Scenarist errors, one with multiangle

[{misfits}]

Greetings :)
I have two errors that Im having trouble getting rid of, the first is dealing with a movie that has multiple angles the Error looks like this:

Start PTS of ILVUs in each angle are deferent. The encoding parameters should be same between angles. Interleave is failed. Dvd_ilv: Reconfig Vobset Tree Error. Terminated Interleaving.

hehe lovely use of grammar and spelling eh?

The second movie im having trouble with is giving me this error:

Error UploadFromDB failed. st<-1>
Error VTS Upload failed
Error DVD files could not be created

it seems to go through all of the muxing but my guess is that when it tries to create a new ifo it fails? i really have no clue how to fix either of these so any help in pointing me in the right direction is appreciated. If this is actually a really simple dvd authoring problem my apologies to the moderators for posting to the wrong section.

I guess that the reason for the first error is different lenght (number of frames must be the same for each angle) of your angles. They must be the same lenght, ratio, etc. (take a look into maunal ;)).

And to the second error - I have no idea :(.

[{misfits}]

well the frames is probably exactly right, I was having trouble with importing them into the track because the times werent exactly the same, the duration for the video on the main angle was 1 frame longer than the others so it threw off the duration. I simply entered the duration then in the settings for that file and proceeded to add the other angles to the stream and it accepted them just fine. The problem I suppose is that when i create my d2v file it has one more frame for the first angle than it does for the other 3, should I alter the .ecl file so that cce simply doesnt encode that frame or is that not a plausible solution? Thank you for your response :).

Is anyone else able to help on the other error?? :(

In my opinion this solution should work :). DVD2AVI is known to its "throw last frames away" feature :(.

Ok I got all of the angles to mux during the compilation sequence but now I get the same error I got on the other movie:
Error UploadFromDB failed. st<-1>
Error VTS Upload failed
Error DVD files could not be created

It seems like Im missing something essential that is causing this error becuase to me it appears like it's after its made all of the files and wants to create the .ifo's. Anyone with any sort of insight to this problem I would appreciate it greatly if you could help me resolve this. Thanks anyway if not :)

Once again I have received this error:
Info Reading Database for VTS<VTS_1>

Error UploadFromDB failed. st<-1>
Error VTS Upload failed
Error DVD files could not be created

I have no clue how to fix it. Ive tried many different tests to see what I can do to get rid of it but nothing has worked. Three different movies now, all give me that upon trying to compile the disc. Has anyone else ever seen this, and if so were you able to fix it? Help on this error is greatly appreciated.

This is a long shot.

I got some strange errors also once and my filesystem had crossed files. Just in case run chkdsk on your system to rule this out...

Ill give it a shot, i havent formatted this drive in awhile so it might be reasonable that something like that would work. Thanks for the tip.
Anyone else have some more ideas?

[{misfits}]

Ok I formatted and reinstalled and it still gives me that error. Im really at wits end with this error. I tried even more tests to see if I could narrow down the problem on my own to no avail. Thanks for the tip though.

Can anyone offere me some insight? :(

[influenza]

is this the complete error? Or can you scroll up and see more info?

[{misfits}]

I think I narrowed down the problem. I was up late trying to figure this out yet last night and it finally dawned on me to check the *.log files it creates and there it was. The video resolution was wrong and I think I know why as well. I was having trouble with the Telecide() and Decimate() default sections of the avs scripts that DIF4U created so I altered it to keep the 29.97 framerate and used VerticalReduceBy2() without fully knowing what it was doing. I only did this because it seemed like two many frames were being dropped and the video was choppy. It was slight but enough to annoy me. I looked for alternative ways to deinterlace the source for encoding and verticalreduceby2 seemed like it would help. So I guess my new question is, what is a good way to deinterlace without using telecide? or is there a way to manipulate the amount of frames telecide drops using parameters of decimate? lastly I was using an older version of DIF4U and I see the newest version has new script settings when it autodetects frame type so I am going to test these today and see what my results are as far as the video being choppy. Thanks guys for trying to help me. :)
