Few bugs..

AutoMKV doesn't recognize spaces in the input path. For e.g: if I extract AutoMKV to C:\Program Files\AutoMKV, and then start the encoding, during the audio encoding step, it flashes a commandline window saying C:\Program is not a recognized internal or external command. At least, that's what I could make out from it because the command window was flashing wildly (it was rapidly getting closed and re-created again. Very annoying - only way was to end the process from the Task Manager).

Actually, audio doesn't seem to work at all. I tried all Nero AAC options, none worked. It was always in the line of

Code:
07:09:06 Starting fixing audio delay on track number 1
07:09:06 No audio found at track number 1 switch to track 2
07:09:06 Finished fixing audio delay
07:09:07 Finished D:\Pollock\VIDEO_TS\ to AAC with  setting
07:09:07 No audio create, retry without apply Stereo
07:09:07 Finished D:\Pollock\VIDEO_TS\ to AAC with  setting
07:09:08 No audio create, retry without apply Original
07:09:08 Finished D:\Pollock\VIDEO_TS\ to AAC with  setting
07:09:09 No audio create, retry without apply Original
or
Code:
07:11:35 Starting fixing audio delay on track number 1
07:11:35 No audio found at track number 1 switch to track 2
07:11:35 Finished fixing audio delay
07:11:35 Finished D:\Pollock\VIDEO_TS\ to AAC with  setting
07:11:36 No audio create, retry without apply DLP II
07:11:36 Finished D:\Pollock\VIDEO_TS\ to AAC with  setting
07:11:37 No audio create, retry without apply Original
07:11:37 Finished D:\Pollock\VIDEO_TS\ to AAC with  setting
07:11:37 No audio create, retry without apply Original
07:11:37 Finished D:\Pollock\VIDEO_TS\ to AAC with  setting
07:11:38 No audio create, retry without apply Original
Note how the log is incorrect too. First it says retry without apply DLP II and then in the next try, the error message switches to retry without apply Original.

Even Copy Original doesn't work. I get:

Code:
07:26:05 Starting fixing audio delay on track number 1
07:26:05 No audio found at track number 1 switch to track 2
07:26:05 Finished fixing audio delay
07:26:05 Renamed file  to audio.
07:26:06 No audio create, retry without apply Stereo
07:26:06 Renamed file  to audio.
07:26:07 No audio create, retry without apply Original
07:26:07 Renamed file  to audio.
07:26:08 No audio create, retry without apply Original
07:26:08 Renamed file  to audio.
07:26:08 No audio create, retry without apply Original
07:26:08 Renamed file  to audio.
07:26:09 No audio create, retry without apply Original
07:26:09 Renamed file  to audio.
I noted that you are not indexing the video and demuxing the audio tracks using DGIndex before this. That might be the reason why it is not able to find the audio streams.

In all of the above cases, the flashing window problem occurs and the only way out of it is to end task it.

OK, so then I selected no audio and DGIndex craps out with a No Video Sequence Header Found error (the kind you used to get if you opened an avs in DGIndex before) followed by a No data. Check your PIDs error. Looks like the PIDs are not being set, for whatever reason.

Whew, that's it for now. Got to leave for work. Will test later tonight if I am sober enough.

P.S: Are you allowed to distribute neroAacEnc? Note that the MeGUI folks aren't distributing it at the moment because of licensing issues.

dgindex is always used ! in mkvmagic.log (at start) what command line is used for dgindex (like) "13:53:15 Dgindex CMD: C:\Programmi\PureBasic4\AutoMKV\exe\dgindex\dgindex.exe -FO=0 -OM=1 -TN=1 -YR=2 -If=[C:\Programmi\PureBasic4\AutoMKV\aaa.vob] -OF=[C:\Programmi\PureBasic4\AutoMKV\movie] -exit -MINIMIZE"

what si your input file ? a dvd structure ? if so the main problem is with ifo parsing... try pointing at main ifo file. or at vob... and at end (before removing all) at an already created d2v

All my testing was on a DVD input. DGIndex is used, but are you using it *before* encoding audio? If I select Nero AAC-Stereo as the audio format, AutoMKV immediately fires up the commandline for encoding the audio with neroAacEnc.exe. But I don't recollect a step happening where the AC3 is being demuxed out of the VOBs. I am pretty sure this was the case, but I will check the logs again tonight.

The input was indeed the main IFO file and I reckon vstrip_ifo.exe parsed it without any issues too.

Nope. DVD input. Which makes the error all the more weird.

