CCE and avisynth

[Zodiacal]

how come CCE crashs about half way thru transcoding my mpeg2 to svcd? i use this in my .avs file:
DirectShowSource("c:\extract\mympg2file.mpg")

p.s. i just found out that directshowsource doesn't do audio...

is there a better way to do this? im looking to transcode my mpg2 (audio and video) into svcds with out spliting or remuxing?

I would use DVD2AVI to open the MPEG-2 file. It can extract the audio and video. Then, open the .d2v project created by DVD2AVI with GKnot, then use CCE to compress the video. Then, re-join the video with the audio using BBMpeg. Use VCDEasy to create an SVCD image and burn it with Nero.

This sounds like a long process and does involve remuxing. But I don't think you'll get past the process without remuxing the audio and video.

It'd work similar to this, but you wouldn't have to worry about ripping or re-compressing the audio:
