Can VirtualDub do Mov, Mpeg, Mp4, ASF, WMV, FLV...?

[drbuzz0]

I love Virtual dub, because it's just a great simple program for transcoding and basic cutting, but damn I wish I wasn't constantly running up against formats (containers) that it wouldn't do:

Mov, Mpeg, Mp4, ASF, WMV, FLV...

In many cases it supports the codec but just doesn't know how to demux the format. Yes, I know there is virtualdubmod and virtualdubasf, but those seem to be a bit out of date and limited.

Are there any easy ways of making virtual dub read these formats?

VirtualDub supports AVI files only and it requires a suitable VfW Codecs for whatever video format is stored in the AVI.
Nevertheless you can frameserve videos into VirtualDub via Avisynth, which gives access to almost every format in existence.

You should also give Avidemux at try:
Avidemux is very similar to VirtualDub, but opens AVI, MP4/MOV, FLV, MPEG-2 and WMV directly :)

I don't suppose you know of any brutally simple semi-n00b guides for that?

I've found that Vdubmod is pretty good, but it's too damn bad is seems to be somewhat devalued.

I suppose there are no "container demuxers" or filters that can be added to virtual dub to do that job, eh? And yes, I looked on google. No dice.

I've tried avidemux. Works pretty well, but I guess I just grew up on virtualdub

No! At least not yet...

But you can use Avisynth to frameserve almost everything into VirtualDub.
Google for "Avisynth" or see the Avisynth Sub-Forum on Doom9 for infomation!

You will get used to it ;)

Also try to use the "QT4" version of Avidemux (Start -> Programs -> Avidemux -> Avidemux 2.4 QT4), which is supposed to be more Windows user friendly. It's still a little bit limited compared to the GTK+ ("Linux Style") version, but that's changing at the moment...

Hi,

Don't be put off by virtualdub, in actual
fact you can open Quicktime files,FLVs and
other non-avi files in virtualdubMOD.

You can open WMV files in VirtualdubMPEG2

You must have the codecs installed
though that enable you to do it.
Here's a codec pack that should
fill all your requirements:

http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm

In my beginners guide to Virtualdub,
I show you how to open a quicktime file.

http://forums.virtualdub.org/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=14396&

You do exactly the same procedure to open your quicktime file to open your FLV file or SWF etc.....

Hope that helps.

Well, not really. You show how to do it in VirtualDubMOD, and at this point in time, considering how far along VirtualDub has come in the last four years, they really should be considered two completely independent programs IMHO.


Edit: Oh, and drbuzz0, if the video will play in WMP or MPC, the absolute simplest way to frameserve the raw data into VirtualDub is just to use a DirectShowSource() call. Refer to Avisynth's documentation for all the optional parameters, but nine times out of ten, you can get away with something like the following:

DirectShowSource( "MyMovie.wmv" )

Save the above as whatever (e.g., "MyMovie.avs"), and then in VirtualDub, you just open MyMovie.avs. (Keep in mind at this point, both the video and audio are raw, uncompressed data, so you will have to do full processing [with compression] for both.)

VirtualDub 1.7 added a new feature: Input driver plugin API, that should allow to write plugins for other formats than avi, but there are no plugins yet, actually it seems no one noticed it.

[fccHandler]

It's been noticed. :)

http://forums.virtualdub.org/index.php?act=ST&f=7&t=14639

But I don't think the API has fully solidified, and some things don't work correctly (yet). I'll also say that writing a file input plugin is no trivial task; it requires an intimate knowledge of VirtualDub, its API, and the file format itself. So don't be disappointed that plugins aren't popping up everywhere yet.

I, for one, am rather excited that it works, and I plan to be doing a lot of coding for it in the future.

[LoRd_MuldeR]

fccHandler, now that VirtualDub v1.7.5 has gone stable, are you planning to switch to the v1.7.x series for the upcoming VirtualDub-MPEG2 builds?

[fccHandler]

Not yet. With the 1.7.x series, Avery has converted his code into a Visual Studio 2005 project. I don't have VS2005, and I don't particularly want it.

Instead, I'm investing my time into learning the new plugin API. I just uploaded my first MPEG-2 plugin tonight:

fccHandler, I just tried you new MPEG-2 plugin with VirtualDub v1.7.5, but it simply crashes as soon as I open an MPEG-2 file:

Yeah, I'm getting a lot of these today. Avery Lee seems to think the problem is in the API. Keep an eye on that thread at the VirtualDub Forum for new developments.

[LoRd_MuldeR]

I tried loading the MPEG-2 plugin via /F command, as suggested in the VDub Forums.

Now I have a new crash:
An instruction not supported by the CPU was executed at 02af7e90.

