HDConvertToX v. 3.0 (14/10/2010)

[Chengbin]

I can't simply don't resize and crop. I have to.

[buzzqw]

set crop to 0, resize to original width

(OR if you are brave test this : http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconverttox/HDConvertToX-ana.exe )

[buzzqw]

update NEW FULL PACKAGE

added support for BassAudio Plugin (only used for "Encode Only Audio" and WMA audio codec)
added support for hidden options: shutdown.txt, reboot.txt, suspend.txt
added a "Hidden Options files" folder, inside this folder you will found ready hidden options files
fixed eac3to is unable to normalize mp2 or aac audio. added a workaround
fixed MP3 CBR audio muxing in avi
fixed opening supported movie or audio files
fixed when opening as input an audio file, there is no more need to analyze the file
added anamorphic encoding (thanks to SMD for test!)

BHH

[spida_singh]

Many thanks for these quick updates, just a question, does the tools copy audio function keep Hi Def tracks? I want to backup Rush Hour 3, it has a 7.1 DTS-HD track, would this be muxed with the resulting video, or, is the dts core used as the track in the end result?

Regards

[Betsy25]

Tiny editing request to buzzqw,

Is it possible when you update the full package to also make the regular (non full-) Update to get some extra info in the TOP POST of this thread, because people don't know if this seperate update still is intended for the full update above it.

For example, now we have:

Full Download (please download also the updates) -> http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconv...0.6.97.865.rar
Update -> http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconv...ConvertToX.exe


Could be better when you update the top post so it says something like :
Full Download (please download also the updates) -> http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconv...0.6.97.865.rar
Update (NOT for full update posted here above) -> http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconv...ConvertToX.exe

or

Full Download (please download also the updates) -> http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconv...0.6.97.865.rar
Update (for v0.5.94.747) -> http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconv...ConvertToX.exe


... would be much more clear to actually get the latest version.:)

[buzzqw]

@spida_singh

i haven't such file to test, but "copy" should fuction

please try on a sample, and report back :)

@Betsy25

users MUST download the latest full pack AND always the update only the hdconverttox.exe as i say "update" (without mention a "full update")

but i agree that your second option

Full Download (please download also the updates) -> http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconv...0.6.97.865.rar
Update (for v0.5.94.747) -> http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconv...ConvertToX.exe

is more clear

but.. btw the single exe is less the 1mb...

That's right, but whenever people find out that the updated .exe file is actually an older version than the one in the full pack, they have to completely re-install the full package again.;)

For example, if you only did a minor update to the .exe alone, you could change

[buzzqw]

t's right, but whenever people find out that the updated .exe file is actually an older version than the one in the full pack, they have to completely re-install the full package again
tha'ts should NEVER happen! (and i hope never happened)

For anamorphic encoding where is the specify AR input box?

[buzzqw]

do you mean the "AR value" in main window ?

BHH

[Sharc]

I wish that higher bitrates can be selected for ac3, like 448 and 640 kbps.
When selecting x264+mkv, I suggest to change the extension under Save file ... to .mkv
Nice GUI, thanks:)

[buzzqw]

thanks Sharc

audio bitrate is editable... write 448 or 640 :)

When selecting x264+mkv, I suggest to change the extension under Save file ... to .mkv

i will look at this

BHH

[Chengbin]

do you mean the "AR value" in main window ?

BHH

In AutoMKV under the advanced settings menu. Under aspect ratio options, there are options for anamorphic encoding, and a specify AR input box (if you don't specify, the resulting video will have a messed up AR)

[buzzqw]

the options in automkv is for override AR detected

as i said the ar used is the one in main window

try yourserlf

Hi Buzz,

I had rather a lot of time on my hands yesterday and could not stop myself from re-designing the GUI layout...

The proposed GUI is a bit larger (at 542x574 pixels) than your current design (at 496x547 pixels). However it provides more room for future option additions: -

Copying the Hidden Options files into the main directory seem to have no effect. Default settings remain still the same. Do I miss something?

[buzzqw]

you don't have to copy ALL files, just the few one you need

just copy SAP or NMT (for example)

BHH

[Sharc]

Yes, I copied
x264+mkv.txt
ac3.txt
mod16.txt

Default is still Xvid+avi, and mp3 for audio.

[buzzqw]

yes, you are right

fixed in next update

BHH

[Sharc]

Encoding a DVD:
- Even though I selected Force DirectShowSource, DGindex was still used. Is this on purpose?
- When I select subtitles, the NONE should become unticked / disabled.

