Okay... I have been trying to deinterlace for 2 weeks now...

[taifunbrowser]

I read all the guides on deinterlacing, and every time I run an avs script, it says it cant find the file, even though I gave it the correct path! the frustration has led me to make 2 creative, but horrible graphiced amvs that arent deinterlaced, and I'm tired of getting opinions that say "its too fuzzy" I KNOW ITS FUZZY!!!! oh well, can someone PLEASE tell me what I'm doing wrong??? lolz

is the AMV that you made? there's a lot of Color-Shimmering going on there!

de-interlacing is something best left to a Video Editor, but most people on these
boards use VirtualDub to de-interlace each section of their Videos' before they
Encode them to what ever their editors may be.

I use VirtualDub as much as possible, when making an AMV, and then let my
editor clip-and-crop the sections together. After all the sections are looking
the way I want them to, then its back to VirtualDub for the final encoding of
my AMV.

btw, please do not mark you next AMV as .avi if it is a .wmv - like this one is!
( it confuses newbe's when the files are mis-labeled. )

Um, not quite. Deinterlacing is usually done using AVIsynth, sometimes using VirtualDub(Mod) to export the deinterlaced footage.

Look in the READBAG.

Every time I try to put my clips into virtual dub, it says there is a
"bad format" there... it says its an .avi file, so why cant I put it in? oh, and I didnt notice I had it said as an avi... it was my first movie lolz

I already looked there, and I tried to make an avisynth script, but then the avisynth says it "cant find the file" I give it the exact same location too! (C:/Documents and settings/Ben Braun/Desktop/AMV/Riverofdreams.avi!!!
I put that in, and it says it couldnt find it (I just copied and pasted the location windows said it was at) plz help! lol

Try using VirtualDubMod instead.

Oh, and please copy and paste your exact script. There might be a problem there.

kk...
its:

AVISource("C:\Documents and Settings\Ben Braun\Desktop\River of Dreams\The River Of Dreams.avi")
Telecide()
Decimate(5)

[taifunbrowser]

ok, I'll try the virtualdubmod... does it have some like, extra features or something? (compared to just plain virtualdub)
ok... let me try that

[Kalium]

Are you using AVISynth 2 or 2.5?

If you're using 2.5, then that script won't work. You'll need to use something more like this:

Code: Select all

mpeg2source(<blah>.d2v)
telecide(order=1)
decimate(2)

As for VirtualDubMod, it's a modified form of VirtualDub that adds some things (like AVS handling, I believe).

[taifunbrowser]

ok, on this version, now it says that "avs files are not supported"
hmm... was this because I made it in wmm?? or, can I only deinterlace BEFORE I make the vid? lol.