My CPU is a Core2 Quad, supporting MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3 SSSE3 and EMT64.
So I guess the illegal instruction has to be some 3DNow! operation (I think SSE4 is very unlikely)

Someone else posted a similar crash. The error message you got is a purely random thing; as you can see from the disassembly, the crash location doesn't contain valid executable code at all, just repetitious garbage.

I would bet that the true cause is the same as your previous crashes, because the call stack is the same each time. The only difference is that this crash tossed the CPU into a different block of repetitious garbage.

But Avery seems to have a good idea of what's happening, and he's fixing problems left and right. Stay tuned. :)

I think you should post your problem at the Avidemux Forums (http://www.avidemux.org/admForum/) and provide a sample file that can be used to reproduce your problem.
This way the developers can take a look at your problem and hopefully fix it...

VirtualDub 1.7.6, Build 28292 (2007-10-13)
http://virtualdub.sourceforge.net/

Build 28292 (1.7.6, stable): [October 13, 2007]

[bugs fixed]
* Cancelling the mode selection dialog for "create test video" didn't cancel
the open.
* IVTC now works when the video format is non-RGB.
* Fixed garbled image when scrolling through an animated GIF in filter
preview.
* Fixed missing frames when opening animated GIFs with zero delay times in
frames.
* Fixed sync error when processing VBR audio in Direct mode.
* PluginSDK: Not supplying a custom signature caused a sketchy match to be
returned instead of full match.
* PluginSDK: Fixed API host related crashes in filter preview and IVTC paths.
* PluginSDK: Fixed support for VBR audio.
* PluginSDK: Fixed handling of internal-decode frames.
* PluginSDK: Fixed crash when no video stream is present.
* Capture: Video filters were receiving frame times that were 1000x too
large.

[regressions fixed]
* AMD64: Fixed a pretty nasty stack misalignment issue in the 64-bit build.
* Fixed compression issues with WMV9VCM.


MPEG-2 plugin by fccHandler, Version 1.9 (2007-10-19)
http://fcchandler.home.comcast.net/Plugins/MPEG2/

Version 1.9 (October 19, 2007)

* I've done some major restructuring of the indexing code, which affects both the index file format and the index structures stored in memory. You should see significantly less memory usage.

* Saved index files now have the extension ".midx", and ".idx" files created by previous version of the plugin are no longer supported.


Version 1.8 (October 16, 2007)

* Index files created by version 1.7 were corrupt, and caused crashes. Hopefully this is fixed now.


Version 1.7 (October 16, 2007)

* I've made huge changes to the index file (.idx) format, and I've removed support for the awful index files which version 1.6 created (see below).

* Added "MPEG-2 index" to the list of supported file types, so you can open .idx files directly.


Version 1.6 (October 15, 2007)

* Added another experimental feature to the "extended options" dialog which allows you to save an index when you open an MPEG file.


Version 1.5 (October 13, 2007)

* I've added an experimental feature which allows you to open multiple MPEG files, which are joined together virtually by the plugin. To use this feature, check the "Ask for extended options after this dialog" checkbox when you select an MPEG file.


WMV plugin by fccHandler, Version 1.3 (2007-10-12)
http://fcchandler.home.comcast.net/Plugins/WMV/

Version 1.3 (October 12, 2007)

* I've done some major restructuring of the code, but that's mostly invisible to the end user. One change you will see is that the plugin now supports ASF files which don't contain video, but do contain audio. Therefore I've added "*.wma" to the list of supported extensions.

* Fixed a bug which prevented closing the Info dialog with the [X] button.

* Known bugs: Output playback stutters badly with some files.


FLV Input Plugin by Moitah, Version 0.3.0 (2007-10-12)
http://www.moitah.net/misc/FLVInputDriver-0_3_0.zip

I implemented TimeToPositionVBR/PositionToTimeVBR based on the audio tag timestamps. It seems to work pretty well, maybe I'll just leave it like this, but I'm not sure yet. Also, PCM audio might work with this version, but I don't have a FLV file to test it with (only have one .flv with PCM but there's no video stream). The synch in most files is pretty good now. I did spot one file that was quite a bit off but it isn't a problem with the audio, rather because the framerate of the video was variable.

I should warn everyone, it's a bad idea to direct stream copy the MP3 audio into an AVI. It doesn't play correctly in most players, maybe because the MP3 frames are split across the AVI chunks or something, I'm not sure.

Also if you just want to extract the MP3 without decompression, you might think to File > Save WAV and strip off the RIFF headers, but I don't recommend this because the end may be slightly truncated (I think this would be fixed by using ceil instead of rounding nAvgBytesPerSec, I'll consider doing that). Instead, I recommend FLV Extract.

I'm thinking about how to handle variable framerate videos because a handful of the FLVs I saved from YouTube are like this. I could pad gaps of missing frames with drop frames, it might not be too hard.


