2 problems with making a movie onto 2 CDs

[Aurin]

Hey!

First of all, I’d like to thank for this great tool, Len! I visit the doom site day by day, and I see that you make improvements on AutoGK nearly every day. I’m happy to see that you really cares for what you are doing! So I do thank you in the names of the thousands who uses your program!

Anyway, I experienced two different problems, when I go for 2 CDs. Both of these problems happen only with some movies, but not with just one special only.

The first one (for example with Tears of the Sun), makes 3 CDs with auto width, instead of 2, no matter I set for 2 CDs, finally got 3, leaving about 5 Megs on the third one. I managed to solve this problem setting the resolution to fix, 640 pixels width.

The second one is more annoying, couldn’t solve it, with Matrix 2, K-Pax. Switching to auto width, going for 2 CDs, on the first (and only on the first!) CD the sound is skipping, doesn’t match with the picture. The second CD is always ok, the sound and the movie goes together.

Thx for helping!

For the first case I'd like to see logs.

As there is absolutely no diff in splitted files I'd recommend checking you playback for the second case. Which codec is that?
If XviD, then make sure you're using Nic's decoder. Also may be MMswitch filter gives you some troubles. Which audio do use MP3 or AC3 ?

Hi there!

I enclose the log file of a movie in which the first CD’s sound doesn’t go together with the movie. Anyway the unclipped avi runs perfect.

have you tried defragging your hard disk .. or copy avi (bin/cue) files to a different physical hard disk (so they are moved). or reboot pc in case of memory shortage.[SIZE=1]There is post on christmas day.[SIZE=1]

Hello! I don´t believe it! You´re hungarian? Like me? :D
A doom9.hu fórumon is regisztrálva vagy? :confused:
Szerintem a Koepi-féle kódeket használd ne a Nic-et! ;)
És ne auto width-tel csináld, hanem 640-essel... Ezzel nálam eddig minden filmet szuperül elkészített az AutoGK! :p
