BHH
whew....I was changing the CRF on the advanced settings page(tab) to 20; I was not changing the profile itself. Is this the wrong way to do it? So I was loading the ConstantQuality-CRF profile then changing the CRF on the Advanced page to 20 and then pressing the encode button. Is the right way to do it to go into the ConstantQuality-CRF.xml file and change the bitratequantizer to 20?

Is the Coding Tech AAC coder OK to use, never heard of it before? Or should I really be using the Nero?

there are two way of changing the profiles !

first, open the file into \profiles\x264-profiles\zxcvb.xml and edit it with notepad
second (and recommed) on advanced profiles editing modify the profile AND (after editing) check USE this Profile

in this way automkv will use this EDITED profile

about coding tech is better to use Nero (support 5.1ch!)

mini how-to
load the input file
select audio/container/codec/resize/width....
change the profile to crf
answer Go Unlimited
on advanced profile editing change bitratequantitizer from 18 to 20
check use this profile
click start

Thanks, I had been using AutoMKV to do Zune (which I never modified the profiles) and XviD where I edited the profiles.xml the way I wanted them. So I never ran into this before.

remember that in full package there are even the profiles, so all change you have made will be lost on upgrade!

also, even if you don't copy the \profiles folder remember that some update needs the new profiles (like new muxing mode for xvid)

WMV AVS encoding -- not fixed in 78b

FIXED: Some problem on wmv encoding (???)
@dlflannery
please try this update
BHH
The failures described in my earlier post continue although the movie.avs file has changed from before.

Again I tried all combinations of the 2 direct show check boxes (could you tell me what settings I should be using for these? -- that would cut my testing time by 4X !)

Depending on these checkbox settings I get two movie.avs versions.

One has:
Code:
movie = directshowsource("C:\videos\MyVideo.avs",audio=false)
movie = isRGB(movie) ? ConvertToYV12(movie,interlaced=true) : movie
movie = isYUY2(movie) ? ConvertToYV12(movie,interlaced=true) : movie
audio = DirectShowSource("C:\videos\MyVideo.avs",fps=30.000299,convertfps = true,video=false)
Note that the audio AVS ("MyAudio.avs") is never used.

The other version of movie.avs has just one line:
Code:
Import("C:\videos\MyVideo.avs")
Again the audio AVS file is not used.

After I select MyVideo.avs as the input file, a file browser comes up asking for an audio file. That is where I select MyAudio.avs. Is this correct? I don't see any other way to input the audio AVS file. This audio AVS then shows in the Audio Track 1 source window.

Thanks

just a little information...
i added the possibility to load avs as audio file... i never said that was supported in wmv.... (as you know wmv has a very different type of avs script since it must include even audio)

you could input this as video AND no select audio input AND don't check any directshow usage

Code:
LoadPlugin("DGDecode.dll")
global movie = directshowsource("1173967360__aaa.mkv",audio=false)
global audio = directshowsource("1173967360__aaa.mkv",video=false)
audiodub(movie,audio)

Thanks for the clarification,buzzqw.

In your example, why is the DGDecode plugin needed?
(Sorry if that is a newbie question.)

I reported a similar (not identical) case in an earlier post (see #3). I had to check both directshow boxes for it to encode properly. I did not load the DGDecode plugin and I didn't define clips movie and audio as global. Are the plugin and/or the global variables needed so the direct show boxes don't need to be checked?

Is it possible to state simple logic that determines whether the directShow boxes should be checked?

Thanks for your patience.

Oh, I tried a CRF encode for the first time and did the same thing (changed the value on Advanced Settings).

it isn't a newbie question, but an clever observation!
no, there is NO NEED to load dgdecode... i have simply edited a previus script... and havn't trim the load plugin. My mistake


Quote:

when i use avitynth IMPORT fuction, avisynth "simply" import the "result" of audio and video, DON'T import what is the origins of audio and video.
When i use GLOBAL i force avisynth to remember what is audio and what is video


Quote:

more simply that you can suppose: whenever you want to process the input file (and so NOT AVS) by directshowsource

maybe due to not correct dgdecode handling, or you want to use a preprocessing filter using ffdshow, corrupted audio or video....

no problem what so ever!

i suppose... i added in todo list.. but isn't a top priority

What are the rules for cropping & downsizing ?

I'm encoding the extras of Band of Brothers which always have tons of black space.
I used Dr DivX to preview and test the autocrop facility... which gave a preference for 6-Left & 4-Right... and the encode worked fine.

