It's in the exe. (http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/)

Hes using the default XP theme, you're using the other one.

Hi Donald,

Nice one, that GUI is a great compromise

There's no mystery to what I did. I took a screen grab of DGAVCIndex using HyperSnap (with WinXP Home) and manipulated the resulting image.

I'm not clever (or disrespectful) enough to pinch or alter source code


Cheers mate

You mean I can change my theme? Who'd have known?

Actually, it's available upon request. I usually wait for the first beta to publish it.

Thanks for the answers guys. I learned something today! It's not quite as much fun as being corrected by scharfis_brain, but it'll do.

I don't see how. It only changes dialog box locations/strings/icons.

>Then why'd you ask?

My brain fart was telling me that all this was involved:

http://virtualdub.org/blog/pivot/entry.php?id=164#body

Which is really stupid because I have the XP theme on my PC at work, loaded by our corporate staff. Hmmm, desktop properties. Who'd have thunk it?

What does that stuff Avery is talking about look like? I give anyone permission to post a totally off-topic screenshot here to show me. Maybe it would be nice for my tools.

He's talking about making the app use common controls v6 instead of v5.

I compiled dgindex with this line in mpeg2dec.cpp: #pragma comment(linker,"/manifestdependency:\"type='win32' name='Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls' version='6.0.0.0' processorArchitecture='x86' publicKeyToken='6595b64144ccf1df' language='*'\"")

Pictures:




Personally I dislike v6 and prefer the old style. Also the changes here are fairly innocuous, it's when you use combo-boxes and tabs that things start to get messed up like Avery mentioned.

Did a DGAVCIndex.exe over a .h264 file which successfully created the .dga file. Couldn't understand why my script poking the filtered video into HC failed, so created this simple script and tried to open it in Vdub
Code:
LoadPlugin("C:\SOFTWARE\DGAVCIndex\DGAVCDecode.dll")  
AVCSource("G:\DVD\NAB.Cup.Rd2.Adelaide.v.Fremantle\NAB.Cup.Rd2.Adelaide.v.Fremantle.dga", deblock=true) 
AssumeFPS(29.97) 
SetPlanarLegacyAlignment(True)
but it throws the error AVCSource: could not open one of the input files...
Top part of the .dga file:
Code:
DGAVCIndexFile6

G:\DVD\NAB.Cup.Rd2.Adelaide.v.Fremantle\NAB.Cup.Rd2.Adelaide.v.Fremantle_track1.h264
C:\SOFTWARE\DGAVCIndex\libavcodec.dll

The DGA path string has "_track1" at the end and the AVS script path string is missing it.

Thanks for the link. It's always satisfying to see that one's efforts are useful to someone.

Now that DGMPGDec 1.5.0 RC3 is out too, I am going to take a break from the Big 2 and make a new version of FDecimate() that more accurately decimates duplicates, observing a maximum allowed running AV desync tolerance. It'll be basically a one-pass MultiDecimate on steroids.

if you need some .m2ts panasonic "raw" for testing, i can upload for you.

thanks in advance for your great work!

It worked just fine for me in alpha 18. What do you mean exactly when you say "it doesn't work"?

Hi neuron2, I find that deblock=false produces sharper, more detailed images on fairly static scenes but produces more blocking in fast motion scenes. I was looking at a 1080p hd broadcast. Reading various posts around the net this appears to be what is expected, i.e., that deblocking smoothes (and therefore reduces detail) in the image, do you agree?

Why has deblock=false been made available as an option? I understand deblock=true is a mandatory part of the spec. Would you be able to provide a scenario where deblock=false may be desirable?

Mandatory inloop deblocking is only compulsory if there isn't an option to disable it. libavcodec has that option to disable it, consequently DGAVCDecode does. If I'm wrong, please correct me.

If you're finding non-deblocked passages better than when it's enabled, consider using "Trim" in AviSynth, with AVCSource("file.dga",deblock=false) or AVCSource("file.dga",deblock=true) for the relevant sections. Those are off the top of my head, and may be incorrect.
