Yamb 2.1.0.0 beta 2 is out... - Page 9

SeeMoreDigital · 27th December 2006, 14:03

Just had a look at some early Recode2 MPEG-4 AVC sample encodes: -

Code:

* Movie Info *
	Timescale 1000 - Duration 00:00:50.800
	Fragmented File no - 4 track(s)
	File Brand avc1 - version 0
	Created: GMT Mon Jul 18 10:52:09 2005

File has root IOD
Scene PL 0x01 - Graphics PL 0xfe - OD PL 0xfe
Visual PL: No visual capability required (0xff)
Audio PL: Scalable Audio Profile @ Level 1 (0x05)

EDIT: And an early QT7 MPEG-4 AVC sample encode: -

Code:

* Movie Info *
	Timescale 600 - Duration 00:00:50.760
	Fragmented File no - 2 track(s)
	File Brand qt   - version 537199360
	Created: GMT Tue Nov 08 09:42:19 2005

File has no MPEG4 IOD/OD

Cheers

Kurtnoise13, Yamb/mp4box can't mux audio alone in a .m4a (apple's container for mp4 audio), can it? Perhaps just mp4box itself...is that a function contained within it?

bond · 30th December 2006, 16:08

.m4a = .mp4

Except when it comes to the iPod

If you have the general .mp4 container on the iPod, it assumes it's video content because it doesn't scan and categorize the streams within. This pisses me off because I want to convert my songs using the Nero AAC encoder but as you know it outputs to an MP4. It just makes managing your library a hassle this way. Admittedly, I haven't done much looking into .m4a muxers but thought I read (or heard) something about m4box doing this a while back.

As bond already said M4A = MP4. Just rename your files, that's all.

Just in-case you did not know, YAMB 1.6 can "see" and de-mux AAC streams within the .M4A container okay - No need to re-name anything

Wow, I guess I wanted to make it more complicated than it already was. I thought the container formats were different somehow, and now I feel really stupid for not having thought of that.

Thanks you guys!

If you are strict it is not same. Both is based at ISO base media file format (ISO/IEC 14496-12).
For m4a Apple added there iTunes Tags and a MP4 like Audio Sample Entry ... . And the major ftyp is set to "M4A " and a compatible brand is set to "mp42".
For mp4(ISO/IEC 14496-14) there was added the Scenedescription(BIFS Track), the Object Description Framework and the Sync Layer. The major ftyp is set to "mp42".

I would not simply rename it. Its more or less the same if you would rename a mov to mp4 depended from the used codecs. IMHO

I would use m4a for audio only files. A scenedescription isn't needed for a simply audioplayer. You don't want to know where the audio audio is placed in a 3D coordinate system.

If you want to create a MP4 file conformace to (ISO/IEC 14496-14) use a tool like MP4MenuGUI. ( I didn't tested it until now. I am a bit lazy/other things to do and my Windows PC is slower than the one from Bond

).

Kurtnoise · 30th December 2006, 17:18

Yep...there is a switch dedicated to the iPod in MP4Box ( -ipod). But I don't think I'll add it to the next release due the issues noticed previously.

Kurtnoise · 7th January 2007, 15:45

Hi,

The update for the next release is almost finished. I'm working on "Vista Ready" features right now. So, if you have already installed this OS and you want to test Yamb on it, send me a PM or mail me : kurtnoise at free dot fr ; I'll send you a build for testing.

I use large fonts windows GUI setting because of eyesight issues
and I cannot see the right sight of your dialogs in 2.0 preview

Kurtnoise · 9th January 2007, 19:05

yes...it should be fixed in the next release. So, wait a couple of days.

oLex · 19th January 2007, 17:44

Kurtnoise13, add a "next"-button into process-layer for begining a new work, please.
Thanx.

Kurtnoise · 19th January 2007, 19:23

In Settings, check "Enable OnFinish event". With this, when you click on Finish button, you will have a pop-up message. Choose "no" to create a new work.

oh, thank you! it's my inattention

chipzoller · 30th January 2007, 06:12

So, Kurtnoise, any news with the 2.0 release? I'm waiting with bated breath as I'm sure many others are.

Keep up your great work.

Kurtnoise · 30th January 2007, 21:04

When it will be done.

All tests on Vista are not finished yet. Plus, I'm changing the tagging part (should be more intuitive and easier to use). Video Preview feature for splitting works now but needs to be tuned. Unfortunately, I can only work to this project the weekend. My free time is still limited though...

KRUSADER · 19th February 2007, 22:07

Is there any posibility that we will see batch muxing feature, in one of the next versions on YAMB, for example I would mux my aac music files in MP4, container.
Thanks.

P.S.
My english sucks!
