Zarxgui - More frames on the first pass than on the second?

[Ileia]

I'm encoding a few videos, and I'm doing them all in Zarxgui, no problems except on one video, I keep getting an error that there are more frames on the first pass than on the second. Then Zarxgui stops encoding and I can go no further. It's a huffy that I'm trying to encode (same as all the other videos that have worked). (via AVS, of course) with mp3 audio. I tried re-exporting those files, and double checked to make sure everything was the same on them that it was on the videos that worked, and still no luck. What am I doing wrong here?

I don't use Zarx's GUI, I use MeGUI or the commandline, but my first instinct would be to ask what filter is being used to load the video? AVISource, DirectShowSource, etc. I know frame issues can arise with DirectShowSource, but I've never heard of them coming from AVISource. If it's coming from some other function, it'd be hard to tell without seeing the script.

it was AVISource, after trying several different things, I just settled for making an xvid. *shrug* If it was a problem with the script, I'd imagine I'd get the same error for every video I've encoded so far, and it's just the one.

Sounds like a bug - probably in AviSynth itself. Try processing the script in vdub to produce a final quality huffyuv and then encode to h.264.
Could you post the script?

Just out of interest... Could you post the frame counts (as reported by vdub) for all the huffyuv files you have processed plus the problem one?

(Sorry about the double post.)
