CCE 2.5 frameserving from VirtualDub

[niz_se]

Hi!
I have a problem, when I try to convert DivX to SVCD.
I usually use TMPGenc, and it rarely fail, but because many people say that CCE is both faster and better quality, I want to try it out.

So, because the movie have to be resized, I tried to frameserve from VirtualDub, but CCE refuse to open the file.

I have installed the "handler" with AuxSetup.exe ande rebooted.
I have tried to use .VDR .AVI and .VDR.AVI for the file that VirtualDub makes.
I have tried to have the aviproxy ON and OFF

Every time I get the error message:

AVIfileOpen("C:\Film\Crossroads\cross.avi") : According to the registry, the type of file specified in AVIfileOpen does not have a handler to process it.

Because I use Win2k I have also enabled "Application Compatibility" and start up both CCE and VirtualDub with "Win 95 Compatibility layer".

What is there to do? I´m in a dead end here.
Please help!

I use:
Win 2000 Pro SP2
CCE SP 2.50.01.00
VirtualDub 1.4.10 (build 13870)

You can use Avisynth to link VirtualDub (frame server) and CCE:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/avisynth2/

And just write a little script(on Notepad):

AVISource("C:\Film\Crossroads\cross.vdr")
resampleaudio(44100)

Save it as .avs file and use CCE to open it. You're using CCE 2.5, and it can read avs file format...



P.S. Actually I had the same problem as yours (CCE didn't accept .vdr file), then I searched this forum and found that avisynth is a way to link them. However, once I read more and more about avisynth, I found that if you know how to write the script, you actually don't need VirtualDub.... now I'm doing all the resizing and filtering by avisynth only... :D
