InstantCopy: display upside down, Vobrator and IfoEdit errors, 'AX' drivers missing

[tlian]

After installing InstantCopy, when I view my mpg2 files generated
by TMPGENC using media player or realPlayer, I see the movie upside
down, the same mpg files play perfectly on other machine that does
not have InstantCopy install. Anybody else has the same experience?

[katjarella]

It is because of the VOB MPEG 2 video decoder (vobmpg2.ax...)

Solution :
1 : Register The AX Files. ( \InstantCD+DVD\SharedFiles\ )
2 : Change DVDs width InstantCopy.
3 : Close InstantCopy.
4 : DE-Register The AX Files.

FOR W2k / XP !!!!
Copy the InstantCopy.bat \InstantCD+DVD\SharedFiles\

@echo off
@echo Register Filters
FOR %%a IN (*.ax) DO %WINDIR%\system32\regsvr32.exe /S %%~fa
@echo .
@echo starting InstantCopy
@echo Please WAIT !!!!!!!!!!!!
start /LOW /B /WAIT ../InstantCopy/MultiCopy.exe
@echo .
@echo DeRegister Filters
FOR %%a IN (*.ax) DO %WINDIR%\system32\regsvr32.exe /S /U %%~fa
exit


And Run The InstantCopy over the InstantCopy.bat

I think this is also what breaks VOBrator, but I can't be sure. =(

[tlian]

Thanks for the info.
I tried it, but still get the same upside down video.
Do I need to reboot the pc?

[katjarella]

Do I need to reboot the pc? = NO

examined times your programs which filters for the Decoden to be loaded.

Run Process Explorer (http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/procexp.shtml) , start your Video-Prog and check which filters to be loaded (.AX).

I got the following
Elecard\mpeg2dmx.ax
InstantCD+DVD\vobmpg2.ax
Pinnacle\shared files\filter\XLDecompress.ax
Pinnacle\shared files\filter\AVI-PASS.ax
Pinnacle\shared files\filter\MJPGDecompress.ax
system3\DVOBSub.ax

and the player is Microsoft Media player

[katjarella]

mmmm the Filter InstantCD+DVD\vobmpg2.ax is still present.

change the BAT-file times above. And remove the switch /S. and test whether it 100% functioned.

[tlian]

It is working...

Thanks

[katjarella]

what do you have now for a MPEG2 decoder?

my with NVDVD (Not 100% Working whit Vobrator):
NVIDIA Audio Decoder Filter - 0.00.0000.0227 - *\nvauddec.ax
NVIDIA Video Decoder Filter - 0.00.0000.0227 - *\nvviddec.ax
CyberLink Video/SP Filter - 3.05.0000.1814 - *\clvsd.ax
DirectShow MPEG-2 Splitter - 6.05.0001.0900 - *\mpg2splt.ax

my with CyberLink:
CyberLink Audio Filter - 3.05.0000.1814 - *\claud.ax
CyberLink Video/SP Filter - 3.05.0000.1814 - *\clvsd.ax
DirectShow MPEG-2 Splitter - 6.05.0001.0900 - *\mpg2splt.ax

[tlian]

I see Ligos Mpeg Video Decoder Impgvd.ax, is it the decoder
you are asking?

[jfcarbel]

So is this working? Do we need to remove all the /S from the orginal BAT to get it working?

I assume this will fix the VOBRator issue as well.

Thanks!

[katjarella]

the .BAT functions with me.

REGSVR32 /U /S DLLNAME
/U = Unregister Server
/S = Silent; display no message boxes

WITHOUT /S is only for testing whether regsvr the call functions !

the Vobrator needs a stable MPEG2 decoder. Of instcopy does not function.

[valnar]

Can any of you wonderful programmers create this into a Windows app that does this for us instead of executing a batch file which drops (although momentarily) to a command prompt?

Pretty please? ;)

[katjarella]

I have times various tested...
And one needs to (de)register only the vobmpg2.ax. If one always de-registers the vobmpg2.ax, the preview does not function. But everything else.

