Gordian Knot - Seems to be broken for me...

[eli2k]

Okay, I installed DVX recently and found out it didn't work as well as I wanted it to. Probably because I didn't look at it really closely. But then I tried to encode with Gordian Knot and I keep getting errors all over.

Errors begin after audio is encoded and when video encoding starts:

What is wrong. Is the DivX codec messed up?

Are you using the divx 5.03 codec? It is incompatible with GordionKnot.

[eli2k]

I'm not sure. It might have been installed by that DVX System Pack, but I removed it. In Device Manager under Video Codecs, there is DivX 5.02 installed, and I selected Divx 5 codec in GK. DVX shows 5.03 in there for some reason, along with 5.02.

re-install divx 5.0.2

No, that did not fix that problem, either.

when you open the avs file, can you scroll through the film?

[eli2k]

What program should I be using to open the AVS file? AVISynth? THe AVS file is only 2KB in size, too.

I actually quit encoding for a month or so cause d5 had me in such a tizzy because it would always detect 0 frames

I didn't realize there was a system pack ( http://gknot.doom9.org/Software/Gord....1.0.Setup.exe )

Hopefully this solves your problems as it did mine (cause good god that's friggin annoying!!!)

Ah-ha! Installing system pack made it work! Thanks t3ch.

Is there anyway to use Avisynth 2.5 with Gordian Knot? That is faster than the one with Gordion KNot, right, since it's using 2.07 or something right now...?