[Chengbin]

buzzqw, why can't we just have a "save settings" button like AutoMKV? It is much more convenient than this hidden option thing.

Wow this last update added a lot of polish to it.

I wasn't able to get this file to be analyzed by the new version.

It just paused a long while, then returned unable to calculate correct aspect ratio.

[Chengbin]

HDConvertToX will not mux the encode after encoding has finished even though there is a line of command telling it to do it.

Also, when I specify a final file size, it uses that size for the video, not for the entire file like it should of had.

When will it automatically delete the temporary files? Why can't it be in a folder named temp like in AutoMKV?

When will the file extension bug fixed? When I specify x264+mp4, and choose a save location, the ending is in .avi. (The save file should be automatic)

Why is DGindex used for a H.264 file? Why does it have to extract the video file? For some reason it says my source video is in some non standard frame rate (the source's frame rate is 23.976)

Also, why is NeroAAC settings messed up. I set the quality to 4, which I assume is equivalent to 0.40 in AutoMKV. But the resulting file is much bigger (185Kbps than 110Kbps). What quality setting should I use for a quality equivalent to 0.40 and 0.50 in AutoMKV?

In the SMD version, the deinterlace function is gone.

For some reason, I can't encode using this GUI twice. I must delete and reextract the files to be able to encode again.

Pressing the anamorphic encoding button resets the resolution, which can be annoying sometimes.

Sometimes you can't get HDConvertToX to add DGAVCIndex to the queue, and without that it seems that you can't encode files.

I really want to use this GUI, because it is almost 3x faster than AutoMKV at encoding videos with MVDegrain 3, but there are too many faults on this right now that forces me to stick with AutoMKV for a long time. AutoMKV was just so damn simple, and that's what made it fantastic. All you need is 5 seconds (literally) to start encoding a video. In HDConvertToX right now, 50 seconds isn't enough. If this doesn't change, it will really piss me off when I start encoding anime, where I can encode 10 videos a day.

[Sharc]

mod16.txt still seems to have no effect on cropping / resizing.

[SeeMoreDigital]

@SMD

i have few question (feel free to link me thread) about stream par? and container par : is this the same as "Display par" ?"Stream Level PAR" and "Container Level PAR" offer different methods of re-shaping the video image during playback.

Containers such as .MP4, .AVI, .TS and .M2TS favour placing their PAR signalling at the "Video Stream Level" (ie: within the video stream).

Containers such as .MKV and .MOV favour placing their PAR signalling at the "Container Level" (and remove all traces of PAR signalling from the video stream).

As an experiment, if you use MKVMerge to mux this elementary .h264 video stream (http://rapidshare.de/files/46402941/720x576_AVC_Sample.h264.html) into the .MKV container, the video streams 64:45 (1.4222) PAR signalling will be removed and automatically re-allocated to the .MKV container as 1024x576 pixels.

Indeed, if you use MKVExtract to de-mux the elementary .h264 video stream and then run it thru' DGAVCIndex, it will not be able to detect any SAR (aka: PAR) signalling.

;)

[Sharc]

Queue Tab:
Remove job and Remove all job clears the list only, however it does not really remove or reset the job. When one presses Add to Queue, the new job is again added to the previous one which was apparently not cleared.

[Sharc]

DVD Source:
When I load the .ifo and select the largest PGC, the movie duration, frame number etc are displayed correctly. However, audio and subs are only extracted for the 1st vob, and the program then just terminates.

When I load the first vob, the movie duration and frame number are displayed for the 1st vob only. However, audio, subs and video are extracted and encoded for the full movie (i.e. all vobs) as expected.

[buzzqw]

update to http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconverttox/HDConvertToX-SMD2.exe

new shining layout. A BIG thanks to SeeMoreDigital!
HDConvertToX if not specified a tempary folder will create a "temp" folder in its folder and create temporary files here
save file extension will look at container selected
fixed nero aac bitrate
mod16.txt, mod8.txt, mod4.txt will also apply to crop values

@flebber

please open the analyze.avs in virtualdub, there is any errors ?
hdconverttox use directshowsource, so be sure to have installed a decoder (haali with mpeg/ps enabled and ffdshow with mpeg2/dvd decoding activated)

@Chengbin

HDConvertToX will not mux the encode after encoding has finished even though there is a line of command telling it to do it.
in Utilities there is a "Make report" button. Use it

