Re: [Mjpeg-users] How to scale an avi with aspect 4:3 using y4mscaler ?
On Fri, 23 Jan 2004 17:57:04 -0200 [EMAIL PROTECTED] disseminated the following: I want to scale an AVI movie with frame size 544x304 and aspect ratio 4:3 using y4mscaler, in order to produce a SVCD. Try this script, it will do the whole thing for you: http://hammelmann.gmxhome.de/mencvcd like so: mencvcd nameofoutputfile -svcdout -a 2 inputfile.avi If it gives you errors about not knowing the correct framerate or whatever, add these two switches to the command: -tvnorm n -vfr 1 HTH. -- JoeHill ++ ICQ # 280779813 Registered Linux user #282046 Homepage: www.orderinchaos.org +++ I believe what I said yesterday ...

Re: [Mjpeg-users] mencvcd script

Ok, that's really what I was thinking, but since it was available as part of some of the mjpegtools packages on the download page, I was hoping someone might at least give me a clue...and $DEITY knows I need a clue ;-) First, I could not simply do: mencvcd name -svcdout file.avi because I got this error: ++ WARN: [yuvscaler] Could not infer norm (PAL/SECAM or NTSC) from input data (frame size=576x432, frame rate=11988011:50 fps)!!**ERROR: [yuvscaler] No norm specified, cannot determine VCD output size. Please use the -n option!**ERROR: [mpeg2enc] Could not read YUV4MPEG2 header: system error (failed read/write)! The problem ist the framerate specifed: 11988011:50, in combination with you unusal framsize yuvscaler does not know what to do. The framerate: 11988011:50 is closte to 24000:1001, so you should add yuvfps before yuvscaler into the queue and ony change the framerate header to 24000:1001, lookes like that: ... | yuvfps -c -r 24000:1001 | ... You might have to set the framerate in mpeg2enc too. actually, the script does provide and option for setting the framerate to 24000:1001, and since no one had replied by the time I was going to bed, I thought, what the heck, CD's are only about 50c each... I forced my brain to do some logical thinking, and I figured if the sound is *behind* the video, then I need a *lower* framerate. So I did the encoding forcing a framerate of 24000:1001 and *BINGO* it's dead on.

[Mjpeg-users] mencvcd script
I'm not sure if this is the proper channel to ask about the mencvcd script, so let me know in whatever appropriate manner ;-) Anyhow, I have a DivX file which I encoded to SVCD, the picture quality was great but the sound was waay off, and I suspect it is because of my use of incorrect command line switches. First, I could not simply do: mencvcd name -svcdout file.avi because I got this error: ++ WARN: [yuvscaler] Could not infer norm (PAL/SECAM or NTSC) from input data (frame size=576x432, frame rate=11988011:50 fps)!!**ERROR: [yuvscaler] No norm specified, cannot determine VCD output size. Please use the -n option!**ERROR: [mpeg2enc] Could not read YUV4MPEG2 header: system error (failed read/write)! So I did some playing around, and tried this: $mencvcd name -svcdout -vfr 4 -tvnorm n file.avi and it successfully encoded, but the sound was way *behind* the video, by about 15- 20 seconds. Before I try playing around again (this takes a lng time), should I be going for a *higher* video framerate, or lower? I can't wrap this poor holiday-boozing noggin around it right now...

[Mjpeg-users] Errors with compile
Hello all, Brand new user here, had no idea these tools even existed til a few days ago when I bought my DVD player and decided I wanted to see if I could encode some of my DivX movies to SVCD. Good news is, I can. However, I am using Mandrake with mjpegtools-1.6.1-9mdk, and the script I use, mencvcd, takes about 24 hours to encode a 700MB DivX to VCD on my aging P3 866 with 392MB RAM. When I originally tried to compile mjpegtools from source, I was warned that without nasm, performance would be very poor. So I installed the Mandrake nasm package, and proceeded to build. ./configure goes ok, but when I try to 'make' I get this error: /home/joehill/tmp/ccdc9rev.s: Assembler messages: /home/joehill/tmp/ccdc9rev.s:625: Error: symbol `NOT_SUPPORTED' is already defined make: *** [jdapimin.o] Error 1 I read the install instructions carefully, and I believe I have all the required software installed, I am not sure what this error means (actually, this error comes up both when I try to build mjpegtools *and* when I try to build jpeg-mmx). I would like to see if I can improve the speed with which SVCD's are encoded, if I am barking up the wrong tree, please feel free to slap me with trout.
