Thanks, RB - very nice.
PS: I did use your old M2VRequant build, and I know its a little outdated. However, Nic doesn't seem pleased with the latest versions of Makiras engine. Rejig 0.5e is from December last year, and the source contains 3 different versions of the transcoder engine. Rejig is quite big - I only need the engine with command line support. I guess I should ask Nic what to do - maybe I could pull out the "best" engine from his source. Finally, I never need to shave off more that about 4% (ie. compress ~ 96%) which seems to give real nice results even with that old version. |

@RB:
After I suggested to add a transcoder to the D2SRoBa method I went to the ReJig thread and asked a couple of questions. Here are Nic's and Dragongodz' replies: Quote:

I see, you are using it only to shrink oversized encodes a little... clever
EclCCE 1.8b is out Code:
02/04/2004 v1.8b - Fixed: compatibility issue with CCE-SP 2.50/2.62/2.64, jdobbs's DVD-Rebuilder and command line ECL loading. No more AVIFileOpen errors with DVD-Rebuilder generated ECLs for CCE-SP 2.50. - Some internal code cleaning and small fixes. |

Hi RB, do you have documentation for the .ini file? CCE 2.50 doesn't reveal access to EclCCE's global settings in the Options menu so I figured the only way to modify these settings, like the CCE Process Priority setting, would be through the .ini file.

The only two INI options supported for CCE 2.50/2.62/2.64 are
Code:
HideCancel=0|1 ; 1 hides Cancel button in progress dialog, ; default is 0 Priority=-1|32|64|128 ; for default, normal, idle, high process ; priority. Default is -1, this runs CCE with ; whatever process priority was assigned to ; EclCCE.exe |

Hey DDogg, this is getting funny, I've been thinking about this, too. Is it just the command line processing in the various ReQuant incarnations that does not let us increase file size, or is this due to engine restrictions?
I tried to browse through the source code of RD's original Requant port, but it just made me dizzy. I've never been a "real programmer" after all, and I've always hated C code. If this was possible it could sure make it even easier than it is now to fill the specified number of CDs to the limit without worrying too much about finding the right value for "Adjust %" in D2SRoBa. But it's already quite easy now, so I don't know if it's really worth the effort to modify Requant. Cheers manolito |

@DDogg, manolito:
I don't know if it is possible, I doubt it. Really, I just made that code compile without errors in VC++, I actually have no clue as to how the engine works Anyway, even if it is possible, it would of course not result in better quality. |

2.67.00.27 is out:
A little history: Version 2.67.00.27 Thursday, April 15, 2004 Bug Fix - When you output one file from Type-1 DV AVI files including ones with shorter audio than video, an application error occurred. (standalone version) ---------- Version 2.67.00.26 Friday, February 20, 2004 Bug Fixes - Video file extension was not appended when multipass CBR was selected at template. - At chapter setting window, selected frame jumped back to previous one when trying to move frame by frame using arrow keys after changing timecode. ---------- Version 2.67.00.24 Friday, December 19, 2003 Enhancement - Added blanking function. (standalone version) --------------------------------------- I hope a new EclCCE is coming with CCE 2.67.00.27 support. TIA. NA |

EclCCE 1.81 released.
CCE-SP 2.67.00.27 finally fixes the infamous memory leaks with AVISynth scripts. No more memory leaks when repeatedly opening file settings dialog (chapter setting), no more memory leaks during multipass encoding. No AddAudio() tricks necessary anymore. Code:
16/04/2004 v1.81 - Added support for CCE-SP 2.67.00.27 - Added VafFix INI parameter. Setting VafFix=1 in [EclCCE] section in EclCCE.ini causes EclCCE to handle the create_new_vaf ECL option the way it did in EclCCE v1.7b. Use this only for compatibility with utilities such as BatchCCEWS that rely on the previously "reverted" handling of create_new_vaf. |

Yes, I got error too with latest CCE Basic trial and this latest EclCCE.
And I was using the 0.48 DVD rebuilder. I installed the CCE basic trial (v2.69) and then copied the EclCCE 1.81 to the same directory. Then I just run the EclCCE and choose the CCE exe file. It goes without an error for a short while. After ~8 seconds there is an error even when I have closed the EClCCE. And I believe that the error was the same with the rebuilder too. So maybe there is some incompatibility between the latest EclCCE and these new CCE codecs. |

I have EclCCE v1.81 installed with CCE SP trial 2.67.00.23. I can save ECLs with EclCCE, but when I try to open one I get an error message "filename.ecl is not an ECL for CCE-SP". Does anyone know what this error is?
edit: I just realized that the ECL's created are empty. In fact when I load EclCCE, it will accept the AVS file no problem. But when I save the ecl, cce just quits. It creates an ecl file with 0 bytes. What's going on? edit2: I lookd back in this thread and found that Brikin had the exact same problem described as me. I tried downgrading to CCE 2.66.01.07 but no go. I also tried the latest 2.67.00.27, but for some reason it won't accept my avs files at all (Cce just quits when I try to add one). My avs is a simple test one so it only includes Mpeg2source to a d2v file. I am able to encode the avs fine using either cce or eclcce, I am just not able to save an ecl file.

Okay, I solved my own problem guys. The problem had something to do with my Avisynth plugins folder. There must have been some conflit with one of the filters present, so I wiped it clean and started from the basics with only mpeg2dec3.dll, adding one plugin at a time. In the end I couldn't find that plugin that was causing the problem, but I must have had way too many installed before including many I never used so "cleaning out" your plugins now and again is probably a good thing.

Would it be possible to add support for 2.67 retail? Obviously it doesn't need ecl support, but the command-line options for EclCCE are better (e.g. -nocancel) and the ability to minimise is extremely cool And of course there is the credits tweak as well.
