CCE reporting 240 frames when really there are 40,000?

[vumpler]

I'm having a problem with CCE not understanding a couple of my avs's made with fixcd v.1.2.8 however I do not believe in any way that the fixcd is the problem. fixcd has written my avs's perfect in the past attempts and its just a few files now and i believe it is their codec or something that is the problem...

CCE is reporting a total frame count of 240 frames when it is acually about 40,000... I can't seem to find a way to fix it either. I've tried reencoding etc..

Here are my screens from CCE and gspot:





Maybe you guys see something I don't?

Here's a gspot from a file that does work perfectly fine (it's avs.) and actually came in the same movie clip set :/


Thanks a ton. This is my last problem and if I can solve it tonight I'm golden! Thanks!

The script might also help. If oyu load the script into virtualdub can you play the whole thing ?

[vumpler]

Ok here's the AVS script

# -= AviSynth v2.5.6.0 script by FitCD v1.2.8 =-
AVISource("D:\3. Videos\The Office\The Office Season 2\04- The Fire.avi")
BicubicResize(688,352,0,0.6,4,0,600,336)
AddBorders(16,64,16,64)
#Trim(0,30094).FadeOut(150)

And as far as the working in Virtualdub the answer is no and here's the error. I can't seem to find if that's a codec i can download though? But all the other files work *shrugs*



Any ideas?

VBR MP3 audio. Drop a .killaudio at the end of the AVISource line. This will stop audio being decomped and passed through.

Load the avi into virtualdubmod. When it asks to re-write the headers with CBR, say Yes. Go Streams->Stream List. Right-click and choose full processing mode. Right-click again and select compression, then uncompressed PCM. Click OK, then click on save wav. Use ffmpeggui to convert this to AC3.

In CCE, uncheck the audio processing box.

Ok so my avi synth looks like:

# -= AviSynth v2.5.6.0 script by FitCD v1.2.8 =-
AVISource("D:\3. Videos\The Office\The Office Season 2\04- The Fire.avi").killaudio
BicubicResize(688,352,0,0.6,4,0,600,336)
AddBorders(16,64,16,64)
#Trim(0,30094).FadeOut(150)

I then tried to drop this in CCE and it still remained 240 frames...

Now when you said "uncompressed PCM" were you talking about <No Compression (PCM)> ?

Because tthat's the closest thing I have and when I went to save the wav it gave me a



I really tried to follow the instructions as closely as possible and I can't see where I'm messing them up Thanks for all your time... Can you see my mistake by chance?

And the audio box in CCE remains unchecked

[guns1inger]

Sorry. Didin't Vdub open in front of me at the time. Yes, that's the right selection.

Are you trying this with the avs script, or the original AVI ? It needs to be the AVI. Also, upgrade your copy of g-spot to the latest beta (2.52b) as it does a much better job

[vumpler]

Yes using the AVI. And here's the new Gspot:


Edit:

Ok sorry here it is.

The correct way to kill the audio would be avisource("whatever.avi",false). That way it is never loaded. With killaudio, it fails to load before it gets a chance to be killed.

Goes to show that you should always test your script before trying to encode it. CCE just sees the error as a 240 frame RGB24 source.

That said, AVISynth should have no problem loading mp3 audio.

# -= AviSynth v2.5.6.0 script by FitCD v1.2.8 =-
AVISource("D:\3. Videos\The Office\The Office Season 2\04- The Fire.avi").killaudio
BicubicResize(688,352,0,0.6,4,0,600,336)
AddBorders(16,64,16,64)
#Trim(0,30094).FadeOut(150)

I never used killaudio before but I usually drop the audio with another function.

Try editing the source file line like this:

AVISource("D:\3. Videos\The Office\The Office Season 2\04- The Fire.avi", audio=false)

with audio=false inside the parenthesis

Then try opening it up in virtualdubmod

[guns1inger]

I have never had CCE take VBR encoded MP3, but the "false" tip is worth knowing.

[celtic_druid]

It doesn't have to take a VBR encoded mp3. AVISynth serves it as raw audio. Makes no difference to CCE what the audio is since it will always be PCM.

[guns1inger]

I have tried this, and both CCE and ProCoder have choked. Only by not passing the audio through at all have they been happy.
