Experiencing Difficulty Using DVD RB and CCE? If So, Then Ask Your Questions Here.

The movie playing shows the app is working correctly, that is when it plays properly as you said. You don't need to worry about any error codes if it plays and looks good. If you like the way CCE looks, the basic is about $58 dollars at http://www.VisibleLight.com . So far, a lot of us tend to like the CCE Basic with RB. Glad to see you got it going.

 

Was just looking at the Visible Light site, now if I get the basic do I have to do anything else in setup. Right now it just has the 2.5 path, do I have to uninstall that one before I put in the basic, or do I have to uninstall RB again. Hate to spend the money if it is going to get crazy again.

If you are getting the "obsolete D2V" message -- it sounds a lot like you are pointing to the wrong DGDECODE.DLL...

 

How do I change this, and where do I look?

 

Brobear,

I just installed the update to rc 6 the way I have done all the new updates.I let everything defalt. Perhaps I need to check the setup

 

arniebear,

There is a seperate path for cce basic. You can leave path to cce sp 2.5 as it is. You'll have to fill in the path for basic once it's downloaded. Mine looks like this: C:/custom technology/cinema craft encoder basic/cce2.exe.

 

@Mort81

Thanks, will give a try if I every get the rest sorted. It is going to get easier I hope

 

Datman,
Updating normally leaves your settings alone. Completely deleting and installing the app fresh puts things back to default. I updated my app and it used my previous settings and worked perfectly. Doesn't sound as though the problem is with RB unless something happened to affect the files.

 

Arniebear
Options -> Setup, click the folder in line with Path to CCE Basic and the window opens to browse to the CCE folder (wherever you put it) where you select the CCE Basic exe file. Nothing to it. You can delete the SP trial at that point unless you just like videos with the CCE logo watermark on the screen.

On the matter of DGDecode, your app should be pointing to the version that came with RB and in the RB folder. You can check that path in Setup as well.

 

RB is pointing to that path, however what is AviSynth supposed to do because I cannot get it to open. Does it just run in the background, and the files that are labeled avs won't open, all I get is Windows does not know how to open this file does not know what program created it. Is this supposed to be that way?

 

I played the dvds that failed they seem to play fine till the end. They are missing the last chapter or 2 the dvd play just freezes.

I reprocessed and I'm burning side a and it seems to be working

I check the setup it looks fine

 

arniebear

Yes it just runs in the background.

brobear it's more like you're agreeing with my point.

 

just burned side a with no error/ I'll do side b now. Who knows????

 

Datman,
I didn't say play them, I meant to check them with an app to see if there are any problems that might affect the recording of the original. Minor faults will sometimes play but not record. As for deleting portions of a DVD, that usually doesn't happen unless there is a setting invoked that might accidentally cause it. Something like the steal option can sometimes cause problems, but not normally the one you describe. In the RB folder in the Windows Programs folder, locate and open the file "rebuilder-Configuration Settings". Open it, copy, and post the contents here; that is if you continue to have problems that haven't cleared up.

Sophocles,
What point of interest were you talking about on agreement?

 

Sophocles,
We've given the same advice so often, it isn't difficult at all to repeat what someone else has said at some given time. I was referring to the post at the top of the last page that I made to Blueside. We agreed there as well and Blueside is on his way to happy encoding unless he pushes the wrong button somewhere.

I know that we've covered this stuff so often that we sound like echoes from the past, bit a lot of it is still good advice.

 

Same program, and I'm not going to search back to see when the first time was that I said to delete and do a fresh install. It's usually the quickest way to fix a lot of problems. Especially if one has to spend a few hours encoding to check each incident. It would be hard for us to disagree on the tried and true things that work. However, I'm sure we could find a way. LOL

 

That wouldn't be my first time, for that we'd have to go back to late JUne 04 and the "Which Trasncoding Tools Produce The Best Picture Quality" thread. It was there that this thread was conceived.

 

Well... going back to January of 2003... LOL
