Hi,
I am converting an excellent quality DivX file to SVCD using TMPGEnc - have done this several times to VCD format with great results.
After reencoding this particular rip, however, I end up with a large amount of Green macro-blocks that sometimes coat the whole screen.
Anyone else with this experience or a possible solution? I have considered using color correction filters, but really have no idea how to use them or if they will solve this particular problem.
Thanks

You need to burn it onto a better quality disk

If it has the green blocks on the PC when played back from the HD then it is not the disc. I would definitely run it through VDub and apply some filters to clean it up and frameserve it to the encoder. The problem with encoding from DivX is that it is a very lossy codec. With a source that compressed the encoder has very little to work with. By adding some filtering you can beef up the video for the encoder. Color correction is not the filter you want, the green is actually missing video, kind of like holes of missing data. Deinterlacing may give you more video by combining the 2 fields. A little noise filtering may help as well. You are going to have to experiment.

u can use TMPGenc. to turn it into a vcd or svcd. the results are rather good.

If the Green blocks aren"t in the source file then i Think you just need to raise the priority of the "Direct show" file reader in the Vfapi Plugins...
