Looks awesome :D

[hoola]

WOW! I can't wait to try it out. I think it's tools like these that will bring new blood to RVX.

[Sirber]

I was supposed to release the new features in RealAnime 2.00, but I lost the core last weekend. :( And since I had to restart it, I moved over Delphi which is way better than VB for my needs. Also, the inslatter might be like 1.5MB smaller since I won't need extra DLLs/OCXs :D

Yes, this UI looks very promising. Hopefully the new rate control and inloop options (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=71022) that everyone has been asking for will also help (bring new users to RV 10) :rolleyes:

[h9903209]

wow, very clear and beautiful interface! ^O^
clever combination of all-in-one and tabbed interface!! great job!^O^

[Sirber]

Thanks for all the great comments :D Doing our best to deliver the soft next weekend.

[damrod]

great job :-))

so you add elysee version??

is this a stable release? i wonder because of the readme.txt...

[Latexxx]

Why isn't this open source? Are you afraid that somebody will make a mod like happened with RealAnime?

[damrod]

sirber is afraid of me ;-)
mdr

i think sirber can release it in gpl... but when he achieve a stable version (like v2.00)
or they can start it as a projetc on sourceforge : in this case people can help via cvs...

To me, it seems strange that a company like real, which has been on the market for more than twice as long as divx.com, wasn't able to position itself in that segment.

[damrod]

it's up to you...it's yours code :-)

[Sirber]

yep. my code :devil: ;)

[damrod]

lol ;-))




2-0 2-0 2-0 2-0....ok it's only soccer but 2-0 !!! :-))

[damrod]

just a question : do you plan to add vfw codec support (ie xvid, vp6 or divx) to your new soft -- like in surreal ui :-)

[Sirber]

dunno yet. If I add a codec it will surely be VP6. But, I really don't know yet.

[datascab]

Sirber......

Will you be including the option to have the temp file location a user setting?

Same as source would be ideal.

I would like it if its not too much trouble :)

Thanks

Data

[Sirber]

By default, temp files will be stored where destination is. I finished job manager (save / load settings). I'm attacking now the jobfile creator. I think having an alpha release this weekend is not just wind :D

Same as source would be ideal.What if the source is a DVDR or a CDR? :p

[damrod]

beurk... encoding directly from dvdr or cdr?? pfff people like to do damage to their drive...

you can add a checkbox to choose "windows tmp directory" or "same as file to encode"... that's what i do for realbatch :-)

[damrod]

btw the problem to encode audio track in realbatch/realanime commes from the tag presentation always set to audio-video but in case of audio track...it's audio-only; if not it crash...
for just video there is the tag video-only :-)

[Toll]

Hi,

Can I ask some questions?

What are " max avg SSD", "max area SSD", "max avg chro SSD", and "max area chro SSD"?

[RadicalEd]

Average and area-specific sum of squared differences for the luma and chroma, respectively. DupeDrop params that adjust the threshold for what should be dropped and what is considered motion.

[Sirber]

You can get more info in the RealVideo 9 sticky thread, under DropDupe.

[damrod]

i see you can specify AR in your gui? why? is this a parameter of encoding?

[Sirber]

Yes, see screenshots. It's only 4:3 or 16:9. Crop is auto and resize semi-auto.

[damrod]

mumm but 4/3 is ok but 16/9... and 2.35?1.89? two formats of 16/9 in dvd ... ;-)

[Sirber]

With autocroping it's ok.

[Sirber]

I'm trying to get a basic working version this afternoon (GTM-5). As soon as jobfile creator is completed, I just need to implement APi manager and I will be able to encode :D.

[edit]

Preview version will have the fellowing features:
* AVI encoding only
* RealVideo 8/9/10 with the new RC
* Expert mode only

Preview version will be missing the fellowing features:
* General UI management: make a wrong setting and expect crash :)
* AC3 support
* AVISynth filtering
* All the other stuff :D

This will be a preview, not an alpha version. Expect bugs, fat bugs and juicy bugs. No settings validation is done actually.

[DarkNite]

Expect bugs, fat bugs and juicy bugs.

Mmm... I needed a little more protein in my encoding diet.

Looking forward to seeing what you've done so far, and definitely looking forward to playing with the new rate control.

[Marcel]

The GUI looks great.

As it is closed source, may I ask (intending to potentially use the answer for my own project :cool: ) how you did the auto-cropping? Actually, I plan to open the clip via any directshow media player component and look for black borders, ignoring TV station logos.

[Sirber]

autocrop is an avisynth filter :)

[Marcel]

Warum denn in die Ferne schweifen, wenn die Ute liegt so nah...

(Sometimes the best things lie in front of your feet, and you don't see them!)

[Sirber]

What things? :confused:

[Marcel]

AviSynth filters for example...

[Sirber]

Does someone knows about that king of error? :confused:

[edit]

Got it.

TPersistant:jobfile := TString.Create;
TStrings:jobfile := TStringList.Create;This is stupid...

[Sirber]

Jobfile creator is working. With some tweaking I might be able to encode 1 file. Then, I will just need to add batch management and YS RealAnime will be "workable" :D

[edit]

Here's a preview:

http://www.webernic.com/sites/sirber/YS/YSRealAnime_Preview.exe (2.75MB)

Archive is protected against non-doom9 members:
Pass: yatoshisirber

What works:
* Job management (settings edit / save)
* Expert mode only
* RealVideo 9/10 only
* Encode file first file from first job

Expected errors:
* Crash at every error

What does not work:
* Remove files
* Everything else :D

This is a preview, so don't complain :devil:

[Latexxx]

Does it support the new Parisian features of Real Video 10?

Edit: The server just went ofline while I was downloading the file and the server can't be reached anymore.
Edit2: It works now.

[Sirber]

yeah we were moving it on the UPS :)

YS RealAnime supports all new features, except new RC tweaks.

[Latexxx]

Some thoughts:

The icon sucks
Why does this thing has 3 different settings for audio? Merge everything into one (and add some handling code if needed).

[Sirber]

About audio, In the Files source, it might have 5.1 and 2.0 (AC3) and 5.1 and 2.0 (AVI). That's why I need 3 settings, or else I will have to guess what codec to use...

[Latexxx]

You could have only one option set for audio and add some check boxes to select channel number.

Ps. Adding Vorbis audio encoding would be interesting.

[Sirber]

won't work.

If I want HE-AAC for 2.0 and cook for 5.1?

[achtungfeuer]

Pb with xvid RC2:
Can't open this file.
But it can open xvid-RC1-movies.
Pb witn my computer?

[Sirber]

might be related with XviD + DirectShow. Nothing I can do :(

[DarkNite]

XviD RC2 can be decoded by DivX's Support Generic MPEG4 decoding, which is selectable in the DivX Decoder Configuration Utility.

You could also try changing the fourcc code to DX50 if it's current fourcc is XVID.

[Sirber]

but as far as I remember, this thread is not related to XviD problems.

[achtungfeuer]

an other software (I don't remenber its name) say that it could be related to B-frame.
I don't understand. snif snif...

[Sirber]

Hum... don't use the preview. Seems it uses 100% of the CPU to do insane "waiting" :confused:

[edit]

Good, in normal uses YS RealAnime uses onlu 0-2% CPU. The 100% thing was related to this bug. (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&postid=451653#post451653)

[achtungfeuer]

I'm waiting for the next RealAnime!
Coming soon???
