Odd flashes at the top of the screen

Postby starseekergem » Tue May 22, 2007 3:46 pm

When I encoded a video to Xvid, these white or green flashes kept appearing on top of the screen. They were there even when I tried encoding again. Dos anyone have any idea what's causing this or how to get rid of it?

Explain your export methods codecs and your transcoding settings etc.

It's probably due to non mod 16.

What resolution is your video?

The video size is 688 x 480.

I exported the video from VirtualDubMod after using this Avisynth script to de-interlace it.

ConvertToYUY2(interlaced=true)
KernelDeint(order=1,threshold=10)
TomsMoComp(1,5,1)
Crop(16,0,-16,0)

The Xvid export was a Onepass.


There was also some filcker (but not as much) in the Huffyuv master, which was 720x480.

Never mind. I fixed it by exporting another copy

For reference, when someone asks how you exported something it means how it was exported from your editing software. You're transcoding in virtualdubmod. Also, exports should be done uncompressed to prevent errors... in Adobe software at least.

The export was in Huffyuv from Premier Elements. And that was fine.

I'm sorry I didn't understand the difference.
