..

So it's working for me and Quiet_man, but not you.. what's different..

Anyways, I'll look more deeply into this perhaps on the weekend.

I don't know if it have been said, but anyway.

I tried Anri-Chan 2, very awesome software, fuckin well done, respect, peace, (insert every words of gratitude here).

But, does the idea of importing .avs as been discussed, cause when people do run, mostly pc gamers, we want to append it in one file.
And getting through the trimming and stuff while anri-chan is opened sort of sucks, so would it be possible to instead of asking for which video you want to process, adding a "you want to add a aviscript or a video", or something similar or you can still put the name of the avs instead of the video?

Thanks and its an awesome software.

yeah, afaik you should be able to just type the path to the .avs when it asks for a path to a video. let me know how it goes.

Alright I'll test this out at home and feedback.

- Determine field order by using splitscreen and asking the user.
- Partial logging.

Uses AssumeTFF() and AssumeBFF().

Please test.

O Zlda?

I believe my DVD recorder is recording with a slight audio desync. It is fully arithmatic and measurable... I.E. The sound will be synced at frame 1, it will be .05 seconds behind the video at frame 1000, it will be .1 seconds behind the video at frame 2000... something like that. I've ripped my recordings with multiple programs and found the same thing happening. I am about to test in said DVD recorder if playback in the player itself suffers this way... if so is there any way I can adjust this using anri (assuming I know the constant by which the sound speed would need to be multiplied to sync), or will I have to do things one at a time?

Sorry to punctuate what is otherwise an incredibly over my head thread with a question.

It's possible, but hackish. When the quality selection appears in a-c, the avs files are ready to go. At that point you can edit the file(s) to suit before starting the encode, using http://speeddemosarchive.com/kb/index.php/AviSynth#Progressive_audio_desync. The example can go anywhere after loading the movie.

- Multiple avi load.

I think a new version is due. Any features we still need to add? Have you guys settled on the 2d/3d thing?

let's just keep it as is (2d/3d). unfortunately i don't see myself having much time to test until may. you have my test dvd right? with the first chapter toejam & earl 2. i just went through and encoded each chapter with appropriate settings and examined all the output.

I see. Well, I think in the end the best way to test this is through public release.

Perhaps I can handle anri-chan releases for the time being?

No, I don't have that test DVD.

http://nate.quandra.org/anri-chan_test_dvd_20070701.cdr (should be iso format; can use daemontools to virtually mount)

suggest at least minimal testing before release. can mark it 3b1 or whatever and keep 2 available at the same time too. i packaged using winrar - maximum compression, rar, self-extracting archive. can use an existing installer as a template.

Got it, thanks.

Question for you nate: the nmf files you make when using mvbob, how large are they? How big of a filesize could you expect per hour?

have to use lagarith because xvid nukes x264 (on final encode). looking at one right now (ace combat 04; d1 f1 3d) it's ~81 megabaud, plus almost 2 megabaud for the audio. almost 73 gigs for two hours i guess.

2008-02-03 05:18:46 pm

If you're going in that direction, it'd be best to make it optional.

ballofsnow

2008-02-03 05:21:33 pm

wow, that's huge.

Definitely make that optional..

nate

2008-02-03 07:24:15 pm

yeah, now you see why i haven't implemented it yet.

shame too since i guess most people have at least dual core processors now, yet sumi-chan (virtual multithreading) requires nmf.

You can check for NTFS system with the CHKNTFS command, and you can get the amount of free space on the drive using DIR and some string manipulation. And making all this optional just makes sense.

Would sumi-chan fit easily into anri-chan? I figure we might as well go all the way if we plan to implement this. Though we'd need a way to detect dual core..

%NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS%

sumi-chan is just a little bash script:

http://nate.quandra.org/sumichan

looks like you also need ls, expr, sed, cp and echo. all are in the gnu binutils doze port iirc.

can run with bash.exe. automatically drops in new _hq and _iq .avs so after the nmf stage (.bats are automatically created) can immediately start final encode stage. ss or segmented, doesn't matter.

edit: nmf.bat is just this:

Code:

"C:\program files\anrichan\VirtualDub-1.7.6\vdub.exe" /c /i "P:\bat\nmf.vcf" /p "%1.avs" "%1.avi" /r /x

nmf.vcf is a vdub profile with audio default (direct stream copy) and video default except for video codec which is lagarith multithreading yv12.

Is it supposed to start as many vdub instances as there are cores and encode the nmf? How do you make sure that each goes onto their individual core?

yes (actually started from the bats sumi-chan generates but the distinction is academic). i think if you wait a few seconds after starting each bat like i do there will be no problem. but even without that i strongly suspect what will happen is the process will be moved automatically.

Alrighty.

I will probably write some new code in batch language based on the sumi-chan code. And instead of creating new bat files, it'll just send off the avs files to vdub instances.

if you want ... but if i were you i would not write anything else in batch language when there's that < 1 meg bash.exe out there. then again i guess you probably don't have the insane amount of experience i do with bash (know it like the back of my hand) so that's probably affecting your decision.
