I have an avi with three episodes but only the first one has subtitles.I ripped the main movie vobs and encoded them with GordianKnotItFast4U.I could not split the vobs because they were all of the main movie.The three episodes are not separate you must understand this.There is no reason for doing three separate encodes.Remember the animatrix.That's how this is too.However in the avi are multiplexed only the subtitles of the first episode.Do you understand?

Maybe you can do me a favor. Open the finished .avi movie in VDubMod and scroll to one of those scenes with movement that "flutters"
Well, I tried to do that but VirtualDubMod but get this error:
VirtualDub has detected an improper VBR audio encoding in the source avi file (audio stream 1. The current preference is to rewrite the audio header with standard CBR values during processing for better compatability....<there was more, but I got tired of typing>
But it gets more interesting...
I can get past that by allowing it to rewrite headers, and the avi will play - although it looks very bad compared to using any standalone player software. The audio seems to slowly go out of sync with the video too. But no "fluttering". Frame by frame looks normal!
Playing the same avi through, say, zPlayer or WMP and we get the fluttering again. I slowed it down as much as possible. Here's what I see...
Only items moving in the frame show any fluttering. Imagine a man picking up a gun off of a table. His arm would jerk back and forth as it moved - It's as though half the video is a few frames off...and it's constantly trying to correct itself.
Is it bad audio or bad video???

@Lenox
is there a way that you could possible identify the subtitles a little better in the drop down list box? for example:
stream information.txt identifies the subtitles from Dances with Wolves as such:
0x20 - Subtitle - English / Normal Captions / LBA: 2684 / PTS: 00:00:06.953 / Delay: 6673ms
0x21 - Subtitle - Français / Normal Captions / LBA: 2689 / PTS: 00:00:06.953 / Delay: 6673ms
0x22 - Subtitle - Español / Normal Captions / LBA: 2691 / PTS: 00:00:06.953 / Delay: 6673ms
0x23 - Subtitle - English / Forced / LBA: 140805 / PTS: 00:05:27.607 / Delay: 327327ms
0x24 - Subtitle - English / Normal Captions / LBA: 2693 / PTS: 00:00:06.953 / Delay: 6673ms
0x25 - Subtitle - Français / Normal Captions / LBA: 2695 / PTS: 00:00:06.953 / Delay: 6673ms
0x26 - Subtitle - Español / Normal Captions / LBA: 2697 / PTS: 00:00:06.953 / Delay: 6673ms
0x27 - Subtitle - English / Forced / LBA: 140813 / PTS: 00:05:27.607 / Delay: 327327ms
the drop down list only gives this much information:
English
Francais
Espanol
English...etc...etc
Is it possible to have them identified more like the Stream Information.txt file? maybe "0x23-English/Forced"? it would be easier to determine which were forced and which were normal captions.
thanks!

Jagergeek-
Thanks for answering.
VirtualDub has detected an improper VBR audio.
I mentioned ignoring the message on the screen about B-Frames, and forgot to mention the one about VBR audio. Sorry. Next time, just hit "No" and ignore it also.
and the avi will play
I didn't mean for you to play it, but to advance frame by frame. You can use either the double right arrow at the bottom of VDubMod, or the right arrow on your keyboard. But you said that the video seems fine. So there's nothing wrong with either the video or the audio (I think). It's a decoder or playback/player problem, and I think it's the decoder, something toliman also mentioned in his reply.
So, you can do me another favor. Open one of the movies in ZoomPlayer. Right click the video screen and highlight Filter Properties and see what's decoding the video. I think it's ffdshow. Either that or Koepi's Decoder. If you're not sure, then list everything there. That can be fixed, but there are lots of things that may be causing the problem, and I think I have an easier way. Please get Nic's XviD Decoder (http://nic.dnsalias.com/XviD-Dec.exe), double click and install it. Play a movie and right click the video screen again and highlight Filter Properties. Now it should say XviD MPEG-4 Video Decoder. With any luck, it'll play OK now. I hope. :)

after 5 days of waiting for my account to be registered, i just wanted to say : THANK YOU! :D
great tool, already messed around with GK before, but it took me some hours/days to get the quality and size that i *really* wanted :)
the 0.22-version was the first one i tested, and it already worked great... no problems with any of the 8 rips i've done so far (tried almost everything : 1cd/mp3, 2cd/mp3, 2cd/ac3, etc.)... only thing i haven't used yet are subtitles, maybe next time :)
*love* this tool :cool:

