Hi I have 2 questions,

1) ive been encoding at a resolution of 576/324 pal 16:9 with a average bitrate of around 950, and after 22 succesful encodes im now having trouble with the compressibility check returning a rate of 0.002% and encoding results in several errors/warnings. surely no movie/episode is that compressable?. im running windows xp pro with a intel 4 1.8 processor

2) on some resolutions windows adds borders when the movie is played back even when the aspect/width/height is correct and the aspect error is 0.0%. the borders are not in the avi file. why does windows add borders and is there anyay to eliminate them.

i have searched the forum for answers to these questions and would be grateful for any help.

thanx to doom9 for its guides without which i would never have got started :)

ok log file follows

Please post a log file from one of these encodes so we can see what is going on, otherwise its like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Hi and welcome to the forums-

I may be able to answer the second question. Your resolution is no good. For 1.85:1 movies it should probably be 576x320. I don't think any guide told you to change the H-Modul to 4. I suggest returning it to the default 16. And maybe Doom9's Aspect Ratios Explained (http://www.doom9.org/aspectratios.htm) would be helpful.

As for the first question, I have no idea. Maybe shorten the name from "24 episode 23_5_perc_D3_sDeIntrlc_SharpBicubic_576x324.stats" to "Ep23.stats". :) Perhaps you should post the .avs (but without the lines beginning with "#"). Wait till Mac gets back-he'll have the answer for sure.;)

Ok after several attempts at reinstalling the gordianknot software and getting numerous errors and crashes i decided to completely reinstall my system, but gordianknot still refuses to play ball.
below is a log of the latest problem.

Hi-

Your first pass is crashing immediately. It could be a bad .avs (and I asked you before to post yours), or it could be something else. A search of I/O Error 103 turns up These Threads (http://forum.doom9.org/search.php?s=&action=showresults&searchid=357781&sortby=lastpost&sortorder=descending). You might read through some of them to see if any of the answers given apply in your situation.
