it should pop up in the list of codecs that you can export with out of vegas, and it should also pop up in the codecs list of vdubmod

For the settings on the zarx264gui, set it to mode: constant quality and quantizer: 18.

thxs for that but, i have one problem every time i encode using huffyuv and when i try to open the vid in zarx264 gui it says "Your input video must be in Yv12 colorspace. You can fix this by adding 'ConvertToYv12()' to teh end of your AviSynth script." i dont understand that could someone help../ :(

Take ConvertToYv12() and copy/paste it to the end of your script. That will fix everything.

Change your avisynth code to:

Code: Select all

avisource("C:\yourvideopath\yourvideofile.avi")
converttoyv12()
[/code]

Yep. Downloaded/Raw/Capture Card footage will always (generally) be a lot worse than DVD footage.

What kind of footage do you have?
