For some reason, I can't open my 1280x720 AVC/AAC video in MP4 format in the newest version of Avidemux. The only difference between this one and the others is that this one was a long 6.8gb encode while the others were less than 1 gig. I even split the 6.8gig video using YAMB into a few 1 minute MP4 files and those opened just fine. Is there a limit to the filesize for Avidemux? I tested this on SVN -4170

Apparently MVBob is an Avisynth script using various Avisynth plugins. This will make it hard to port MVBob to Avidemux. All the plugins would need be ported and also they would have to be combined the same way the MVBob script does. Why not use MVBob in Avisynth and then open your AVS script in Avidemux via AVSProxy?

Again: MVBob is a bobbing script for Avisynth. It's not a plugin!

Porting Avisynth plugins to Avidemux is possible and has been done before. It only needs somebody willing to do it.
But it's not possible to port an AVS script, such as MVBob, to Avidemux! At least it won't be easy.
What could be done is: Port all plugins used by MVBob to Avidemux and then emulate what the MVBob script does.
Obviously this would be a huge piece of work. Also we already have several bobbers in Avidemux.

If you only "heard" that MVBob is better than "others", why not try the Bobbers provided by Avidemux first?
And if you really want to use MVBob after you tried Avidemux' bobbers, you can use MVBob in Avisynth as it's intended to be used.
Remember: Avidemux does support Avisynth input...

The comment was about Avidemux and MP4 files, not about VirtualDub and AVI. AFAIK there is no MP4 support in VirtualDub at all.

At the moment Avidemux simply doesn't support 64-Bit MP4's, so we are limited to 32-Bit MP4's.
Therefore the maximum size for MP4 files is currently limited to 2^32 Byte = 4294967296 Byte = 4 Gigabyte.

Once support for 64-Bit MP4's is implemented in Avidemux you will be able to open and edit MP4 files without size limit...

1. You can't "import" bobbing filters (or any other filters) into Avidemux that easy. The filter has to be ported, which means a software developer must at least understand, modify, compile and test the source code (assuming the source code of the filter is available to the public). Now that Avidemux supports plugins this work is less annoying: You can add new filters without having to re-compile the core application. Nevertheless somebody with sufficient coding skill must be willing to do it and must have the time to do it...

2. Again my question: If you insist on using a specific Avisynth script/filter, namely MVBob, why not use Avisynth then? I already told you that Avidemux supports Avisynth input. Simply try AVS Proxy respectively AVS Proxy GUI. If you are not familiar with Avisynth yet, look at the Avisynth docs or the Avisynth section on this forum...

What you can do to help:

Provide an incentive, typically money.
Find a developer willing to tackle it.
Learn C++ and do it yourself.

What never helps:

Repeatedly pestering the same people trying to tell you why they won't do it in the near future, showing no attempt to learn what you're talking about.

Any chance to add Lanczos4 resizing in avidemux filters?

Thanks for make this great program.

LoRd_MuldeR

2nd July 2008, 13:47

I think Avidemux uses libswscale to do the resizing, which also includes the Lanczos resize method.
Furthermore I think that "Lanczos4" refers to Lanczos Resize with Taps=4 instead of Taps=3, like the "normal" Lanczos does.
So making the Taps parameter adjustable, like in ffdshow, should do what you want...

Nope. Since the Psy RDO patch changes the interface of libx264.dll, you cannot replace libx264.dll with a patched one that easy.
The Avidemux core application needs to be modified and re-compiled too...

I'm sorry my bad english
I'm waiting yours help!!

The Nero AAC encoder can not be incorporated into Avidemux, because:

1. It's not OpenSource !!!
2. It's not allowed to distribute Nero AAC with another program
3. Avidemux does not use CLI encoders, but Nero AAC is exclusively provided as CLI encoder.
4. Nero AAC is not available as a library that could be used by Avidemux

AAC is VBR (Variable Bitrate) by nature. Maybe you set 64 kbps as average bitrate, but 96 kbps is reported as maximum bitrate?

Did you check the resulting bitratein a player that shows the actual bitrate while playing, instead of just the average or maximum bitrate?

Psy RDO now scales automatically, based on the quantizer of the frame. Think that is the most noticeable change between v0.3 and v0.5.
Also note that "Gruntster's Alignment-Fix" is and was always included, because it's required to call libx264 as a DLL ...

Lower filesize doesn't mean "better". See the Psy-RDO thread for more explanations.

Yes, but he was referring to Psy RDO v0.3 vs. Psy RDO v0.5, not to Psy RDO as a whole.

My test showed that Psy RDO makes the file bigger at same CRF, which isn't a big surprise. But compared to v0.3 the v0.5 patch creates slightly smaller files.
In his test the file became actually bigger when switching from v0.3 to v0.5 for some reason. Of course this cannot be used to judge v0.3 vs. v0.5 !!!

A proper test would compare Psy RDO v0.3 against PsyRDO v0.5 in 2-Pass Mode, using the same average bitrate (same target filesize) ...

Is there any added GUI settings for the Psy-RDO stuff? If so, where do I look in the x2264 config to find it?

There is no GUI control for Psy RDO, because it's not in official Git yet. There already is a GUI control for VAQ, but only in Avidemux 2.5 (not released yet).
Also note that Psy RDO v0.5 scales automatically, based on the quantizer! The "--psy-rd" option only is an additional scaling factor, which is multiplied to the internal scaling factor.
Since you should keep "--psy-rd" at 1.0000 unless there is a very good reason to change it, a GUI control is not very important...

Note that you must use "subme" (Partition Decision) at 6 or higher to use Psy RDO. It will be off otherwise....
