AVI to DVD using CCE 2.50 is making short videos

[aktee]

Hi, I'm using CCE 2.5. I want to convert my anime fansubs to DVD, (10 episodes in 1 dvd, it's about 2300 bitrate).
This is the avisynth script I use.

LoadPlugin("D:\PROGRA~1\DVD2SVCD\AVISYN~1.5PL\Mpeg2dec\MPEG2D~1.DLL")
AVISource("D:\NARUTO~1\source\naruto3.avi")
ConvertToYUY2()
AddBorders(20,17,20,17)
BicubicResize(720,480)
ChangeFPS(23.976)
ConvertToYUY2()

this is my ECL file.

title=1.avs
vid_out=1
vaf_out=1
aud_out=1
vid_file0=D:\NarutoDVD\narutodvd\1.mpv
vid_file1=D:\NarutoDVD\narutodvd\1.mpv
vaf_file=D:\NarutoDVD\narutodvd\1.vaf
aud_file=D:\NarutoDVD\narutodvd\1.mpa
file_focused=0
encode_mode=0
packet_size=4096
timecode=0x0
width=720
height=480
vmode=2
frame_rate_idx=1
cbr_brate=6000
opv_q_factor=60
opv_brate_min=2000
opv_brate_max=9000
vbr_brate_avg=2300
vbr_brate_min=2000
vbr_brate_max=9000
vbr_bias=30
vbr_pass=4
quality_prec=25
use_filter=1
filter_val=6
seq_endcode=1
dvd=0
half_width=0
half_height=0
fast_mode=0
progressive=1
alternate_scan=0
non_linear=0
top_first=0
lum_level=0
intra_dc_prec=2
aspect_ratio=2
gop_m=3
gop_nm=4
gop_hdr=12
seq_hdr=1
all_closed_gop=0
fix_gop_length=0
mpeg1=0
mpeg1_cps=0
samples_per_sec=48000
stereo=2
brate_idx=4
crc=1

the setting is duplicated 10 times for each episode.

the original video is 23:04 minutes. when I convert it, it gives me 05:53 minute video.. and it's the complete video.. which means, when i'll put the sound, it'll be pitched.

what am I diong wrong? I'm using the same Avisynth script as when I convert 1 movie with DVD2SVCD, and it works. Why isn't it doing the same? =\.

thank you.[/list]

How you determine the time of the encoded file?

Hi-

Abond's question is the most important as most players won't give you the correct length for an .mpv or .m2v.

But also, why the ChangeFPS line? Isn't it already 23.976fps? And are you running Pulldown afterwards? And why the need for 2 ConvertToYUY2 calls? Once is enough.

[aktee]

I need the changeFPS line because some of them are 116 fps.
Sorry for the 2 x ConvertToYUY2.
It is because I added
AddBorders(20,17,20,17)
BicubicResize(720,480)
ChangeFPS(23.976)
ConvertToYUY2()

to the default DVD2SVCD avs file that it generates. And DVD2SVCD automatically add the ConvertToYUY2 line.

by the way.. I determine the lenght by opening it and looking at the time.. with media classic.. =\

I'll test it by watching it for real.

thanks guys!

Use vDubMod to look for the duration.