Also, when I specify a final file size, it uses that size for the video, not for the entire file like it should of had.
computing bitrate is different than automkv. a more precise bitrate will be present in future update

When will it automatically delete the temporary files? Why can't it be in a folder named temp like in AutoMKV?
use the SDM2 update

When will the file extension bug fixed? When I specify x264+mp4, and choose a save location, the ending is in .avi. (The save file should be automatic)
use the SDM2 update

Why is DGindex used for a H.264 file?
use the Make Report button

Also, why is NeroAAC settings messed up.
use the SMD2 update

In the SMD version, the deinterlace function is gone.
check the "Video Encoder" panel

For some reason, I can't encode using this GUI twice. I must delete and reextract the files to be able to encode again.
try the SMD2 update
otherwise use Make Report

Pressing the anamorphic encoding button resets the resolution, which can be annoying sometimes.
only height is changed. and is due to new AR

Sometimes you can't get HDConvertToX to add DGAVCIndex to the queue, and without that it seems that you can't encode files
use Make Report

@Sharc

use SMD2 update, now mod16 (or mod8) is used for autocrop too

about dvd/pgc
please post a make report of both job! thanks!!

Remove job and Remove all job clears the list only, however it does not really remove or reset the job. When one presses Add to Queue, the new job is again added to the previous one which was apparently not cleared.
remove job will remove only the last line of jobs, remove all job will delete all the queue.

@SMD
thanks again and again

i will look at this!

BHH

[Sharc]

@Sharc

use SMD2 update, now mod16 (or mod8) is used for autocrop too


- SMD2 update
- mod16.txt copied into the main directory
- DVD source 720x576
=> Autocrop top 74 , bottom 74
This is not mod16 compliant, nor is the cropped and resized picture 720x300 mod16 compliant.

[buzzqw]

@Sharc

EDIT: please redownload SMD2 (autocrop mod16 is fixed for dvd source too)

thanks

BHH

[Sharc]

mod16 is fine now. Thanks.

Queue:
Pressing Remove all job only clears the text in the joblist, it does not really purge the job. When I press Add to Queue afterwards, the old job re-appears again in the list, plus the new job is added to the previous job which should have been purged.

Edit:
Hmm, I guess I have to press Save Queue after Remove job or Remove all job to purge the history.

[buzzqw]

Sharc, please redownload SMD2 (for queue)

but.. truly, i am unable to replicate

BHH

[Sharc]

It's the same, but now I noticed that it is only the subtitles command lines which are not purged and always get replicated.

[buzzqw]

@Sharc

last one, please again with SMD2

thanks!

BHH

[Sharc]

OK, this problem is solved!

Hi Buzz,

I've just noticed something which will need to be rectified before we can proceed with generating cropped and resized encodes containing anamorphic signalling.

In the image below, the sources "Movie AR" is 2.3704, which is correct: -

http://i41.tinypic.com/rh2834.png

However, after selecting the GUI's "Anamorphic" option, the sources "Movie AR" changes to 1.6667, which is incorrect (it should be the same as above): -

After "Analysing" the source and working out the cropping values, you should have most of the information you need to calculate the PAR/SAR value.

The next step is to follow ;)

ok, done http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconverttox/HDConvertToX-SMD4.exe

i have also added Stream par and container par (but don't bet a cent on correct value)

Nice one...

Next step...... This MPEG-2 source (http://rapidshare.de/files/46416694/Lawr_of_Arabia.mpg.html) is more difficult to work out because it's surrounded by black mattes :eek:

Although the "auto cropping" is functioning very well. The anamorphic "auto resizing" function is a bit off.

According to the auto cropping function, there's a total of 112 pixels (58+54) to be cropped off the height and 16 pixels (10+6) to be cropped off the width: -

This means the "Resizing/Resolution" should be 704x464 (not 720x480). Which just happens to conform to Mod-16.

To be continued....

but if you click anamorph, you can move the slider to 704 AND height will be automatically 464

i set the starting resolution to full width (not the cropped one)

should i start with the width already cropped ?

EDIT: like this http://www.64k.it/andres/data/hdconverttox/HDConvertToX-SMD5.exe ??

Does anybody have blu-ray conversion working with AnyDVD and HDC? When I analyze my .m2ts file, HDC crashes.

[buzzqw]

make sure that you have all required decoder

HDC use directshowsource for analysis so you need latest ffdshow tryout, latest haali media splitter

you can also open the analysis.avs in virtualdub, and check the error
