Precise DVD2AVI and AVISYNTH settings (they look ok?)

[kearlywi]

Ok I'm attempting to use Adobe Premiere editing method #3 as detailed in EADFAG. (I had previously used a variation of method #1, engineered by myself through pure experimentation, and was told I was "Wrong. Completely").

Well it was a bitter pill to swallow but since AMV'ing means so much to me I figured I'd spend a little extra effort and use the highest recommended method so that I could better myself as well as my final product.

That being said, I just wanted to give you my exact DVD2AVI and AVISYNTH settings and script (because if there is anything wrong with them it will cause trouble later). I know a lot of newbs are struggling to grasp these basic programs, so hopefully it will help them as well. (Hey I was a Computer Science major once, and look at how many posts I've made!)

DVD2AVI 'VIDEO' settings

iDTC algorithm: 32-bit SSE MMX
Field operation: NONE (used to be "forced film," as some of you may remember)
Colorspace: YUV 4:2:2
YUV -> RGB: PC scale
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Exact AVSynth script (assume all directories valid)

MPEG2source("F:\berserk vol 1\berserk vol 1.d2v")
Telecide()
Decimate(cycle=5)
FieldDeinterlace()
WAVSource("F:\berserk vol 1\berserk vol 1 AC3 T01 2_0ch 192Kbps 48KHz.wav")
AudioDub(MPEG2Source("F:\berserk vol 1\berserk vol 1.d2v"),WAVSource("F:\berserk vol 1\berserk vol 1 AC3 T01 2_0ch 192Kbps 48KHz.wav"))

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'd just like to note that 'Telecide', 'Decimate', and 'Field Deinterlace' are helpful but fail to completely deinterlace my VOB files (although, lol, that was back when I was using "forced film" so it may no longer be the case). Also you may be wondering why I am including audio. Lets just say I'm going to put it to use.

Again I am going to Use METHOD 3, and Ermac (or AD) seemed to advocate editing with progressive (deinterlaced) footage but exporting possibly with interlaced. Should I try exporting both ways or is one or the other generally better? (Interlaced doesnt bother me, unless of course I can see it )

I just saw "RahXephon - Euphoria." Was that really done with Premiere?! Amazing. It doesnt surprise me that it is currently ranked #1.

Here we fucking go AGAIN WITH EUPHORIA. SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT FUCKING EUPHORIA! IT WAS NOT FUCKING MADE IN PREMIERE! SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT IT GODDAMN IT!

Look I didnt say it was so change your tampon. I suspected it was WAY too nice for premiere anyway. Frankly, I feel a little better that it wasnt, because I COULDN'T figure out how the hell he/she was pulling of some of those effects.

Anyway anyone see anything wrong with my code/settings?

Ignore him. He's always like this.

I don't know how the hell he managed it but those were the programs he used. I'm betting it took a lot of effort and time.

And your scripts look fine to me but I'm not the best person to ask really. As long as they work for you it's all good. If you don't like that deinterlacer try using some of the other ones suggested in the guide.

Considering the fucking question has been asked 50 million times, I'm sick and tired of the bullshit. Like Koop said [Ironic, isn't it?], it's not the editing program(s), but the editor.
