Please keep this thread clean. So, no

* War about the file list features.
* War about Matroska support.

Thanks.

Eretria-chan · 1st August 2006, 18:44

It's really a shame about no matroska support. There is really no way to change your mind? I'm currently investigating into encoding a file and audio and will later, when finished, test merging into a matroska container. I could help you get it right IF you want. I'll respect your wish if you say no.

Sirber · 1st August 2006, 18:55

Lain said eariler that he will do an interface to batch convert MP4 to MKV, with surely more options than what RA does.

Eretria-chan · 1st August 2006, 19:05

Okay, sounds good to me, then.

[irony]why don't you remove realanime5 aswell? [/irony]

Sirber · 1st August 2006, 19:41

Do you like 24MB installers?
With all that removed, the installer shall be around 6 MB.

Also, I'm pretty sure you already have those so...

Eretria-chan · 1st August 2006, 19:45

Of all those, I can say I don't have MPC. What is Helix Codecs anyway?
On a side note, you DO know that the installer leaves all those installation files in RA's direcotry, yes? They just lie there like useless files and take up space.

Sirber · 1st August 2006, 20:06

Helix Codecs are YUV/"something else" used to decode the output of AVS so x264 can read it... or is it the player...

karl_lillevold · 1st August 2006, 20:09

Pretty well explained here:
Helix YV12 / I420 VFW Codecs

Eretria-chan · 1st August 2006, 20:40

Ah, so I take it it is needed for the ConvertToYV12 statement in the avisynth file.

Sirber · 1st August 2006, 20:54

no, IIRC it was to playback AVS in MPC since I didn't have xvid_vfw.dll.
ConvertToYV12 is for x264

Eretria-chan · 1st August 2006, 21:02

It did say there was no library for YV12 for compression. I was just figuring if it was necessary to have Helix installed when using RA. Although I already have it installed, would it work if it was uninstalled later, since it will be removed from the installer?

YouDontKnowMe · 1st August 2006, 21:50

1. why is your homepage down and there is just a white html with dls ?

2. okay I understand what you mean and when it just lays useless there then its better to remove them and anyways 6mb is a great installer (compared to the other RA's installers)

3. could you add a "shutdown" option to RA5 ? like when I go to holidays and I have 200eps animes to encode and I don't want to keep running the pc for 6 weeks but just for as long as the encode needs. Would that be "madeable" ?

anyways just keep up the great work and thank you for inventing such a ingenious app

No more fancyness and useless time spending. I found a new hobby, which is photography!

So less sitting in front of the PC, less time for dev.

[edit]

it's no html, it's XHTML Strict 1.0

Sirber · 2nd August 2006, 02:11

With all the crap removed the installer is 3.56MB

Sirber · 2nd August 2006, 02:23

Alright, beer and coding is good. look at all the green above

I'm sure we can get alpha 2 soon once the filelist is rebuilt.

@all

I truely appreciate all the good words I got from you guys. Keeps me going

Sirber · 2nd August 2006, 02:28

alright, I feel like a CVS dump

Download!

@YouDontKnowMe

Thanks again for your kind words

Kayser · 2nd August 2006, 04:00

I'm gonna test it

... Today I ran tests on RA5 Alpha 1 and it did pretty good for my sources, the only problem I spotted was the file list but it's going to be changed so nothing to report...
Thanks as always for your work Sirber!

Sirber · 2nd August 2006, 12:07

I added the missing DLL to the installer.

MSVCP70.DLL is needed by avs2wav and not everybody has it.
