DivX
Personally I don't like the idea as DivX's encoder is VfW (not command line) based. At least with XviDEncRAW, MPEG-4 part 2 has the capability of been encoded and muxed correctly into MP4

From what I understand it's prefeable to generate an MPEG-4 Part-2 stream in its "elementary" or "RAW" (.M4V or .CMP) format, prior to muxing directly into MP4. In much the same way an MPEG-4 Part-10 stream is encoded into its "elementary" .h264 format prior to muxing directly into MP4. That said, I don't know if there are any tools that allow for the muxing of "elementary" .M4V or .CMP streams into AVI... But (selfishly) - I'm not really bothered.... .AVI has had it's time! Cheers

I am still having problems with AVIMUX_gui in 0.52b. Everything runs fine, I have a good video.avi file and a good audio.avi file. So everything has been working in the temp directory. When avimux_gui starts I get an error that the program must quit and the directory is locked. No files in the directory can be deleted or copied. The last time I shut down and restarted the computer all the files in the temp directory were gone when I came back to look at them.
This problem did not occur in version 0.51. Last edited by weaver4; 4th December 2006 at 18:41. |

A few very minor usability niggles...
1. When you first open AutoMKV currently defaults the Input File browse location to it's install directory (after you browse and locate your file it then remembers where it was until next time you close and reopen the app, of course). Since I, and probably most people, do their encoding in the same work folder on their hard drive, it would save some time if AutoMKV remembered which folder it last used even after you close/reopen the application. Currently, for me, browsing to my "work directory" is probably one of the slowest parts of using the GUI. 2. If you click the browse button for Select Input File and then hit cancel, the app reports "Attention - Low Disk Space or Read Only Destination" in a pop-up error dialog. 3. The Save Setting button doesn't seem to save the Custom Matrix setting. Love the new stuff (especially the new temp directory)! Keep up the good work!

Succsessfully encoded the dvd with celtic-druid's xvid_encraw! so that build seems to work without crashing =)
And btw, holy, the quality is so much better =) But one problem i have encountered. The input was 16:9, the output was 4:3 so everything was squeezed together. This even though i disabled resizing, why is it that the ratio is wrong then? It worked with x264... |

thanks for your test ! next full package will include the CD build (and so no aviwriter.dll and xvid_encraw of squid_80) BHH

Regarding the Temp folder...
With build 0.52b it doesn't seem to be moving the final file out of the temp folder to the proper destination folder when it finishes (the log file is in the destination, as it should be), if you change the output file name from the default "movie". Even worse, if you have Del Temp File selected, it happily deletes your output file along with all the other files in the temp directory! I doubt that it makes any difference, but I'm using: Code:
Container: MP4 Codec: X264 Profile: multiple CE profiles tested Audio track 1: NeroAAC, stereo, Qual 0.50 Audio track 2: None Subs: None Resizers: BicubicResize (neutral) Resizer Width: Auto Filters: RemoveGrain(mode=2), also tested with Convolution3D Output File Size: custom size, single file Movie Name: "test" and "movie" tested among others Custom Matrix: None or eqm_avc_hr Everything else default I'm generally encoding NTSC MPEG-2 files recorded by BeyondTV (along with some DV files I recorded myself), and I generally want to keep them full resolution but have the AR corrected. I've been setting it to Resizer Width = 720, and using BicubicResize (neutral). Is this probably the best method? What is generally considered to be the best resizing method for most non-anime type media balancing speed and quality (or are they not significantly different in speed with modern CPUs)? If there's a definitive posting on this, can someone point me towards it? I've searched but I'm tiring of wading through tons of useless/conflicting stuff.

Now guess what happened, when i used autoresizing, the vertical black lines apeared on the door again, no deinterlacing was used this time. (The ones that you can see on the screenshot i posted a few days ago) So cant be deinterlacing or a codec specific problem. So i am guessing its the resizer that creates those vertical lines, is that possible? Doing a test with lancosresize now... Last edited by crashed; 4th December 2006 at 23:41. |

RE: WMV support...
When I throw a .ts source at AutoMKV and attempt to encode a WMV (I know, I know it's alpha!) I get the following... http://consumeroo.com/files/automkv-wmv1.png Is that normal? One last thing, Here's my log, http://consumeroo.com/files/memoirs....i.test2.ts.log What I am noticing, is the auto-cropping is doing it's job a little too well... it's cutting in to atleast 25% of the picture leaving a 1280px wide movie, but only a 448px tall. Does anyone have any idea why it's doing this? EDIT: WMV support seems to work well, I have tested 4 different files and so far I like the results. Too bad it's about half the fps I get with x264... Any idea when you'll have WMA 10 with 5.1 audio working? Last edited by travisbell; 5th December 2006 at 07:03. |

Here is what I found.
If I use a directory like c:\Test or e:\AMKV-out as my output directory it would not fail if I used e:\Movies\Output as the output directory the AviMux_Gui would come back with an exception and then quit. This is when I did not delete the temp files and the movie name was "movie". Using AviMux_Gui manually worked fine. I am using the XviD-CQ profile. And when I get though the "movie.avi" (without audio) is in the Output directory and the "movie_full.avi" file is in the Output/temp directory, exactly backwards. |

How about opening a new thread for your new build and asking Bond to close this one?
I'm of the opinion that new users (to any application) are either too lazy or frightened away if they see long threads.... Breaking the development of an application down into more manageable chunks seems a better alternative

Hi Buzz,
Good news.... Neuron2 is working on a fix for DGIndex when importing .TS streams like the one Fogbav tried to encode from. http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...735#post912735 Maybe his proposed beta could be incorporated into your proposed beta
