VirtualDubMod 1.4.13.2 out

[Belgabor]

Before the upcoming 1.5 release (still some time to go) a last 1.4.x version.

[VirtualDubMod 1.4.13.2]
Cyrius:
- Some NET mode related bug fixes.
- Fixed crash when selecting a NULL LANGUAGE comment ('LANGUAGE=(null)')
- Fixed wrong interleaving in per-ms mode on a VBR MP3 stream ala Nandub.
  Thanks to Steven Greenberg (Doom9's forum) for pointing out the problem
  and providing a quick fix.
- When opening a file VDubMod should now show the first frame.
- Fixed bug when demuxing stream from an OGM file :
  * SRT file wouldn't contain the subtitles (first one at most)
  * When demuxing with WAV header and overwriting an existing file
    (longer than the stream being demuxed) some bytes from the old
    file would remain at the end of the demuxed stream
- Disabled initial resizing code as well.
  Put in the same #ifdef test than other resizing code.
- The Job window now appear when launching VDubMod to process queued jobs.
  Should prevent VDubMod from crashing in those cases (e.g. when being used
  by GKnot) because some variables are initialized when opening this window.
- Added jonny's mods (Doom9 forum, DivX 5 Enc author) - commandline options :
  * /log : generates (in the same directory) a vdenc.log file containing
    some information (type and size of frame) about the clip
  * /nowrite : prevent VirtualDubMod from writing video data in the output file
  Nb : those options must be placed before any other because VirtualDub(Mod)
  parse the commandline on sequence.
- Batch process still stop in NET mode when an error occurs for one job.
- MP3 VBR handling a la Nandub is now a preference setting (that can be saved).
  See the 'AVI' section in the 'Preferences' window. Each time a VBR stream is
  found inside an AVI the VBR warning will be shown (like in VirtualDub) and
  you will be asked if default setting must be applied or not for this stream.
- 'AC3 Frame mode' has been put in the preferences too. You will still be able
  to enable/disable this feature when opening an AC3 file (for AVI audio), but
  the checkbox is now set according to the default setting.
- Added the list of functions available for VDubMod scripts in the Help file.
- Added DeXt mods to allow .lst/.m2v opening with the current VOB support.
- Fixed a bug making VirtualDubMod eat a lot of memory instead of writing data
  in the file when saving to OGM with streams that end long before the video.
- Made a fix so that some subtitle engines (the one in latest BSPlayer for
  example) won't eat the last char of the subtitle when displaying it.
  Thanks to Alxemi (Doom9 forum) for mentionning this problem.

Belgabor:
- Reorganized the menu to make it clearer.
- Merged Streams and Cyrius' NET mod fixes.
- Release Notes more aptly named changelog.
- Disabled resizing code till Stone-D implements preferences.
  (I put it under a #define switch, see virtualdub.h)
- The time bar ticks are now switchable between
  * Off
  * Frame mode (normal)
  * Source Key Frames
  * Key Frames in divx3/xvid stats file (load via Tools/Open Stats File...)
- Stats file savable
- Toggle Keyframes in stats file (default key: Space)
- Frame info from stats file
  (Comment on stats file stuff: 
   xvid stuff is ready for work [bug reports & feature requests welcome]
   to do list [=dun request, we already thought about & will work on it]:
   * Divx5 log file support
   * Import from chapters file / ogm chapter info)
- Improved 'Scan video stream for errors'. As the classic vdub version didn't work
  for me in two files i checked, I implemented an improved version which did. Alas
  it's a bit slower so I left the classical version in.
  Both versions do NOT mask frames by default, thus three new menu items have been
  added:
  * Show bad frames
  * Mask bad frames (like what the classic scan did automatically)
  * Delete bad frames (like marking the frames and pressing 'Del')
  To prevent mistakes, the mask and delete commands flush the internal frame list, so
  none of these three commands will work afterwards until you rescan the stream.
- Changed comments display in script editor. Italics looked awful for the new font.
- Updated internal AviSynth keywords for 2.51
- Syntax highlighting for AviSynth plugins. DOES ONLY WORK WITH THE SPECIAL AVISYNTH
  VERSION FROM THE VIRTUALDUBMOD PROJECT PAGE!
- Backported some script editor bug fixes (memory leaks) from 1.5

Stream:
- Fixed several bugs
  * NET mod stop with script error on final stage of encode.
  * NET mod crash when input path-name is too long.
  * Can't load processing setting if external WAV file is set 
    as audio source.
  * NET mod stop if output type is old format AVI.
  * NET mod stop if output type is OGM.
  * NET mod freeze when input is too short.
  * NET mod freeze when input file is MPEG-2.
  * NET mod freeze when input file is OGM.
  * CBR MP3 muxing cause audio being out of sync.
  * Script error occurred when OGM comments include special character.
  * Whole batch process stopped after an error in a job.

