CinemaCraft Error

[KnightHeart]

Hi there!
I have a problem using CinemaCraftEncoder, i keep getting this failiure message when running an avisynth script:

# -= AviSynth script by FitCD v1.1.2 =-
#LoadPlugin("D:\PathOf\AnyPlugin.dll")
AviSource("D:\FTP\Moviez\the hours.avi")

1) Can you play the AVS script file in WMP (windows media player)

2) What verison of CCE are you using (ie. does it support frameserving, and/or have you been able to use other avisynth script files in the past).

Howdii

Yes the scripts runs smoothly thruu wmp and with TMPGenc, i have CCE V2.5 and i have read alot on this site that CCE should be able to read
avisynth script files but i cant seem to get it to work though hmmm.

I noticed that you are changing FPS in your script. You should turn off audio in your script when FPS is changed. Read Avisynth documentation for details. You might need adjust audio afterward to keep A/V synch.

Hi again!

Another CCE question according to the manual it only handles avi files
so now i wunder if it wont accept files in DivX format?

I also read some decoding tips on sevral sites and they all sugested
to only encode video with CCE and unse another tools for audio encoding
and mutliplexing.

I know DVD2SVCD does allt that in a sweep but i cant seem to get CCE to start then either for some strange reason.

1. CCE also reads mov files as well as avi files. But the frame rates must be 24/25/.../60 fps. If divx is in avi format and frame rate is right, it should read it.

2. Yes. The more experienced users always do video and audio separately.

3. I personally don't like DVD2SVCD. I like to control and tweak a lot of things in the whole ripping/encoding/authoring process. DVD2SVCD can't do that. For CCE to work properly, you need either newer versions or some patch for CCE 2.50SP.

KnightHeart, if you install tne new Virtualdub 1.5.1 you can use it to frameserve to CCE 266 i dont know if it works for CCE 250. Also there is a new interface, GoCCE, on the CCE website that allows AVIsynth to work.
Here is the script it created for me:

AVISource("E:\movie2.avi")
BilinearResize(720,480)
ConvertToYUY2()
ResampleAudio(48000)

but it only seems to work if you use the GoCCE, and the ResampleAudio command makes the sound the bad. I have not been able to get AVIsynth to work right with CCE but frameserving with virtualdub 1.5.1 works great.
