I think Im missing a few things

[craigarta]

OK since XVID4PSP has decided to never run rver again on my pc after the latest windows upgrade
I have ventured more in the AvsP world. I have a basic understanding AVS structures but I think Im missing something on this script.
Can anyone tell me what Im missing. The reason I ask is normally this a 6 hour encode and it seems to be taking 45 minutes

Maybe it's going more quickly because you're using none of those filters you loaded after the ###[FILTERING]### line. Did you really want to encode a video with a resolution of 628x480? Ordinarily you'd crop before resizing.

And you don't need the ConvertToYV12() line as DVDs are already in YV12.

I think this is equivalent, omitting all the unnecessary loads:
(you'll get error messages if anything is missing).

And all that does is load, convert audio to mono and amplify, resize the video and then crop it (as Manono says, probably better to crop first).
Is that what you wanted to do?

[Gavino]

Another observation on your script: the setmtmode(2) has no effect, since the first setmtmode command in a script must come before any filters are called.

If you want multi-threaded operation, add this line to the start of the script (still keeping the later setmtmode(2)):
SetMTMode(5)

That could explain a few things. I just used the avs file that xvid4psp last made as an example and went from there.
Changing a few file names where needed.
