I tried some more tests and the problem appears to be solved. It was a strange one: My file names had the text "AVISource" in them. Your program cannot use AVISource for AC3 audio, so it appears to automatically change every instance of AVISource to DirectShowSource. Unfortunately, in my case, that meant the Avisynth script was looking for audio in a file that didn't exist.

My solution was to rename AVISource in my file names to AVIS. Everything seems to work now.

AVISource cannot read AC3 audio, so AVStoDVD forces DirectShowSource if AC3 audio (to be encoded) is found. It adds a comment to the script:

Code:

#'AVISource' replaced with 'DirectShowSource' for AC3 audio support

Could you post your AVS script or (better) the entire log file?

Here is the log file with my comments. The file name includes the text "AVISource" which is causing the error.

Thanks, you found a little bug in the AVS script analisys routine.

I will fix in next release

Bye

carlmart · 7th April 2009, 02:31

I'm getting this:

Run-time error '383'.
'Text' property is read-only.

What might be happening and what can I do to solve it?

It happened both in versions 2.1.3 and 2.1.4.

MrC · 7th April 2009, 19:11

Well, the message is very generic. Could you specify when it happens? If the cause is sistematic is much better.

Well, I have a DVD that I demuxed, both with PgcDemux and DGIndex, and when I load the files I get that message. It doesn't happen with other files I loaded.

MrC · 10th April 2009, 20:22

You are saying that you have 2 files: one m2v and one ac3, do you? When does the error message come out? When you add them to the titles list? Or when you try to edit the title?

:?

Bye

rendez2k · 10th April 2009, 21:44

I think I've asked a similar question before, but is there anyway to edit the avg video bitrate for all the added files in one go? I've added 17 videos and it would be handy to be able to globally set them to the value I need.

I get to load the file, but when I click on Edit Title settings I get that message.

MrC · 11th April 2009, 15:02

@calmart

What kind of audio/video streams are contained in the file that gives you the error?

@rendez2k

No way right now to set one bitrate for all (17! wow!) titles. Actual best approach is to play with 'Custom DVD Size' to find the filesize that fit the wanted bitrate.

It's an m2v file that was demuxed from the DVD with PgcDemux.

I have a little problem here with audio sync. I have aAVI file with XVID video and AC3 audio, and when I try to create a DVD, the audio is out of sync. I can't preview and use delay because no audio in the preview. Is this a limitation of AVS2DVD, or is there some other workaround? I guess I could make a pass and then use FFDshow to figure the delay, and then make a second pass, but that seems a little involved.

Run your files through AVI-Mux GUI before conversion to DVD, if there are any sync issues they will show up & AVI-Mux GUI will fix the problem(Read the online manual)

Good Luck.

MrC · 12th April 2009, 22:37

@calmart

And the audio stream? Is it an AC3? I would try to reset AVStoDVD settings by pressing 'Option'/'Restore default settings'.

@Richardw322

wg' suggestion is good. BTW another path (that will lead to audio re-encoding) could be: go to 'Settings'/'AudioVideo' and toggle off 'Keep DVD compliant audio'. Audio preview will be activated and you can play with 'DelayAudio'.

There's no AC3 stream to be loaded: the file is demuxed. The video I am loading IS the demuxed video.

Pressing "Option'/'Restore default settings" just deletes my input.

MrC · 13th April 2009, 17:03

You are saying that you are loading a single m2v file without audio? It should be an easy scenario...

Could you please take a shot of the main AVStoDVD form with the error message box and post it here?

Bye

Richardw322 · 13th April 2009, 23:13

wg, That worked a charm. Made a great DVD.

MrC: Another good suggustion, that would have worked. Another question. I like to make DVD's with a single title, but a menu. That leaves me with a play all button, and the thumbnail button. Seems redundent to me. Any way to get rid of one or the other? I tried shrinking the thumbnail to 4x2, but then I get "Can't resize image" on the menu. (Made that damn thing 4 times yesterday before I was happy with it, between the audio and the menu).

Thanks guys!

OK. Here it is the error message screen,

http://forum.doom9.org/attachment.ph...1&d=1239663373

What can you make of it?

carlmart · 15th April 2009, 11:43

Sometimes when I press the Preview Title Output button, what I get is an upside down image.

This usually turns out right when conversion is finished. But I had some (rare) cases when this doesn't happen.

Why's that and what (script line?) puts things back as they should?
