Color problem, it looks like I'm encoding 3D from 2D source

what could be the cause of this error? Could the height of the resolution cause this?

Here is the avs file,
DGDecode_mpeg2source("C:\Users\Desktop\DVD TEST\VTS_01_2.d2v", info=3)

crop( 0, 6, 0, -12)

LanczosResize(720,462) # Lanczos (Sharp)

I don't know what this problem is call so, will really appreciate if you could at least give me a clue to what kind of problem I'm facing.

EDIT: alright, seems like the height caused it because I just tried 464 and it worked without this problem. Is there any way to use 462 without having this problem?


Thanks

It's better that your source is mod16 (29*16 = 464). I'd leave it at 464: You'll never tell the difference in an extra 2 pixels.

yea it's hard to tell the difference unless there is another different resolution to compare with. Thx

Regarding the screenshot - where did you get that from? Whats the decoding software and -chain?

[Sagekilla]

It should be fairly obvious that the decoder is through DGDecode. I don't think this is a problem with the decoder, since he's getting this after resizing. If changing from _Resize(w, 462) -> _Resize(w, 464) solved his issue, then it's not the decoder.

that's coz the vertical res is only mod 2. most encoders need atleast mod 4 res (some, even more...).

[MKVCrazy]

yea all videos that don't have a resolution not divisible by 4 show up like this. Bad color. I still don't know how to solve it.

if you want mod2 and the encoder you use needs mod4, there's no way around it, than using another encoder that supports mod2. ;)

[Sharktooth]

the solution is simple: resize or overcrop to at least mod4.
