add logo

[wv111]

hi!
i know that u can manipulate the size,border,... of the video (in dvd2svcd) but is there also the possible to add a logo in the video , like the "MTV" logo or any other bmp file?
its no typical logo its a b-day present and i agree to add not typical logos to a movie,, but in this way it should be a exception.
(sorry for my bad english but i am from ....)

sorry i wasnt trying to dismiss your question
there are just sooo many questions of logo removal that i was stunned at your post

i dont know how to incorporate such a logo
but if its for a birthday present why not just make your own stunning title picture which would be really nice
that would'nt wear off in novelty factor as time passes like a logo would ?

Hi wv111

this is a good question, and it was surely posted in the right place.

To add a logo is very easy and can be done in just few seconds. Do the following:

1) make the logo as a 24 bits bmp file, with n(x)m resolution. (my advice is to use m and n smaller than 100). Save this logo as, for example, mylogo.bmp;

2) open notepad and write a text with the following informations:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
1st_frame,last_frame,0,x_PLLTC,y_PLLTC,logoname.bmp
---------------------------------------------------------------------

where PLLTC means "position of the logo's left top corner". For example, if the movie has 100000 frames and you need to put a logo at the right botton corner of the screen, from the start to the middle of its length, you will write:

--------------------------------------
10,50000,0,400,400,mylogo.bmp
--------------------------------------

save this file as, for example, addlogo.txt;

3) now, start the DVD2SVCD encoding, checkmarking "edit when dvd2avi processing is done" at frameserve tab;

4)when the avisynth script edition pop up, add the following line:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
LoadPlugin("DRIVE:\path_to_dvd2svcd_folder\DVD2SVCD\AVISYN~1.DLL")
AvisynthSubtitler("DRIVE:\path_to_addlogo_file\","addlogo.txt")
------------------------------------------------------------------

this can be done even if you are using permanent subtitles, as for example:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
LoadPlugin("C:\ARQUIV~1\DVD2SVCD\MPEG2Dec\mpeg2dec.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\ARQUIV~1\DVD2SVCD\AVISYN~1.DLL")
mpeg2source("C:\DOCUME~1\MEUSDO~1\doct\DVD2AV~1.D2V")
BilinearResize(448,448)
AddBorders(16,16,16,16)
AvisynthSubtitler("C:\DOCUME~1\MEUSDO~1\doctort\","PermSubs.txt")
AvisynthSubtitler("C:\DOCUME~1\MEUSDO~1\doctort\","addlogo.txt")
--------------------------------------------------------------------

5) save the avs file and open it with mediaplayer to verify if it is fine;

6) enjoy.;)

[chainsaw135]

hi its me again :)
is it also possible to add a animated logo ?

[markrb]

I don't think so since a computer is the only thing that can read an animated image.

Now you maybe able to use TSCV to create a Menu that is animated.
There is a guide on Doom9 and TSCV has it's homepage and forum as well. It's not quite the same and requires more work, but it's close.

You could create an avi and Logo it in Vdub....Then use avi2svcd....
just a suggestion

[RadicalEd]

wv111, you're talking about adding an animated logo to the video if I'm not mistaken.

There may be a way to do this through avisynth, I'm not sure though (heh..should do my homework before posting.. owell) but one way to do it is Donald Graft's Logo plugin for Vdub (http://sauron.mordor.net/dgraft/logo.html), it allows you to add multiple bitmaps to create an animated logo. It'll take a lot longer to serve through Vdub but if you want an animated logo that's the easiest way to go.

-edit-
of course thats what badbert just said... nevermind :rolleyes:

[wv111]

ok thx guys.
i have to test that filter . hope the quality is not bad.)
thx
