[snowcrash]

So where can I download the latest version? I looked in your forum where I've downloaded it before but I can't find it. When are you going to make a final version and update your website with proper download links for AutoRV10? Thanks.

[Dark-Cracker]

hi,

i am working on a new version (nothing really new but some few bugs and a few improve) i will try to made a full nsis script (it's a task who really dislake me :) but i will make some efforts).

same for the website i have lost my webmaster who is too busy so i must also update it and moderate the forum :( and i not have a lot of time (i will start my training period in an entreprise monday and i am really busy) but i will made my best and try to at last offer a direct link with a full package of a stable release soom :)

Update: nope, it was this one:

[wata]

thanks it work now :D
i try everything like reintalling the program and update all the VB components to the latest version, didn't know a simple eject solve the problem
is this a bug which is not fix?

[wata]

using beta 7.1 now, i notice that maximum bitrate doesn't calculate as average bitrate multiply by 5 anymore like beta 5, just +1kbps higher
is this normal?

eg.
now
<avgBitrate type="uint">668000</avgBitrate>
<maxBitrate type="uint">669000</maxBitrate>
before
<avgBitrate type="uint">668000</avgBitrate>
<maxBitrate type="uint">3340000</maxBitrate>

[wata]

batch encode doesn't work

eg.
i have six short movie to encode
all stream demux to m2v with ac3

after adding all the job to the queue and press start encoding
the program will start to decode the ac3 of the LAST task to wave,
when finish decoding, it will start to process the FIRST task which the ac3 is not decode yet

but if i decode all ac3 to wave using besweet beforehand, it work fine

[Dark-Cracker]

hi,

the dvd bug have been fixed thx to calinb. but just in case send me all the ifo file who are on your dvdrom at :
darkcracker(a)caramail.com
i will try again to see if it work correctly.
i am actually re-coding the queue job function i think the futur build will solve this bug.

EDIT :
for the max bitrate it normal because in the 2 pass mode, autorv10 use the new RateControl who ignore the maxbitrate.(i add +1 because maxBitrate should be above avgBitrate else producer will return an error).

stay tuned :)

Bye.

Hi!

I tried Autorv10 and noticed the analyze bug, too, but I found the error for me. I encoded an avs file, not a d2v file and in the preview and end avs the file is loaded correctly via import(). But in the analyze avs file it is loaded with
v = mpeg2source("E:\Temp\SOMMER~1\SOMMER~1.AVS")
and results in an error message.
In addition to that I noticed that the MaxMemory in the avs file leads to a producer which uses about 400 MB and without it uses about 50 MB.

[Dark-Cracker]

i will see for this import bug , for the maxmemory can i know the number who is set in the MaxMemory(xxx) function in you .avs script ? i don't know exactly how many mb are allowed at avisynth if this version is not found.

++

[Rumbah]

In the origianl avs file from AutoRV10 it is
SetMemoryMax(384)
and results in about 430MB for the producer process.
I simply set it to
#SetMemoryMax(384)
and the result is 50MB for the producer process so that World of Warcraft runs great with producer in background ;) .

[Dark-Cracker]

i think that when there is no setmaxmemory param avisynth use around 32Mb the fact that producer use a but more memory is surely because it store a few frames in buffer. i will perhaps think of an option to limit the maxmemory value.

thank u for the bug report.

producer 11 is out
nobody update for autorv10 ? :cool:

[buzzqw]

or autodub...
BHH

[Dark-Cracker]

i will check this update i still have some few function to finish for autorv10 (i have rewrite a part of the code) and try to provide u an update.

for autodub i will not stop this project i still have some idears to improve it i will try to work on it when autorv10 will be at a stable stage. but it's hard to keep motivation with the AutoGk tool who is used in mass i will perhaps try to oriente my software toward a network or matroska functionnality.

damn my english suck :)

The only encoding ap I've ever used that has network features is Vidomi. Even though Vidomi networking is difficult to successfully configure and is, essentially, just a batch job splitter/server, it was really convenient to queue up about a 10 or 20 jobs on the server and keep several client machines busy for a few days. No machine ever went idle because the faster ones just got served more jobs.

[Dark-Cracker]

i have fix this bug, the correction will be available in the next build.

thx for the bug report.

[Sirber]

no problem.

Also, GUI told me it was to be 695kbps, but producer started at 350kbps. :confused:

hi, i have avisynth 2.5,dgindex, and real player plus 10.5 installed on my pc, what all other things do i need to install to encode dvd movies to real video? i know this has been answrered, but i'm little confused, so pls pls can anyone give me links or just tell me what all to download?

[Dark-Cracker]

you need to have the vb6 runtime (cf in the download section of my site web).
after this you need to extract the autorv10 full package in a folder, overwrite the old file by decompressing the update archive in the same folder.
if you use the latest dgmpeg version think to overwrite the ..\Softs\avsfile\dgdecode.dll with the one provided in the dgmpeg archive.

if you have some problem after this feel free to ask and i will try to give u an answer :)

[tarantism]

autorv10 and the last producer beta? it works?

[Dark-Cracker]

yes it work.

[karl_lillevold]

Backflip: not sure which answer you found, but since your question was in the e-mail notification, I just wanted to make sure you found the right answer:

RV10 (and older RV) requires the input to be modulo 4, both width and height. If the input is modulo 16, compression is slightly more efficient, but nothing to worry about. It is better to get the cropping and aspect ratio correct. Narrow (1-2 lines) black edges would reduce compression efficiency more.

[Backflip]

Thank you for your answer :)

[raj2569]

Hi,

I am using latest AutoRV10 for encoding DVDs. I had two problems. One was that when I am using two pass vbr, my client used to freeze with in about 10 minutes of play. karl_lillevold suggested in Producer list to try with one pass vbr and that fixed this.

