Convert to YV12 in VDUB for DVD? at DVinfo.net

Thomas Moore · November 16th, 2009, 06:48 PM

My Current Workflow:

1) Render out 1280X720 Cineform "highest" Intermediary file from Vegas 9C as Cineform .avi (use .709, up convert to 4:4:4, Higher HD, Progressive, square Pixels 1.0)

2) Import into Vdub using Avisynth 2.5 script (Dan Isaacs - hd2sd("filename.avi", Interlaced = false) and use Lanczo3 to re-size to 720X480

3) Export using Lagarith lossless Codec

4) Import into HCEncode using Avisynth 2.5 and script provided by "Fit2disc"

I've been pretty happy with the results so far, but one thing that I seem to have to do in HCEncode is add "ConvertToYV12() "

Today messing around in Vdub I noticed that in the Lagarith settings I can tell it to output in YV12.

My question is, should I do this in Vdub or just do it in HC encode or am I totally daft here?

Thanks in advance for help!
