Hybrid(Windows/Linux/Mac): Input -> x264/x265/Xvid/VP8/VP9

[Riki]

Ill send you a PM with a test file

[Selur]

And a small (&short) step-by-step 'guide' to reproduce it would be nice.

[Riki]

Ok nevermind, i think I remember the problem and solution from last time. Its a situation where when you downsample audio from 44,100 to 22,500 it cuts some of it off. If I leave it at 44,100 its fine. Ill make sure.

[Selur]

does anyone have a sample of:
1. a vfr mp4 file
2. the timecode file in mp4 format (belonging to 1.)
3. the timecode file in matroska v2 (belonging to 1.)
wanted to include the possibility to convert between 2. and 3. but got no sample and tc2mp4 doesn't help me.

I just don't understand the nhml format.

[CpT]

Lovin hybrid thus far man gj!

I do have a small request though. Is it possible to have the tags auto added every time? Even just the container tag would be very helpful

-To answer your question I don't have a vfr mp4 file. sry.

[Selur]

I could add an option automatically add the container-tags, assuming they are present and a container, which supports them (no raw or m2ts output), is created. Got a bunch of (real live, offline) stuff to take care of before, but shouldn't be to hard to add. (give me a few days)

[CpT]

Sounds good, I'm in no hurry m8, take your time

[Selur]

Dropped the timecode v2 conversion for mp4 since I don't want to use tc2mp4 and I can't find enough (for me understandable) infos on how to do a matroska v2 -> nhml timecode conversion, so no timecode support for .mp4 for the time being.

Hybrid ver.100406

*changed*
- on interlaced material autodeinterlacer will only select ivtc if mediainfo detected it to be telecine / a 3:2 Pulldown
- audio language tags support for m2ts output
- activate and set vui color prime, transfer and color matrix to bt709 on hardware restriction blu-ray (this will only set the flags and won't do any color space transformations that might be recommend)
- adjusted presets
- some code cleanup (hope I didn't break anything)
- added timecode input/output option (side note: output option will only work properly with mkv output since I don't know how to convert matroska timecode v2 to nhml timecode files)

*fixed*
- some audio&subtitleTags problems
- stop crash on: no info found

*added*
- 'Add container tags on job creation' (will create a tag entry if name, genre, comments or cover isn't empty)

gday selur

a quick bug for u.
in the misc tab when you go to change the paths to programs (x264 for example), the "all files" filter is set to "*.*" which, on linux, makes x264 invisible.
there is no way to enter the path manually or get rid of the "*.*" filter.

using hybrid 100406 via tightvncserver & fluxbox on an ubuntu linux 9.10 headless server

also, have noticed if i select an iso file (dvd rip) as the source it doesnt pickup the chapters, yet if i mount it first and select it as a dvd folder it does???

cheers

Will fix the program path thing for linux. (if you post what linux version you use 32/64bit I'll send you a fixed version for testing)

About the iso input: I never intended for Hybrid to support .iso files as input.
Loading an iso file shouldn't initiate all the dvd-input analyse methods and as such not get all the infos from the source. I'm surprised that this is the only problem you stumbled upon when feeding Hybrid with an .iso file.

[zygo]

im using 32bit linux

yeah, the iso worked the other day (apart from chapters) but since then ive "played" a bit with the system and now (i just checked to confirm) it only picks up the audio track
(i know it picked up the video track b4 because i was playing with par & cropping b4 i realised there was no chapters)

gday selur

test version now works for picking up linux binaries. 1 thing u might change tho is if you open up the selection window for a path/binary that has already been entered & then u "cancel" the window, the original path/binary is not retained (clears the entry)

cheers

[Selur]

Yup, that was intended since I needed it for testing and never changed the behavior, shouldn't be hard to change so will probably change it later today and release a new version tomorrow.

[Riki]

Is anyone having a problem with changing the framerate of a video? I just grabbed the latest and everything I encode goes to 30fps. Im trying to encode to 10fps.

[Selur]

Hmm,.. definitely a bug and I know where it is and I even how I created the bug it's a bit tricky to fix. Will fix it tomorrow.

[Riki]

Ahh great, I was hoping I wasnt going crazy haha.

[Selur]

Nope, broke it when I fixed a deinterlacing frame count calculation bug because I overlooked the connection to the force frame rate method.

[Selur]

Hybrid ver.100414

*fixed*
- scale output frame rate
- use * instead of *.* as filter when selecting program paths under linux
- subtitles asynch when framerate changed due to deinterlace/ivtc
- Chapter EndTime not correctly shown after dvd input load
- dts audio detected as dts-hd

*changed*
- don't set empty program path
- set he-aac signaling if neroaac + auto + quality <= 0.3

*adjusted*
- '--key-min' minimum and default value to 0 (= auto) requires x264 15f5e7ef2d0bd8196b0345dc8fb568c225b22b12 and later

*updated*
- windows 32bit package

is there a way to restart a job in the queue that has failed at the point it failed? eg. dvd source has converted audio... has converted video.... mp4box failed to mux (for reasons i havent discovered yet).

i would like to avoid running the 1st 2 stages again (many hours) and just restart at the failed muxing when i work out what went wrong.

also, is it possible to have hybrid restart, should it get killed for some reason, and it picks up the queue that existed when it got killed??

cheers