Also here are some suggestions:
  • The GPL license included, COPYING, doesn't have an extension. Make it COPYING.txt.
  • All the input options should be labelled, Audio Track #1, Audio Track #2, Subtitles, Resizer, Denoiser etc.
  • There should be an option None under the Denoisers, if I want no denoising. Also, there are non-denoisers listed in there, e.g: ColorMatrix. How come?
  • Do you plan to provide sharpening options too? I feel you should.

EDIT: And oh, inside the exe folder, you have a chapters.txt and an xvid.stats left over from some testing you have been doing.

Audio part is working now. Now that I am home and checking the logs, I can confirm that there is no sign of DGIndex in them as you claimed. So what was the problem with that part of the code? Was I correct in my observation that you weren't demuxing the tracks before and hence the reason the audio encoding was failing?

Another problem now is that DGIndex's Information window is suppressed when running (Is it because of -MINIMIZE?). So I am not able to see any progress. To add to the problem, AutoMKV GUI itself totally disappears from view once DGIndex is fired off. A progress bar is a must here, IMO. Either enable the Information window of DGIndex or have AutoMKV itself display the log real-time (like in AutoGK), and if possible, both.

So it is encoding at the moment (at least I think so, since x264.exe got invoked now, but nothing in sight). I am out for the night. Will check back tomorrow for more.

EDIT: I can see the x264.exe window now and yes, it is running.

no. I use dgindex as demuxer, and if audio is working then dgindex is launched minimized, and at the and audio is encoded.

just right click on dgindex minimized and click "restore"

space in source file and in installation path is fixed.

many thanks unskinnyboy

about ogm/mkv/.divx (and .divx output) input will be not supported directly (now). Since AutoMKV support avisynth input feed the program with a directshowsource file

this is another matter... the destination folder "should" be without space in name...

anyway this build is without the "space" check (and will fuction even with space ... but not over 128 character lenght folder...)

http://www.64k.it/andres/data/a/AutoMKV06.exe

please re-download. I also have optimized some routines (from 202kb to 197kb...)

Thanks for your test !

I don't think you got me. *Now* audio part is working fine (as of v0.05 I tested). Because you are launching DGIndex *before* the audio step, how it should be. This was NOT what you were doing in v0.03, where there wasn't any DGIndex step *before* the audio encoding step. You used to attempt to encode the audio, but without an input track in hand (because it was never demuxed out of the VOB container!). But anyway, good that it is fixed now.

I had tried all that. Restoring doesn't restore the information window. It only restores the main window. Does it work for you?

A newbie user wouldn't want to go looking in the source directory and read the logs to know the progress. Btw, why mkvmagic.log? You should rename it to automkv.log to reflect the name of the tool.

OK, now that the encode is done (with v0.05) , I see that it is undersized (I asked for 700 MB, it gave me 692.2 MB) and it wasn't IVTC'd. It should have been (QMF not working properly?). I am also 99.99% sure, I had selected the width to be 720, but the resultant file has a width of 704 (will confirm this later).

More suggestions..

You are creating a ton of stuff in the source directory and it is confusing. You should be moving all the intermediate files into a temp directory. The source directory should only contain the input files & the output files (movie+subs). You could even create an output directory and put the movie+subs there.

yes (as autogk faq..), anyway now dgindex is lauched not minimized

... i will try to implement a direct log into main window... but i am a newby developer... be patient
about renaming... of course, i have reused some routines from my mkvmagic ... log will be now automkv.log

is previus version (prior to 0.6) dbautodeint wasn't correctly launched on path with space in name... please retry with 0.08 build (on a short vob). About undersize... i will try to do better compute... (try with 0.08)

check mkvmagic.log should be written. Anyway the new log (0.08) will be filled with more information

Quote:

added a "Del Temp File" check. But remember since this software is in beta status, i analyze many temporary file for debugging

thanks again and here the 0.08 build http://www.64k.it/andres/data/a/AutoMKV08.exe

...destination folder works now fine,but after pressing Start the program begins to work, but I cant see AutoMKV on Display,only by Taskmanager.


I posted in the German doom9 (Forum Gleitz) news your program, so that more people help to test AutoMKV.

Hello !

Just downloaded it and started with an DVB-S Stream (Demultiplexed with ProjectX and cutted with Cuttermaran)
OC bla bla.mpg

After Start 10.000 plus CMD Windows opened and closed.
I could hradly kill the Thread AutoMKV with Windows Task Manager.
Any Idea who this can happen ?


Edit :Arggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Forget my question .
I just downloaded the Update EXE instead installing the whole packet from Post 1

Of course I could edit the post, hence it may help somebdy else.


First Encode is running.

Thnaks HenriKx for mentioning the program.
