Strange Script Issues

Recently, AviSynth has been giving me some grief.

I'm making a script for basic, US Region 1 DVDs, using VicBond007's guide. It seems to work fine at first, but when opened in Vdub, it has a green bar on the left hand side of the image. This can be cropped out, but that totally screws up the aspect ratio. Additionally, if I try to scrub, play, or save the video, Vdub crashes.

This all wouldn't be much of a problem, since I usually import my scripts right into Premier, but since this started happening, I can't scrub through my scripted video in Premier either (it shows a few frames then the monitor window goes black).

Does anyone have a clue as to what's causing this and how I can fix it? I'm running Premier Pro 1.5 and AMVapp 3.0 beta. My script and a screenshot of the video in Vdub are below:

Code: Select all

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\MPEG2Dec3.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Decomb521.dll")
MPEG2Source("E:\DVD Rips\The Island\IslandD2V.d2v", idct=5, iPP=true)
Telecide(order=0)

DGIndex, I'm assuming.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: do not use MPEG2Dec3, use MPEG2Dec3DG if you made your D2V files with DVD2AVI.

I knew there was a good reason I could never recommend VicBond007's guide.

VicBond's guide is from 2004 which is 'a long time ago' in the internet age.

Precisely. VicBond's guide worked great about two years ago, but now it's a little out of date.

are you using ver 2.57 of AVISynth? Go back to 2.56 and the green bar should disappear... I had this same problem and it took me much to long to figure it out why it was happening...