QuickTime Input Filter by tateu, Version 0.2.0.0
http://www.tateu.net/software/dl.php?f=qtvd_bin
http://www.tateu.net/software/dl.php?f=qtvd_src

Some of the changes/fixes:
A) Fixed a bug or three (and probably added 4 or 5 new ones).
B) Audio decoding now works.
C) Implemented the "Ask for Extended Options Dialog" (this controls the options contained in "Quicktime.ini").
D) When a movie is opened in YV12 or YUY2 mode, decoding to RGB32 is also available (this should make the preview for most, if not all, video filters work). Although, this almost didn't need to be done. I noticed there was a nice addition to VirtualDub v1.7.6 that allows video filter preview windows to open YV12/YUY2 video...thanks.
E) Creates 320x240, 30fps blank video for an audio only file (aac, etc.).

Your personal site is down:

So since I can't download these plug-ins yet to see for myself, I have a quick question.

How do these plug-ins exactly work? I mean in terms of usage, not the technical details. ;)

I assume I'll just throw your plug-ins in the "plugins" directory, and then after that, we can just open an .mpg (mpeg2) file just like we do an avi file, or is there some special procedure?

[squid_80]

No special procedure, almost exactly like you said except they don't go in plugins, you have to create a directory called plugins32 and put them in there. (plugins64 for 64-bit virtualdub, but there aren't any plugins for that yet.)

QuickTime Player can play this file?
Try set Mode=0 in Quicktime.ini.

Yes, latest Virtualdub 1.7.x test version support MP3 VBR.

http://forums.virtualdub.org/index.php?act=ST&f=15&t=14715


Alright, enough of this "stable" crap. Time to show what I've been working on in the other branch. :)

...

Why's it called 1.7.X? Because I don't know when it'll be released. So far, it looks like it'll be at least 1.7.8.

Notable new features in this version:

Video filters can now access video frames out of order and can change frame rate. There is still no support for multiple source frames yet, but this does allow for bob deinterlacing filters.
Multiple audio streams are now supported -- the source audio option is now a submenu. For those of you writing input drivers, hopefully you checked the stream number in GetAudioStream()....
The WAV audio option is now an "audio from other file" option, and can take video files that have audio tracks as well. Now we get to see which input drivers are reentrant. :)
There are now internal decoders for A-law, mu-law, MPEG layer II, and MPEG layer III audio, for when external audio codecs aren't available for those formats. Prioritization relative to audio codecs can be controlled in Preferences, AVI. (This was requested for the AMD64 build, but it is available in the X86 build as well.)
True VBR audio read/write support, including direct mode. The warning's still there right now, but it will most likely go away. This is not yet available to input driver plugins since I haven't added API extensions for it, so input drivers returning IsVBR()==true will still use "psuedo-VBR" mode.
MP3 files can be used directly. Right now this always uses VBR mode, although I plan to add CBR mode support (actually, it's there, but I don't have a way to enable it yet). Also, this is only active if you have a bare MP3 stream -- if it's a WAV file, the WAV handler currently handles it.


...

[trodas]

great simple program for transcoding and basic cutting, but damn I wish I wasn't constantly running up against formats (containers) that it wouldn't do:
Mov, Mpeg, Mp4, ASF, WMV, FLV...

I would add Mkv and Mpeg2, but other than that I damn well agree with you wholeheartedly. The plugin support for formats SHOULD fix that, but I not see people writing the plugins yet...

Looks like there is few of them already:
http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1055896&postcount=25

Dunno how functional they are, but not the mkv, witch is essential for me now...

[trodas]

BTW, what about input filter for the Real Movie (rm, ram) format?

[foxyshadis]

If a developer feels like writing one, there's no reason it can't work.

[trodas]

Well, I mean more like this - do anyone plan to do it? ;-)

[LoRd_MuldeR]

Well, I mean more like this - do anyone plan to do it? ;-)

We won't know that until somebody actually starts the project and announces it ;)

[trodas]

Well, it looks like there was an experiement or two:

fccHandler - Well, I hate to say it, but it doesn't look like this is going to work. The problem is the codec. I've come far enough to where I can extract a single keyframe from one of my .rm files, but I'm not finding a way to decompress it.

I did my best to create correct BITMAPINFOHEADERS for 'RV20' and RGB24, and to my surprise ICLocate() succeeded. It gave me a handle to ffdshow-tryouts libavcodec. Unfortunately the VFW configuration for ffdshow warns that their RV20 codec is "incomplete," and that does indeed seem to be the case. It just crashes when I send it my keyframe.

Unless I can find a solution for this, my RealMedia plugin is doomed from the start. Damn.

...but it looks like some decoders need to be finished first. I hope they will be, since then I would not need the RealPlayer alternative codecs, when FFDshow can decode it :D

[smok3]
