Resize error when running AVS script in MeGUI 0.3.1.1011

[sstong]

When running an AVS script in MeGUI 0.3.1.1011, I got this error:

"Source image too small for this resize method, Width=0, Support = 4"

Script:
DirectShowSource("C:\sample3.mkv")
AddBorders(0,88,0,88)
Lanczos4Resize(1280,720)

Resolution of sample3.mkv is 1280 x 544

How can I resize this movie to 1280 x 720? Aim here is to resize sample3.mkv for AVCHD compatibility.

Thanks.

you don't need to resize! try:

DirectShowSource("C:\sample3.mkv")
AddBorders(0,88,0,88)

now you have 1280x(544+88+88=720) what you need...

hmmm... Now I get a different error message!

"The file C:\sample3.mkv cannot be opened.
Please make sure it's a valid AviSynth script and that AviSynth is properly installed."

How do I ensure that my installation is correctly done?

Installed:
ffdshow_rev2639_20090127_clsid
Avisynth_258
yuvcodecs-1.2
Xvid-1.2.1-04122008

Am I missing something?

Thanks.

haali splitter?

How is haali splitter different from FFDSHOW?

How is haali splitter different from FFDSHOW?

ffdshow in this context will function as a decoder (but it does more than that)

Haali media splitter is required to to split the video & audio to feed into a suitable decoder in directshow filter graph. You won't be able to use DirectShowSource() in your .avs script without it (or a comparable splitter) for your .mkv

"The file C:\sample3.mkv ....


You tried to load the actual mkv file. Not the avisynth script. That's why it's not working.

able to resize clip after installing haali splitter. Thanks.

Hello,

I have the same problem and make the same script

DirectShowSource("G:\BLURAYDISC\l age de glace 2.mkv")
AddBorders(0, 16, 0, 16, $000000)

I use is with MeGUI but the target MKV is very small because the bitrate was reduce (7276 -> 700 Kbps).

How can I apply my script to keep the same video quality ?

Thanks

The script and encoder settings are independent. You want to change the encoder settings to a higher bitrate, or a lower quantization factor (i.e. adjust the number in the profile)
