Good. As I thought, the last two images seem to have the same levels. This rules out converttoyv12 messing stuff up. Good troubleshooting there testing that ;) That means that the levels discrepancy is caused in the playback of the MP4 (since it's fine when it enters the encoder, and all it does is ...

It's not a saturation issue. As you can see, the dark areas such as the back of the head are lighter in the second image. This says to me that the luma values have changed. If it was just a saturation problem, it would have been mostly as dark as it was in the original since the dark part of the hea...

Can you try a recent build of VLC?

It's strange that you are getting the errors you are. If it was a codec issue then it wouldn't affect VLC (as it uses it's own codecs). It might also be that the videos are corrupt. Have you tried re-downloading them since?

You are better off waiting for the DVD. The thing with downloaded files is that they have already been processed. Different IVTC methods can cause scene changes to be offset sometimes which may affect your timing. Also if it's not a DVD rip (a TV capture) then it's unlikely to be the same duration a...

I didn't see anything of concern in the files. The one that I checked used anamorphic encoding, but that should have worked fine. The actual resolution was 848x480 and it was tagged for 853x480. Anyway, going back to drivers and such, go in to your graphics card driver and see if there are any optio...

My avs auto resizes even when there's nothing in it but the import line. nevertheless.. mpeg2source("C:\Documents and Settings\Vivaldi\My Documents\5cmps.dv2") Can you clarify exactly what the source is? Is it a DVD, a downloaded file? If it is downloaded, what format is it? If it is a DVD then it ...

There was a bug in the version of mp4box that I used that causes it to not output a file on some systems. Zarx264gui does not use any special temp folder. Hmm, well I didn't mean to come across as saying your GUI was using a special temp folder, I know that it just uses mp4box defaults. What I mean...

Can you link to a video with the problem? I'd like to check it out. Also what screen resolution do you use?

It probably is Vista. I'm not sure whether this is an issue still, but MP4Box (the muxer used in Zarx's GUI) used to use the default Windows temporary directory for the jobs it does when it's creating the MP4. Once that is done, it then copies/moves the temp file to your output location. Well, in Mi...

It's been ages since I used Virtualdub, so I may be wrong here. Looks like you are doing 2 pass encodes. I noticed the one before the encode that crashed says aborted. That presumably is the first pass. If that was aborted some time during the encode, then the 2nd pass will only have a partial stats...
