ohoh, intersting findings:

I checked again these 2 big cd1/cd2 files, this cd1 file, contains the whole movie with sound, and till end of the feature, it continues with a no-sound 1st part of the feature, then the cd2 file, contains again the whole movie with sound, and till end of the feature, it continue the latter part of the movie again, but no sound.

looks like cd1= movie + 1/2 movie,
cd2=movie+ 2/2 movie....:eek:

[dosdan]

I used Custom size of "1400mb" option below rather than the 2cd option, hoping it will save some space and when I do the split, I can manually control the sub's time...well, this morning I still saw 3 files, 1 1.36gb avi 1st came out, then 2 1.83gb files each, named cd1, cd2, I browsed these 2 files, found them still the whole movie, and sounds like latter part of these two files having no sound...



The 1.83 GB bug is actually a "feature"

problem should be solved by:
=============================
Just check "Include selection and edit list" when "Save processing settings". Avery Lee added this checkbox since VirtualDub 1.5.5.
============================

Tick this option to fix it or D/L 0.68 which already has it ticked.

[lilian2k3]

thanks man, I am dling 0.68 now...

but wonder why still it has 2 cd files after I got the whole movie? I chosed 1400mb, thought it will generate only one 1 file...

[mikeathome]

Short one:

What if I select a Minimum Width (say 704) in Advanced Seetings dialog and leave Audio to Auto. Will AGK choose automatically between AC3 and MP3 to ensure good quality based on the analysis ?

I am not to lazy to test, will do tonight, just don't have the project here on this computer.

Btw. is there a reason why the max. file size is limited to 3000 MB (apart from the unlimited switch with no settings influence). I am currently dealing with Lotr 2 (3:45h joined parts) which gives me hard time obtaining good Video quality while keeping AC3 5.1. A max. settings of 4480 MB(DVD-R Size) would be preferable.

I just had a quick question, I'm not sure if anyone has asked it before. Would it be possible to have an option to encode only the movie section and cut out the credits? I personally never encode the credits so that I can have a higher bitrate for the movie itself. I'm not sure if others do the same and how hard it would be to detect when the credits start but it's just a suggestion. Thanks for a great program!

This end-credit point has been raised a few times now. How about using dvd2avi to specify the start and end point of the required encode.

I know you are going to go on about the 'newbies' but hear me out. You can leave things as they are so newbies can just use the program as usual.

Users that want to cut off trailers/credits do this-> Right click on the task bar icon for dvd2avi, select restore. Hit esc. This stops the indexing.

Hit F5 to check the movie. Hit esc again. Move the slider to the endpoint of the film (before the credits) and click ']'. Hit F4 ( save as ) and over write the file called <film_name>.d2v.

So we drop the credits using dvd2avi as an edit console. No 'credit detection' filter required.

shoot me down

I presume they could be detected as a high bitrate jump at the end of the movie.

I think we are getting dangerously close to asking for too much here. If I'm not misunderstanding len0x, his intention with this fabolous program is to provide a "one-click" solution to MPEG-4 encoding, just as DVD2One/DVDShrink is doing for DVD->DVDR backups.

There is no way to provide a simple, easy-to-use tool, with "unlimited" functionality. I too would love to see some of GK:s features such as choice of Deinterlace method, noise filter, external subtitles and a job-queue, but then why don't I just go ahead and use GK instead? It's providing all those features.

Perhaps AutoGK is a little bit too simple and GK a little bit too complex?

Anyway, len0x is giving us access to one of the most "fun-to-use" apps around. Let's cut him some slack and implement what he think gives most value to AutoGK.

Rock on!

upgraded from 0.65 which works well. attempting to encode a movie. dvd2avi runs ok. program starts the 'analyzing source' section and vdub fall over.

see screen dump HERE (www.perfectmotion.co.uk\crash.jpg)

I've probably got the wrong version of divx installed or something but i am attempting to perform a xvid encode. Previous version have all worked ok.

len0x,

I do not know what happened, but somehow my account here got tricked off, and I no longer had priviledges to post on the board. I got tired of waiting for a response from the admins on this forum and just made a new account. Anyways, I still have a few hundred gigs of unused bandwidth, so if you want me to setup an account for you on one of them let me know.

if size is 1400Mb or 2100Mb then movie is always split. chnage it to 1401 for instance to avoid splitting.

Ok this is odd. I compressed Pirates Of The Caribbean twice, using the same settings each time, except a larger file size. The first time I encoded it at 650 MB, the second time at 950 MB. What I don't understand is why the audio would be much much quieter with the larger rip. I used the same audio track and there aren't any other options to mess with the audio with. Granted I am using the (now) obsolete .48 but so far I have been happy with it and why screw with a good thing? Would Windows' volume control settings have any effect on the volume of the audio that gets compressed? TIA

BTW Thanks sooooo much for all your hard work on this project, Len0x. I LOVE this program!

