MkvMagic 1.10

Here is the new MkvMagic 1.10 !!!

Changelog

1.10
Added average encoding speed in log report
Added support to generic vfw codec ( like DivX 6 ). In codec list are added two new entry: "2 Pass Manual VFW Codec" and "1 Pass Manual VFW Codec".
!!! NOTE !!!
"Conf. Codec" is enabled if you choose one of these encoding mode.
IF YOU CLICK on "Conf. Codec" you MUST configure one or two pass codec AND this EXACT SETTING (bitrate...) will be used in encoding, both for autosize and final encoding. TIPS: use "Credit/Calc/Audio" for computing bitrate
IF YOU DON'T CLICK on "Conf. Codec" MkvMagic will ASK and you MUST set codec at encoding time, both for autoresize and final encoding. Before autosize and final encoding a message info is displayed for average bitrate knowledge. The only drawback is encoding will wait for your input. Es. choose input, choose 2 pass vfw -> start ! -> indexing -> audio encoding -> ask for autoresize codec config -> ask two time for codec configuration (one for both pass)
Update Tutorial
1.09
Added support for Aud-X 1.2 audio engine. Use it only if audio is AC3 5ch !!! more information at http://www.aud-x.com/
Here a little report:
STRQ - Streaming Quality - (80 kbps)
STDQ - Standard Quality - (128 kbps)
HGHQ - High Quality - (192 kbps)
SPBQ - Superb Quality - (192 kbps)
Aud-X is an awesome audio format! Is able to encode in 5.1 channel on mp3 format with quality in low bitrate ! But isn't only this ... while decoding, using is directshow filter (freeware !!!) the stream is re-expanded in original ac3 format with full 5.1 channel support (even with spdif out)
Update lame_enc.dll to 3.98 beta2
Update LAVC. Removed -noskip because it can cause broken encoding with many mencoder build
1.08
Added custom compression check. As write in ToolTip:
Specify the threshold % for accept compression test. Es. You write here 75 and check "Only Compression Test" . If Compressione Test will give 74 the encoding is stopped, Else if CT is over 75 the full encoding will start. If you write here 0 only the CT is done regardless of any CT results. If you write here 101 the CT is accepted regardless of any CT results and the encoding restart.
Added the possibility to add custom options to X264 command line encoder (useful for zones...)
1.07
Is now possible to specify crop values in "Credits/Calc/Audio" , examples (please read carefully)
1) Check "Enable manual crop", specify crop values and LEAVE "WIDTH" / "HEIGHT" to "AUTO". The movie will be cropped at specified values and automatic resize routines is used. First is applyed crop then resize.
2) Specify WIDTH and HEIGHT to your preferred values AND DO NOT CHECK "Enable manual crop". Movie will be resized to specified WIDTH and then AUTOCROP
3) Specify WIDTH and HEIGHT to your preferred values AND CHECK "Enable manual crop" AND SET ALL CROP. Movie will be cropped and THEN resized to specified WIDTH
4 If you want to use HGAvsOptimizer then you MUST specify already in resize configuration the width/height like LimitedSharpen(1.25,1.25,640,480,smode=4) ,where 640 is width and 480 is height
1.06
Added in list of subs "Rip ALL SUBS" for subripping all sub
Added a new type of filter. In list of filter you will find def-***. You can create how many preset of filter , put this preset file (take a look at def-test) into filter directory, the file MUST be named "def-" and any name of your choice like "def-fast" or "def-luma" ... This file will be paste at end of filter chain
Is now possible to NOT apply filter in HGAvSOptimizer, just select NONE
Corrected bug using Spresso fuction with HGAvsOptimizer
