.avi to dvd pal to ntsc problem

[Furbreath]

I'm using the chickenmans document to try to convert an .avi file and put it in ntsc format.

At the point in the document where it says :

PAL to NTSC
~~~~~~~~

1. A few extra step need to be done in addition to the above if you wish to convert your PAL movies to NTSC, these are:

2. In the Frameserver Tab, tick the "Edit as part of video encoding" option when setting DVD2SVCD up.

3. Once DVD2SVCD is set up, run it. Just before the Editing step begins, an Edit Avisynth Script box will pop-up.

4. Edit the script to include

.
bicubicresize(720,480) <-- change the 576 to 480
Assumefps(23.976) <-- Include this line here
-----------------------------------------------------------
I don't get the above output in the avisynth script box. This is what I get :


LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\DVD2SVCD\AVISYN~1.5PL\Mpeg2dec\MPEG2D~1.DLL")
AVISource("C:\DOCUME~1\HPAUTH~1\Desktop\JAMES_~1.AVI",audio=false)
ConvertToYUY2()
Import("C:\Program Files\DVD2SVCD\Tylo\RoBaConditional.avs")
LanczosResize(496,480)
AddBorders(112,0,112,0)


Any ideas why it appears as such?

thanks,

Its obviously a 4:3 aspect ratio AVI your trying to convert, first you need to select 16:9(borders added, encode as 4:3) would you believe to get a proper 4:3 encode. The next version of DVD2SVCD will have this fixed.

Your AVI is already NTSC as well.
