I use to do that, but I've lost my script too many times. (if you edit the script, the go back to the audio tab and change the bitrate, script is reverted back to the default for which ever input source filter is selected in the encoding preferences)
An "Import AVS as source" would save me a bunch of selecting and deleting text, but if it is a pain in the but to implement, I'll somehow manage to go on living without it. |

@bagheera1
there's something I'm missing. 1. I'm suggesting to add the avs file as input title in main window, not to copy&paste the avs script in 'Title Edit'/'AviSynth'. If you add the avs file as input, then Import() is used. Eventually other avisynth filters are added to reflect the preferences/project settings. 2. Talking about script editing in 'Title Edit' section. If you edit the script ('Auto AVS Script' is off and text become red), then go back to the audio tab and change the bitrate, script simply cannot revert back. It remains modded and red. Please clarify your request, because I think that the solution is already there. Bye |

Quick question: is it possible to create a menu based on chapters and not on titles? I have a music concert and I want to create a menu containing 1 title per song, but leave the whole concert intact. By intact I mean not cutting it up into many titles (1 title per song). I'd prefer not to cut it up, because I just want to be able to watch the whole concert from beginning to end without noticing the inevitable audio gap during title transition caused by the cutting. Cutting up the concert is just the dirty way anyway.
Thanks! Sjakko |

I do add the avs file in the main window. it shows up in the edit window as:
____________________________ Video = Import("D:\Video\movie\movie--simple-avisource.avs") Audio = Import("D:\Video\movie\movie--simple-avisource.avs") Video = Video.ConvertToYV12 #Using DGPulldown to upsize FPS Video = Video.AddBorders(0,24,0,24) Video = Video.Spline16Resize(720,480) AudioDub(Video, Audio) ____________________ my video is allready the size I want, 704 x 480, so I dont need the resize. I then delete the unwanted lines to get: _______________ Import("D:\Video\movie\movie--simple-avisource.avs") ________________ then I change the audio bitrate from 448 to 192, and the script goes back to: ________________ Video = Import("D:\Video\movie\movie--simple-avisource.avs") Audio = Import("D:\Video\movie\movie--simple-avisource.avs") Video = Video.ConvertToYV12 #Using DGPulldown to upsize FPS Video = Video.AddBorders(0,24,0,24) Video = Video.Spline16Resize(720,480) AudioDub(Video, Audio) ___________________ this behavior has been like this for as long as I can remember. I thought it was by design. oh yea, the keep compliant check boxes on the audio/video tab of the preferences has no effect on this behavior. |

@bagheera1
sorry, I really cannot replicate the issue: if I edit the script (by deleting the AddBorders line), it becomes red and then any kind of changes (Video/Audio/Subs/Chapters) will not reset the script back. What release are you using? Do use the latest Alpha, which will become Final within few days. A suggestion: use VerticalResize command (94%) to have the AddBorders filter removed. Unfortunately AVS files DAR is exactly W/H and not a separate flag, like other containers have. @Sjakko right now it is not possible, as you have already discovered. It is an old feat request that I have delayed in the hope that BatchMux would include in a earlier release. Since more a year has passed without news, I will put it in the AVStoDVD ToDo list. Bye |

Hello
AVStoDVD is a fantastic application, however I am having audio issues with it. I am attempting to create a DVD from an MPEG-4 file, but the resulting DVD has no sound. I tried several settings until it finally gave me an error. Could you please tell me how to resolve this problem? I am running Windows 7 64 bit. My log files are attached (there are too many to embed). I apologize if this is a stupid question that I should already know the answer to, but AVStoDVD is more hardcore than what I'm used to and this is a difficult thread to read entirely. Thanks! |

Hi winmaster,
from your log files, video is always frameserved by FFVideoSource and audio output has always 1 instead of 2 channels. Usually these behaviours are determined by (unproper) codecs. Since you have Windows7: 1. Download and install ffdshow (last stable release) 2. Point n°1 is not enough because Windows 7 uses its own DirectShow filters. Download and install 'Windows7 Preferred Filter Tweaker' and select ffdshow for all (available) video and audio filters. 3. Retry with your project, using the 'Preview Clip' feature before starting to encode (to save time). Let me know Bye |

I Have a bug report. It seems that the bit-rate control was slightly off. I ended up with an mpeg-2 too large to fit on a single layer DVD even though I selected dvd-5 as the target.
I was attempting to remove black bars from a letter boxed source and get it to fit on a single dvd as I recorded on high quality on my dvd recorder (aprox 9000 cbr). I would suggest that you decrease the size of the dvd-5 preset as it appears too large. Quote:

@nevragain
log file is missing last lines, where there is the size of the resulting mpg file. BTW, have you tried to select 'DVD Folder' as output? Looking at the filesize of m2v/ac3 files, I am quite sure that resulting VIDEO_TS/AUDIO_TS will fit into a DVD-5. Bye |

Hmm that's the entire log file present in the folder. Windows reports the size of the muxed file as 4.40 GB (4,725,637,120 bytes). I attempted to author the elementary streams using DVAuthorGUI and imgburn stated that the resulting folder would not fit on a dvd+r. I prefer to author manually but I will give dvd folder a try but I wanted the DVD to not have a menu.

Take note that the muxed mpg size could be higher than the elementary m2v+ac3 sizes. I do not know how DVAuthorGUI works, but you can easily use AVStoDVD to author the DVD (by MuxMan). And menu is not mandatory, as a matter of fact, by default, no menu is created. Bye |

Thanks
I'm a newbee at this.
You're program has made it very easy for me. I was trying to use [spam], and didn't even know where to start. Now I'm down to four programs that I use. AVStoDVD, WINAVI, DVD Shrink, and [spam]. Though the last takes to long. When I try to adjust the audio or try to clean up a cam, it can take anywheres from 6 to 24 hours. WINAVI will adjust the Audio in 30 minutes from 50% to 200%. I just wish that AVStoDVD would allow me to adjust the audio and trim also. I'm not worried about cleaning the cams. By the time [spam] is done the DVDrip is out. Thanks again for a great useful program. Last edited by Guest; 14th May 2010 at 13:25. Reason: rule 5 |

Oh my mistake I used muxman by itself not avs2dvd. I didn't run it so there's no log for the avs2dvd > folder.
Update Second encoding seems to have encoded correctly with the log including the lines that were missing last run. I don't know why this would happen but it did I'm authoring now but it looks correctly sized. Last edited by nevragain; 15th May 2010 at 00:19. Reason: update |

I just tried the new release and it eliminated the reappearing script issue I was having. But, I dont know what you mean by "VerticalResize command (94%)". I did notice an error in the Prefrences/system info window. It correctly identifies my CPU and Speed, but says "-1 MB Ram", and the operating system as Windows 2003 sp2, when it is WinXP64 sp2 (I think the OS description is normal though) |