@len0x: maxbe you should check the gui once again. i used it unter win2k_sp2 an after aborting the ripping process, audio was set back to standart, what means, apart from which audio track you've selected it went back to the First stream, any other option such as Suptitles, input/output and file size stayed as set.

now I do, after you mentioned animatrix :)
I'm not sure what's causing it, but you can mail me *.idx file created by vobsub so I can have a look...
You can also check it by yourself to see if timestamps for second and third eps are present there. If not you can try creating idx file manually with vobsub or subrip and see if you ever manage to get them into idx file. If not, then there is pretty much nothing we can do here, but you could report that in subtitle forum...

Many small fixes and updates. One major thing was change in the algorythm of telecine/interlace detection, so that FILM source will not be detected as interlaced even if there are quate a few pure interlaced fragments (or just source looks like interlaced). Moreover HYBRID sources are detected now as well and special ITVC commands are applied. I don't have any hybrid DVDs so some testing from those who have would be greatly appreciated.
I hope this will be on of the last alpha releases. Beta will come very soon.

this line is faulty: it doesn't have language field in it. What sort of DVD is that ? The workaround is to put say "/ English /" between "AC3" and "2ch" - it'll work then.
I wonder how widespread is this type of DVD - what should I display if I wanted to show them - Track 1, Track 2 etc.? It's really hacky this way and ideally I should support only proper mastered DVDs...

Adding the language field fixed it. It's an adult DVD. I suppose the quality control standards are fairly low for them.

@Lenox
Thank you for the addition of better identifed subtitles...very helpful. also, the subtitles work perfetly for me and are in perfect sync, something I was rarely able to do in GK!
Now, on to the next issue. Dances with Wolves Special Edition, Side A has a 7 minute long "flip disc to continue movie" sequence at the end. this is easily removed in GK by using the brackets...[ ] in dvd2avi. the question is, would it be feasible to have an option under advanced options to have dvd2avi open normally so that end sequence could be bracketed out? this would also be helpful in doing multi-episode dvd's. once again, thank you for you hard work on this great program, it is truly appreciated!

I believe this is better done with DVDDecrypter - you just diselect that cell (chapter) and rip without it (I bet it must be separate cell). The same goes for multi-ep DVDs.

@len0x,
I don't know this has been told before.If the DVDs are not authored with correct aspect ratio,for eg,if a 4:3 movie was re-authored in 16:9 format(i don't know how to do it,but in some asian region this kind is obtained in plenty)then will GKIF4U can identify the correct one?or is there a possibility to do some thing in this matter?
len0x
16th November 2003, 13:44
I'm not sure what you mean by "re-authored".
4:3 or 16:9 is a bit misleading and probably I should remove that. The meaning is very simple though - it's not AR it's just an indication of whether source is anamorphic or not. So in fact it can be seen as 4:3 on dvd info, but be letterboxed widescreen video.
So all that GKIF4U does is crop everything and use anamorphic info to stretch video properly. Does this answer your question ?
MinosK
16th November 2003, 14:04
Just a suggestion... Why don't you have an "auto" choice in Predefined Size list box?? The program can choose the size (1CD or 2CD e.t.c) according to the Compressibility Test...
zerocoolnl
16th November 2003, 14:08
Heey,
Sometimes I have movies I don't want in superior quality. So I don't want them on 2 cd's even if 2 cd's is better then 1 cd.
Zerocool
Tuning
16th November 2003, 14:14
what I was trying to present is,if the original file is 4:3(say) and another file created from the same source with skewed frame size(i.e not cropping,but entire frame is skewed and shown as 16:9 letterboxed movie-implies width will be same but height is reduced)and plays as skewed in any media player asif its originally a 16:9 movie.
So when I create d2v project of second file,the information shown by DVD2AVI will be 16:9 movie and GK or GKfast takes it as 16:9,while originally the file being 4:3 as I mentioned above.So for proper encoding I have to change the input pixel aspect ratio in GK to 4:3 mode .This is also applicable to GKfast,but here I cannot change the input aspect ratio.
Hope this makes something to understand....:(

