Sloppy framerate of .avs files... why?

[The Elf]

Hi!

I have some .avi files that I will burn to DVD and I'm using FitCD to take care of the overscan. The problem is: the .avs files have a sloppy framerate. It is especially noticable when the camera (the full picture) is moving. I've tried many resizing methods in FitCD and nothing seems to work.

Is there a way to avoid this?

Edit: I deleted everything in the .avs file except the AVISource line and, if I play the .avs file, I still have this problem... What is causing this?

Thanks!

Let's start again. What is your source - framerate, size etc ?

Are you converting formats ?
Are you resizing ?

Jerkiness usually comes from poor pulldown or format conversions, assuming nothing is affecting your machine. I have never seen, nor heard of, AVS not providing the framerate requested.

Like I said, it happens even if the only line in the .avs file is the Avisource one... no resizing, no conversion, no anything else... though my goal is to use it to do some resizing with added borders (a typical FitCD .avs file).

My source is the following .avi file:
Video: XVid, 1078kbps (constant), 640X480
Audio: MP3, constant 128 kb/s stereo, 48000Hz

If anything else is missing, just tell me...

try the following


AviSource("c:\folder\myclip.avi", fps=29.97)


even fancier...

AviSource("c:\folder\myclip.avi", fps=29.97, fourCC="XVID")

hum... I just tried it but I get the following error message while playing:
Script Error: AVISource does not have a named argument "fps"

I tried without the fps part, but with the fourCC argument and my video played, but the result is exactly the same as it was: the video is still sloppy.

I don't know if it may help, the framerate of my .avi file is 23.976 fps.
