View Full Version : Trouble using LBkiller: invalid arguments to Trim()

Hi,

I have an MPEG2 encoded video that I want to clean up. It has some dirt and spots on the video that I want to get rid of. I looked around for a program to do this and the only one that I found that seemed to do it was LBkiller (http://esby.free.fr/)

I followed the instructions, and did about a minutes worth of cleanup (this is a 2 hour movie) and then I exported the Avisynth script. I tried loading the script into tmpgenc, cce, and virtuadub and everytime I get this error:

Script error: invalid arguments to function "trim"
(F:\Storm edit test\stormavs.avs, line 33)
(F:\Storm edit test\stormavs.avs, line 145)
(F:\Storm edit test\stormavs.avs, line 171)

Also, since LBkiller wanted an AVI, I used vfapiconv to make it into a fake avi and then I loaded it into virtualdub and frame served it to LBkiller. I tried to get it to an AVI but the file was so big I couldn't do it that way. I want to make it look exactly the same as the MPEG2 without losing anything. Also I used the deinterlace filter in virtualdub as I was frameserving. The source was encoded progressive originally.

heres the script that LBkiller generates:

Thank you for any help you can provide, or any suggestions on a better way to clean up the video frame by frame.

My recommendation is to start with AviSynth, and use DGMPGDec to load the MPEG2 file
http://neuron2.net/dgmpgdec/dgmpgdec.html

As for the script, Trim() (http://avisynth.org/mediawiki/Trim) is trying to use a user variable called "pos" that you haven't set.

ps post a 1 min sample, we might be able to help

pos is a function parameter!

The problem in the script is because function ReplaceFrameFromBmpDown returns a void value which is assigned to 'clip'.

Simple solution is to remove the line
clip = clip.ReplaceFrameFromBmpDown(641,"F:\storm edit test\1.vdr.00641.png")
but then that image won't be processed.

Or perhaps it should be using one of the other functions. Or you should provide an appropriate body for ReplaceFrameFromBmpDown.
