CCE error during vaf file creation.

[fagankev]

Trying to backup Series 1 Family Guy, using DIF4U 1.4.0, batchccews 0.9.1.3and CCE version 2.67.00.23. getting the following error during the vaf file creation stage of CCE


OPV VBV ovf frame# 28976 (00:19:01)I 69264 max 68610.98 rel 653.02 1.01 qsv 18.22->18.22

No idea what this means.

The script im using is

port("C:\Program Files\DoItFast4U\new.avs\addaudio.avs")

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\DoItFast4U\new.avs\mpeg2dec3.dll")

Mpeg2Source("VTS__02_P02.I-TFF.4~3_1.d2v",idct=0)

AddAudio()


And this is my CCEdata.txt

"C:\Video Edit\FAMILY_GUY\DISC2\VTS02\VTS__02_P01.I-TFF.4~3_1.AVS",0,9608,3559,0,3

usually only get weird errors like that at low bitrates.. if your lucky changing your method , you may get around it.. ie use rob/bach instead of regular multipass.. or if your using htat use regular multipass. or raise the bitrate for that assett and lower it for another. delete the vaf before you start again, either way

Wookie is right on.

I bet if you check that frame, #28976 (00:19:01),it contains something that is very hard to compress (like TV "static"). Some things you can try:

Definite reduce the number of passes, use robshot. Every pass on this material increases the chance of hitting this error. Of course, this doesn't help when your hitting it during .vaf creation.

Play around with your bitrate, you can try increasing it around the problem area in the advanced panel of CCE. This can sometimes work, but often times you don't have much room to play with.

Try some filtering, either internal (CCE's filters) or light noise filtering in your .avs script. This will make the video easier to compress. With .avs filters you can try heavier filtering around just the problem area.

Try a different version of CCE. Version 2.5 is probably your best bet, but I've had 2.66 work on material that killed 2.67, but sometimes it doesn't. I'm not sure if 2.5 even has this problem.

If all else fails it's time for TMPGenc or Procoder.

Will do, thanks for the reply

Had same problem with minority report backup using big three.
After doing a lot of searching and reading on this forum I only found one solution that was to revert to previous versions. As I don't have any, I started experimenting.
The tweak that finally worked was to raise the max bitrate value (was: 9238 changed to: 9800)
Created the vaf with no problems and is now on pass 2/4
Hope it solves your problems
