vcf - avs conversion tool - edit captures in vdub
Dark$oul71 sent me a nice litte tool to convert vcf to avs files.
you can edit your captures in vdub, then open the resulting avs with gknot. give it a try! EDIT: follow Dark$oul71s link further down in the thread for download. wef. from the readme: Quote:

Hi there,
if you´ve any suggestions, bug-reports, feature requests then either PM me or post them into this thread. I´m currently working on a new version that will have a audio processing module. There you can add any AVS file generated by VCF2AVS and Virtualdub will be run with a generated script to save a wave file from the AVS. Afterwards this wave file can be converted with BeSweet using a configurable commandline. So you can convert the wave to OGG, MP3 or MP2 as you like. By using a filelist multiple files can be "batch-processed". This will take a few days. So please be patient. I´ll post a URL where to download the new version ASAP. cu, D$ |

Hi guys,
according to this thread: - GKnot 0.27 Segmented AVI loading isn't 'VCF 2 AVS' little bit of a detour? this script Code:
SegmentedAviSource("D:\capture\capture000.avi") just wondering, where is the advantage of vcf2avs? I don't want to sound sniffy but... Sill

I´m not forcing anyone to use VCF2AVS but if you´ve to get through a lot of analogue captures it makes your live easier. Try the x-fade "feature" on some TV captures. I think you´ll like it. Of course I didn´t reinvent the wheel. All this can be done by hand with AVISynth scripts but if you get used to VCF2AVS even 4-5 movies can be edited and set up in a few minutes. By adding a audio module (I´ve finished it but still have to do some testing) generating multiple, normalized MP3-files from AVI are no problem anymore. @Zhnujm: I can add "support" for AVS as input but honestly I don´t understand the reason for this. Isn´t the "normal" way AVI->AVS->GKnot->DivX ? Please give an example.. cu, D$ |

i am trying to use it with mpeg2 (dvb) captures and so i have to use an avs file for opening in vdub. the generated avs file with the trim range would not only be useful for gknot, i was more thinking about reencoding to mpeg-2. still trying a few possible ways as my dvd-r arrives in a few weeks.
but theres no real need to implement avs input, im already happy with the range->trim conversion and the cropping can be done easily manually. btw, theres a small bug, the "fade in+out" button also enables/disables the cropping. |

Hi,
I´ve just finished my audio processing module and uploaded VCF2AVS to my server. You can download it here: http://home.debitel.net/user/holger....ad/VCF2AVS.zip Currently I use VirtualDub to extract the audio from AVI and save it as wave file. I know that BeSweet supports AVI file(s) as source but this feature is still labeled as "beta". Honestly I haven´t tried BeSweet on AVI files. As soon as BeSweet supports all sorts of AVI files as source (big files > 4 Gb / AVS files / etc) I´ll remove the usage of VirtualDub for saving the audio track and process the AVI directly with BeSweet. @ Zhnujm: Quote:
BTW: I´ve added AVS files to the Opendialog. Now you can also choose AVS as source. cu, D$ BTW: A happy new year to every1. Last edited by Darksoul71; 10th January 2003 at 16:09. |

Actually I'm not in the position to grimp - because you are the one who can develop such tools - I can't ;-( Quote:
wOOt, now you made me feel like testing it imediatly... maybe tonight: PRO7 @ 20:15h ;-) thanks dude and again sorry for my stupidity... regards Sill /Edit: your new link doesn't work /Edit2: now it does - and yeah, of course happy new year

DVX as gimmick in the AviSynth script editer for some time now, I had code it in order to make a comp test when VirtualDub was used for cutting but the normal way is to cut with VirtualDub and encode with LameACM, extracting wave with VirtualDub and encode then with BeSweet usually goes out of sync!

