Help!!! (rc4)

[dvd2svcd]

I can see what you mean in your first question, I will have to think it through, maybe it can be avoided.

But the second question I don't see any problems with this line:

2=AddBorders(16,(576-^th_value)/2,16,(576-^th_value)/2)

Which is changed to

AddBorders(16,(576-##)/2,16,(576-##)/2)

Where ## is your chosen value is fully acceptable in an Avisynth Script.


But why you don't use dvd2svcd internal values is beyond me.

[seewen]

the line

1=LanczosResize(^tw_value,^th_value)
2=AddBorders(16,(576-^th_value)/2,16,(576-^th_value)/2)

Works 1/2 ;). When you open DVD2SVCD and choose this script, the values are ok. But if you try to change the ^th_value @line 1, it's not updated @line 2( and it's the same parameter ). You see what I mean ? (sorry for my poor english)

--

I read somewhere that FitCD values where more precises than the automatic one from DVD2SVCD... And i read @ other places the opposite ... ;)

That's why i wanted to test by myself. And before the 1.1.0 build 1, I had to "edit the Avisynth Script". But with the really-nice-new-version it's possible to make an AVS script, and thus no more need to stop the process. That's why i wanted to try other's value that the internal one ;)

Thank for the answer.

[dvd2svcd]

@seewen: Ok I understand. Well, I cannot spand same parametername and value on more than one line except if you do like this:

0=th_value=^th_value
1=LanczosResize(^tw_value,th_value)
2=AddBorders(16,(576-th_value)/2,16,(576-th_value)/2)

You see, I create an avisynth variabled called th_value which I the use in multiple lines. Neat isn't it ;)


Unfortunately I found a bug in my avisynth script parser that destroys the above. But which I have fixed here.

H0p3 U c4n w8 ;) Nevermind, I just tried again and this time with huge success :) However, users will have to manually change the progressive/zigzag and select interlaceresize if they want to maintain the aspect ratio for those anamorphic dvds. I will add how-to in the Q&A when I release the new dvd2svcd.

You are absolutely right. Sorry, i didn't thought about it enough before posting.. :/ sorry.

And in fact, it works very well if you add "()" :

0=th_value=(^th_value)



Thank you dvd2svcd

Thank you dvd2svcd Well, it was not an apparent solution but it is a good solution ;)

[X5-452]

I noticed a few bugs related to I-author in beta4 and older versions.

When I select tmpgenc as encoder and I-author as disc image program. DVD2SVCD then tries to convert the pictures with tmpgenc and gives an error (probably because I-author does it's own conversion).
And the second error is that when I select Finalize with cdmage. It opens the cd image and after that nothing happens. Also sometimes it doesn't open Cdmage at all, but my windows clock instead.

These are both some small things, but it would be cool to see them fixed.

Thank you very much for such a cool tool!

[dvd2svcd]

This is kind of funny, is everybody mindreaders? I have just fixed the first you mention and I'm currently testing the second problem :D


EditThe second problem is fixed now too.

[dvd2svcd]

Release Candidate 1, good luck :D

@ dvd2svcd
using Unfilter...

first: thanks to new rc1!
;) :D

second: "i do this"..just like your tutorial:

---------------------------------------------------------------
[AVISYNTH_BicubicResize with Unfilter]
0=BicubicResize(^TargetWidth,^TargetHeight,^b_value,^c_value)
1=AddBorders(0,^BorderTop,0,^BorderBottom)
2=LoadPlugin(!unfilter.dll)
3=Unfilter(^x_value,^y_value)
^b_value=0.0
^c_value=0.6
!Unfilter.dll=C:\Arquivos de programas\DVD2SVCD110b1b3\UnFilter\UnFilter.dll
^x_value=15
^y_value=15
-----------------------------------------------------------------

right?:)

thanks again master!:D :D

[dvd2svcd]

Thanks.

