CVD in CCE?

[CyberDude101]

Hey Guys,

Is there any way of encoding a CVD in Cinema Craft Encoder (as it allows for more pass VBR then TMPGenc)? And if so how is this possible?

Thanks.

Frame serve it with avisynth and do the resize there.

LoadPlugin("C:\mpeg2dec.dll")
mpeg2source("yourpath\yourfile")
LanczosResize(352,480)

Save your complete avs script and load that into CCE

The multi pass idea is cool, but I don't think you'd want to go more than 2....which is really3......more than that is overkill. CCE will do single pass VBR at avg 2200 and max 2613 with Q at 90 and I can fit 50 mins on one 352x480 CVD and on a tv can't see the difference from DVD in a medium action film

You can also try to re-scale and frameserve with virtualdub.
It is ideal if you want to add filters to your encoding.
You can re-scale very easy
Not all CCE versions work with vdub, I think ver 2.5 is the most compatible

then again, you can add filters w/avisynth, and it will be quicker than using VDub.

Even simpler, use DVD2SVCD with CCE as the encoder of choice. Just select resize to CVD on the frameserver tab (as long as advanced is selected for DVD2SVCD level on the Misc tab). It will write the avisynth script for you, plus you can edit the script before encoding to add more filters if desired.

GGS.

Thanks for the ideas,

This is what I was thinking... loading the .d2v project into TMPGenc configging it with a CVD template, saving the settings as a TMPGEnc project, and making the project into a pseudo AVI from which is loaded into CCE and encoded,

Any suggestions?

A slightly off topic post, but it arrises out of looking for the same answer as the original. Can you use Virtual Dub filters in AVISYNTH scripts? I know not the natve ones, but .dll plugin types? If so, I presume you use the LoadPlugin command?
