Green band on the right side

[techreactor]

Does anyone know about it, its not present on the DVD but I am getting it while using DVD-RB on the whole movie. I have tried removing the Interlaced tag, but still the band stays. Even if I open the .avs directly using MPC, I can see it. So its not a DVD-RB problem. Its a PAL DVD. AVS script as below:

#------------------
# AVS File Created by DVD Rebuilder 
# VOBID:02, CELLID:01
#------------------
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\DVD-RB PRO\DGDecode.dll")
mpeg2source("E:\TEMP\D2VAVS\V01.D2V",idct=6)
trim(1,3640)
ConvertToYV12(interlaced=true)

looks like a bad YV12 decoder, a good fix is to download & install xvid. also you can remove the converttoyv12 altogether, DVDs are already YV12

[blutach]

And in fact, if you are using Procoder, for example, you'll want to convert to YUY2.

CCE also requires YUY2 input, but it will perform colourspace conversions itself if necessary. i think DVDRB automatically adds the appropriate line to the script depending on the encoder

Maybe this problem is caused by a wrong image resolution. If the original is 704x576 and the output is 720x576 the missing part is filled with null bytes, and this well known green colour is exactly what is displayed for YUY2 with all components equal to 0.
Maybe you should add a black border or a resize in the AVS script to force the original resolution to 720x576.
Just my 2 cents...

[anonymez]

didn't know there were commercial DVDs at 704x576, only ever encountered DVB streams from one of our TV networks at that res (which then changed to 720 at the end of last year). it can happen with non mod16 resolutions, but 704 is divisible by 16

[r0lZ]

704 is allowed by the DVD-Video standard (as well as 352), although this resolution is rarely used on commercial DVDs.
BTW, I've loaded the image in an editor, and the green border begins exactly at X position 705, so I guess I'm right.

[anonymez]

you're right, but judging from the file name, the screenshot is from MPC's save image function, which does not resize. there is no resizing in the script either so the source seems to be 720

[r0lZ]

The image is extracted from the reauthored DVD. It's not a guarantee that the original has the same resolution. If it is in 704x576, there might be a bug in DVD-RB.
techreactor is the only one that can confirm that...

I think that the problem might also be caused by a wrong resolution stored in Domain Stream Attributes in the IFOs. Maybe MPC uses it to determine the size of its window, and doesn't fill it completely?

but how do we know that? could be from the avisynth script

we play the waiting game

[r0lZ]

Right. In this case, it's a bug in a DirectX or AVS filter.

[techreactor]

Removed the convertto() line alltogether, no change in the result. Disc is 4:3 AR.

My divx encoder works fine otherwise.

[r0lZ]

Can you verify the resolution of the original DVD?

Yes, its from the avisynth script, I stopped encoding once I saw the preview.

Whats the accurate way to do it ???, problem could be similar to this
