That sounds suspiciously like a 2GB limit being reached somewhere and when the filesize limit is exceeded the program exits breaking the pipeline.
How large is the input.avi file? What resolution, etc is the input file? If it's 320x240 or so then zooming/scaling that up to full frame DVD is not going to look very good.
the input avi is 1,4GB. The output mpeg2 is around 3,8 GB. The input resolution is 576x320. I watched the output mpeg2 and there is no visible difference in quality as far as I can tell. A very good algorithm it seems.
I'm using mandrake community, kernel 2.6. Filesystems are reiserfs and xfs.
There shouldn't be a filesize limit problem with those filesystem types but perhaps an application was compiled without largefile support?
It seems the mjpeg-tools has large-file size compiled in. I don't see an option for transcode about it, but I saw in their Changelog that a while back support for large AVI-files had entered the code. So, I suppose it's in there. The command without yuvscaler seems to work..although I don't use the "compact" notation of it without the pipes. Only transcode ..... -y mpeg2enc,ac3 ...
The "-O DVD" and "-O SIZE_720x576" are redundant. Once you use "-n p" to specify the video norm then just "-O DVD" is sufficient.
thanks. Good to know that.
Errors:
Couldn't read FRAME HEADER: bad header magic! Couldn't read frame number 182053 End of stream! Normal exit: end of stream with framenumber 182053.
Ah, but which program is producing that? The program name should be part of the message - like this:
**ERROR: [yuvscaler] Could'nt read YUV4MPEG header!
If yuvscaler is producing the error message that means the pipeline into yuvscaler was broken by 'transcode' or 'yuvcorrect'.
Can't tell anymore... But the pipeline broke behind transcode. First I did without yuvcorrect and then with it. So, first it broke at yuvscaler and then at yuvcorrect. But I still find it strange that the command worked without yuvscaler and yuvcorrect (mentionned above)...
What version of mjpegtools are you using? If it's earlier than 1.6.2 (the last release) I would recommend upgrading.
The version before 1.6.2. I'll upgrade...
Thanks for your help already!!
