Unofficial VirtualDub Support Forums > News / Announcements > Virtualdubmod Bugfix Released!


Posted by: Belgabor Dec 29 2002, 07:32 PM
There've been some bad bugs in the last version (mostly related to the NET mod), so we decided to release a bugfix version. As not all bugs are fixed yet, this is just a prerelease (= exe+vdi only).

CODE

Cyrius:
- Some NET mode related bug fixes.

Belgabor:
- Reorganized the menu to make it clearer.
- Merged Streams and Cyrius' NET mod fixes.
- Release Notes more aptly named changelog

Stream:
- Fixed several bugs
 * NET mod stop with script error on final stage of encode.
 * NET mod crash when input path-name is too long.
 * Can't load processing setting if external WAV file is set
   as audio source.
 * NET mod stop if output type is old format AVI.

Errata to the last changelog:
Its wrong that Cyrius didnt like '1337', he just didnt know what it means, :p


One last pice of info:
Doom9 rose our attetion to http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=36094, which deals about ac3 mistreatment in nandub. Cyrius already had some how fixed this (citing his reply):
QUOTE

I saw this thread last month.
I couldn't read it entirely (there are a lot of posts wink.gif, and it concerns MP3 and AC3 muxing in AVI) but as far as I could read (and remember) the AC3 parts explain that the problem with Nandub is that it cut the stream anywhere (i.e. generally in the middle of a frame).
I somehow corrected that (it is easily possible only when opening an AC3 file to mux) by adding the 'AC3 frame mode' feature (extra option proposed when opening an AC3 file in VDubMod). This force VDubMod to treat whole AC3 frames (and so will prevent it to cut in the middle ot those frames).
IIRC this is still effective (the fact VDub treat whole AC3 frames) when reopening the file in VDubMod (or VDub) since AVI header of the stream is modified accordingly.


Cheers
Belgabor

New release (VirtualDubMod_170103)
(be careful you get the right one, sourceforge doesn't sort by date on this files)
CODE

Cyrius:
- Some NET mode related bug fixes.
- Fixed crash when selecting a NULL LANGUAGE comment ('LANGUAGE=(null)')
- Fixed wrong interleaving in per-ms mode on a VBR MP3 stream ala Nandub.
 Thanks to Steven Greenberg (Doom9's forum) for pointing out the problem
 and providing a quick fix.
- When opening a file VDubMod should now show the first frame. [known bug: doesn't work with MRU & drag'n'drop]
- Fixed bug when demuxing stream from an OGM file :
 * SRT file wouldn't contain the subtitles (first one at most)
 * When demuxing with WAV header and overwriting an existing file (longer
   than the stream being demuxed) some bytes from the old file would remain
   at the end of the demuxed stream
- Disabled initial resizing code as well.
 Put in the same #ifdef test than other resizing code.
- Job Control window will now appear when launching VDubMod to process queued jobs.
 This should prevent VDubMod to crash in those circunstances (e.g. when being
 used by GKnot) because some variables are initialized when opening this window.

Belgabor:
- Reorganized the menu to make it clearer.
- Merged Streams and Cyrius' NET mod fixes.
- Release Notes more aptly named changelog.
- Disabled resizing code till Stone-D implements preferences.
 (I put it under a #define switch, see virtualdub.h)
- The time bar ticks are now switchable between
 * Off
 * Frame mode (normal)
 * Source Key Frames
 * Key Frames in divx3/xvid stats file (load via Tools/Open Stats File...)
- Stats file savable
- Toggle Keyframes in stats file (default key: Space)
- Frame info from stats file
 (Comment on stats file stuff:
  xvid suff is ready for work [bug reports & feature requests welcome]
  to do list [=dun request, we already thought about & will work on it]:
  * Divx5 log file support
  * Import from chapters file / ogm chapter info)

Stream:
- Fixed several bugs
 * NET mod stop with script error on final stage of encode.
 * NET mod crash when input path-name is too long.
 * Can't load processing setting if external WAV file is set
   as audio source.
 * NET mod stop if output type is old format AVI.
 * NET mod stop if output type is OGM.
 * NET mod freeze when input is too short.
 * NET mod freeze when input file is MPEG-2.
 * NET mod freeze when input file is OGM.
 * CBR MP3 muxing cause audio being out of sync.
 * Script error occurred when OGM comments include special character.