Yes... OK.. So you will select 1 CD... But if someone wants a good quality in just 1CD,or 2CD's, he could select "auto".....
I believe that this could be really really useful!
len0x
16th November 2003, 15:15
First, what you trying to describe with your example is anamorphic transfer, right? But it works exactly the opposite of what you said. You have 4:3 original, then you either reduce width by a factor of 1.33 or increase the height by a factor of 1.33 So that when playing in DVD player with anamorphic flag set it will stretch width by 33% and restore original DAR.
Bur in your case with reducing height and settings anamorphic flag you force the DVD player to skew height even more and hence completely destroy the DAR...
So my point is - media players are not something we should be referring to. The behaviour of GKIF4U is the same as DVD players. So whatever hardware DVD player can play properly, my tool will able to deal with properly as well. If not then I don't think we're interested in those cases anyway. It's a DVD conversion, right?
Tuning
16th November 2003, 15:58
It's a DVD conversion
Its a DVD I bought.I think these DVDs are some altered versions to the original DVDs.These movies are found in retail stores,where I live(India).Here the only problem is what I mentioned,the quality is good and if I encode in GK as mentioned by above method the resulting rips looks like exactly done from original media.
I do understand GKIF4U takes what DVD2AVI give and process accordingly.Can I edit d2v somehow to change the aspect ratio?
Thanks.
Thanks for info len0x,and for orinary movies(with out this kinda problems)GKIF4U is great.
BTW,I don't do DVD conversion and films I mentioned are Bollywood Hindi films.

I believe someone has already mentioned the need to implement "Shut down Windows when done..." functions. I believe it's quite important function even for alfa testing. The software is great, works as expected! Thank you for it. Another thing: maybe to make some type of switchboard for choosing between Gordian Knot and GkItFast? and include GkItFast in Gordian Knot package? It's just a thought though.

16th November 2003, 16:18
hm... So, are you saying that you're not able to play those DVDs properly in DVD players, but converting them in mpeg4 is the only way to restore the picture? I wonder who's buying those things :)
About workaround: I don't use DVD2AVI to determine AR. But stream info file contains that information (4:3 or 16:9) but it won't help to change it there coz as I said GKIF4U acts as a hardware player: if 4:3 is detected then source is left as it is. If 16:9 then height is reduced by 33%. So there is no way to increase height by 33% as in your case.
*EDIT* wait a minute - you said that you're able to do that with GK by selecting 4:3 ? No way that can help you with the problem you described (at least as I understood it...) GK is not able to increase height. You have to select something like 1.33*1.33 ratio manaully to restore the vidio there (but it's it not 4:3)
Tuning
16th November 2003, 17:09
Sorry I made a terrible mistake,the condition is viceversa,i.e original is 16:9 and is streached to 4:3 and presented in 4:3.So what i do is select 16:9 mode in GK and auto crop and continue encoding.(Then all looks good)
sorry I'm absentminded.:confused:
If you think this is not a necessary condition to go on it,then i would use GK for these Particular encodes.Thanks for these great tools.indeed its worthwhile effort.

that's a typical anamorphic transfer. what you do manually in GK, GKIF4U does automatically, so you never have to worry about wrong aspect ratios :)

Thanks for implementing the shutdown when done feature, however I found an annoying little bug (version 0.37 alpha) that needs to be squashed. If "Shutdown when done" is checked and "preview" is selected instead of "start" then computer shuts down as soon as preview starts, so I guess, no preview is possible with it checked... :p
And also one small request, for implementing a jobs queue in 0.4 beta... it's the only thing missing imho. :)

Have done a couple of rips now with the software. In both cases it used softer matrix and soft resizer. Just wondering how and why it decides to use soft resizer. In all the threads I've read I've never seen a recommendation for the soft resizer. Because of that when I rip in regular Gordian Knot I've only used lanczos, sharp bicubic, and occasionally neutral bicubic.
len0x
17th November 2003, 01:16
don't worry - soft resizer for GKIF4U is actually Sharp Bicubic :)
And sharp is Lanczos. If resolution width falls below 608 for widescreen movies or 512 for 4:3 movies softer resizer is used as well as quality limit is decreased to 60% for comp test.

