Well, I DO have an AMD processor and I have XP SP2, went to check and blammo there it is. Unfortunately I haven't had time to test this yet, as I worked all last night and I'll be working again today. But when I get home, I'll certainly try and report back. So far my troubleshooting list is:

1. DEP adjustments.
2. Uninstall + delete + reinstall AviSynth
3. Save as image seq + resave as avi
4. Burn to CD and try on someone else's computer

... Long night. x_X

It's a long shot, but *shrugs*... anything that can help...

What version of Windows is this for? I'm using WinXP Pro (SP1) and have never seen any "DEP" options in that window.


Sorry, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Execution_Prevention">Data Execution Prevention</a>

I'm using XP Home 2002, SP2; it wasn't implemented until SP2, so I guess it doesn't apply to you, but maybe Kira. If a program gives me trouble, I add it to the exception list [needless to say, just about every program I use is on there... :roll: ]. Like I said, it's a long shot, but might help :)

The Wrap Up

Postby Kira_Douji » Tue May 01, 2007 10:31 am

Well, I uninstalled and reinstalled Premiere and the AMVapp twice to no avail. I changed the frame where it kept failing, and it worked.... until about the 2:45 mark where it proceeded to fail again. I fixed that frame, exported the section to see if it worked. It did, so I exported the whole thing again, and it failed way back in the beginning at a different frame. ><!

So at that point I decided to just make an XviD encode as well I could and fight with the computer later. So I did one pass without a file size restriction and another with. Then, because Zarx mentioned that encoding my file might fix whatever error the frames were producing, I took the first pass of the XviD encode and re-encoded with x264. Now the same .NET error popped up when I started the process, but I just hit "continue" and BAM, I had a high quality encode at 30MB less than the second pass XviD. So "great" I think, I'll just encode in huffy or lags and then encode that and it'll be perfect.

Alas, no go.

I think my current x264 encode is rather nice, though, so I uploaded it to the ORG. Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who tried to help me out! I'm fairly sure Zarx is right about it being a video problem, but since there's no way to get it out of Premiere without it being messed up somewhere, I'll just have to make do.

If you're curious as to what I was working on at all....

I'll post up something in the announcements forum later today when I have the avi as well. Thanks again for all your help!

Very odd. First time I've seen this one. I might go out on a limb and say maybe your .net framework is screwed up somehow? Maybe try reinstalling .net.

Dunno... maybe something else you had installed modified it, or perhaps some of the files became corrupt.

I installed the Zarx264gui-testfix version, but whenever I try to load my script I get the following error message:

Image

Then Windows says "Zarx264gui2 has stopped working" and the program has to be closed. I'm running Vista x64.

I don't think he's gotten it to work for 64 bit OSes yet... right?
