okayy interlacey bit seems to have gone all of a sudden but playback on virtualdubmod has gone really slow and the audio sounds as if the singer had a bad case of hiccups(for 4 minutes) :shock:

I added some stuff to the script

DirectShowSource("C:\Documents and Settings\Default\My Documents\My Videos\Smile-KH2.3.avi")
ConvertToYV12
Deen("w3d",3,3,5)
TDeint(mode=1)

before I added TDeint it was fine,after I added it the video went slow.And afterwards when I took it off the video was still slow!

maybe its my computer?

be sure to check your settings and make sure the export settings the interleave box is not checked

also check your project settings and make sure it is set as progressive

the interleave box was selected at 0.250 lol.And where'd I check if it's progressive or not?

Well since I'm waiting I've always wanted to know if there was a simpler way of using the track motion tool.Because when I set keyframes to get 1 clip to slide out and have another slide in,the rest of the clips on the same track start off in the same but wrong position too!So I tried setting a keyframe at the start of the next clip(the one I want to be still) in the centre but when it plays back to the clip I wanted to move,it moves alright but then it just moves itself back into the centre!

Is there anyway to stop that or do I just have to use a new layer each time I use track motion?

If you're just moving one clip around (or even two in the case of sliding one out and one in) just use the Pan/Crop option. Track motion is made to move the whole track, hence the name. Pan/Crop is specific to clips.
... yea ...

I've been in AVISynth trying to clean up my footage and I think I've gotten it to where I can get it best. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, when I upload that footage into Vegas in order to put in subs, the quality goes down with pixelated outlines.

Note, I tried cleaning up the footage with the subs in, but that results in the subs being unreadable with chroma(I think it's called, it's all gloawy).

Does Vegas just not like the footage or what?

My source files? Since I'm not sure what you're saying, I'll give you the full details of what I think you're asking. The clips are from the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. They were all ripped with DVD Decrypter and then became Lagarith-encoded AVIs via VD. After putting them together, I saved the clips under an AVI with these settings:

1. Used project settings, 720x480
2. Frame rate: 29.970 (NTSC)
3. Field Order: None (Progessive Scan)
4. Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1
5. Video Format: Lagarith
6. Interleave every frame.

Then, I open it in VD via AVISynth with this coding which I have been messing around with:
AVISource("insertfilename")
ConvertToYUY2(interlaced=true)
ConvertToYV12()
deen("c3d")
temporalcleaner()
awarpsharp
msharpen(threshold=45,strength=70,mask=false,highq=true)
Tweak(cont=1.0,sat=1.0,bright=0, hue=0)

After that, I exported it out with Lagarith. I hope this provides the information you need.

6. Interleave every frame.

^ this is probably a problem

though you shouldn't need that converttoyuv filter twice O.o

awarpsharp - no ()? after it?
and it doesn't look like you are doing much with tweak.

however it almost looks like you are overfiltering... be careful with that...

I'll give that a shot and see what happens.

It's to YUY2 and then YV12. I can agree with the overfiltering. When I was trying to tune it up with the subs in, the overfiltering ended up giving my green subs a pinkish chroma. As for the lack of the (), I was just copy-pasting from the guide for any functions that seemed like they could do the job.
