AutoGK: Star Wars Episode VI all jerky

[MelTraX]

hi all..

I already started three tries in order to encode Episode VI: Return of the Jedi with AutoGK properly.. Episodes II, IV and V are being encoded well, but the 6th one is all jerked up:

- the resolution is only half the size of normal rips
- there are many blocks which look like data corruption
- the blocks speed up the whole video so that it runs approx. at twice the normal speed but it restarts in the middle so that it's twice in the file but with the original length
- the two audio channels are like they should be - this leads to massive desync with the video being twice as fast but that's the way it should be I guess

If this movie is discussed in another thread, I'm sorry, but my search didn't show up any results.

I don't know if anyone can help me with this problem but I hope this example helps with solving bugs in AutoGK because I REALLY do like this tool.

If there is any other information I should post, please tell me...

This is the "Star Wars VI - Return of the Jedi_agk.log" - hope it helps.

Hello, and welcome to the forum.

Twentieth Century Fox will be releasing this film, globally, one month from now. http://www.foxdeutschland.com/dvd/page_intlcms_007401.html

See Rule 6 (http://forum.doom9.org/forum-rules.htm).
See this Announcement (http://forum.doom9.org/announcement.php?s=&forumid=6).

Thread closed.

sorry for the misunderstanding..

the digitally remastered trilogy of Star Wars was on german pay TV several months ago.. I recorded it digitally and burned it to DVD..
As far as I know there is nothing illegal about this as long as it's for my own entertainment and it certainly is..

Now I have a new HDD and I decided to put my movie collection onto it... So I ripped them again and wanted to encode them with AutoGK.. The first two movies are all okay but the third is jerky like described in my last thread (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=81122)..

I hope someone can help.. Otherwise I have to hope that the official DVDs can be encoded with this beautiful tool when I have bought them..

MelTraX...

[jggimi]

Thanks for clarification. I've merged the two threads into this one, and re-opened it.

[MelTraX]

yeah, thanks..

should have mentioned it in the first post..
