Divx5enc error!!! Predicted size is 0

[X-Nemesis]

Why am I getting this error?

Encoding with Divx5.02



LoadPlugin("G:\PROGRA~1\GORDIA~1\mpeg2dec3.dll")

mpeg2source("D:\Vobs\13 Days.d2v")

trim(0,249779)

crop(0,2,720,468)

LanczosResize(640,336)

Impossible to tell from just looking at the .avs.

First, check to see if the video stream is valid. Can you open the .avs in Vdub and scroll around?

Second, be sure the codec is working properly. Is DivX 5.0.2 still properly installed? (Can you choose it as a compression option in Vdub? If you choose it, do you see results in the output window when Vdub is in full processing mode?)

Then, supply more info. Which release of DivX5Enc? Can you paste the log results?

etc.

Hi-

Based on my limited knowledge of jonny's program, it's the mpeg2dec3.dll in the top line of the .avs that's causing the trouble. jonny's compress test adds the SelectRangeEvery(280,14) line to the script, but mpeg2dec3.dll doesn't support that.

So, use either mpeg2dec2.dll or mpeg2dec.dll in your script for the compress test, before switching back to mpeg2dec3.dll for the encoding. But since you don't seem to be using any of special features of the mpeg2dec3.dll, you might as well stick with mpeg2dec2.dll.

But all of what I just said becomes instantly wrong if you're using AviSynth 2.5. :)

@X-Nemesis:

If you obtain "Predicted size is 0", means that DivX5Enc have read the log file, but the sum of the frame sizes is 0 (or there are no frames in the log).
I've updated my signature :D, please use always a detailed way to report problems, in this way you can have a faster response in less messages.

@manono:
The latest versions of mpeg2dec3.dll support SelectRangeEvery, so can be used with no problems ;) (of course avisynth2.5 is required)

And I think he's not using AviSynth 2.5, but the 2.07 version included in GKnot 0.27.

[hakko504]

And the very newly (1h ago) released v2.08 does also have selectrangeevery included. I recommend installing that if he wants to continue using AviSynth2.0x and not make the switch to v2.5

The latest versions of mpeg2dec3.dll support SelectRangeEvery, so can be used with no problems (of course avisynth2.5 is required)

Autocorrection :D, latest versions of avisynth2.5 support SelectRangeEvery :rolleyes:

(thanks for the news hakko! i'm going to download!)

[hakko504]

Don't forget v2.51 (equally newreleased today) too when you dl!

@jonny

Always interesting to see your new avatar signatures. I see wip there and I see wip in Enc, but I can't figure it out. Wanna enlighten me? :)

[jonny]

wip = work in progress :)

@hakko: my AviSynth set is full updated now ;)

(i hope X-Nemesis put some response soon, or this will became the biggest OT thread in the story :D)

[jonny]

Problem solved (PMing).
DivX5Enc is still bug free :D
