dimzon's BeSweet encoding plugins (update 2005-09-16)

[dimzon]

Latest build are bundled with fresh BeLight beta:



Consist of

• bse_WinampAACPlusV2 - AAC+ v2 encoder, MPEG2 AAC output (no MP4 container), no 5.1 support
• bse_WinampAACPlusV2_6ch - AAC+ v2 encoder, MPEG2 AAC output (no MP4 container), 5.1 encoding only
• bse_FAAC - FAAC-based AAC-LC encoding plugin, support MP4 output, now support 5.1 encoding
• bse_Speex - Speex encoding plugin
• bse_enhAacPlusEnc3GP - AAC+ v2 encoder based on 3GPP reference encoder from CT, MP4 output.

Future plans (frozen - I'm very busy IRL ATM):

• HE-AAC 5.1 support - PRIMARY TASK
• bse_WavPack - simple WavPack encoder

Please turn that maybe into a definitely

[Doom9]

so my suspicion was right after all.. the reference encoder doesn't do 5.1.

Can You sticky this thread?

[dimzon]

Seems line enc_aacplus.dll from WinAmp 5.1 can create 5.1 HE-AAC !

get BeSweet encoding plugin here!
NOTE: Only for 5.1 encoding

Does not work for me with the following command line:

BeSweet.exe -core( -input input.ac3 -output output.aac -logfile output.log ) -azid( -c normal ) -dimzon( -dllname bse_WinampAacPlusV2_6ch.dll -cbr 128 -v 1) -ota( -d -192 -g max )

BeSweet error message:

Thanks, finally working...

Nice work!!!

bse_WinampAACPlusV2 - AAC+ v2 encoder, MPEG2 AAC output (no MP4 container), no 5.1 support

And now there's a 6ch one.. wouldn't it make sense to have just one plugin for everything? and do both winamp encoders only support cbr?

I will merge them a little later and they both AFAIK support cbr only

[Dark-Cracker]

really nice work !
it really great to see that besweet could still expand,
a boring question but are you planning to try some input plugin (like .dts) once your work on the AAC will be stable enought ?

keep up the good work.

Let's hope that Kurt can finalize his DTS implementation in BeLight using Tranzcode.

I'd prefer to keep the stickies basic. Once your plugins have matured a bit and any issues have been worked out, we'll add links to the respective stickies.

I am having problem with FAAC plugin. FAAC.exe and bse_FAAC.dll were added to BeSweet folder. Input AC3 file is 6 channel ATSC A/52 according to foobar. The same azid and faac parameters work with this AC3 input file when used with each program individually, but do not work in BeSweet. I am new to BeSweet, so command line may not be correct.

This is my command line:


"BeSweet/BeSweet.exe" -core( -input "input.ac3" -output "output.m4a" -logfile logfile.log ) -azid( -z1 -b1 -s surround ) -dimzon( -dllname bse_FAAC.dll -b 64 )

This is the Besweet logfile:

The output.m4a file produced is nothing but noise. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help.

EDIT:
I also tried this with no parameters for azid and faac (using defaults) with same results.

[iradic]

is this enc_aacplus.dll in your package the same as winamp's?
it's confusing since you UPX-ed it (how can i find out they are the same) ... plus you say in readme to copy the dll from winamp\plugins !?

[movax]

dimzon: How can you simply substitute in another DLL in the bse_ framework? Wouldn't the entrypoints/calls be vastly different? (PM me or email me if it's a long or lengthy explanation if you wish. )

[iradic]

cmd line
"C:\PROGRAM FILES\GORDIANKNOT\BESWEET\BeSweet.exe" -core( -input "C:\temp\DVD\audio.ac3" -output "C:\temp\DVD\audio.aac" -logfilea "C:\temp\DVD\BeSweet.log" ) -azid( -c normal --maximize ) -dimzon( -dllname bse_WinampAacPlusV2.dll ) -ssrc( --rate 44100 )

i get besweet error ...
debug assertion failed
program c:\program files\gordianknot\besweet\besweet.exe
file fprintf.c
line 56
expression str != null

also some versioning or date stamping of your archives (or in readme file) would be nice ...

You are damn fast at progamming. gratz
Got love ya.

iradic:

enc_aacplus.dll in package is not the same as the one in WinAmp (size is different).


The following command line works for me:

"BeSweet/BeSweet.exe" -core( -input "input.ac3" -output "mp2.aac" ) -azid( ) -dimzon( -dllname bse_WinampAacPlusV2.dll )
