I do a lot of sport analysis and need to take a 30 f/s video and convert the fields to 60 frames a sec.
I've tried using after effects 5.0 to deinterlace and then make movie into 60 frames. It makes 60 frames but I only see movement every other frame.
You understand what I want to do but I am getting nowhere with this.
I',m a novice so I realy need to be shown step by step how to do this.
Thanks
Cliff

There is a really simple way to do what you want, but you need Ben Rudiak-Gould's Avisynth. Ben hasn't updated Avisynth in years, though, so I recommend the newer Avisynth Beta 6.
Once you've got Avisynth installed, create a script (really, a text file) like the following:
AVISource("MyVideo.avi") Bob
Save it with an extension of ".avs" and you can open the avs file in VirtualDub. When you do this, you'll see that each field has been expanded into its own frame, and the frame rate has doubled.

FccHandler,
Thanks
I installed Avisynth Beta 6.0. I am running Win 2000 so I guess those .DLL's go in Winnt/system32 folder.
I tried the example.avs file and it ran as a video so I guess it's loade fine however when I try to run the IPCserver.avs file it says: "LoadPlugin: unable to load "IPCSource.dll"
As far as creating a script/text file, I don't understand exactly how to do this.
I assume your saying to create a document file by right clicking/new/text document.
Now once I have a balnk doc then what?

Don't think it is working.
I made a text document with contents:
AVISource("C:\Video.avi") Bob
Windows still see's it as a text file????? |

sounds like you have windows hiding the file extensions. rename the file to *.avs, znd put quotes arounds it: "hithere.avs" that way it'll force windows to give it an AVS extension.

Nope,
It does not work by forcing it as an *.avs file.
I Don't understand, because when I try the example.avs file in the AvisynthEX folder it says it'an AVS file and it runs the video as a windows media clip
I just can't save anything as an .avs!
Man I'm really starting to get P****

Your script file must have an ".AVS" extension for Avisynth to work.
I have no experience with WinNT, but on Windows 98 you would open a folder, select "View" from the menu, then "Folder Options", then the "View" tab, and uncheck the box that says "Hide file extensions for known file types," then click the "Apply" button. After doing that, you'll be able to see the extension of every file, and you could see if your script file really has an ".AVS" extension.
Alternatively, couldn't you right-click on the file name and rename it?

OK, I got it.
It does work now but I DO have to force windows to run it as an AVS file but saving it with "".
Now the script AVISource("myfile.avi")Bob will run the video upside down but if I say:
DirectShowSource("c:\Video.avi")Bob it's OK.
Now if I load this file in VirtualDub it will be split into frame at 60 frame/sec.?
Now what do I do to be able to view it with 60 unique frames?
Thank guys |

The 60fps version that VirtualDub shows you is only a synthesized version; you must save the whole thing to a new AVI if you want to keep it. You should set both Video and Audio to "Full processing mode" and choose your Video->Compression and Audio->Compression. (For video I recommend DivX 5.0.2 if you don't already have it.) You can also choose from the many Video->Filters if the video needs some fixing.
Happy dubbing

FccHandler,
Still having a problem getting unique frames after seperating the fields and then using smart bob.
When I play it back frame by frames I only see real wovement every other frame????
Even after I save it!
I thought I had it right ....
WTF am I doing wrong?

That would be the case if the video is not really field-based, but comprised of 30 fps progressive frames. If you bob it, it will have a similar effect to just duplicating every frame. Look closely at the original and if you don't see any interlacing (aka "combing") then it's probably progressive.

Well it's working now.
I think that the clip I was trying was shot at too slow a frame rate, the camera was in the SLOW shudder mode because the lighting was very low.
I tried some video that I captured off the air and by using "Bob". The playback is very flickery.
Would that be because the signal was poor?
doing fields to frames with the camera is fine.
Morsa,
I download MotionPerfect. Nice program!!!!
Will have to get the full version.
Thanks
Cliff

Morsa,
That is one fantastic program!
How does it does it seperate the video into so many frames.
It appears that I can make upto a 240 F/S video clip!
Simply amazing!
