Problems with d2v

Okay, this might have been answered several times before and I'm too lazy to look through the hundreds of threads that might even have a slim notification on it.

I have just ripped my footage using the DVD Decrypter and making my project file vhd.dv2. Now the next thing after that was to create the AVS file for it so that I can edit the stuff from it. I have read the guides about it, but its still messing up with:

AviSynth open failure:
Unrecognised exception!
<C:\anime\vhd\vhd.avs, line3)

What is going on? Here is what I got for the avisynth stuff. if anything is wrong or needs to be added, please tell. Cheers.

MPEG2Source("C:\Anime\VHD\VHD.d2v")
AssumeFPS(24)
Telecide(post=false)

Hmm, you know there is a sticky at the top of this forum that specifically mentions what you are talking about.

Also, depending on which version of what you have you might try altering line 3 like so any other problems aside:

Telecide()

or

Telecide(0)
#if you followed the guides and reversed the field order

It was not the telecide to begin with... I tried it with and without it. Hopefully I can work this out because I am in dire need to start my project.

Thanks for the info

Your error message said line 3. In your post Telecide was your line 3.

What is the new message you get when you take it out?

IE:what happens when you try to just load your source?

Also, are you using dvd2avi version 1.76? that one, and the donald graft one seem to work best.

Okay I take it out and the I have the

MPEG2Source("C:\anime\vampirehd.d2v")

in there. now it says line 1.

I've got the AMVAPP programs as well as the Advanced pack.

I've tried just doing it again but that hasn't work, I think I am going to try and get AVISynth 2.5 however.
You got msn?

I must add this to the sticky...

Get the fixed version of DVD2AVI + MPEG2DEC3 from here (it is in the zip 'decodefix100'). If you do this don't use the d2v created by Smartripper, delete it and recreate it using the DVD2AVI you just downloaded.

Also, make sure there are no other versions of DVD2AVI on your hard disk.

Opps just noticed that. The filter I recommended is for v2.5, so yeah - get it.

I had this problem too, when I did it what generated it was that I changed the foldernames after I generated the .d2v file but before I wrote my .avs file. Turns out that .d2v also references location inside of itself. You can either make another .d2v file from your new folder location or you can edit your current .d2v file with notepad and change the file locations in the first few lines. I have not tested the second method as I only figured out what was happening a few minutes ago.
