View Full Version : Instant Copy - flashing artifacts

I just converted "My Sassy Girl" (a Korean movie) with Instant Copy at about 60% quality. Everything looks great, except towards the end in one scene.

Artifacts pop up as small, flashing blocks and it continues for a few seconds. I've tried re-encoding but it still shows up. This isn't on the original DVD; I tried it with DVDShrink and the artifacts aren't there, but the quality of the movie isn't as good as Instant Copy.

This is off the hard drive, so it isn't the media that's the problem.

Anyone else notice something similar or know a fix?

Here's a shot of what I'm talking about...

What's weird is that when I pause in PowerDVD and go forward frame by frame, the blocks show - but if i go back frame by frame, they're no longer there. :confused:

These blocks show in both PowerDVD and standalone players...

Could you extract the one chapter where these problems occur (e.g. with smartripper) and send it to me? I would like to do some tests.
Please send me a private message, thanks!
