Video Splitter / Re: Frame accuracy trim on WMV shows artifacts

« on: May 28, 2012, 09:54:21 PM »

hello snapcoyote,

The file with these parameters couldn' be partialy rencoded using Microsoft VC-1 Encoder, one of the reasons is EBDU start codes enabled.
But that's not main problem. there are other parameters that will break playback  if they wouldn't  match.

As a solution for this kind of files using this version SolveigMM Video Splitter 3.0 Beta

You can select MainConcept VC1 Encoder for Smart Trimming option using Tools->Preferences, and set encoder parameters that will fit the source video.


The keys parameter which i set:



The result file plays fine using Microsoft WM Video Decoder DMO. But using VLC Player the reencoded part is broken, I suppose that not all parameters that i set match source video.
Unfortunately, force selected  encoder active only for current session of the Video Splitter, and couldn't be set using XTL batch list.

Of course this question is not closed, because it's  hard  to work with this workaround.

Hello snapcoyote,

i saw in headers that file was made by mainconcept vc1 encoder.
Did you make this file by yourself?
if so, could you provide us  for test encoder and settings which was set to it by e-mail?

Hello snapcoyote,

could you specify more info about the problem?

full version info of the video splitter installation.
If you will upload file and xtl it will speed up resolution.
Also i need to know which version of OS do you use. + if it's XP which version of Windows Media Player is installed.

Also, how come the attribute 'accuracy' for the track element in the xtl is not documented?  Are there other attributes not documented?

Yes,  "Batch File Format" in help file need to be updated. Latest one is in SolveigMM Video Editing SDK.

Hello blagasamuel,

One of the file for join that you have provided has some troubles with time. It's 2.vob.
I've played it with vlc and noticed delay at the beginning. Analysis of the file showed that timestamp on 10-th frame is wrong.
And that's one of the reason delay on join point
Could you tell how did you get this file. Was it Splitter trimming result?
If so could you upload original with  time intervals.


PS:
http://beginwithsoftware.com/videoguides/joinvobfilestool.zip - i've tried to join by this tool 1.vob and 2.vob and got delay on the join point.
It doesn't modify GOP headers.
As a result some players (e.g. vlc) shows wrong duration it is equal to last file's duration.

it viewable but uneditable

But you wrote that you can't open it with a splitter. Opening doesn't involve editing process.

This happens on opening media file, Not editing. Is this correct?
Are you opening the file from the local hard drive not from network?

We can validate mkv file to make sure it matches matroska spec using mkv validator .

Unpack it  Drag and drop media file to validate.bat
Results of validation out.txt should be created.

If it's ok the best way to solve this is to give us this file (could you point where you did you get it ?).

Hello PistolSlap,

Could you check if this happens on other mkv files with avc that you have with smaller size ?
Also could you check if this happens using latest  SolveigMM_Video_Splitter_3_0_Beta

Hello Javier,

the first problem:

"RTSP Source" i've found a lot of,  where can i get it ?
I need to reproduce this on my end to see which mediatypes it gives on output pin. It could be that it has many mediatypes. And muxer gets the first one.
i see the file was muxed with "V_MS/VFW/FOURCC" codecId string (for complete list see matroska codec specs).
That's why i suppose mediatype was FORMAT_VideoInfo, because there is no any codecs private data.
And that's why this file is playing only in vlc because others expect this private data.

for correct muxing AVC1 video mediatype should be formatType == FORMAT_MPEG2Video with MPEG2VIDEOINFO structure with correct dwSequenceHeader - which will contain avc1 codec private data.


the second:
if in graphedit SMM_MKV_Muxer and SMM File Writer connects fine, I think the problem is in the code that connect it.
Are you sure that you connect Output pin of muxer with filewriter, because the muxer has 2 pins ?
We can assist you if the problem will be reproduced in graphedit.

Waiting for your comments.

Video Splitter / Re: Install Problems

« on: March 20, 2012, 03:56:57 PM »

Hello Mark,

It starts off by saying there's a problem copying or something with the "uninstall.exe". When I start the program it won't accept my license and comes up with lots of things not found.

The reason could be that your antivirus software blocks installation process for some reasons. Could you tell which one you use with version? we will check why.

Is there a way to totally remove all the Solveig installed stuff including codecs, registry etc?

First you should correctly install software to uninstall it correctly.
Here is instructions how to do this.
1. reboot computer.
2. disable antivirusprotection.
3. Run installation package and follow instructions. If it fails on uninstallation of previous version  - ignore it.
4. After installation finished check that there is no SolveigMM Video Splitter instances running. If so close it.
5. Run uninstall from the start menu under Solveig Multimedia -> SolveigMM Video Splitter folder

Now I've found that my HD WMV files won't load any more. It says the files are corrupted (it said this before) and asks to index them.

Could you upload some where one of such files, to reproduce the crash.  We will check that.

Although it does load some files alright. All my HD WMV files won't load any more when they used to yesterday (although it said they were corrupted). They all play alright in WMP and load in other video edit programs.

Players software are intended to play file anyway even if it is corrupted.
For correct editing Splitter accepts only valid wmv files. if files is corrupted it is not guaranties that trimming will be ok. But you can try.
