AVI to SVCD...VBR problem with CCE?

[SHaque]

OK, if you could decifer what I am talking about in that subject you are the guy I want to talk to!

I am frameserving captured video from Vdub. I need to use Vdub because of tons of filters I added. But when I serve this to CCE 2.5 using 3-pass VBR, CCE crashes right after cretaing the first VAF file. It does this every time.

I recently read on here that perhaps thi is a problem with the frameserver. If so, how can I serve my avi to CCE while also maintaining my Vdub filters? I heard that Avisynth might be able to do this, but how?

Thanks for your help!

hi
this is what I use in Avisynth:


LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\DVD2SVCD\MPEG2DEC\MPEG2DEC .DLL&quot
avisource("C:\windows\desktop\test\test.avi&quot
BiCubicResize(480,432,0.00,0.75)
TemporalSmoother(2,1)
AddBorders(0,72,0,72)

One more think i think using 3 pass is waste of time
I did a test where i have 5 mb avi and I try cbr one pass and multi pass.I came to conclusion that using One pass
is faster a lot and you getting the same quality.
Try it you'll see there is no differents in quality

It depends on the quality of source of course. If you use quite a low avg+max bitrate you will need more passes.
Why do you resize the captured avi and why do you load the mpeg2dec plugin?

SHaque, is this your error message?:
cce encoding failed: Error: Video check-sum, is different from that of previous pass.
Source video data or time code may be different
Please check video tape or the information file
--- information---
Then have a look at this topic.

Thanks Truman, that is the error message I have been getting, and I will bet that patch will solve the problem!

Thanks!
