Thanks for any help. I have CCE 2.5 and seem to have trouble encoding. I have the k-lite codec pack installed. If I just drag the file to the CCE window and try to encode, it keeps saying: "couldn't find appropriate video codec for dsvd".
If I try to do it using multi pass, I get the same message, then:
"vinfo_open()failed:***could not open the file (file name).vaf
windows error code ox22"
If I use the plug-in for premiere 6.0 and try to encode I always get:
"frame rate 1/1 is not supported"
only diference I get is when I try to use the multipass with the plug-in and I get "CCE can't export audio wehen you selected VBR"
Any ideas how I can fix all of this? I don't need to encode the audio, just video and I would like the multipass for quality.
Another dumb question, do I need to use Avisynth with CCE? the source is dv footage that I shot and edited on premiere
No help here but I had exactly the same "codec" problem that was never resolved and, since then, I have seen a few posts about this same issue. One person couldn't load DivX, mine was XVID: http://forum.videohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=304929 BTW, I've used the K Lite pack for years with no other problems. From what I've read, Avisynth isn't necessary but helps.
Mistycat, yes, you helped me with this same problem about a week ago. Noone else seems to respond. I checked out your link. Good news is that I finally got TMPGEnc working, just takes forever! I have about an hour of video and at the highest quality, will take 29 hours to process!
29 hours would drive me insane and the useless computer during that time would further annoy me. Reducing the priority of TMPGEnc would fix that but increase the encoding time even more. If your interested and going to be doing much encoding, have a look at Procoder Express: http://www.canopus.com/products/ProCoderExpress/index.php VSO didn't work but, maybe, Procoder will. It's far faster than TMPGEnc and the quality of DVD's is said to be better.
Bufalo, remmber that you can edit the template to ask CCE to work ony to the video.
Second: avoid the codec packs and simply install DivX trial (free for decoding purposes) and XviD (completely free). You'll cover 100% of the AVI files you'll ever find.
Third: what is a dsvcd? You could try to load with an Avisynth scrypt (loading the AVS file with CCE), but I cannot imagine which plugins you would need, to write the ASvisynth scrypt File.
For MPEG-2 files I use AVIDVD to create a D2V file and the command 'mpeg2source' from the MPEG2Dec3dg.dll plugin:
