Now The Questions!!!!
Question 1:
When I open the *.avs file in Premiere and set the pixel to 1.0 and all, you know the deal. I play the file, but in the beginning of the movie where the green digital mapping of the city, is all green I see some orange!!! It’s like the frames where optimized or something. Now I know that it was ripped correct, because when I open it in DVD2AVI and play it, the 3d map in the movie is all bright green. I think it’s something to do with the color, like the pictures green was a perfect 255 green, so DVD2AVI got confused. I even played the VOB file in Power DVD and it was fine. Can you help me?
Question 2:
When I save the *.avs file to *.avi I use the Divx 5 encoding at 4500Kbps at 720x480 and pixel size 1.0. How do I get sound out of the completed *.avi file.
I edited the *.avs with notepad, here what I typed down.
LoadPlugin("D:\MPEG2DEC.DLL")
MPEG2Source("D:\gits.d2v")
When the DVD2AVI saved the project it saved the *.d2v and a *.wav file for the audio seperatly.
Should I add something to the *.avs file, to get the movies sound in the premiere, and also how do I resize it to 640x464? I’m basically ripping the DVD on to my computer to play it as a background desktop movie, and I don’t want to find the DVD to play it, just point and click.
Question 3:
Last but not least, this is no biggie. When I actually save the *.avs file as a *.avi and the small box that pops up tells you how long it will take to complete, it shows weird numbers. It says that there is only 465 frames to convert and I’m processing 0.07 FPS, and will take more than 1hour to complete. Now I know there is WAY more frames than 465 so I figured out the frames the movie really has and calculated with the estimated time Premiere gave me. I ended up with a processing rate of 20FPS which is average for my computer to do. So in conclusion….. why the hell is it doing that??
Thanks a bunch!!!
