Dark-Cracker · 24th April 2002, 19:10

hum hum nobody seems to be interested by testing this (super

) tool ? plz take one or two min for finding a bug :-)

it was the little brother of jonny's divx5enc

i will shot a bullet in my head if no body want to help me. :-) else it's not important have a goo day.

Head Hunter · 25th April 2002, 01:09

I tested with Divx 5 and Xvid and it worked great. With DivX 4 the filesize was getting huge, but I installed 4 with the Nimo pack and not the inf on the other thread, so it was probably installed different and thus does not work properly.

Dark-Cracker · 25th April 2002, 02:10

yes it perhaps for this u get a huge filesize, i am actually finish to add the detection of the codec on the computer, seems to work nice, i have also tested with Divx Pro 5/Divx Pro5.0.1 and it work too with the Divx5 and Divx5.0.1 free version , i just finish some little modification and i will post surelly this new release.
Stay tuned

TODO :
------

add autodetect codec installed
add profil for each codec (generic 1Cd/2Cd)
add a bitrate calculator
add encoding audio
add mux audio/video
add split final movie

PS: what is your configuration ? (winXp/win2k...etc)
which codec and which options have u used ? (divx5 pro or free ? xvid build...)
do u have see bug/problems ? (bad filesize, don't shutdown)
do u some options that u want to see added ?
are u happy to the result (except for the divx4) ? and by this tool

the much informations an the most people testing this tool could to make it better.

u can try ofcourse most test on this prog, just writte a word if somethink seems wrong .

Ps: for the 2pass (both) Xvid with the luminance + hintMe this work like this : do the first pass with hintme "on" and luminance "off" then do the second pass with HintME "off" and Luminance "on" ,like in doom9 guide.

PS: sorry for my bad english (i hope u have understand what i try to sy), and thank u very much for testing my tool

bye

Head Hunter · 25th April 2002, 06:08

I'm running ME here, I can try 2k for you this weekend. I was using DivX5.01 pro with B-Frames and I tried with Nic's 24.04.02 XviD build. File sizes were good and I didn't nitice any bugs. I did not try out the shut down feature yet, but I will let you know if I have a problem with it the next time I test it. And thank for the new program to make my life easier.

roy · 25th April 2002, 07:11

I'm running XP and options "shutdwon" works here correctly.

hippoth · 25th April 2002, 11:39

I wish there would be the possibility to use vfapi and virtualdub...not just gordianknot...for more flexibility

is it possible for future?

:o)

Dark-Cracker · 25th April 2002, 15:47

thank u all for testing my prog , this tool make my life easier too :-)

it seems there is no bug with video encoding, i will release a new version with codec detection , and perhaps generif profil for encoding 1Cd/2Cd.

after i will add the audio encoding part.
Stay tuned

>I wish there would be the possibility to use vfapi and
>virtualdub...not just gordianknot...for more flexibility

why do u want use vfapi ? it work in RGB less faster than YUV12 (avisynth), for the moment my program accept .avs input and work always in "faster encoding" mode in Virtualdub.

but if you want use an .avi input i will add a button for switcing on/off the faster mode.

if you dont want using Gkont for generating the .avs file and
if you understand a bit the french u can use the AVSTool from DrMad (little modification by me : added the colortweak / ivtc / desinterlace / smooth filter ) read this thread :
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23781

still (graphical) buggy but it work well.

thank u all for testing autodub

roy · 25th April 2002, 16:53

It is a great pleasure to do it.

Dark-Cracker · 26th April 2002, 04:48

new release please read the thread :
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23833

New :
-----
Divx4 pass 3 (for an exact final size)
codec auto verification
little optimization of the code
....

read the thread for more comments.

PS: i hope the moderator have accept the attached file (my site is down).

Bye thank u for testing this version.

Dark-Cracker · 26th April 2002, 11:31

i have correct the link see the another thread

Wilbert · 26th April 2002, 16:57

Maybe I did something wrong. But I installed VDub1.4.10 and download DivX4.12 from your side. But if I click on autodub.exe it says "MSVBVM60.DLL not found" (I'm using Win98). What kind of driver is that?

Head Hunter · 26th April 2002, 18:16

DivX 4 3-pass worked great.

Dark-Cracker · 26th April 2002, 19:01

@Head Hunter
thank u very much for testing the Divx4Pass3 :-)
do u find any problems with the other codecs ? (because i have modify the job file creation)

does the "auto detect codec" have find the installed codecs ?
do u have test the encoding with the other codecs ?

@Wilbert
my tool requires the latest VB runtime file "VBRun60sp5.exe". You can download the file here :
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/

thank u for testing this little tool.

PS: because Divx4 3pass are very long perhaps Dimitry (autor of Divx4log) will help me to add a generic tweak for the divx.log file in order to obtain the best quality , but it not sure, just in project.

PS: i just finish the processing logging and add the systray mode the new release will be out in a few hours.

PS2: i think add the support Divx3 with nandub does someone know if i should obligatoirely correct the motion curve to obtain the right final file size or if i start the two pass, the result will be an correct final file with a correct file size ?

Head Hunter · 26th April 2002, 20:41

The auto-detect showed all my codecs, I didn't retest DivX 5 or XviD with the new version yet, but I will this weekend.

Dark-Cracker · 27th April 2002, 01:41

@Dead Hunter
thank u for testing my tool , i think this project only interest me and you , i dont have receive much answer about this thread :-(

But anymore there is a new version :

http://membres.lycos.fr/darkangel47/Autodub1.2.zip

NEWS :
------

1.2

- Add a basic "Loggin Mode" for encode process
- Add the VirtualDub Priority level
- Add Show/Hide input, output video in Vdub
- Add Support of all Divx4 version (not only Divx4.dll)
- Disable Some Options if Divx 5.x LITE codec is found
(Pre Processing / Quarter / GMC / Bidirectionnal)
- Add Systray mode when encode

Know Bug : i must fixe the problem if you stop Divx4 3rd pass

I will do some test on the Divx3 with Nandub and i will perhaps add in the futur a "Nandub SBC" support.

I wait your comments/request about this new version.

Head Hunter · 27th April 2002, 02:23

Tried it on my win2k machine and all went well. I do have a request though. Could we have an option to keep our settings so they don't have to be changed everytime we open the program.

Dark-Cracker · 27th April 2002, 02:28

i am actually doing this modification for saving in the .ini file the setting.

Always not bugs found

?

Head Hunter · 27th April 2002, 03:33

Both my computers (winME and 2k) haven't run into any problems yet, though I haven't tried the shutdown feature yet. But I leave my comp on overnight anyway, so it is not needed for my purposes.
Other than possibly that, no bugs to report. Keep up the good work.

Dark-Cracker · 28th April 2002, 16:30

after an important request the support of divx5 is stopped .

i am actually finis to add the support of Divx3 with nandub and the audio part, more options were added in the Xvid settings.

(archive on the server were deleted)

Stay tuned.
