BatchCCEWS change requests

[Trahald]

OK.. the source is available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/batchccews/ on cvs. added is support for 2.70.x , d3s7 added a vaf option, i added stuff from revpulldown so now it can create vif files for scenarist and also avoid .5 errors on ntsc pulldown. This branch is unstable.. i'll make a binary available over the weekend but i havent tested it much (ok.. any) i'll keep you updated.

Is it possible to add a " make ECL " button?it will make a ECL of all job loaded in BatchCCE.

[Trahald]

i compiled a unstable version. it is just the .exe . if you have time try it out. especially pal people since i cant really test that. dont use it for mission critical stuff yet. i havent had time to really test it myself. More to come. available at link above on sourceforge.net

here is the change log

<0916a unstable>
- Added support for cce 2.70.x
- Added pan and scan and corrected ntsc .5 errors and create .vif file option (speeds up import in scenarist) by using my modifications to revpulldown
- Added option to use existing vaf file
- Software is now covered under the GNU General Public License
- Max GOP option which picks the biggest gop size (m / n/m ) for film/pal/ntsc-video 12/15/18

i guesso.. lemme think about that...

Working auto angle detection would be nice.

A somewhat more clear procedure when making changes. Now you have to press the replace button. I would rather have a dialog box or so.

And keep up the good work of course !

[D3s7]

It does work.... at least w/ the Scenaid Switch

BBWoof finished it before he turned over the project.. just never released a build that had it in

Trahald, what version number does this build reflect so I can update Scenaid to use the newer ccedata format w/ this?

[Trahald]

0.9.1.6 even though youve had that for a while (bbwoofs old 0916), since it was never public i decided not to skip the number. If it would be better tho i could just as easy use 0917

[D3s7]

nope that's fine... already coded for >= that...

so, if using this new version, Scenaid will auto switch to the new ccedata format which passes angle info to batchccews

[Trahald]

<0916b Unstable> fixed vif creation ( i added something stupid to my revpulldown code when i brought it over to batchccews.. not sure what i was smoking) fixed now.

i started other stuff but commented it out.. i think i'll make more progress soon as summer comes. i'll work on summore of the suggestions in this post.

ahh.. i found the issue.. the qmat_idx value is written correctly to the ecl file from what you choose. the problem is this.. if (cceVer > "2.50.01.00") then it writes a bunch of values from the template to the ecl including the qmat_idx. the second value is what cce uses (if you look at your ecls for cce > 2.50.01.00 you will see some values written twice.)

i'll comment out the double stuff ( i imagine some of it is stuff that isnt in 2.50 ecls but is in later versions.. but maybe not) the code isnt commented with a reason.

That is very promising. Thanks Trahald
