The weirdest error I have ever seen

Postby Gepetto » Wed Jun 27, 2007 3:18 pm

I can't even imagine what's causing this. I have the simplest script possible and it won't open for the oddest reason. You'll certainly be amused.

First off, here's my script:
Code: Select all
mpeg2source("CDZ13.d2v",cpu=4)
Telecide(order=1,guide=1)
Decimate(cycle=5,mode=2)


I haven't done anything else. The .d2v is in the same folder as the .avs (obvious from the relative filepath) and if I comment out the second and third lines, it works.

Now, can someone explain what the hell this is?

"order" is only the most important argument in Telecide and VirtualDubMod tells me that it isn't valid. How do I fix that? I realize that there are other ways to do this, but I've used this exact same DVD before (Saint Seiya volume 13, NTSC region 4 Brazillian release) and Telecide works perfectly, better than any other method I know of. This is old school telecine, after all.

Thanks in advance,

Newer versions of Decomb don't have the "order" parameter any more. Nowadays the order has to be specified like this:
Code: Select all
AssumeTFF()
Telecide()
Decimate()

This is what happens when you spend two years without using DVD footage... I seriously thought my computer had gone insane. Thank you, Janzky!
