Try adding "--lzma" switch, makes exe even smaller! |

You are right! I found that using the following command: upx --compress-icons=0 --lzma VirtualDub.exe gave the best compression while still preserving the icons.

I also used it in the version I posted yesterday. 
Thanks for the tip.

my plan(mentioned by the end of the 1.6.15 release thread) is not going that smooth. got same errors in both vdub-mpeg2 and vdubmod:


now while somebody might say "it's only moaning anyway, and you don't need any audio there", and be totally correct, i still feel obligated to report this issue.
mp2 audio is made by dgmpegdec1.4.8
now, i bet we don't have any more options as far as mp2 acm codec goes? fcc, can you steal decoder from graft and merge it to vdub-mpeg2?
or use windows decoder and internally convert to pcm and feed that to audio compressor.
or use this decoder http://avisynth.org/warpenterprises/files/...ll_20031214.zip http://avisynth.org/warpenterprises/files/...ll_20040109.zip

We already have an MPEG audio decoder built into VirtualDub, unfortunately it's not so easy to integrate into the AVI audio path. I tried it once, but I didn't have much success then. I might give it another try, though...
Regarding VirtualDubMod, there was a checkbox in the preferences called "Priss rocks" I think. IIRC it supposedly does exactly what I've described above, i.e., it uses the internal decoder for MPEG audio in AVI files.
As far as encoding MP2 audio, I can't help you much there. I've always been fond of toolame, but I don't think there's a toolame ACM codec for VirtualDub.

aha..i actually wrote something like "but why don't you use vdub's mpeg decoder", but i saw the logic problem there(why use external at all when you already have one?) so i erased it... now it's all clear.
yes, priss was off at the time...will give it a try next time.
i wasn't trying to encode to mp2; your error dialog box seems to be missing 'de' from 'decompressing'.

I see, I hadn't noticed that both were decompressing! 
The first dialog doesn't seem to exist in VirtualDub; I assume it's from VirtualDubMod? I did find the second dialog in the "Riza" module, and indeed it always says "compressing." Probably just an oversight, since the other dialogs in that module do check whether the error was caused by compressing or decompressing.

Versions that still had the decompression logic in audio.cpp did report "decompressing" when appropriate -- this regression was introduced when I migrated the code. |

Update to this thread:
I've moved a bunch of off topic posts from this thread into another thread in the "Off Topic" forum. Some of you (you know who you are) may carry on your feud there if you wish.

Don't get me wrong, not that i mean you should have stayrd down 
Kind regards

I actually do a lot of video capturing, but I'm not "into" digital video the way I used to be. It doesn't excite me or fascinate me anymore; it's just routine now.
However, I'll never lose interest in programming, and there are still a lot of things that can and should be improved about VirtualDub-MPEG2. Some of its code is a nightmare, though (e.g., "Mpeg2.cpp"). 
For now, I just wanted to add support for importing MPEG Layer II audio, because some people were asking about it in another thread, and it seemed fairly easy to do...

OOOH! I just noticed that there is an update for one of my favorite VirtualDub mods. Thank you so much for this! I thought it was dead by now. |