Errata to the last changelog:
Its wrong that Cyrius didnt like '1337', he just didnt know what it means :p

Also out is our first language pack, Italian.

Get the bug fixed version (v2) and the newest dll pack!

Have fun

might just be me but i been using the older version i use this one and it just flashes doesn't open and it's not task manager as a process or anything.. oh well.. just mah $0.02's..

[seewen]

same here. It doesn't open.

If you try without DLL, you've got an error message, and with DLL ( 25.11 or CVS ), it doesn't open.


bye

( Windows XP pro, AMD XP )

It needs the new Avisynth dll in the directory to start.

[Minako]

for some reason, it just plain crashes here on WinXP SP1. Needed DLLs 25-11, Avisynth lexer and VDubMod AviSynth is there. latest bugfixexe worked fine before.

[Mel Maconoo]

puttin' in the new DLL fixed it..

win xp sp1 w/Q815411 (kinda sp2) fixes the program slow down that SP1 made..
p4 1.8 @ 2.01..

[Minako]

for me q815411 does not fix the problem.

I also tried deleting the prefs from the registry...in that case, it pops up the first dialog box I have to confirm, and crashes after confirmation.

[Belgabor]

Gah, how I hate it when such things happen, sorry guys, I'll try to find out whats going wrong tonight.

The special AviSynth dll is not necessary and definately shouldn't be the problem. Could someone whom it crashes for try to move away all needed dlls and see if it crashes then? If it doesnt please put them back one by one till it either crashes or work. SciLexer.dll and AviSynthLexer.lexer are strictly speaking NOT required to run VDubMod, only the script editor won't work without the first and syntax coloring doesnt work without the second.

Seems that one of the changes we added a few hours before releasing is in cause ^^' (access violations).
We are fixing that ...

[Manao]

OK, I have Win2K sp?, this is what I've done :

- deleted all dll from vdub directory AND from winnt/system32 ( I forgot this one the first time ), plus the .lexer
- put back the dll in this order, since vdubmod was asking for them :
* libPNG.dll
* zlib.dll
* ogg.dll
* vorbis.dll

- then, vdub didn't ask for nothing more, but didn't launch either ( no error message ). So I add so avisynth.dll, and it works. . The lexer.dll and avisynth.lexe aren't there, but for me, the avisynth.dll is required for vdubmod to work.

[bond]

For me it works without any problem (avisynth.dll is needed to start)!

Huh? This should not be the case. Probably I bungled there ^^'. But anyways, bond, what OS are you using? To me it seems like all whom it really doesnt work for use XP, am I wrong?

[bond]

I am using WinMe!

If the avisynth.dll isnt in the directory there appears a message that virtualdubmod.exe caused a failure...

[Belgabor]

Cyrius already commited a fix to CVS, it was a dumb bug ^^', don't know why I didnt see it. Currently you're right, you need the special AviSynth dll to run it, sorry.

[Kamui-Dash]

I got an error msg asking for sum "MSVCRTD.dll" any1 knows what this is?

[bond]

@kamui-dash
try the search button

[Kamui-Dash]

K, thx. Just did and what I came up is its sumwhat related to avisynth which I dont understand since I cant find msvcrtd.dll in win/sys2 or anywhere on my comp. I tried copying avisynth.dll to the folder b4 this happened. Still no clue whats goin on, Im using win2k btw.

[bond]

i am sure that there is a thread where you can find a download link for MSVCRTD.dll, or you try your luck with google!

[Kamui-Dash]

Hmm, I was afraid of this. Gotten into another problem while installing the MSVCRTD.dll file but now i know its a visual c++ file.

Error msg: The procedure entry point _chkesp could not be located in the dynamic link library MSVCRTD.dll.

Maybe I need a reboot after coping it to win/sys32, I'll reboot and post a reply later if its a sucess or not. Thx Bond.

[sh0dan]

Impressive!! You rock!

I'll include the AviSynth changes into the next version!

@all: PLEASE! Do NOT install avisynth.dll in the same directory as VdubMod! Place it in windows\system32!
