Video Splitter / Re: XLT for batch processor

« on: August 01, 2011, 07:17:41 PM »

Trying the batch processor.

I am following the examples in http://www.solveigmm.com/forum/index.php?topic=2332.0.

I do not get #3 to work.

#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>

The output is not a join of the list of input files, only the first one appears in the (joined) output.

I actually use :

<timeline>
    <group name="D:\test\join_1.WMV" mode="joining">
      <track  video="-1" audio="-1">
         <clip src="D:\test\o_1.WMV"  start="00:00:00:00" stop="00:00:00:00" />
         <clip src="D:\test\t_1.WMV"  start="00:00:00:00" stop="00:00:00:00" />
         <clip src="D:\test\o_2.WMV"  start="00:00:00:00" stop="00:00:00:00" />
       </track>
    </group>
</timeline>

t_1.wmv is a transition file I created using "PictureToVideo", as I did not get "SolveigMM BMPs to AVI | .NET application + DLL" to run, and because it allows for transitions. I suppose that the video params of this transition file do not exactly match with those of the other WMV files ? Which params are critical ?

When I remove this transition file, and I keep the 2 regular WMV files, SMM_Batchsplit creates the join file, but crashes before writing its log file, with the regular Windows error "... has encountered a problem and needs to close...".

Thank you, Dmitry. That was quick, and on a Sunday !

Going at work with it right away.

Do I understand it right that with this SMM_BatchSplit there is no way to insert a title for each clip, or maybe an overlay text ?
Is there another way to do it, in order to have a way to identify the different clips  ?

Video Splitter / XLT for batch processor

« on: July 31, 2011, 10:48:30 PM »

I am evaluating Video Splitter for this one need I have.

I need to extract many fragments from many WMV files, and join all the fragments into one (WMV or other) file. The start and end of the fragments are set in my own software. I am looking for a batch processor that could run the list of fragments, extract them off their files, and join them.

Seems that VS could do the job. Amongst its features, I read "Supports batch files (.xtl)". Now I need the structure of the XLT file wanted by VS, but I do not seem to find it promptly. Please advise.
