Question Re Project X

[haubrija]

Quick question for you fellas,

I have been archiving .tp streams captured from a MYHD-120 for about the past 3 months using AutoGK to write to Xvid. Been working pretty well so far without too many problems. I cut the commercials using HDTV2MPEG2 writing the stream to a .ts file and then encode after that.

I've been having intermittent problems archiving 24 this season. For some reason, one of the segments always results in jerky playback. btw I'm using FDecimate in AutoGK to go from 59fps to 23fps.

I thought Project X may be able to help with some of my problems. However, while using project x on my strem (and writing to .ts) I always come up with an unusable stream. I think the problem lies in the fact that Project X remaps the PIDs, for example it will take PIDs 0x31 and 0x34 and map them to 0xE0 and 0x80 thus making it unreadable.

Is there an option so I can get a usable .ts stream after processing in Project X? Any help would be appreciated.

I haven't had a problem (I don't think since I'm relatively new to .ts streams and Project X) with cutting out the commercials in Project X and demuxing it. I then create my d2v file with dgindex and use a script that I kind of pilfered from reading posts on here. I don't think it's the best and I'm hoping at some point to get some help on it.

The reason I'm responding is that I noticed tonight when I was watching 24 episode 5 from Monday night that there is some jerky playback issues after the first commercial (I think I don't really remember exactly where it was anymore). I also use fdecimate to go from 59fps to 23fps and then do a 3:2 pulldown to get me back up to 29.970. Tonight I'm going to run it with fdecimate to 29.970. I have used the other method though on the other four episodes of 24, but haven't noticed any problems and I didn't notice anything on my Jonny Zero cap. So, I'm hoping it was a fluke.

All my Project X settings are at default settings and they seem to be working fine. The only .ts files I have problems with in Project X are ESPN HD, HBO HD, and Discovery HD.

I know it's not an answer, but I do some very similiar sets as you do and have noticed the jerkiness.