Hit F5 to check the movie. Hit esc again. Move the slider to the endpoint of the film (before the credits) and click ']'. Hit F4 ( save as ) and over write the file called <film_name>.d2v.


that's excellent solution :)

answer is simple: for 700Mb or smaller rips MP3 audio used which is made from AC3 with "normalize" option. for large rips original AC3 audio is used. You can boost AC3 volume by installing AC3filter and boosting levels there...

Hi Lenox, yesterday I've tried AutoGK 0.68 with the movie "Far from heaven", italian version. I've used DivX 5.1.1 Pro, MP3 CBR@112 and I've fit it in 1 cd (700 Megs), 'cause the CT was really good (more than 75%@608*320). Anyway, the result is not very good, even if there are no high motion scenes, the film is very bright and colorful, and the resolution is obviously too high, so there are too many artifacts.
I know it's not a direct AutoGK fault, but I want you to know.

This is my log:

Oh, I forget it: it's a little oversized (735.414.712 byte = 701 Megabyte)

Bye, Yotsuya.

[guspasho]

Thanks again! I'm glad the solution is so simple!

[idanm19]

Hello !

would you consider include an option in AutoGK (maybe in advance tab) to choose between 'burned in' subtitles and 'external' subtitles (.idx, .sub(RARed)) which may be also auto-splitted.

Thanks!

I've done that movie myself not so long ago with divx 5.1.1 as well.
it was 2CDs, 6ch AC3 track, 704*xxx (bitrate above 1500). I didn't feel like it was a perfect job either. That was one of 5-6 divx 5.1.1 rips I've done and all of them were not quite satisfying to me. I felt like 5.0.5 did better job. After that I switched to XviD :)

About the movie itself - it is quite difficult for divx 5.1.1 since it has that blurry glow which you can find in most old movies (I do lots of them that's why 5.1.1 is not ideal for me). Such source causes major problems for divx...

I've been thinking about it for a while - but I have a problem: care to tell me if there is freeware rar software ? :)

Didn't knew that, thank you! I think I'll switch to Xvid too, it's about time. Of course I will not try divx 5.05 with AutoGK, with my usual test vob CT was even more optimistic, probably it would have choosen an even higher resolution.

Bye, Yotsuya.

@len0x

When i choose Input directory I got:
"Access violation at address 00404446 in module 'GkItFast4U.exe'. Read of address FFFFFFF9."
I searched this thread because I remembered I saw something similar posted...
I found out that it was a problem since 0.45beta and its because you restricted reading up to 16 of subs and audio languages.
I checked and I found out that there are 24 subtitle files and 6 audio on the DVD. In fact this is the second DVD I found with such a large number of subs (I live in Greece and most DVDs distributed here are also distributed in the Balcans so they have added subtitles for many languages), which all of them are real. So could you maybe increase the limit to something like 32?
If I may ask what is the purpose of that limitation?

[r6d2]

@len0x,

I noticed you are using joint stereo when converting to MP3. Not sure in this case, but in the audio forums it's sort of a big no-no to use joint stereo. Do you have new info on the matter?

@Len0x:

I started this morning a (test) rip for DivX (movie = Unbreakable, again...) and I get this error:
http://members.lycos.nl/pwpbaronie/doom9/auto_gk_crash.jpg

I also tryed XviD and get the same error. I'm using 0.68 BETA and my you can view my system specs below.
Hope you find the solution,

>not at the moment...Yupp, found that this morning :-)
Btw. is there a reason why the max. file size is limited to 3000 MB (apart from the unlimited switch with no settings influence).

>hm... I have no idea why :) just changed to 10000Mb...Can I DL this version somewhere. Doing heavy tests with LOTR-SE ;-) want to fit that exactly on a DVD-R.

thx mike

isn't it because of the -abr 'switch' ???... if -alt preset(s) are used then it would be 'stereo' but that would mean larger file size for audio as well...

as we're on the subject:

for 96kbits audio - would it be possible to implement 'resample 48' -> change from -abr 96 to –alt preset 96 – resample 48 ?? that would be nice

and one question though: do you use the ‚chroma optimizer‘ as a default setting?? If not I guess it could be set to default, as speed vs. quality isn’t affected... but quality would profit from it (in my opinion) and it’s still watchable on standalones

cheers Sill

I also tryed XviD and get the same error. I'm using 0.68 BETA and my you can view my system specs below.
Hope you find the solution,

I'm getting exactly the same problem. Only started with 0.68 and I only attempt xvid encodes.

