Resize in Frameserver tab with DVD 2 DVD+R conversion

[walkistalki]

Hi,

After having read multiple posts, I'm still not completely clear about the resizing step when doing DVD2DVD conversion.

Is it necessary to select a resize method? Since I try to recreate the original I would say no.

If resizing has to be done, or has benefits, could you please explain why?

Sorry if this has already been answered, but I didn't find the answer

Thx a lot for clarifying!,

It is not strictly needed, but be careful with the original size of your DVD (could be 720x(576/480) or 704x(576/480). Not sure what will happen with 704x(576/480), may be nothing wrong. I never had this case.
BTW you will get a little bit more of speed.
To avoid resizing, just include a new line in your AVISYNTH.INI
[AVISYNTH_NoResize_DVD_16_9_noresize]

Yes, a completely empty filter. Be aware D2S will delete this "empty filter" after every encode (just curious, I've been noticed of that, because sometimes I use it...).

BTW, D2S also moves the filter in use to the end of the file. I like to have my filters "ordered" in frameserver tab, so I overwrite my AVISYNTH.INI with a backup copy every time I start an encode.
