Submit and forget Contributed by lemsx1 on Tuesday January 13, 2004 10:30AM from the more-on-clusters dept. |
| For those of you who may want to improve your transcoding time you may find this article in Linux Journal very useful; it talks about the use of multiple computers to parallelize the processing of the files to be transcoded. Excellent read even if you want to do more than just transcoding -- seti@home anybody? Also, it talks about using Condor to manage schedule batch jobs and other interfaces available today for Linux/UNIX. Also, it has some benchmarks -- we all love those little numbers. . |

2.2.4: NTSC buster! Contributed by lemsx1 on Wednesday January 7, 2004 08:23PM from the clustering-easier-than-ever dept. |
| New release that makes flawless NTSC encoding possible. If you get out-of-sync sound/video errors, please report bugs, and we will try to squash them. Also, please use the mailing lists if you need help before reporting your bugs.
Click here to get it 2.2.4 (tar.gz) There are a lot of exciting things in this new release:
We are looking for more developers to join us in improving the code. Essentially, we would like to internationalized the code and make it completely platform independent -- so that one can easily use it on Windows, MacOS X or any where else -- This is Perl code after all, and transcode can easily be substituted if necessary. Please check the TODO file if you want to help us. . |

%README% See http://v2divx.sourceforge.net/ for the latest and greatest news... |================== | What's V2divx? It is a perl script which does a lot of work for you to rip your DVD, and (re)encode your DVD, DV (raw,Quicktime or AVI Digital Video from Kino or from your Digital Camcorder) or AVI (DVSD, DX50, DIV3, DIVX ...) files into a DivX file with the fabulous TRANSCODE . What does V2divx do ? 1) rip your DVD to vob files. 2) detect titles ( and then the main title ) of a DVD. 3) detect the DVD volume identification if you install dvdtitle. 4) detect if the DVD title is a multi-angle video stream (and rip only one). 5) detect video input format (container and codec). 6) detect if the video frames are interlaced. 7) detect all audio channels (and their languages) in the input video files. 8) detect the input format of all audio channels (mp3,dts,ac3,lpcm,mpeg2ext). 9) supports to encode two audio channels in avi files. 10) detect suggested volume rescale. 11) is able to add subtitles (on stream or in an srt subfile). 12) detect the aspect ratio and then calculate the best output image size, Note: this does NOT give you the best aspect ratio, but the best image quality. V2divx use the Bits per Pixel value : BpP=bitrate*1000/(fps * height * width) V2divx uses BpP=0.18 without letterboxes, BpP is recalculated depending on letterboxes size. The smaller the video bitrate, the smaller will be the image size (your avi player will resize it to full screen). The final aspect ratio rarely is much different from the original aspect ratio (which pratically never respects the motion picture aspect ratio.) 13) detect if deinterlacing is necessary (and detect if transcode was compiled with the MPlayer pp lib and/or mpeg tools) 14) detect if the slow Zooming transcode option (-Z) is necessary or not. 15) is able to encode on a cluster (even multiple sequence unit video streams) 16) is able to prepend a Logo to the DivX (even in cluster mode since release 1.0.2) . 17) remove (if you want) the end and begin credits (to reduce space and leave it to the movie itself). 18) And finally guide you from your Video file to your DivX file. That's all Folk's ;)... Requirements: * Perl 5.x * transcode * xv (or ImageMagick) * any video file viewer (Mplayer, Xine, playdv etc...) * divx (MPEG-4) viewer (MPlayer or aviplay etc...) * optionally (but recommended) dvdtitle, pgmfindclip and the srttools (see the contrib transcode source directory).
