QuEnc failing

[Doume]

I am trying QuEnc as per the "doom9" guide

(http://www.doom9.org/index.html?/mpg/quenc.htm), and I get the following error message :

"AVS file is not outputing (use ConvertToYV12() at the end of script)

I tried to add that "ConvertToYV12()" at the end of the script, so the script looks like the following

LoadPlugin("C:\...\mpeg2dec3.dll")
mpeg2source("C:\....\d2v")
ConvertToYV12()

But I still get the same message.

I tried to use "DVD Rebuilder" as per "doom9" guide(http://www.doom9.org/index.html?/mpg/dvdrb.htm) with the QuEnc encoder, but I also got the same error message.

Can anybody help me ?

Thanks in advance.

do you have xvid installed?
if don't, do it and try again... http://www.doom9.org ...downloads!
"everything" will work, if don't post again!

welcome in forum!

Thanks for your reply Jorel,

I have XviD installed, but QuEnc does not work.

seems stup but i need to ask:
you're using avisynth 2.5x ?

By default XVID codec provides YUY2 picture.
avs2.08 works in YUY2 and not YV12.
You have to open its configure box and select "output : force YV12".

still don't work ?
use
ConvertToYUY2() at the end of the script
and remove the line ConvertToYV12()

but if it all don't work, download the
ATI.YV12.Planar.Format.Decoder.v4.12.exe
here: (free codecs)
http://mirror01.iptelecom.net.ua/~video/
sometimes is hard to open this link but works!

mpeg2dec3 outputs YV12 by default anyway.

Sure that there isn't an error in your script?? Because AVISynth errors are RGB.

Always test your scripts before trying to encode them.

As celtic_druid said...load the AVS into VirtualDub and make sure there are no errors...

right....but he load the mpeg2dec3 in the script and got a message:

"AVS file is not outputing (use ConvertToYV12() at the end of script)


of course,something is worng in the script or versions of filters/avisynth !

It seems that the problem I got was due to the fact I had used by mistake DVD2AVIdg (installed with Gordian Knot) instead of DVD2AVI.

I tried to do the same trial of QuEnc, but that time with DVD2AVI.

It seems to start working now (I hope it will continue, work is in progress).

that's strange... only difference between DVD2AVIdg and DVD2AVI is that it doesn't lose frames like the latter.

try installing the mpeg2dec3 that goes with DVD2AVIdg and all should be well. if not, there may be a conflicting version of mpeg2dec3.dll hanging around somewhere that needs removing.

I did some new tests and it works.

It is likely that I did not call the right file in the AVS script of my first test.

Thanks.