My error ^^;
This will be fixed for a next release (well the fix is already in the CVS for those who are interested).

It seems there is a new VirtualDubMOD bugfix release 1/31/2003

Posted by: Belgabor Feb 2 2003, 09:03 PM
Yes, there is smile.gif
Sorry for being late, but ew was down on release day and i simply forgot yesterday.

But here you go (VirtualDubMod_310203.zip):
Like with the last one be careful to get the right one!
CODE

Cyrius:
- Some NET mode related bug fixes.
- Fixed crash when selecting a NULL LANGUAGE comment ('LANGUAGE=(null)')
- Fixed wrong interleaving in per-ms mode on a VBR MP3 stream ala Nandub.
 Thanks to Steven Greenberg (Doom9's forum) for pointing out the problem
 and providing a quick fix.

 * SRT file wouldn't contain the subtitles (first one at most)
 * When demuxing with WAV header and overwriting an existing file (longer

- Disabled initial resizing code as well.

- Job Control window will now appear when launching VDubMod to process queued jobs.
 This should prevent VDubMod to crash in those circunstances (e.g. when being
 used by GKnot) because some variables are initialized when opening this window.
- Added jonny's mods (Doom9 forum, DivX 5 Enc author) - commandline options :
 * /log : generates (in the same directory) a vdenc.log file containing some
   information (type and size of frame) about the clip.
 * /nowrite : prevent VirtualDubMod from writing video data in the output file.
 Nb : those options must be placed before any other because VirtualDub(Mod) parse
 the commandline on sequence.
- Batch process still stop in NET mode when an error occurs for one job.
- MP3 VBR handling (a la Nandub) is now a preference setting (and so can be saved).
 See the 'AVI' section in the 'Preferences' window. Each time a VBR stream is found
 inside an AVI the VBR warning will be shown (like in VirtualDub) and you will be
 asked if default setting must be applied or not for this stream.
- 'AC3 Frame mode' has been put in the preferences too. You will still be able to
 enable/disable this feature when opening an AC3 file (for AVI audio), but the
 checkbox is now set according to the default setting.
- Added the list of functions available in VirtualDubMod scripts in the Help file.

Belgabor:
- Reorganized the menu to make it clearer.
- Merged Streams and Cyrius' NET mod fixes.
- Release Notes more aptly named changelog.
- Disabled resizing code till Stone-D implements preferences.

- The time bar ticks are now switchable between

  to do list [=dun request, we already thought about & will work on it]:
  * Divx5 log file support
  * Import from chapters file / ogm chapter info)
- Improved 'Scan video stream for errors'. As the classic vdub version didn't work
 for me in two files i checked, I implemented an improved version which did. Alas
 it's a bit slower so I left the classical version in.
 Both versions do NOT mask frames by default, thus three new menu items have been
 added:
 * Show bad frames
 * Mask bad frames (like what the classic scan did automatically)
 * Delete bad frames (like marking the frames and pressing 'Del')
 To prevent mistakes, the mask and delete commands flush the internal frame list, so
 none of these three commands will work afterwards until you rescan the stream.

Stream:
- Fixed several bugs
 * NET mod stop with script error on final stage of encode.
 * NET mod crash when input path-name is too long.
 * Can't load processing setting if external WAV file is set
   as audio source.
 * NET mod stop if output type is old format AVI.
 * NET mod stop if output type is OGM.
 * NET mod freeze when input is too short.
 * NET mod freeze when input file is MPEG-2.
 * NET mod freeze when input file is OGM.
 * CBR MP3 muxing cause audio being out of sync.
 * Script error occurred when OGM comments include special character.
 * Whole batch process stopped after an error in a job.

Errata to the last changelog:
Its wrong that Cyrius didnt like '1337', he just didnt know what it means :p


Main reason for this release is I want you guys to test the new bad frame scanning features smile.gif

hello,

where is the MPEG2 stuff from fccHandler ???. The code works fine in
original VD.
