Permanent subs (SSA) in SVCD, script

andy

Using DVD2SVCD I tried to put permanent subs (in formar of ssa) into video stream (stopped process before CCE) and put some new lines in Avisynth script (using VirtualDub Subtitler plugin) - but cce reported following:

Executing Cinema Craft Encoder.
Unknown FPS. CCE Reported 2 FPS number

My AVS script was:

LoadPlugin(quot;C:\DVD2SVCD\MPEG2DEC\MPEG2DEC.DLLquot;)
function VD_Subtitler(clip clip, string filename)
{ LoadVirtualdubPlugin(c:\Dvd2svcd\Avisynth\subtitler.vdfquot;, quot;_VD_Subtitlerquot;) return clip._VD_Subtitler(1, filename)
}
mpeg2source(quot;C:\DVD2SVCD\POMOCNY\DVD2AV~1.D2Vquot;)
TemporalSmoother(2,1)
BicubicResize(480,576,0.00,0.75)
VD_Subtitler(clip, quot;c:\Dvd2svcd\pomocny\Gromit-Sk-ssa.ssaquot;)
ResampleAudio(44100)

Any advice what´s wrong?

Thanx

2 FPS in CCE = error message from avisynth

which version of dvd2svcd are you using?

does it work without the added lines?

Last but one version of DVD2SVCD.
Be honest I have not tried to make this MPEG file without subtitles, OK, I do this and then I will make report...

i'll keep track of this thread

Also, did you drop your .avs file onto VirtualDub for a basic sanity check first?

No, I will!

Thanx.

So - I made some checks as advised:

Here are the results:

1. DVD2SVCD run smoothly when no changes in Avisynth script (DVD source is OK)

2. When new lines of VirtualDub Subtitler plugin been added in script as mentioned in my previous posts, CCE stopped with a note: 2 FPS in CCE = error message from avisynth.

3. When checked .avs script in VirtualDub I received an error - quot;clip not knownquot; - so an error is in specifying clip (used in function VD_Subtitler(clip clip, string filename)).

Any advise what to add to avs. script?

I did, just wanted to continue in thread.

I've had good results with VobSub, which I recommend, but I've never tried the VirtualDub subtitler.  I think you can convert your subtitles to VobSub format and use VobSub, if you feel like trying something different.

I would be pleased to use your procedure - I tried to use DVD2SVCD and CCE encoding + Avisynth + VirtualDub Subtitler function in .AVS script - but no success, CCE refuses script, something wrong or missing...

Give me more details - in what format convert my subs, which soft you recommend, how to use frameserving and CCE - or TMPGEnc

Thanx

Check out this thread:

showthread.ph...ghlight=vobsub

Not for me - I have no subs .ifo etc - not ripped subs from DVD but own ones. Yesterday I tried Subtitler plugin in VirtualDub frameserver to TMPGEnc...- today I will see results...

But so far no success in making new script for Avisynth and DVBD2SVCD