Yes, the unfilter script looks right.

edit: i guess it's only on that screenshot that i showed, because of the extra comments you added to the newbies :)

[The eDealer]

Hi DVD2SVCD,
am a tall fan of D2S. :)
The Roba Methode functions super om my system.
Now I would test the new version of D2S but the link for the RC 1 does not function unfortunately. :eek:
Can you fix it ?? :rolleyes:

[mrbass]

@edealer...it works just fine ..just tested it..perhaps it was down temporarily.

About Tab in RC1...Donation, DVD2SVCD Q&A, DVD2SVCD Forum nothing comes up when I click on them. Tried on two separate computers (home/work).

Ok redid (exact thing happened in b4 as did RC1) Scooby Doo and using frame selection continues to only make one cd image. I'm unchecking the option in Misc "Don't delete any files" and also I define folders in "define folder structure". The .mpv is the full video and cuts properly at start frame and end frame. BBMPEG only muxed one .mpg and thus vcdxbuild only builds one bin .cue.

See the logs... and it shows you only one .bin .cue
gonna attach it...18KB

I've got the same problem with WIndtalkers (i've used "Use frame selection"). It should make 2 Cue/Bin, but VCDxBUILDER build only the first one. But the "pulldown_encoded_NTSC.mpv" is OK (1.34Go).


And another thing. I don't know if it's normal, but in CCE advance-sttings, under GOP one can read "M" and "M/N" . And if i look directly in CCE, i see "M" and "N/M" ;-) .
Good Night

[The eDealer]

So, now I have the new Version, thanks to mrbass :rolleyes:

But the Preview brings up the Massage:
"Access violation at address 00000000. Read of address 00000000"
:confused:
No Picture ist shown.

And same message (Access violation at address 00000000. Read of address 00000000)when I select the "Use frame selektion"!

With the pre22 befor everything works fine, so I dont think it's a System or Memo Prob. ?!

[dvd2svcd]

@Bass
Don't click.... Double click and ye shall see.

Anybody here with the same probs as eDealer ?

[mrbass]

Hey my dvd2svcd.ini file is at work. But it's in that logs.zip file some moderator has to approve to show the attachment. You can find it there.

Well I tried double clicking about tab and still same thing happens. Browser opens up but it's blank as can be.
Alright I'm almost 100% positive it won't work if one has IE6SP1 installed. No idea why IE is trying to pop-up when Nestcape is my default browser...very clever MS.
Please mod...approve attach...even I can't dl it.

[Josh]

I think it would be cool to add to the conversion tab where it says "Go!" a convert option (without rip and convert, just start at convert). I know it's preferred to use internal routines, but there are some movies that you need to rip first to get the correct audio stream. That way, DVD2SVCD won't re-rip a movie that's already ripped to your hard drive and take up more of your hard drive. That's my suggestion, and thanks for the great work! Looking forward to the next release.

[arlsair]

I have the same probs like eDealer. Testet with the "Frame selection" function. Here is my message: "EAccessViolation Access violation at address 00000009. Read of address FFFFFFFF".

Probably it is a specific german problem ;)

this can already be done.. just uncheck the Activate DVD Ripping in the DVD Rip page and it won't re-rip the movie to your harddrive.

Also DVD2SVCD keep up the great work this release is nice.. Love the avisynth stuff in it..

[dvd2svcd]

@Bass: I just checked the Attachment Queue and it is empty. And I just tried the about tab links and I'm not sure what the problem is because all 4 links works when dbl clicked. Strange.

@eDealer and arlsair: I'd like to get your dvd2svcd.ini files too.

[arlsair]

Alright, I attachted it.

[dvd2svcd]

@arlsair: What is mpeg2dec3.dll I don't recall that that ever was in my bundle or supported for that matter. Is this a special build of your own ?

[arlsair]

Ups, sorry, it is the Mpeg2Dec PostProcessing Mod by Marc FD (version beta 6). An Extension of the Mpeg2Dec2. See here http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?threadid=34253.
I tried it again with the same options and now Mpeg2Dec2, it works. In Pre22 the Mpeg2Dec3 worked, so it is/was standard for me. Sorry again.

