Are there any plans to put in code for the RotJ subtitles, or are we on our own in that regard? I'm in the process of encoding ANH. Just 96 hours to go!
Someday. I was working on them for a while, but realized I still had too much to do with ANH first. If I remember correctly, I had worked out the subtitles, but the start and stop frames were not sorted yet.

I am still following this thread G-Force,in about 2 weeks I am going to switch everything over to my new PC and then give this encoding a try,the only reason I have been silent is because I was waiting to do the change,I am going to now be using an Intel Quad Core processor at 3.0GHz(I will probably OC ofcourse),with 8 GB's ram,and dual 500 GB hard drives,and dual GeForce 9800 GTX+ Video cards,along with some serious cooling ofcourse,I figured with all the encoding and edits I do I need a serious machine now,plus gearin up for Diablo III LOL.
so after ANH is done,I will be all over you for help on ESB and ROTJ LOL
I will keep you posted

OMG! I can't wait. I would really love to help. Maybe in return for some encodes?!?!

No problem,we together can get a good script for all 3 and I will send them to you,no problem at all.
teamwork man,teamwork.
I would appreciate if you guys could help me out. I'm trying to run the script, and in HCEncoder I keep getting the error "There is no function named "Clense"". Have any of you ever seen that or have any idea what the issue might be? Thanks much.
Greg
Missing plugin, maybe?
On a different note, I'm assembling Empire now. Has anyone noticed an occasional diagonal (high left to lower right) streaking, particularly during visually busy scenes (like the lost in the snow stuff, or the duel in the carbon-freeze chamber)? Is this a by-product of the script; an encoder error, or is it in the GOUT (though I can't seem to see it there).

Try to install the complete plugins from the plugin-package; you get them here.
Maybe this helps.

Haven't notice this, but I hadn't time to watch the whole movie yet.

Clense is a filter that's contained in the RemoveGrain dll.

Thanks for the info. I have the latest removegrain.dll files in the plugins directory. I read the following post which talks about this same issue and that the "temporal" dll's fix the issue. When I install them, I then get errors saying that the removegrain.dll's cannot be loaded, even though they are in the plugins directory. I appreciate all of your help. Been trying to get this script to work for about three months now and it is getting frustrating.

I believe I had the removegrain dll's from the package, but it was causing the HCendor gui to crash. Doing some reading, I updated to the latest removegrain package. Should also mention using HCEncoder .23 and Avisynth 2.5.8 beta. I see that the full 2.5.8 is out, so I will upgrade though I'm not sure if that will have any bearing.

Could you post a screen capture of this?

Still having issues with the "clense" function. I have updated to the full release of avisynth 2.5.8 (had the beta). Downloaded the package above which contains removegrain.dll. When I use the version that is contained within, HCencoder crashes. When I update to the latest removegrain (1.0), I don't get the "clense" errors anymore, but then get errors regarding "unable to load removegrain". Did no one else get these errors when trying to run the script? Does anyone have the older versions of removegrain.dll, like the .6 version?
This is the RemoveGrain.dll I used for my encodings. Everything worked fine.
Do you have the fftw3.dll in your Windows-system32-folder? If not, copy it into this folder.
I finally got past the error. Thanks to all of you for your helpfulness. I really appreciate it.
Sure. I'll put up a couple as it can be hard to see in stills. These are off of the uncompressed, filtered AVI, and exported from Virtualdub.

I just grabbed these as an example, it occurs repeatedly throughout the film (ANH also) in several places.
I can see what you are talking about in the 4th and the last one. I'm gonna have to get back to you on this issue.

Cool...I'm glad you were able to make something out of those at all, as I hadn't realized just how hard it is to see those in stills, though it's quite apparent in motion.
Well, I finally had some time to look into this. I can't reproduce the lines that I see in your screen caps. At this point I would suggest looking at that frame processed throught the script, but previous to encoding and let me know the results so that we can determine if it's a Avisynth plugin issue or encoder related.
INv8r's problem got me to check this out with ESB finally, and I did notice that the final crop values need to be modified slightly. I will update the script once I get the correct values (and subtitles!) for ROTJ in there as well.
-G
Weeellllll....I've just checked it out again, and it's not apparent in the GOUT. I say apparent, as I keep almost thinking I'm seeing it, but can't quite decide if it's there or not. I dropped the demuxed raw GOUT mpeg into Virtualdub, and checked out the shots I posted; no streaks evident. Next, I dropped in the AVS script (v3.)17), and there they are again, same places. Weird. I'll post pics later.

INv8r,
I'm guessing that if you're not seeing it in the raw GOUT, and you ARE seeing it in the Avisynth script previous to encoding, it must be an issue with Avisynth. I haven't been keeping up to date on the latest Avisynth version and plugin versions, so maybe one of those is the culprit. I know there is a new version of MVTools out, so you may try going back to an older rev, or even an older Avisynth.

Hello All,
Having an issue with Rejig. I used G-Forces script and HCEncoder and got the encoding of a New Hope finished. Now trying to use Rejig to put it all back together. I use the DVD author mode and fill out the information, but the file it creates grows to large that eventually my hard drive fills up. I've seen the file it creates get up to 56GB before the drive runs out of space and the program crashes. I know this isn't right so I was wondering if any had some advice or thoughts on what I might be doing wrong? Thanks
Okay, had a little more time tonight to try and figure out where things were going wrong. It looks like it's in whatever is being referenced in the local stabilization part of the script. If I comment out all of that section (apart from the Source, Sigma, and Filt lines) the problem is gone. Can someone give me a clue as to what needs to be replaced on my end in that case? Various generations of MVTools didn't seem to solve the problem at all (tried .9, .9.9.1, and 1.4.4.4.1). I installed the plugins as a single batch put together for this script, and I'm not sure what I'm looking for; MVTools of yet another version, MVAnalyse, RemoveGrain, Median1, or something else entirely?
As for Rejig, I also had trouble with it. I went through IFOedit intially, which worked, but ended up putting the whole thing together at work in DVDLab Pro, as I also added a couple of original teasers, trailers, and the ISOMix score-only track and needed a new menu.
Never used ReJig; a combination of PgcDemux, Muxman and VobBlanker works for me.

INv8r,
try re-running the script with just the filt line replaced with "filt=source". this will eliminate the fft filter as a possible culprit. The only other thing I can think of is a different version of RemoveGrain, or a different version of Avisynth.
