The following situation :

* Divx5.0 Pro is installed.
* m2apx3g.exe is used to convert mpeg to avi
* divxauto is used to choose the 'pass mode' and to fill in the CLI options.

But divxauto start 'hits' the OK button in the compression dialog from DivX5.0, I get a popup box with the title 'Divx Codec' and with the text 'He he' . !

When i do click on the OK button in that dialog, the yellow picture (that one with the divx5.0 logo + some text) changes to another yellow picture with a smaller logo and smaller text BUT : with a guy with a sigar ??????? :confused: :confused:

The DivX5.0 normal install [that one with the blue picture] , does not change the picture but divxauto does also not work !!!

What the hell is this ? :confused: :confused:

Has anyone seen this before ?

I could be wrong here, but since DivX5 tells you the commandline on the codec properties page, you should be able to just make a batchfile chaining both passes. No need for DivXauto at all that way.

Hi, excuse me about that, but it is very interesting..........how you pass the commands to divx5 codec???..........i think this could be very useful for me, because i use mpeg2avi to encode at nigh two or three movies....

Thanks for any ideas about

Yes, i saw it, when i tried :BT00 (donīt remember well)......ok, :BT16 would be "OK" button, and :BT17 would be "CANCEL"..........but both do the same thing...CANCEL........grrrr

If anybody had any idea, please let me know...........or if he knows how to pass the command line of parameteres from a .bat file to the codec........

Thanks.....ALX

The DivX-5 Codec has all the settings in the registry. I use the command reg.exe to change the settings.

e.g. reg add HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\DivXNetworks\DivX4Windows /v "VBR Mode" /t REG_DWORD /d 2 /f

Here is my complete batch file:

I only use the divxauto to choose the codec.

Hi, i downloaded your rip.bat file, but when i tried to execute it, windows answered me that "reg" was not a program file, or a known command.........is this an external program?? where can i get it?
I use windows 2000 and 98SE......both cases, same results.

Thanks.

Hi,

I am using Windows XP and reg.exe is located in the "system32" directory.

Here is the link for reg.exe:

Iīve also corrected the rip.bat. Now it works with 2-pass.
