SVCD PAL to DVD NTSC... Again..

[jbenj01]

Tools used: TMPGEnc plus, FitCD and CCE 2.50

Firstly, CCE 2.50 won't even accept my avisynth scripts.. i've tried 3 different scripts and CCE keeps giving me erro: "Does not support framerat 740x56.." ... ?? Here's a sample of my script

LoadPlugin("C:\PATH\MPEG2DEC.dll")
mpeg2source("C:\PATH\XX.d2v")
SeparateFields()
SeparateFields()
BilinearResize(320,224,0,0,352,288).Weave()
AddBorders(16,16,16,16)
AssumeFPS(23.976, true)
ResampleAudio(44100)

The one time that CCE did accept a file, the video came out shifted to the right so as to cut off about 1/4 of the right side of the movie.. ??

adam, thanks for your help, as well... Can you advise more, if you're around?? thanks!

From what I can tell, NOBODY makes CCE work properly except the serious gurus.

I don't think its output is higher-quality, so I just use TMPGEnc.

Someone needs to write a frontend for CCE that does all this scripting for us.

P.S. My method? I just merge the SVCD's, load up the video and the NTSC DVD template in TMPGEnc, and let it run. Yeah, it takes HOURS AND HOURS. Oh well.

yea, no kidding.. the time factor w/tmpgenc is a huge deterrent.. thanks anyway.
