View Full Version : Creating a 1/2 speed video

I wanted to take an AVI of a dance sequence we are filming and filter it to 1/2 speed so it would be easier for people to learn.
I used
AssumeSampleRate(8000)
assumeFPS(14.985)
in the in the AviSynth script. It works OK in media player but CCE
says frameerate 1571291/1048576 is not supported.
Is there a way to encode 1/2 speed with CCE?

CCE only supports 23.976, 24, 25 and 30 FPS. I would experiment with SelectRangeEvery() and FreezeFrame() in the AVISynth script, basically repeating a frame several times to produce a slow-down effect. Also probably better asked in the AVISynth forum.

Thanks. I was actually able to get around this by saving as a slowmotion AVI in VirtualDubMod. Then ChangeFPS and process in CCE giving a slowmotion version with sound. When I tried to blend the two scripts together and omit the extra step it produced a mpeg file with noise like a bowling alley- not 1/2 speed sound like the first way. Guess I will check into why the difference on Avisynth forum after I finish this instructional VCD.

What about putting ConvertFPS(29.97) after AssumeFPS(14.985)?

Remember to put ConvertToYUY2() before ConvertFPS since it still only works in YUY2 colourspace.
