DVD2AVIdg/MPEG2DEC3dg and D2V file formats
I'm releasing a new version of my DVD2AVIdg/MPEG2DEC3dg software. I am not sure if or how it is used with your stuff, but I thought we should compare notes to make sure I don't break anything for you.
There is a new line in the D2V header: "Aspect_Ratio=" and the flags bytes now can carry a 0x10 bit to signal MPEG2DEC3dg that the previous GOP does not have to be decoded; this speeds up random access. The new version, currently decodefix110RC3.zip, can be downloaded from the link below, and discussion is in the DVD2AVI forum. http://neuron2.net/fixd2v/decodefix110RC3.zip Also, I am open to adding a new D2V file format output to DVD2AVIdg (e.g., without RFFs, etc.) if it can help you. Please advise. Last edited by Guest; 27th April 2004 at 20:11. |

jdobbs, another reason to force/enforce the appropriate version of mpeg2dec3DG you are using with a certain version of dvd-rb. As Don works to improve mpeg2dec3DG, some people may download the newer RC versions, and put it in their plugin directory, not realizing what problems they could cause for dvd-rb.

Well it looks like this has been officially released since it's in Doom9's news today. For right now I'm going to change the Installation,ect guide to direct people to download decodefix100.zip and NOT decodefix110.zip, as it is still listed on WarpEnterprises list, which I link to.
Unfortunately, Doom9's guide was automatically updated to point to this new release, which may cause headaches until DVD-RB can use it, or the guide is fixed. So if you see a lot of newbies reporting error 9, make sure they are using the right version of MPEG2DECdg.dll. |

Well, you could require the path to be defined in the next version. Then you would have direct access to the file and could test it to see if it was the correct version. If not you could generate an error. You could do it when they select the file, and also before processing just do a quick verify.

Has anyone gotten reports that there are problems with DVD-RB (besides the one above)? I have the new MPEG2DEC3DG.DLL running on my other computer and it seems to work fine. I'll do a little more testing.
@neuron2 Is there any reason why this version wouldn't read files without the 0x10 and aspect ratio included? EDIT: Seems to be a little faster! Last edited by jdobbs; 2nd May 2004 at 04:56. |

But I have made the problem worse for you with my version 1.2.0, currently in beta. Why don't you bundle the DLL? You only have to make source for the DLL available upon request to satisfy GPL. DVD-RB can remain closed. Sorry! Last edited by Guest; 2nd May 2004 at 07:34. |
