Hello michael,
Thank you for your post.

I guess you have this errod due to you don't have installed WMFruntime on your PC.

You can download that at this place:
Windows Media Format 9 Series Runtime update (5MB)
http://www.dptop.com/app/wmfdist9.exe

Or just install Windows Media Player

Video Splitter / Re: Frequently Asked Questions

« on: February 02, 2010, 08:02:52 PM »

How the Splitter operates in command line mode

Q:-> I found that the Splitter has CLI (command line interface) named SMM_BatchSplit.exe. What are examples of editing video by means of the utility?
A:-> Yes, SolveigMM Video Splitter is shipped with CLI SMM_BatchSplit.exe utility  that accept as an input an XML file with described task or batch of tasks named groups.

Here are the samples scripts to fulfill some simple editing tasks like trimming, edition out some porions and joinin some files.

#1 Initial file is windows media - input.WMV of 10 minutes length, with one video and one audio stream.
We want to to trim a portion from 4 to 7 minutes and save it as an output1.WMV


<timeline>
   <group name="C:\video\result\output1.WMV">
       <track video="1" audio="1" obey_sample_times="0">
           <clip src="C:\video\input.WMV" start="00:04:00.00"    stop="00:07:00.00"/>
       </track>
    </group>
</timeline>
 
#2 Initial file is windows media - input.WMV of 10 minutes length, with one video and one audio stream.
We want to cut out any 3 parts from input

(#[1] 1 min 30 sec - 3 min 20 sec )
(#[2] 5 min 00 sec - 6 min 00 sec )
(#[3] 8 min 10 sec - 9 min 10 sec )
nd save an output without set fragments as an output2.WMV

<timeline>
   <group name="C:\video\result\output2.WMV">
       <track video="1" audio="1" obey_sample_times="0">
           <clip src="C:\video\input.WMV" start="00:01:30.00"    stop="00:03:20.00"/>
           <clip src="C:\video\input.WMV" start="00:05:00.00"    stop="00:06:00.00"/>
           <clip src="C:\video\input.WMV" start="00:08:10.00"    stop="00:09:10.00"/>
       </track>
    </group>
</timeline> 

#3 We have a set of Windows Media files with same video/audio paramenters (for example output1.WMV output2.WMV) and want to merge them to one single file - join_output3.WMV

<timeline>
   <group name="C:\video\result\join_output3.WMV" mode="joining">
      <track  video="-1" audio="-1">
         <clip src="C:\video\result\output1.WMV"  start="00:00:00:00" stop="00:00:00:00" />
         <clip src="C:\video\result\output2.WMV"  start="00:00:00:00" stop="00:00:00:00" />
       </track>
    </group>
</timeline>

HyperCam / Re: Higher Framerate

« on: January 31, 2010, 05:23:01 PM »

Hi Nologic,

yeah you seemed to be right about settings thresolds. We will fix that.

Also may want to tweak the title bar on the Options panel...no where near as rough as the text mentioned above, but the corners should probably be rounded like the main panel...and black edging...again like the main panel.

accepted.

may want to see if you can get clear type working on the text "Select area to record" looks a little rough on an other wise very polished interface.

Not sure if I cought the idea. Could you please crear it up ?

Hi Nologic,

All the things asked can be done via HyperCam3. Just set hte grab speed and keyframes interval via video options.

Hi gwinter6,

There is no limits for AVI files being reated by HyperCam. The only possible restriction can be caused by Fat32 file system, that is 4 GB size.
What codec did you use? if the WMP fails to play the file of any length, could you send us a one minute sample to check?

SolveigMM AVI Trimmer / Re: no datatcode

« on: January 27, 2010, 04:49:22 PM »

Hello todsweeney,

Thank you for your interest to our software.
Sorry but I have not quite cought what datacode you meant.

Are your AVI files DV AVI?

If they are not DV, you can set start stop times by left time edit controls or set fragments by slider.

SolveigMM AVI Trimmer / Re: Trimmed video is a larger file size than original

« on: January 27, 2010, 04:36:19 PM »

Your program
is very quick, yet some recoding must be taking place as the total file size is larger, even after
some trimming of content.   Most of my trimming is at the beginning or end of a video.

  Is there some "trick" to not set off the recoding or is this bit necessary to put the video back
together again?

Hi Dann, i'm not pretty sure what you mean by  "some recoding must be taking place".

AVI trimmed does not decode/encode the input media data. As I menioned before the size of an output AVI can be slightly increased(or decreased) due to service AVI data, that are not involved with video / audio streams data type.

The only case when re-encoding of a few frames are used, is MPEG-2 frame accuracy editing inside Video Splitter software.

Hello Jooce,

Ok, in this case could you please make the following test.
Please download and intall the Video Splitter
http://www.solveigmm.com/?Products&id=VideoSplitter

Then load some of problem files to the Splitter and check if playback behaviour is same as in AVI Trimmer or better?
Then please go to menu->tools>Show preview filters dialog, copy the filters there and paste info to forum.

SolveigMM AVI Trimmer / Re: Preview does not work

« on: January 23, 2010, 05:13:58 PM »

Hi JOOCE,

Could you let us know if you are able to playback the file, AVI trimmer has difficulties with, by Windows Media Player?

As for codecs probably you have some codec pack installed, so try to upgrade it.

SolveigMM AVI Trimmer / Re: Trimmed video is a larger file size than original

« on: January 23, 2010, 11:27:17 AM »

Hello Dan,

Please find the answers below:

How many frames is in one of these "GOPs"?  Does it vary with format?

It depends on encoder settings. Default value can vary from video type to type and form certain codec to code.
E.g. usually MPEG-2 vide type have 12 frames per gop, so one sec vedeo consists of two gops. For AVC video GOP length can be 100 - 300 frames, etc.

How do you tell where you must start and end a clip to avoid the reformat? 

Remultiplexing is fulfilled during trim independently of GOPs position.

What is the "trial" or "demo" period for your paid programs?

It is 21 day.

Must I uninstall the avi trimmer to use the wmp plugin or video splitter?

No, you can use all of them. they can be installed to one PC with no problems.

As you can see, I really want your program to work for me, for reducing the file size by trimming
unnecessary frames and not good material.s there a way to use AVI Trimmer like this or is there
another program that I should look at? 

Well you can try some other programs as they can remultiplex AVI files som other way, and it is possible that service data will be less.

Dear dann,

Thank you for your post.
Most likely you are dealing with K-Frame accuracy editing feature.

More details can be found here -
http://www.solveigmm.com/forum/index.php?topic=2331.msg5881#msg5881

As for the size, I guess the trimmed did not cut your beginging due to K-frame positions, so it remuxed whe whole file.

Depending on the muxing approach there can be added different amount of service data to AVI.
So it is possible that whole remuxed file can vary between input and output AVIs to less or bigger side.
