Koepi · 25th January 2004, 16:56

Heya folks,

it's a whole month of hidden work, but here we are:

We proudly announce the release of XviD 1.0 Release Candidate 1, Codename "Niltze"! Before anyone asks - it's no nazi german, it's Aztec.

Changelog:

XviD-1.0-RC1-25012004 (Niltze):
- Cleaned up VfW-GUI
- Colour space assignment fixes (dshow)
- Weight zones fixed
- Overhauled VfW status window in general
- Bugfixes in the plugin system
- Statsfile existence gets checked now on 2nd pass
- Postprocessing fix
- Faster first pass QPel gets disabled as well now
- Installer deletes old XviD configuration (no need for "Load defaults" after install)

Regards,
Koepi

Cool beans..... testing now.

*Edit*

I love the new status window. Great job Xvid team. So far so good.

DAvenger · 25th January 2004, 17:10

Good work. Thanks

Swede · 25th January 2004, 17:16

I like the new status look.

Thanks for keeping XVID alive!

One quick question: What kind of frame is S? (amongst the 'internals' in the status-window)

Koepi · 25th January 2004, 17:25

S is a S-Vop - a frame where GMC gets used

Regards
Koepi

aaar9800 · 25th January 2004, 17:28

Big thanks go to the whole development team!!!

One question though: Why is AS @ L5 chosen by default?

Human_USB · 25th January 2004, 17:29

Oh, one thing. Can you tell us what each color is on the status window.

And for Xvid 1.0 it would be nice if we could save the status window information into a text file.

-Thanks
Jason

aaar9800 · 25th January 2004, 17:31

I think that

red = i-frame
blue = p-frame
green = b-frame

Swede · 25th January 2004, 17:31

S-VOP. Aha.. /me learns new stuff everyday.

(The colors are Red=I, Blue=P and Green=B)

mikeX · 25th January 2004, 17:57

dammit, just when i got my first gamr build and thought i'd be a few steps ahead of the masses...

, oh well

(my comments about the revised gui and status window are already posted -yes they are good

-)

mf · 25th January 2004, 17:59

Nice work on the status. It still lacks the curve-graphic (ala nandub) that me and suxen discussed, but it's certainly improving

.

seewen · 25th January 2004, 18:05

Profile "AS@L5" is used by default. Does it mean that Rate Control's working correctly ?
(I know that it's written that "XviD RC will not respect these value" ).

Does XviD's GMC support 4 warppoints?

Alxemi · 25th January 2004, 18:53

Big thanks to all XviD development team!!
Here it is a mirror for those who having problems with wget, downloads managers or whatever.

Heini011 · 25th January 2004, 19:16

Hi,

@Koepi & other devs: thanks a lot for your great work!

but again: please, make the fast first pass only be active, when the 'discard first pass' option is selected. i had already 2 times forgotten to deactivate the quant 2 zone in the second pass.
i use the first pass result to check the avisynth filter settings and for a size estimation.

i have a beta3 first pass ready (20h processing time, no weight zones). can i keep the stat file for RC1 ?

greetings, Heini011.

Koepi · 25th January 2004, 19:20

Heini:

yupp, you could use that statsfile. Just remember to setup everything like it was again, now after installing my build XviD sets everything to the defaults

Regards
Koepi

Human_USB · 25th January 2004, 19:28

With the new Xvid I'm having problems keeping the size down. Even at 2000kbps it's make a 40 minute video about 500-650 MBs. It's still encoding but I'm at 135MBs at 13600 frams of 65504. Maybe it's because the Weight system is fixed. Would 1000kbps look dvd like and remain small in the new RC? Each new xvid is so great but different.

Rats! And I thought you spelled "Schnitzel" totally wrong...

np: Autechre - 777 (LP5)

cretin · 25th January 2004, 20:52

Hey. I installed the the new build and the first thing that i spot is that the Min I P and B Frame Quantizer defaults are 1 instead of 2.

It was known that quant 1 has some problems, like they are not working well(?), or even if they are working they dont have any effect on quality they just increase size. I would like to know if this is fixed or improved by now or is there any change there at all ? Is there a point in using minimal quant 1, ll that result in higher quality or anything ?

Thank for your answers.
