Thick Green Line on Right

[ZZZERO]

After I run my vobs through dgindex I see a thick green line on the right side of the picture when I load the d2v file. It's not there when I use the dgindex slider to view the picture, but when I load the d2v file with avs script creator there's a think green line on the ride side on the picture. What is this line, and how can I get rid of it? The line is there in the final mp4 encode. The DVD source is Interlaced PAL.

"avs script creator" is nothing to do with any of my tools, so I can't help you with that. If this happens when you serve the video with MPEG2Source(), then post a sample of your unprocessed source stream and give me the exact Avisynth script.

It appears that the thick green bar on the right edge of the picture is not related to dgindex because when I open the vob directly with vdubmod the green bar is there. When I play the vob with any software dvd player the bar is not there. So the bar doesn't appear when you play the movie but does appear when you try to open the vob(s) for encoding. Have you any ideas even though it is not related to your software?

Post a sample of your unprocessed source VOB.

While cutting a piece of the vob for you I figured out what is causing the green bar. The main track of the DVD begins with a 24 second introduction that is in 720X576 resolution. Then when the movie itself starts 24 seconds into the main track it changes to 704X576 resolution. The green bar must be filling in the extra pixels since the encode can't handle the abrupt change in resolution. I will rerip without that 24 second intro. I expect that will solve the problem.

Hi!

May I ask how you managed to create one .VOB file from your DVD that contains two different resolutions?

[ZZZERO]

I just ripped it off the dvd with DVD Decrypter. That's how it already was. It also goes back to 720X576 resolution for the last couple minutes where they tack on some ads for other movies. I'm cutting that out of the new rip also.

It's not unheard of. Your solution is correct.

Little bit of necro posting here. I have the same problem with the green strobing bar on the right side.

Old movie, the original bambi so it probably has some none standard resolution change.

So the solution is to cut the intro but what is the way to do this directly to the vob files without encoding it all over again.

Plus if I clip the video I am sure its really going to mess up the audio so I have to make sure I keep it all in sync some how.

Any assistance is appreciated.

Both problems (the current one and the original one from a year ago) are probably caused by having different titles in the same VTS (the same Vobset). The solution is to decrypt only the title you want, without the intro, the ads, or anything else extraneous to the main movie. Use DVDDecrypter in IFO Mode rather than the default File Mode and choose the title you want. With the DVD already on the hard drive separate out the main movie using PGCDemux set up to 'Create a PGC VOB'. I think these are decryption problems and not DGIndex problems.

Or, use the [ and ] buttons of DGIndex to isolate just the movie, without the intro.