I thought 9-Left and 7-Right looked better (also a multiple of 16) and my encode crashed after doing the 'de-interlace check'... what gives ?

I downsized the main episodes to 720x400 but this extra I'm taking downto 640x368 (1024x576 Orig)... IF I choose the 640 width option (drop down menu)... does it automatically crop and then downsize ?





@weaver4
Nice to see your quantizer encoding is coming together... you've always been into very much better quality encoding allbeit at low-res where most guys want to compress 10 movies onto 1 DVD at really poor quality levels.

yes and yes, first it will be autocropped then resized to 640*xxx where xxx is the correct height given original ar

so was BAutoDeint.exe that crashed ? or automkv ?
could you post the log ?

Automkv .78 suggestions after a bit of use:

1) Windows Media Encoder has failed to find the length on 3 out of 3 movies so far, even via the alternate method it tries.

2) I can't type a path in the "Select output folder" ? I like to throw these movies I encode into temp files, where ever.

3) I don't want a nero encoder popup everytime I start AutoMKV. Put a check box on the message window saying "Do not show on startup", or "do not show again".

4) When using a queue, what is the difference between the "Start Encoding" and the "Start Queue" button?

5) If the main drop-down for "Audio Track 2" is set to none, why not disable the remaining controls in that group (i.e containter drop down, channel drop down, slider)

Same thing can apply to any control group where the main control essentially negates the others.

6) After I start an encode, and then I go back to AutoMKV and look at my settings (maybe adjust something to see what it does), do NOT change the Encoding status based on what I just looked at. It's confusing.



thanks Buzzqw.

@buzzqw

I've been able to get H264 encodings (MKV or MP4 containers) using separate video-only and audio-only AVS input files. As we already discussed, I now know that this will not work with wmv encodings.

How aboue XVID/AVI ? I haven't been able to get it to work. I can't get AVS inputs to work at all for audio input with XVID, including also:

1. inputing a video+audio AVS as the video file and nothing as an audio file and selecting "all audio tracks"

2. inputing this same AVS as both the video file and the track 1 audio file.

I get encodings with no audio. Is there any way to get audio from an AVS input into an AVI/XVID encoding?

@delacroixp
you can't crop by odd number , change crop(movie,9,0,-7,-0) to crop(movie,10,0,-8,-0)

don't worry, on my pcs it never got the exact lenght of movie. must be something within WMCmd.vbs AND DirectShowSource

don't know... i have negate the copy&paste here for security... ... i will do some test , if ok i will allow to paste the directory to output

i can add this to save settings, but if doing so i obligated all user to create a default profile... better to create a false neroAacEnc.exe of size > 10 bytes

on start encoding only the last queue will start, on start queue all queue wainting will start

i will consider.. but is a very low priority

for most control with "dangerous confict" is already done, if you spot something that MUST be disabled or will give a bad encoding , feel free to post

Sorry pal , but changing status AFTER and WHILE the encoding is started IS VERY VERY DANGEROUS. Automkv will check parameters (audio codec,audio bitrate, resizers...) only at time when it need this information. Better, automkc will not save all parameter when you it start encoding, but will read dinamically while encoding

@dlflannery
i will do some test, but the workflow should be the same...

update
http://www.64k.it/andres/data/a/AutoMKV078c.exe

0.78c
FIXED: AACgain doesn't work proprely on AAC/MP4 done by Coding Tech. AAC, apply an AmplifydB(7) to audio script
FIXED: Some bugs on AVS input (thanks to dlflannery)

@dlflannery
use avs like this for video

Code:
LoadPlugin("DGDecode.dll")
mpeg2source("movie.d2v")
well you can add even more plugins and filters

for audio
Code:
LoadPlugin("NicAudio.dll")
NicAC3Source("audio.ac3")
it is ok for both x264 and avi, remember that all those avs must be played ok on mediaplayer classic

Don't you just hate the 'simple solution'... ??? So I guess 2 odd crops don't make a right...

It looks like there may be room for an improved Batch Interface... I've included an image (from Dr DivX OSS) which would move the 'start encoding button' to the Batch page... allow you to move your encodes up/down the queue... add plugins.... and portray a graphic display of the progress of your encode (See pic... pending approval).

Can we get a timeout added so if no user input a choice is automatically selected? That way the rest of the job is not held up by the question of whether to add gain or not on audio.

I realize this is probably someone else's project doing this and not AutoMKV itself.
