MainConcept / CCE can they open *.d2v ?

[johneboy]

Hey guys, trying to convert Black Hawk Down to fit on a DVD-R, so i needs to re-encode
ANYWAY, TMPGenc seems to work fine, despite the 60 hours it will take...
I have a demo of MainConcept, and CCE, and i have heard these are much faster, so i was just wondering, is there a way to load D2V files into these programs? When i try with MainConcept, i get an error, that there is no valid video stream, and with CCE, i get an error about a missing VAF file or something to that effect...
Any Ideas??

MainEncoder seems to work good (cept for that little logo thing)
CCE however, gives me this error...

vinfo_open() failed: *** Could not open the file <C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Black Hawk Down_dv2-vfapi.vaf> ***
The system cannot find the file specified

[Windows error code: 0x2 2]

any ideas?

is the Black Hawk Down_dv2-vfapi.vaf file in the same place where your vob files are if not it needs to be and thats why you are getting that error.....

i used... VFAPIConv-EN.exe and all it did was convert my d2v file to an avi file..???

now with that avi file you load it into cce by right clicking in the white area...

i did that
its loads up.. i adjust the settings, and hit encode
then the transcoding window pops up for about a second before i get that error message

try this:

install Avisynth(2.07)

Start up notepad and copy&paste the following lines into it(correct the paths!):

LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\DVD2SVCD\MPEG2Dec\mpeg2dec .dll")
mpeg2source("C:\Terminator\terminator.d2v")
ResampleAudio(44100)

After this save as *.avs file.

then open that file with CCE... its faster method...

dont use audio part in the CCE!!!

Zzzzzzzzzz
