new to avisynth?

[graham23s]

i am a total newbie to avisynth i have spent a few days trying to learn it i don't want to do anything fancy like add subtitles or anything i simply want to encode in cce and for my authoring programs like maestro to accept the m2v file without giving me a "illegal picture resolution for dvd video(0xc10a000b)error

heres the avisynth i used

avisource("C:\Documents and Settings\Graham\Desktop\Moviez\Movie.avi")
BicubicResize(720,360)
AddBorders(0,104,0,104)
ResampleAudio(44100)

can anyone take a look at this and tell me where i'm going wrong

cheers

List version of avisynth and cce plus more detail so somebody can try to help you. The different versions have quite different and unusual interactions, so that info is absolutely crucial when asking for help about CCE and Avisynth.

Hi,

hm !
>"illegal picture resolution for dvd video(0xc10a000b)error
You´ve got this error after you´ve encoded the script you discribed, right ?

Let´s have a look at:

>BicubicResize(720,360)
>AddBorders(0,104,0,104)

720 is correct for the width but the height ?!??!
I never was very good in math but this is something like 1st grade :)
360+104+104=568 !!!!
That´s no valid DVD res !

Use either 720x576 for PAL or 720x480 for NTSC !

cheers for the reply guys

i am using avisynth the latest version 2.0.8 and cce version 2.67.00.13

when i tried to correct the resolution to pal using 720,576 cce gave me an error frame size 768,56 not supported supported frame size is up to 720,576 even though that is what i put in.

when i was downloading the executable file there was a zip folder aswell with a lot of notepad extensions should i put that in the plugin folder?
they are ccp and h file types.

Thanks

@graham23s,

What happens if you open the script

avisource("C:\Documents and Settings\Graham\Desktop\Moviez\Movie.avi")
BicubicResize(720,360)
AddBorders(0,108,0,108)
ResampleAudio(44100)

in vdub/vdubmod?

Could you move the movie to your root and try again:

avisource("C:\Movie.avi")
BicubicResize(720,360)
AddBorders(0,108,0,108)
ResampleAudio(44100)

[graham23s]

@breather i know it's one thing or another these days lol

@wilbert thanks for helping mate i moved the movie to my root to make it easier in the avisynth

i then put the movie into dvdmaestro and the same error occurs "illegal picture resolution for dvd video"
is there anything i could adjust to see if that will fix the resolution what does the error mean exactly is it bcos it's not pal or ntsc video specifications?

thanks

Graham

@graham23s:

Please try what Wilbert told you:
Open the AVS file with VirtualDub or VirtualDubMod.
If you´re able to move through the resized movie then AVISynth works like a charm and CCE might cause the problem.

To me this:
768,56
sounds pretty much like an AVISynth error message displayed instead of the Video content.

@ Darksoul71

thanks mate i did what wilbert said and opened the file in virtualdub it seems and plays fine no problems what does that narrow down the problem to now do you think

cheers

"cce gave me an error frame size 768,56 not supported supported frame size is up to 720,576"

I get the same error when I have typos in my script, the movie isn't in the location I have listed in the avisynth script, and when I have incorrect paramaters entered for certain plugins. So the generic error CCE gives out about size usually does not have anything to do with size.

hi guys

i edited my avisynth just took away a couple of line till i was left with this

avisource("C:\movie.avi")
BicubicResize(720,576)

cce accepted it with no errors but when i put it in my dvdmaestro application still illegal picture resolution

what could be up now?


cheers

Graham

guys

i don't wanna speak to soon but i think that i have fixed it i looked more on the forum and used a combination

AVIsource("C:\dvl-2f2f.avi")
BicubicResize(720,576)
ConvertToYUY2()
convertfps(25)

By knoxy - http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=58873

it now loads fine in dvd maestro and reeldvd

all i changed was the "576"from 300

thanks for all your input

Graham
