Problem with rendering video

rpgfan2 · Post by **rpgfan2** » Mon Aug 16, 2004 4:02 pm

Whenever I render my video in Vegas 5 I get lines going across the video as if the frame rate is set wrong. It looks like the original video is too fast and the rendered video cant keep up. Here is what my settings look like.

there a lot different things up there and I think I've tried changing them all, but I cant seem to get those lines out.

here is an example of the lines I'm speaking of.

any help would be appreciated. thanks.

It's called Interlacing. Deinterlace the export once it's exported.

Your field order doesn't match. Change it to "Lower field first".

thanks NicholasDW and Scintilla. I did what both of you said. I changed the Field order to Lower field first and I changed the Deinterlace method to blend fields and reduced the interlace flicker on my imported files. It got much better but when I played it in my Divx player I could still see some lines. Although, when I opened that same rendered file in windows media player and in adobe premiere there were no lines. So I think there might be a problem with Divx. Oh well. Thanks again.

-im not sure what you meant when you said "the export". Is that the same thing as the render. I in AP it says export and in Vegas it says render so I'm assuming they are the same.

Well... what NDW was really suggesting was to take your exported(/rendered) AVI file and run that through an inverse telecine or deinterlace (preferably in AVISynth), not to change the deinterlacing settings on the source files.

I'm new at this and was just messing around, trying to get up to were I can splice and stuff, but I got stuck at the deinterlacing part. I didn't understand what the guide was saying about typing stuff somewhere. Can anyone help me with this problem. Also any other help to get me up and running would also be apprieciated.

P.S. And by new I mean really new. I have never made a single AMV but have always loved them and always wanted to make them but had no clue how.

Hey,

AVISynth (which is what I assume you're trying to use for to deinterlace, since you said you were following The Guides) doesn't work like most programs you're familiar with.

It's a script-based frameserver: you type up scripts, save them with the .AVS extension, and then open them in a video editor or player. AVISynth does all its work behind the scenes, making the program you're opening the file in think it's looking at an honest-to-goodness AVI file.

When you see commands like Telecide(order=1,post=4) in the guides, you're usually supposed to add those to your script file. Type up your script in Notepad or any other text editor and save it with a .AVS extension. (Be sure to set the file type to "All files" when saving; otherwise Notepad will automatically tack a .TXT onto the filename, which is not what you want.)

For example, here's the contents of one of my scripts used to serve up an episode of Kare Kano:
SetMemoryMax(5)
MPEG2Source("K:\source\D2Vs\kk8.d2v")
Telecide(1,post=4)
Decimate(5)
Crop(8,0,-8,0)
LanczosResize(720,480)

The filename is kk8.avs. If your script doesn't have the .AVS extension, AVISynth won't know it's supposed to be a script, and it won't work.

I hope this helps. Thanks again and have fun!! ^_^

Scintilla.

Thanks Scintilla. I put in the stuff you did for telecide and decimate and i see no interlacing anymore, but I could be just missing it. I hope I can come to you when I need more help again, which is probably very soon.