I am running into an Avisynth error trying to use AutoGk 0.5 for the fist time.

Here is the error:

Avisynth open failure:
Crop: You cannot use crop to enlarge or 'shift' a clip.
(T:\Network_drive\misc\temp\tmp\_.avs, line 13)

Here is my avs script:

LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\AutoGK\filters\mpeg2dec3dg.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\AutoGK\filters\decomb.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\AutoGK\filters\chr.dll")

c = SelectRangeEvery(160,16)
global clip = c
c = FrameEvaluate(c,"write(file,string(IsCombed(threshold=30))+sep+string(IsMoving()),append=true)")

This is quite tough. I'm afraid even if I get permission from Roshal then I still need much more freedom for AutoGK package...

How about I only support external subs if rar.exe is in the path?

What's the original resolution of the movie on DVD ?

that would be just fine... as it already is in r4r

[len0x]

I removed new VDubMod from it. But you have to reinstall version 0.5 and then new update to get everything working again. Lets hope all the problems will be gone.

If I may ask what is the purpose of that limitation?

I don't see real need in that. sub indexes are usually start with 0x2x and therefor I only supported those ones. if they continue with 0x3x it's becoming tricky...

Am using latest beta 0.68b. But I its the same with all versions up till 0.5

So is there a workaround?
What can anyone with such a DVD do? (Besides using Gordian Knot :))

if you post your stream info file I'll try to fix that (even if I don't support more than 16 subs, then I obviously don't want it to crash...)

Wait until config file will be implemented, then you will able to specify custom lame parameters

No. I don't use it - is there a real benefit from it? I tried and couldn't see any difference.

AutoGK displays video info as:

Video info: NTSC - 352x480 - 16:9 Anamorphic - 29.997fps - 2:38:40.467

The original is 704x480.

Wait a minute - version 0.68 can't produce that error: GkItFast4U.exe should not be present anymore. Problem was indeed at some point in the past, but crash should not occur with current version.

[len0x]

Crop & shift avisynth error should be gone...

[btothec2]

I do not know if this is what you are looking for, but there are a ton of freeware rar, and unrarring programs here
http://www.webattack.com/Freeware/downloader/fwzip.shtml

Look Here len0x!

7-Zip is a file archiver with a high compression ratio. The program supports 7z, ZIP, RAR, CAB, GZIP, BZIP2, and TAR formats. Compression ratio in the new 7z format is 30-50% better than ratio in ZIP format. It also compresses to ZIP 2-10% better than PKZip and WinZip. It has an additional powerful command line version and FAR Manager support.
http://www.7-zip.org/

[len0x]

rar is the only format supported by vobsub. so I need freeware compression (all of the them only decompress rar) software which has command line version. I don't think it exists since rar is propriatory format...

P.S. checking 7-zip now

the only file you'll need is rar.exe (or winrar.exe) to run it from command line, maybe you can get his premission to distribute it in autogk pakage if you'll add a link to the site or add the license or something.. and if not, you may add an option to set the rar.exe/winrar.exe location, default should be:
"C:\Program Files\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe"
and if not found then it won't be compressed... it will work this way as well ;0)

note: rar.exe / winrar.exe are the same, but winrar is with windows gui so you might prefer rar.exe if you want to save up some space from the package.

usage: rar/winrar a -m5 file.rar file1 file2 ...

just a quote concerning CM (from a nice tut. within the xvid FAQ)


Then there is chroma motion. It is a speed/quality option. Use chroma (color) information to assist with motion detection - usual MPEG-1/2/4 encoding just uses luminance information for searching the motion. It is a sort of motion search precision 7. Chroma motion will slow down encoding by 10% (from Sill: I don't see this difference), but it gives you higher quality and it is pretty effective against blocks. It is highly recommended (from Sill: measure for yourself if it its highly recommended)to use chroma motion for more effective motion detection!

[len0x]

Can those having problems (crashes) of vdubmod during version 0.66-68 test the following and report back, please:

- if current version with old VDubMod (from 0.5 installer) is working ok
- if latest CVS version of VDubMod ( http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=65889&release_id=177123 ) is working ok as well.

thanks.

Yes it actually says:
Access violation at address 00404446 in module 'AutoGK.exe'. Read of address FFFFFFF9.
I was just to lazy to write it so I copied the old post.
SORRY :o
I tried every version back to 0.5 and its the same...
I 'll post the stream info as soon as I can (not at home now)...

ok, good. Coz I tried recreating the problem myself with more than 16 subs streams and couldn't get any errors. There must be something else about that file...