IMO eDealer use also the Mpeg2Dec3

[dvd2svcd]

Ok, as long as I know what it is. I'll try it out here to, maybe I can get dec3 to work too, but I don't gurantee it.

[arlsair]

Thanks, that would be nice.
I tested a workaround sucessful: I choose the Mpeg2Dec2 in D2S, start conversion and make chances in the frame selection window. Then I edit the avisynth script and chance the Mpeg Decoder.

Btw I want to thank you for work

[Boulder]

I had a similar problem as eDealer. The process crashed after DVD2AVI had finished with the same error message. I believe that it happened because I didn't uninstall the previous version (1.0.9 build 3) before installing the new one (that was beta 3). Uninstalling and then reinstalling solved the problem.

[idbirch2]

Is it just me or does that download link not work?
It opens a blank window. Right click and Save As... gives an error.html
I would really like to get hold of this RC, can anyone who has downloaded it up it somewhere??

Cheers

[dvd2svcd]

It works properly here. Don't copy the link location, just click it.

[dvd2svcd]

There's a bug if you use Frameselection with cdoverlapping. Please disable cd overlapping if you're going to use Frameselection.

[edwinver]

@idbirch2

You might want to check your firewall if the download-link doesn't work
;)

[badbert]

NOW I GET IT!! LOL At first I was a little disappointed with the latest betas. I thought you had eliminated sharpen and temporal smoother. Then yesterday I logged on and saw the Database sticky...Like a truck hitting me I realised what I had misunderstood....This is without a doubt the coolest thing you have ever done for DVD2SVCD!! Hats off to you @DVD2SVCD keep up the great work!! You are a true genius....

[idbirch2]

Sorry lads, i managed to get it to work - it is there. I recently installed Gozilla 3.5 which can't actually open itself at the moment (bloody worked yesterday) and is trying to steal the link.
Held the old Ctrl down, clicked and Bingo!

Apologies for my more than passing resemblence to a retard!

Cheers :p

Anywaaays, RC2 is in the first post (just an exe update)

Fixes:
1. The Frameselection/CD Overlapping bug.
2. You can use Marc FD's mpeg2dec.dll too now, but important do not override the original mpeg2dec.dll or you will break the preview and frameselection options.

[kydongau]

I found that on RC1 reloading the project for recovery disabling the selection of avsync scripts. Is this a feature? or is it fixed in RC2?

[dvd2svcd]

Let's call it a feature.

[furado]

About the new feature "Use frame selection"

I probe whith 2 movies using 2 disc
and I cut not exactly on middle of the movie,
but I see that is the same SVCDInfo.txt on both discs
and it is not correct because the first disc has
more minutes that the second and differect bitrate, etc.

Other is that I choose on CD Image creation the option DVD chapters
but on both disk when I see the movie and use PBC not start
on DVD chapters.

I expect help you whith my test.

Unless you have a good reason for it, I find the design is inconsistent.

[arlsair]

DVD2SVCD, you are the greatest. Thanks a lot.

I have a now request for the Mpeg2Dec3: The spezial is that you can tune the mpegsource line. It would be cool when I can edit this line like the rest of the avisynth script. Or is there then a problem with inserting the VOB names automatically ?
When i can insert the blend=false videoencoding is for me 5 to 10 percent faster and that is quite nice.

First you ask, is it a feature and then you go ask if it has been fixed as if you just know that it's a bug. Hence my reaction to your post.

But, just to settle this matter I'll just consider it the usual language barrier from now on and to stop this from getting out of hand (because I'm a hothead too) I'll just make it so that you'll also have the other avisynth scripts when reloading a project.

[The eDealer]

Hi DVD2SVCD,
many thanks for the RC2 with mpeg2dec3.dll support.
You did a great work :D
