avisynth decomb telecide overrides not working

[Statick777]

does anyone have any idea why I can't get overrides to work in Telecide()?
using Decomb 5.2.4 in both Staxrip and MeGUI is the same - nothing seems to happen at all. I've seen elsewhere that if there's a problem with the overrides file you won't get any kind of error, it just won't do anything, which is what's happening here but I cannot for the life of me figure out what the issue is

my code looks like this

D2VSource("E:\video work\rips\video.d2v")
Telecide(guide = 1, post = 0, ovr = "overrides.txt", vthresh = 60, show = true, debug = true)

the overrides.txt file is in the same folder as the AVS script, and frustratingly if I use Procmon to monitor system file activity, I can see that my overrides file does get opened successfully when the script is run, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with my file not being found because it's in the wrong path or anything like that

at the moment for testing purposes my overrides file consists only of

0,1000 c

and when I run the script I can see that Telecide is just choosing C and N frames as usual for frames 0-1000 and not following my override at all

I've tried running the script in both Staxrip (my preferred encoder) and MeGUI and it's the same on both

can anyone suggest where the problem is?

Haven't ever used the overwrite option, but have you tried using an absolute path instead of assuming that the filter assumes that it should look in the same folder as the script instead of its own location?

[Statick777]

yeah I've tried that, the docs say the file must live in the same folder as the script, but I just assumed that was because they weren't specifying a path in the examples. So I've tried it that way and by specifying an absolute path, in both cases I can monitor in Procmon and see that the file is successfully opened, but the overrides don't do anything

Are you using the 64-bit version of the Decomb plugin? I've experienced the problem you describe with the Telecide function when using the 64-bit version of it. Anytime that I want to do overrides, I have to switch back to using the 32-bit version of the Decomb plugin and then it works fine.

I don't have Telecide() but it works in 64 bit TFM().

I don't have Telecide() but it works in 64 bit TFM().

TFM doesn't have the pattern guide function that Telecide does, and this was giving me much better results than TFM. however since I still need to do some overrides and Telecide won't let me, I'm back on TFM, doing 10x as many overrides as I would have needed to in Telecide

ah. this must be it
