Please can anyone help with a problem with side borders?

Hi. Im tying to extract an music video off a DVD. Ive ripped the chapter with DVD Decrypter, and used DVD2SVCD to rip to mpeg. The problem is, Im getting black borders to the left and the right of the picture. 2 thirds of the screen size is being wasted. Ive checked the FAQ's and there doesnt seem to be anything regarding this problem. If anyone could help I would be very grateful. nathan

Please could you post your Avisynth script file from your project folder? Cheers Nick

Is this what you mean or the actual file?

Look for "AviSynth_Script_file.avs" It is an ASCII file. You can open it with notepad jsoto

If its a fullscreen 4:3 clip and in D2S you selected "4:3 (No Borders encode as 4:3)", then simply select "16:9 (Borders added encode as 4:3)" instead and it will fix your problem. This annomaly has been fixed in the yet to be released next version of D2S.

In a word... No.

I think we should get a copy of the unreleased version since DVD2SVCD has disappeared :(

Hey nick, how about adding the script you once gave me for 1:1 AVI's to a sticky or some such, at least until the next version is released for your convenience [AVISYNTH_BilinearResize_nosideborders] 0=Import(!RoBaConditional.avs) 1=BilinearResize(^BorderLeft+^BorderRight+^TargetWidth,^TargetHeight) 2=AddBorders(0,^BorderTop,0,^BorderBottom) !RoBaConditional.avs=C:\Programs\DVD2SVCD\Tylo\RoBaConditional.avs [AVISYNTH_LanczosResize_nosideborders] 0=Import(!RoBaConditional.avs) 1=LanczosResize(^BorderLeft+^BorderRight+^TargetWidth,^TargetHeight) 2=AddBorders(0,^BorderTop,0,^BorderBottom) !RoBaConditional.avs=C:\Programs\DVD2SVCD\Tylo\RoBaConditional.avs [AVISYNTH_BicubicResize_nosideborders] 0=BicubicResize(^BorderLeft+^TargetWidth+^BorderRight,^TargetHeight,^b_value,^c_value) 1=AddBorders(0,^BorderTop,0,^BorderBottom) ^b_value=0.0 ^c_value=0.6 cheers

Finally!. Very happy to see you again! Yes, we were really worried about you...Please don't do it again!. jsoto

All hail D2S ! =) Good to see you around maybe you could bring RB with you on your comeback, so we'd have CCE 2.7 support in EclCCE for the upcoming version :sly:
