help with virtual dub

[wontonsilver]

hi everyone , im trying my best to convert my sd anime draft to hd with virtual dub but i have no idea how to use an avisynth script on virtual dub to upscale to 720p or 1080p , ive been trying to use the member on amv l33tmeatwad's upacaling technique but it doesnt seem to be working , any help would be much appreciated

if your just using meatwad's script for upscaling then make sure you have the plugins he provides in the avisynth plugin folder
C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins

then make sure in your script you have it typed right
example:
AviSource("video.avi").animeupscale(strength=2,widescreen=true)

thanks for your response , i realised that i had not been using the right compressor for the script . meatwads script is great , the only problem is that when i try to encode akira in 720 p with the script it says it will take several days ,do you have any suggestions? i would really appreciate it

The script does take time so I would recommend only using it for clips you need. Also, if you are using Akira I would HIGHLY recommend getting the Blu-ray instead of upscaling as the quality would be much better and it would be quicker & easier to work with.
