Why am I getting ConvertToYUY2() in DVD2SVCD?

[telemike]

This is my D2SRoBa.avs file:


LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\DVD2SVCD\AVISYN~1.5PL\Mpeg2dec\MPEG2D~1.DLL")
mpeg2source("D:\dvd\Temp\DVD2AV~1.D2V")
BicubicResize(480,360,0.0,0.6)
Undot()
Asharp(1, 4)
STMedianFilter(8, 32, 0, 0 )
Temporalsoften(2,3,3,mode=2,scenechange=6)
AddBorders(0,60,0,60)
ConvertToYUY2()
Import("D:\dvd\Temp\ResampleAudio.avs")
ResampleAudio(44100)
SelectRangeEvery(1500,15)


I thought we were working in YV12 and not YUY2? I am confused. Is there something wrong?

Best to see the CCE faq in rb's signature for the explanation.

You always WANT that statement in the script at the end because (see the faq) CCE must have a conversion done by it or a codec like ffVFW or Divx. The internal conversion command is the best and fastest way to do this. This is covered extensively in many areas of the forum and in the CCE faq.

Even so, there seems to be a possible bug in the new colorspace dropdown box under advanced. Even if no conversion is selected (for people that just have to prove it to themselves and a few other odd situations), I think the converttoyuy2() statement is still being added.

Yes, it *is* still being added.
Is there any possibility that this will be fixed somewhen?
I know that multiple ConvertToYUY2 statements don't slow you down etc..., I've read all the threads concerning this.
But with AviSynth 2.5, there's a speed increase when doing ConvertToYUY2 at the end, instead of doing it directly after AviSource. And that's exactly what I'd need.

BTW: If I use "Edit as part of video encoding" to get rid of that ConvertToYUY2 line, I have trouble when using D2SRoba. CCE always chrashes when I use D2SRoba with "Edit as part of video encoding" for some reason I don't know...
If I remove that line via "Edit as part of video encoding" while doing a "normal" 4-pass encode, everything works fine. :confused:
