New XviD DirectShow encoder filter from Tim Jansen

[ChristianHJW]

Hi,

this has been sleeping on my HDD for more than 4 weeks now

http://christian.matroska.org/downloads/xvid_dshow_enc10RC2.exe

Nibor, the 'official matroska installer maker' :) had no time to make an installer for it, thats why it gets released so late :( .... fortunately Bill Baroud came to our help today, it took him only 2 hours to make this nice installer for us :) !

It was compiled against the CVS version of RC2 IIRC, Tim sent it to me 17th January, and it was done one day before, so the XviD experts amongst you can tell better what encoder version was used exactly ....

Have fun ...

i protest !

you don't need 2 hour to write a NSIS script :o
it took me 5 minutes ;)

nice but little too late i guess :(

suxendrol also already has a working 1.0 dshow encoder filter and will commit it after xvid 1.0 final is out to the cvs

I sent him this version right after i had it, when i heard he is working on one. If he insists to make his own filter, what can you do :) ...

btw. since shitowax mentioned here:
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6968

that the 3ivxguys are working on a DSEncoderTool, does anyone know if someone of the xvid ds devs spoke with them?
Would be nice to use xvid inside their app. ;)

maybe someone can set up some nice (opensource?) dshow encoder gui app? maybe also allowing to choose the container, via the ogm, mkv and 3ivx mp4 muxer filter?
as encoder we could use xvid, 3ivx and nero digital, for audio a lame, vorbis and aac dshow encoder exist already

[shitowax]

Sounds like you want a new graphedit =)

Could somebody test it with his preferred DShow based capturing app ? I dont have a capture card, but i really wondered how q=1 would look for a high-bitrate lossy capturing :) .....

Any news about XviD DirectShow encoder?
Or maybe about DirectShow encoding tools?

GraphEdit ( go to "Download" on doom9.org, then click on "show all filters" to get a download link ) can be used for encoding using DirectShow.



A quick and dirty guide to GraphEdit:
- press CTRL+F
- open the category "DirectShow Filters"
- place all filters you need
- connect the filters
- pres the "Play" or click on "Graph -> Play" in the menu



Filters you need and how to connect them:

File Source (async.) -> Splitter -> Decoder(s) -> Encoder(s) -> Muxer -> File Writer

Usually you have multiple Decoders/Encoders ( as every stream ( video/audio ) needs it's own Decoder and Encoder ) and all Encoders connect to the same Muxer ( that's the function of a muxer: take multiple streams and write it to one single stream/file :) ).

To connect two filters you have to left-click-and-hold on an output pin ( those little boxes on the right side of a filter ), move to the input pin to which you want to connect and then release the mouse button.

Alternativly to placing all filters manually you may let GraphEdit do the work for you up to the Decoder-part of the chain. Press CTRL+R and then select your source file. GraphEdit will build a graph for playback. Just delete everything after the decoder filter(s).

Note: you need a special filter which uses a specific text file if you want encode directly from .vob to .avi/.mkv/.ogm/whatever. I don't the name of the filter anymore. I forgot it as it's been a while since I used GraphEdit for encoding from .vob to anything the last time.

Thanks, but I know how GraphEdit works.
I was wondering is there any news.
