Beta Testing / SolveigMM Video Splitter 1.1 Beta (WMV/ASF support)

« on: March 22, 2006, 12:54:25 PM »

Hi,

I just bought SolveigMM Video Splitter 1.1 beta and have been using it to pretty good effect with WMV files. But I have a few questions which hopefully someone can answer.

First, I assume that it does not edit WMV files with what is called 'frame accuracy', but "k frame accuracy'. This leads me to ask what is a K frame?

Second, and following on from this, when I edit WMV files (or any compatible files for that matter) is it best if I edit at the K-frame points or can I just put the file on play and set the markers where I please?

Third. is this product going to be extended to mpeg1 file splitting as well? I would find that pretty useful.

thanks

Hello philebus,

First of all K Frames are Key ones. Video sequence encoded usually consists of groups of pictures (GOP). GOP consists of Key frame (that is first one in GOP) and delta frames. Key frame is encoded independently as a statical picture but delta frames are predicted from K frame and can't be decoded without K frame.

Thus to provide an user fast and a video quality lossless video trimming, the Video Splitter performs trimming tasks with K Frame accuracy.
That means that all output fragments will be started with K frame.

Second, and following on from this, when I edit WMV files (or any compatible files for that matter) is it best if I edit at the K-frame points or can I just put the file on play and set the markers where I please?

Actually for an usability the Video Splitter allow an user to set video positions to K Frames Only. That means that if you select fragments by markers you they already will be started with K Frame.

For now, jointly with Elecard, we are preparing MPEG-2 Frame Accuracy Editing solution that will be added as a feature both to a further version of SolveigMM Video Splitter and Elecard XMuxer.

As for MPEG-1 editing we could take such a feature into consideration but could you describe what do you need it for?

When to add 264 support?  thank you

We are going to add MPEG-4 AVC (H264) to the component.
Now it supports multi-fragmant editing with GOP accuracy of AVI, WMV, ASF files.
Now it is preparig MPEG-2 Frame Accuracy and after that MP4 support is planning to be implemented.

SolveigMM AVI Trimmer / AVITrimmer version 1.1

« on: March 14, 2006, 02:08:44 PM »

By the way Dmitry, I do have one small issue. The start time does not coincide with the assumed begin time; its off by 5 to 10 seconds sometimes. The end time is perfectly correct. What may cause this inaccuracy?

Hello Roberto,
As you probably know, to provide an user fast and a video quality lossless video trimming, the AVI Trimmer performs trimming tasks with K Frame accuracy.

That means that an output fragment will be started with K frame.
And if K frame time position doesn't coincide with the start time set, the output AVI file lenhgt will consists of a fragment length set plus a time of frames up to previous K Frame.



This feature guarantees you a proper playback of the trimmed AVI file.

Also you can try the full featured version - SolveigMM Video Splitter instead.

Though it is shareware product it hasn't any restriction even after an evaluation perion is expired.

The Video Splitter has (What You See Is What You Get ) preview feature (positioning only to K Frames).

Beta Testing / Re: SolveigMM AVI Trimmer 1.1 requires MFC71d.dll and MSVCR7

« on: January 15, 2006, 06:33:44 PM »

SolveigMM AVI Trimmer 1.1 will not execute for most users since it requires MFC71d.dll and MSVCR71d.dll, which are MFC debug DLL’s. Is it possible to repackage the distribution with runtime libraries required for Release build, i.e.MFC71.dll and MSVCR71.dll?

Hello,
Thank you for the notice.
It is already fixed and you can download the updated release version:

Hi Dmitry,
What did you find?  It has been several weeks since I uploaded the file.

Thanks, John

Hi JohnL,

Well, it seems some VFW decoders have some kind of problems.
I have been able to force operate neither ffdshow nor native DIVX 6.0 codecs.

We started to clear up this question in microsoft  microsoft.public.windowsmedia.sdk newsgroup.

Here you can follow the thoughts
http://www.wmptalk.com/ftopic25414.html

In result we have found out that VFW DIVX v 5.1 operates properly within WMP while ASF playing.