Maybe I am misunderstanding the use of this tool, but I am curious. In this thread manono said this:

Otherwise you´ve to stick to the manual way. @all: VCF2AVS has a small problem with long pathnames. So if VDub doesn´t save a correct wave or BeSweet doesn´t run, then copy VCF2AVS in a upper directory. I´ve stored it in "C:\winapp\VCF2AVS\" and everything runs fine. I´ve made some code changes and will release a new version this weekend. So stay tuned /Edit: I´ve uploaded a new, fixed version to my homepage. As I´m lazy as usual, here´s a small copy from the readme: Version History: ================ V1.4 - 10.1.2003 Hopefully fixed some bugs in the audio encoding module that prevented VirtualDub from saving the wave file under correct name and therefore caused BeSweet to crash during encoding. This should also solve the problems that occured when long pathnames and/or long filenames were used for AVS files. I´ve also eleminated the use of a batch file to call VDub and BeSweet. Now both tools are called from VCF2AVS directly. Added support for using a different INI-file at commandline. Now you can copy the VCF2AVS ini file, rename it and use seperate settings for BeSweet. Example: You encode audio both to MP3 and MP2. Copy the existing VCF2AVS.ini and edit the BeSweet commandline like discribed below. Save it under a new name (like MP2.ini). Now create two shortcuts: One without any parameter behind the filename. VCF2AVS will open the standard Ini-file. Create another shortcut like "VCF2AVS.exe C:\VCF2AVS\MP2.ini". This will launch VCF2AVS using the MP2 audio ini. May be I´ll implement multiple profiles for VCF2AVS but currently this should be flexible enough. -D$ Last edited by Darksoul71; 12th January 2003 at 21:16. |

New version of VCF2AVS !
=====================================
Update: I´ve change some things and added batchsplittting of AVI files based on AVISplitCalc. V1.5 - 12.1.2003 Added some minor error checks to prevent VCF2AVS from crashing at the stupid errors. Added batch AVI splitting with the use of AVISplitCalc. Just edit the path in the VCF2AVS.ini. For me this is: AVISplitPath=C:\winapp\avisplit\ Set your splitsize (700 MB default). Add (multiple) AVI files to the box and click at the "process file(s)" button. Now AVISplitCalc is called and automaticly splits all files and stores them in the directory that is configured at AVISplitCalc. The renaming conventions can be configured inside AVISplitCalc. If you check the box "delete file" your source AVI will be deleted but I don´t suggest to use this unless you are low at diskspace because it´s safer to check the splitted AVI first be4 deleting the source AVI. I also removed BeSweet from the package because of size. ===================================== http://home.debitel.net/user/holger....ad/VCF2AVS.zip -D$ |

Hi ,
I´ve just released the latest version of VCF2AVS. Latest features: ============ V1.8 - 26.1.2003 Automatic demuxing and generation of AVS-script for MPEG2 files. Currently only MPEG-audio is supported for direct opening via MPEG Audio import DLL for AVISynth. Also converting MPA to wave is supported by my tool mpA2Wav. I´m planing to support also AC3 but this depends on AVISynth support for AC3. Renaming of target AVS based on VCF file is supported now. Just open up a VCF file and press "CTRL+R" and your target AVS is renamed as your VCF file. I made this for people that capture full VHS tapes to one big / or multiple AVIs and use several VCF files for each movie. V1.6 - 12.1.2003 Fixed error that prevented VirtualDub from finding the script file for saving wave(s) when VDub was stored in a path with country specific characters. Thanks to Sillkotscha for pointing out... Added multiple profiles for audio encoding: OGG, MP3, MP2 and AC3 You can edit those presets inside the VCF2AVS ini as discribed to the BeSweetParam below. Ini-Values are named (guess what): MP3, MP2, OGG and AVI So now instead of BeSweetParam you´ll find the following presets: MP3=-core ( -input "%in" -output "%out.mp3" ) -ssrc ( --normalize ) -lame( --abr 128 ) MP2=-core ( -input "%in" -output "%out.mp2" ) -ssrc ( --normalize ) -mp2enc ( -b 224 -m o s ) OGG=-core ( -input "%in" -output "%out.ogg" ) -ssrc ( --normalize ) -ogg( -b 128 ) AC3=-core ( -input "%in" -output "%out.ac3" ) -ssrc ( --normalize ) -ac3enc ( -b 256 ) Feel free to edit as you like Fixed some minor bugs Added check for VCF2AVI.ini: If no ini-files exists in your VCF2AVS directory then you´ll get a warning ("No Ini-file found !!!") and VCF2AVS will exit. -D$ P.S.: Download as discribed above |
