King":

1) Have you played the transport stream that you created, to see if it exhibits the same behavior?

2) Does the original source material, that you used to create the transport stream, exhibit the same behavior?

Regarding both questions, no nothing as such. If I play the ts all is fine, no greens only when played with the .avs.

And yes, it's a return of the king recording :-)

Newer versions of avisynth (2.5.7+) and Virtualdub give the actual crash error, rather than simply disappearing. A compatibility issue with SP2 and video tools apparently.

Neuron2 would probably be interested in your stream, but only if you're using the latest version of dgdecode - mpeg2dec3 is full of bugs. In fact the whole AutoGK package of plugins is out-of-date, many have fixes in newer versions.