I do not need the preview. :)

OR

@echo off
@echo Register Filter (vobmpg2.ax)
%WINDIR%\system32\regsvr32.exe /S vobmpg2.ax
@echo .
@echo starting InstantCopy
@echo Please WAIT !!!!!!!!!!!!
start /LOW /B /WAIT ../InstantCopy/MultiCopy.exe
@echo .
@echo De-Register Filter (vobmpg2.ax)
%WINDIR%\system32\regsvr32.exe /S /U vobmpg2.ax
exit

[valnar]

Does this batch file also fix this problem??

[katjarella]

It is possible. Because it nearly always is because of the MPEG2-Decode-Filter.

Not all Filter working with IFOEdit, Vobrator ...

[rufusrex]

Please forgive my stupidity but what exactly do I need to do to resolve this. I installed Instantcopy and now VOBrator and IFOedit aren't working correctly. I am running W2K. How do I register / un-register a file? Do I need to create the .bat file?
Thanks

[katjarella]

What do you have for problems? Which error messages? What do you have now for a MPEG2 decoder?
examined times your programs which filters for the Decoden to be loaded.
start your Video-Prog > Run Process Explorer (http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/procexp.shtml) > View > View DLLs > mark your video program and check which filters to be loaded (.AX).

Reg the Video-Filter : regsvr32.exe videofiltername.ax
UnReg the Video-Filter : regsvr32.exe /u videofiltername.ax

various Video-Filter:
NVIDIA Video Decoder Filter - 0.00.0000.0227 - *\nvviddec.ax
CyberLink Video/SP Filter - 3.05.0000.1814 - *\clvsd.ax
MPEG2 Video Filter(InstantCD+DVD) - 1.00.0000.0016 - *\vobmpg2.ax
Ligos MPEG Video Decoder - 2.00.0000.0091 - *\lmpgvd.ax
MPEG Video and Audio Decoder (MainConcept) - 1.00.0000.0041 - *\mcdsmpeg.ax

Sometimes also the Video-Splitter make problems.
I made the best results with the filters of the PowerDVD.
understood?

[rufusrex]

Thanks katjarella, I used the second BAT file that you posted and it worked like a charm. I really appreciate it.

[HeeD]

katjarella,

Thanks for all the info. I have done similar things when installing Adobe Premiere because one of its codecs crashes WMP.

But my question is: do you know exactly how windows handles codecs? What is the hierarchy of codecs in the system (ie. how does a particular program know to use one codec over another)? How can a new program add a codec and other programs pick this new one up instead of the one it was using before? Shouldn't these other programs just use specific codecs that they were designed around?

Is this a bad design? I think it is.

[katjarella]

Do you know exactly how windows handles codecs?
I tested much, but like it exactly functioned I cannot say unfortunately.


Zoom-Player goes another way it can the filters define, which to be used to be supposed.

Is this a bad design?
YES :)

Sorry, which I cannot help you. I always go the "bad" way via the (De)-Register of the filters.

:confused:

Guys,

I am suffering from upside down video being created by InstantCopy.

You have all done a fantastic job identifying the problem and coming up with a fix.

Could somebody please post a short instruction guide (step 1, step 2 etc) on how to fix this problem - for those of us who are less knowledgeable.

Thank you very much.

[htc10825]

If you use WinDVD 4.0/4.5 to open/view the mpg/dat/vob files you'll get the correct display of video - no upside-down.


If you have to use the WMP to play the files you can uninstall the IC7, later re-install it if you want to do the conversion again.
Alternative you can setup a second partition for a clean OS and use a boot manager to switch between the one with IC7 and the other without IC7. The trick with "unregister" the filter worked not very reliabel.

[Arianos]

I think the problem is fixed in the update :)

[MaistroX]

Is the .bat file avalible somewhere still so I can try to correct this problem with codecs ?

Have a MAJOR problem with IfoEdit HERE (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&postid=318363#post318363) ! :(


PLEASE HELP!
