AviSynth - Color Space Frame Timing

[jagabo]

Finally, last (YV12) from QTGMC is passed to TextSub which adds subtitles and create a new stream called last (YV12).

But last (YV12) from QTGMC also includes Srestore before it is passed to TextSub, even in the case of my previous script you're referencing, right?

Yes, sorry. last from SRestore is passed to TextSub. I fixed the post so as not to confuse future readers.

Can I get your feedback again on this update? Please do be critical. I want to improve it if possible.

LoadPlugin("C:\DGDecode.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\mt_masktools-25.dll")
Import("C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Srestore.avsi")
clip1 = MPEG2Source("C:\1\VTS_01_1.d2v")
clip2 = MPEG2Source("C:\2\VTS_01_1.d2v")
clip2.Trim(18,2704).FadeOut0(19) + clip1.Trim(2687,0)
QTGMC( Preset="Placebo" )
Srestore(Frate=23.976)
TextSub("1.ass")

That looks right.

As for why I thought I needed ConvertToRGB, it was based on these comments:

If you need to work with interlaced video in Virtualdub you definitely want to convert toYUY2 or RGB first.

(I am working with interlaced video in VirtualDub.)

Your script deinterlaces the video (QTGMC) so VirtualDub receives progressive frames, not interlaced frames.

That looks right.

Thanks for checking!

Okay, I didn't realize that was the sequence. Thanks.
