Interlaced NTSC to PAL Avisynth conversion problem

[troyvcd1]

I am trying to convert an NTSC interlaced video to pal to send overseas. I am using avisynth 2.5.

LoadPlugin("MPEG2DEC3dg.dll")
LoadPlugin("SmoothDeinterlacer.dll")
mpeg2source("d:\st\st1.d2v")
SeparateFields()
Weave()
SmoothDeinterlace(doublerate=true)
#ConvertFPS(50)
ChangeFPS(50)
LanczosResize(720,576)
SeparateFields()
SelectEvery(4,1,2)
Weave()
Converttoyuy2()

I get unrecognized exception on line 9. If I try to use convertfps instead of changefps I get convertfps needs yuy2 input. I tried adding the line converttoyuy2() before this command with no help. I have the plugins in the avisynth directory. any help?

Have you tried AssumeFPS(50)?

assumefps(50) doesnt work either.

Just as an experiment, try this script with your source...

LoadPlugin("MPEG2DEC3dg.dll")
LoadPlugin("SmoothDeinterlacer.dll")
mpeg2source("d:\st\st1.d2v")
SeparateFields()
LanczosResize(720,288).Weave()
AssumeFPS(25.000, false)
ConvertToYUY2(interlaced=true)

I changed my script to the following and it seems to load up ok. Does this script seem ok. Again my source is a wedding dvd video that is interlaced.

LoadPlugin("D:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\MPEG2DEC3dg.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\SmoothDeinterlacer.dll")
mpeg2source("d:\st\st1.d2v")
SeparateFields()
Weave()
converttoyuy2()
SmoothDeinterlace(doublerate=true)
LanczosResize(720,576)
#ConvertFPS(50)
ChangeFPS(50)
SeparateFields()
SelectEvery(4,1,2)
Weave()
Converttoyuy2()