Jagergeek-
Good, I'm glad you got it going. Thanks for reporting back.
But I do remember seeing the date information to be from 2002.
That would explain it. Probably pre-B Frame, and it couldn't decode them properly. It seems strange, though, that the newer decoder included in the GKFast/XviD package didn't take over.
I've downloaded many "all in one" packages
But that may be the reason. If you've downloaded and installed the Nimo Codec Pack at some point, it may have been keeping the old decoder the primary one. So, one lesson is to get rid of the codec packs. There's very little that you need to install in order to play everything out there, and it's all available on this site.
Happy encoding!

Couple of questions re: hybrid detection...
1. I've been transcoding Babylon 5 DVD to Xvid using GKFast... the source is hybrid (mostly FILM), but for some episodes GKFast detects it as FILM. DVD2AVI clearly marks it as NTSC. Anything you or I can do to fix this?
2. Is there a way to programatically figure out what parametrs to use for Telecide and Decimate (vthresh, decimate's threshold)? I know each spit out some metric data, not sure if you can use that data during the analaysis phase to fine tune Telecide/Decimate.... maybe that's a question for Donald...

Ok, I need interlace.log (from tmp dir) for those samples. Can you please mail it to my email address which you can find in about window.
Btw, have you tried 0.37? Coz I changed quite a lot regarding hybrid sources there. If not, can you please retry encoding.
And don't trust DVD2AVI at all :)

If telecide is followed directly by decimate in avs script then some data already propagated to decimate and threshold=1.0 is recomended for hybrid sources.

E-mailed you an interface.log from an episode detected as FILM. I'm pretty sure it has some interlaced sequences in it (much like Star Trek: TNG). I was using .37 (which seemed to correct things with other episodes vs. .35... just not this one).
Re: Telecide/Decomb settings... yeah those are the settings recommended in the Decomb manual.... it's just that they don't seem to be ideal for these episodes... (during my experimations, I turned show=true for Decimate using the same settings you are, and got a whole bunch of sequences that weren't being decimated using the "video" rules, and vice versa) Asking you to change your hard coded settings would probably break things for other users, and having a manual overide would defeat the purpose of GKFast, so I thought maybe there might be things you could do during the analaysis phase that could fine tune Decomb...
Upon further thought, there probably isn't, as the only boolean you get from Decomb is IsCombed, right? You probably couldn't use the metrics that show=true spits out in a useful matter.
In any case, please ignore treat the first issue as an actual bug and the second as wishful thinking! :)

GordianKnotItFast4U is great !!!!
Way easier to use than GK, and in my opinion it gives good results without stress !!
I love being able to specify the file size I want for the encode and not worry to much about anything else. Have you considered rather than specifying the size, being able to specify the quality of the encode and allow the size of the encode to be derived ?
I started using GordianKnotItFast4U at 0.21, and I’ve got two DVDs, “SEVEN” and “Total Recall” that used to give “Audio Not Found Errors”, that now with the latest releases (I just checked 0.37) that now yield:
Asynith open failure:
LoadPlugin: “C:PROGRAM~1\GkItFast\filters\mpeg2dec3dg.dll” is not an Avisynth 1.0 plugin (D:\dvds\tmp\_.avs, line1)
Here is the “Total Recall_gk.log” file.

Welcome to the forum :)
You probably don't have avisynth 2.5.x installed.
Get 2.5.3 from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/avisynth2
P.S. yes, quality based mode for encoding will probably be implemented in the future.

E-mailed you an interface.log from an episode detected as FILM. I'm pretty sure it has some interlaced sequences in it (much like Star Trek: TNG). I was using .37 (which seemed to correct things with other episodes vs. .35... just not this one).
I got the log and I didn't see a single NTSC pattern in it. Pure FILM source indeed. There are obviosly a lot of FILM interlaced patterns (i.e. 2 out of 5 interlaced frames), but no real interlacing. So GKIF4U did a good job in this case I think.
Are you sure that you can see continuous interlacing patterns in that source?
