Using AVS to serve an mpeg2 into CCE

[ritmo2k]

I have been out of the scene for some time now, but I used to use CCE for everything! I need to now convert some svcd's into vcd's. I tried serving in the mpeg2 into CCE but its not working? It just hangs. I play the avs in mplayer2 and it plays 1 frame every couple of minutes while the time scrolls on by...

I demultiplexed and therfor assumed:

DirectShowSource("C:\Decode\AVSEQ01.m2v")
BiCubicResize(352,240,0.00,0.75)

would be what I need? I am way out of practise ;->
I have verified avisynth is installed right?
Can anyone help?
I then tried:

LoadPlugin("MPEG2DEC.dll")
mpeg2source("C:\Decode\File.mpg")
BiCubicResize(352,240,0.00,0.75)

Which doesnt work at all? Does this not work with an mpeg file?
Thanks!

First see the excellent cce faq in the cce forum that rb has been working on. Since you did not say what version of avisynth and what version of cce you were using it would be difficult to help you except to suggest you do a search on "resampleaudio". Also, maybe this thread might help. Specifically see the post from nanobot http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=60742

mpeg2source will not load a mpeg file. You have to first use dvd2avi to produce a d2v and then load that with mpeg2source. So that line would be: mpeg2source("A_D2V_fileOfYourMpegSource.d2v")

I wouldn't try directsource as I think it is a work in progress. Using dvd2avi to make the d2v file is the best and most dependable way to do what you want to do.

I did just that, and got it working. Thank you very much.
I am using the latest version of avisynth, and cce 2.5. I do know about the resamplaudio as well.

Does the latest version of CCE (v2.66.01.07 ??) support avs again?
And I am looking for this faq, but the sticky up top here doesnt seem to link to the actual faq? Url?

Thanks so much.

v2.67.00.13 does support avs.

To expand on what Sh0dan said, all the 2.67 series do support direct read of AVS. The CCE faq can be found anytime in RB's signature or here: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=53770