Another problem I am having is when I encode from a DVD, and play in real player (from server or from file), the voice is bit messed up. The symptoms are that, human voice, like speech has lower volume but action voice like gun fire has higher volume. But when I tried Lord of the Rings, in the introduction, the female narration is louder than DVD, but the strange creature's voice (the one who has the ring, just before Hobbit gets it) when it says "My Precious" is fainter.

I have read the " GUIDE: How To Properly Encode Dolby Digital Audio (AC3)" and it seems the problem is with Dialog Normalization or Dynamic Range Compression, but these settings are not possible in AutoRV10. If any files from my jobs are required, I will post them.

with warm regards,

raj

[Dark-Cracker]

hi,

i don't know why you have problem playing you video file encoded in 2 pass, i can only suggest you to be sure to clean all the previous RV codec you have install (like the Real Alternative codecpack) be sure to install the latest realplayer version and perhaps update your video card drivers, i really don't know why you have a fix and i can only come with these generic advices :)

for the audio problem.

I have read the " GUIDE: How To Properly Encode Dolby Digital Audio (AC3)" and it seems the problem is with Dialog Normalization or Dynamic Range Compression, but these settings are not possible in AutoRV10

when you open a .ac3 file you will have the button "advanced dolby digital settings" who will be un-greyed , it allow you to have access at the settings like "use dialog normalization" and "dynamic compression" i hope this will help u to adjust the setting for audio and help u to have better audio quality :)

++

[karl_lillevold]

raj2569: which audio codec and bitrate did you choose for encoding the audio?

[raj2569]

Karl:

According to the realproducer output:

Diagnostic: Using AutoRV10 Audience File Audience
Diagnostic: Using video codec: rv10 (1212710 bps)
Diagnostic: Using audio codec: cook (183290 bps)

I am using realvideo10 and cook for video and audio. I am also attaching my BeSweet logs, Audience File and real producer logs.

Dark-Cracker: I had already checked the options inside "advanced dolby digital settings", and "use dialog normalization" and "dynamic compression" are already set. The BeSweet logs will have details. But no success so far :(

with warm regards,

raj

[raj2569]

I tried to change from "MultiChannel" mode to "Surround" to see if that fixes the volume problem, and I get a dialouge box with an error. I have attached the error message box I get along with this post. The settings are the same for this and my previous encodings, except for "Channel Mode" and BitRate in "Audio Codec" section of audio.

regards,

raj

[karl_lillevold]

Yes, I think the problem might be you are encoding in RA 5.1 channels, and playing back on a two speaker system, hearing only the left and right channel. I thought DirectSound was supposed to downmix, it does that on my system, maybe that is not working in your player. Try the following, in RealPlayer, Tools->Preferences->Hardware->Sound Card Compatibility (Settings...), check the box for "Disable Direct Sound".

Regarding the error message from Producer, I would recommend to setup AutoRV10 to use the Producer that comes with it. It looks like you have set the paths to another version of Producer.

[raj2569]

Hi,

Thanks a lot, it worked perfectly when i disabled the Direct Sound. I have been struggling for 2 weeks to encoding this.

You saved my day!!

:thanks:

raj

[Dark-Cracker]

happy to see karl have solve your problem :)
i have add the solution in the FAQ.

[HASH ULTRA]

Seems you have a bug in your software v1.0b7.1 - if you have a cd/dvd in the drive when starting the program it may give you an 'Erreur 9'.

[Dark-Cracker]

yes this bug have been reported when you have a DVD in the DVDROM with more than 10 .ifo file on the disc.

could you plz confirm it was a dvd ?

[Xeno86]

Unfortunately I can't test your software because it gives me this error 'You need to have the administrator privelege !'. I'm using Windows 98 SE so I always have administrator priveleges. You should correct your software to first check Windows version and then if it is NT os check priveleges.
So far I'm disappointed :(

[Dark-Cracker]

normaly it already check the OS version, perhaps win98 SE is bad detected. i am disapointed myself :)

[Dark-Cracker]

hi,

long time no see :) i have released a new version of AutoRV10 (only a few change i have not really a lot of time with new job :) but i am still working on the project).

Here is the link (http://dark.pluridis.org/AutoRV10_v1.0_b8_update.zip)


and here the changelog :

- use an accurate overhead calculation (accurate at 99.99 %).
- rewrite a big part of the audio process.
- improve compressibility test. (now give you the *best* suggested resolution)
- handle correctly the HDTV file with a weird resolution (1920x1088 instead of 1080)
- add ELA (Edge Line Average) when using upper-resize in the anamorphic mode
- improve ColorMatrix() use (detect the need to apply a colorimetric filter)
- improve the anamorphic formula
- possibility to save image as .JPG from the preview window
- auto detect insert/eject media CD.
- add an fps limiter during the avs preview (crop window)
- Improve chapter grabbing (encode text using ISO88-59)
- possibility to use COOK instead of RACP for bitrate range 32kbps-96kbps (content patent for the HE-AAC codec use)
- select beetween STEREO or SURROUND Matrix if the codec COOK is used for the bitrate 64kbps or 96kbps.

- fix few bugs.
- clean,speedup of the code and memory optimisation.


Enjoy :)

feel free to report bug (surely some new bug in the audio part).

[#2]

Thankyou DC!!!
It's great to see you still chipping away at this :)
RV10 is still my favorite codec.

[Dark-Cracker]

happy to heard this :)

next version will have a few friendly user options and an OCR engine for the subtitle.
until the next release feel free to report bugs :)
