  1. Hello,

    i have a TV recording, which is quite stuttering. It's a rare german movie and i can't find another proper source. Any chance to bring this file to DVD (smooth)?


    thanks for your attention

  3. Oh God

    you could try decimating it and iterpolating it. there really isnt much that can be done. not even interlacing holds any more value

    I've got to stop making comments when I'm distracted by other stuff around me.

    FFvideosource appears to be able to load this source properly. Install AVStoDVD, set FFmpegsource for the AVS video source filter (preferences/avisynth tab).

    Also, Preference/video tab make sure the Video standard PAL / NTSC is set correctly

    Load the source. Right click/edit source title info/video scan type/progressive.
    CLick the arrow to the right of the Output button above, select your output type.
    Start the encode

  7. I had trouble with ffvideosource -- it only read the first half of the video. I was able to reencode the entire video with smooth results with ffmpeg though:

    Code:
    ffmpeg -i "Charleys Tante 1996 TVRip short-001.mkv" -vf setpts=N/25/TB,setsar=64/45 -c:v libx264 -c:a copy output.mkv
    I set the output to x264 in mkv because I don't do ffmpeg encoding for DVD -- so I don't know what the parameters are for DVD compatibility.

    <edit>
    Oops, I uploaded the wrong video earlier. The correct one is here now.
    </edit?

    Yeah, perhaps it's the version of ffms2.dll, I'm using the version included with A2D, 2.27.0 dated 1/8/18.
    I got 7518 frames encoded, 5 minutes 1 second approx.

    These Interlaced AVC files cause problems for almost everybody, it seems.

    A2D itself recognizes this file as interlaced, but FFvideosource appears to handle it properly and it returns
    progressive frames. So you have tell A2d that the file is really progressive otherwsie it encodes it as interlaced.
    It still flows OK, but the image quality is damaged

    Thanks for the ffmpeg info

    When A2D uses ffmpeg to encode the CBR m2v it uses this:
    Code:
    ffmpeg -i "I:\temp\charley-progressive_2_Charleys Tante 1996 TVRip short-001_1.avs" -threads 4 -aspect 16:9 -c:v mpeg2video -b:v 8000k -minrate 8000k -maxrate 8000k -bufsize 2000k -dc 9 -y "C:\Users\davex\Videos\a2d_temp\charley-progressive_2_Charleys Tante 1996 TVRip short-001.m2v"

  9. DGSource is ok in MKV on this sample. Really the "gold standard" for avisynth source filters.

    LSmash and FFMS2 had problems in MKV container.

    But if you demux it, and use LSmash on the ES, it's ok too. But FFMS2 still no good (maybe the version I'm using)
