I'M GOING MAD!! NEED HELP PLEASE.

[city hunter]

Im trying to convert the deleted scenes and trailers from the Hannibal DVD to VCD using Tmpgenc but keep getting a juddery picture! i'v tried deinterlaceing and changing the field orders but nothing works, has anyone else had this problem and if so did they find a solution. Also i found that if i frameserve the desired scenes through FlaskMPEG into Tmpgenc than the juddery motion is gone but then there is a shadow type effect to the picture, i don't think the deinterlaceing in Flask is any good and i can't use the deinterlacer in tmpgenc when using Flask because it turns the picture into a weird shimering effect.

If anyone can help than please do.
Thank You.

Im not sure what u mean by juddery picture, but I had a similar problem when I ripped fight club..the movie came out fine but the stuff on the extra DVD disc came out with skippy like frames ..slightly but noticable...I never bothered to try correcting it...but I like to suggest an idea for u...Try encoding all the deleted scenes with flask as a divx avi at low-motion and use a high bitrate. then convert that divx-avi file in tmpeg..

When I ripped the movie "conan the barbarian" is encoded the entire movie with divx-low motion at 6000bps and the audio I did as a PCM-wav 16bit 44khz so the avi would encode faster not having to encode to mp3. I encoded the divx in tmpg as a vcd and it looks great. see if that might work for u... DVD-->DIVX-->VCD.

Because more thatn likely it is a ntsc interlaced source try to use a deinterlace filter under the advanced tab.

rather than deinterlacing, if you're using tmpgenc anyways, i'd recommend an ivtc. check in dvd2avi if it's ntsc interlaced or ntsc film with pulldown flags to run at 29.97fps.

if it's the interlaced, do an auto ivtc with tmpgenc and see if you get better results. if anything, you'll get better quality as your bitrate will be spread across less frames. then you can just run this neat l'il program called "pulldown" that'll add the rff flags to the 23.976fps file for a player pulldown.

oh yah, and that's if you're gonna use another encoder (like ccesp). if you're encoding to tmpgenc, you won't have to use pulldown, as there's a setting in tmpgenc to encode @23.976 with on-the-fly 3:2 pulldown by the player.
