Finally: Avisynth, Codecs, Virualdubmod under Linux
Hi
The only reason for me to still use windows was encoding. And this only because of avisynth. Well it is no more needed. Today I managed to get everything I need to run under wine. Avisynth, Xvid Beta2 Codec, Virtualdubmod, DGIndex etc. and because a picture says more than 1000 words: -wine0.92 -winetools0.9jo-II running on Archlinux Last edited by mic64; 3rd December 2005 at 11:32. |

As I don't do any multmedia stuff in windows, i am not sure what these products (avisynth, xvid beta2 codec, virtualdubmod & dgindex) do that can't be done under native linux apps.
Not criticising you, but I'm just curious as to why this needed to be done. Cheers. |

Hi
If you just want to do DVD to XviD or so. This can be done easily with native linux apps. But If you want to encode HD stuff to xvid there is nothing equivalent to avisynth, cause you have to telecide, decimate etc. mencoder can do some of those things, but the results are not really good (yet). If you check some threads here, you´ll find out that there is nothing like avisynth. mic |

Hi
its avisynth 2.56a. No big problems so far. Only thing that happens is that some programms distortion your desktop (parts of it going black). But minimizing and maximizing the window solves it. mic Last edited by mic64; 3rd December 2005 at 17:00. |

Hello and thank you for the interesting post. the only reason i still use windows is the same as yours. Are You going to write a guide or give hints to what you did to get everything working ?? The only thing I have working with wine right now is Tmpegenc DVD author. Any guides or other info you used would be well appreciated by the rest of us "encoders" looking to dump windows for good! Thanks a billion PClinux .094 |

I installed wine 0.92 and backed up my old .wine folder to get an fresh start.
DVDshrink worked perfectly after installation without any configuration . I wasn't able to install avisynth 2.56a, I still got the same error as before (something about some problem in thread 9?). Avisynth 2.53 worked almost as well as with the older version of wine. It gave me some odd "unrecognised error" when I used trim or lanczosresize in the script but worked when I used last.trim or last.lanczosresized!?! Virtualdubmod complained about some missing yv12 decoder, I'll look in to that when I get home. Other programs like PGCEdit, Vobblanker, PGCDemux, QuEnc, HC, DGIndex works as well as before. @mic64 Which version of virtualdubmod did you install? Regards, M7S

ok thats how I did it.
1. save your .wine DIR 2. install wine 0.92 3. grab winetools from here http://www.von-thadden.de/Joachim/Wi....html#software I guess you know how to install it etc. 4. then choose "Base Setup" from winetools / Create Fake Windows Drive 5. install everything else from this tab (of course only one language neeeded) 6. Main Menu / Install Windows System Software / install everything here 7. install some fonts. I installed all 8. install your apps for encoding I´m using VDubMod 1.5.10.1 and like said only few issues with the screen. All avisynth filters that I´m using are working. decimate, telecide, lanzcos, colourmatrix, etc.. Ok.. I hope you can soon stop booting into win or using vmware. From the speed point of view..no difference to win. Maybe its few minutes slower, but if your encode takes 10-20 hours it doesn´t matter. mic64 Last edited by mic64; 5th December 2005 at 20:12. |

BTW. Has anyone managed to get Avisynth or Virtualdub subtitle-plugins to work. Everything seems to work ok and there are no errors or crashes, but no subtitles.
So far I've tried Avisynth Textsub and Virtualdub Subtitler. Both are latest versions. |

Great! it works!.
However, I'm having some trouble with VirtualDub. I installed ffdshow 20051103 (and enabled some 4cc in VFW) and X264 r293A but Virtualdub only show x264, in Video->Compression... ffdshow codec is missing. |

I am impressed
I think in some of my older posts you can see me crying after avisynth. When i was on Windows, using VirtualDub + Avisynth was the coolest thing ever, especially Avisynth as the things you wrote in there were so quick to make changes that I wrote a standard avs file for my most common changes. It was FUN to play around with it, and it was rather easy too. Sadly I never became a real expert with Avisynth. Nowadays I mostly rely on mencoder but it is GREAT to have alternatives, and I will try out Avisynth when i have more time.

Finally it works!
Virtualdub needs vidc.FVFW=ff_vfw.dll (yes, only this one to enable full ffvfw) in system.ini. This is my ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system.ini file: Code:
[mci] MPEGVideo=mciqtz.drv MPEGVideo2=mciqtz.drv avivideo=mciavi32.dll cdaudio=mcicda.dll sequencer=mciseq.dll vcr=mcivisca.drv ; videodisc=mcipionr.drv waveaudio=mciwave.drv [drivers32] MSACM.imaadpcm=imaadp32.acm MSACM.msadpcm=msadp32.acm MSACM.msg711=msg711.acm MSACM.winemp3=winemp3.acm VIDC.MRLE=msrle32.dll VIDC.MSVC=msvidc32.dll VIDC.CVID=iccvid.dll ; VIDC.IV50=ir50_32.dll ; VIDC.IV31=ir32_32.dll ; VIDC.IV32=ir32_32.dll vidc.X264=x264vfw.dll vidc.FVFW=ff_vfw.dll |

The wine project seems to be turning in excellent work as of late.
Running Cinema Craft Encoder in wine is a hoot. The speed's not quite there yet, but good stuff none the less. . clicky for full size . |
