What is the compressed size of MovieStacker.exe with KOL :?:
With upx, it brought the file size down from ~900KB to 327KB.

-kwag

kwag: KOL is not a packer as UPX, there are size optimized libraries for Delphi so that the compiled exe will be smaller by using Win32APi and linking only the needed functions.

i cannot say how small is MovieStacker because i dont have the sources to compile with KOL ( also i dont have Delphi :oops: ).

maybe if muaddib has some time to check KOL to see how small it will compile

Oh ok :D. I thought it was also a compressor 8)

-kwag

multiple files and trimming of each file

The ability to add subtitles would be nice.

Wow!! I'm writing it all down... but please be patient, I'm not a fast coder and I do it as a hobby. :wink:
Don't stop the requests! As soon I have something new I'll release a new version. :D

Hi Muaddib!

Excellent job on your latest release 8) That editor makes things so much easier.

Here's my request 8O :lol: Show the movie length in minutes instead of seconds. Personally I rarely need the length in seconds but more often in minutes. Also occasionally there is a red "Warning" sign below the length and i was wondering what the warning referred to.

thanks a lot,
ren

Hi TBD,

I downloaded KOL and it looks really good!
But (correct me if I'm wrong) I will have to redraw ALL 8O the program to use KOL, since I have to use only special MCK components designed for working with KOL project.
I mean I can't drop any non-MCK components and controls onto the form! 8O 8O

Man... I'll have to do it all again. :(
That will take too long time.

Is that correct?

Wouldn't it be just simpler to use upx, which I tested on MovieStacker.exe and brought it down to ~300KB, instead of re-writing software 8O

-kwag

I can't help it- have to ask a stupid question: what's wrong with 900k exe? it can still be put on a floppy 8O

That's what I thought! :mrgreen:


Do you know if we loose any performance/speed using UPX?

The other way around, it loads and runs faster :D
Try it :wink:

-kwag

I already did! :mrgreen:
Next version will be compressed! :wink:

Thanks ren! I knew you would like it. :wink:

Well, that's a simple one, but you can just click on the "streams tab" and see the time in minutes in the "video stream" section.

Can you tell me when the "warning" appears?
The "tooltip" above it should explain why.
Just place the mouse on top of it and you should read something like this:
"Couldn’t find the Sequence-Header of the MPEG!" or
"Can’t get info from the embedded source-MPG!" or
"D2V-file must be broken!?" , etc...

Thanks acidfire!
The presets were made with kwag's help, but that was when MovieStacker didn't support NoMoSmooth. Now it does, and I think kwag is using NoMoSmooth in his scripts (correct me if I'm wrong). With the MovieStacker preset system is easy to him make some new presets, zip them and post here for us! :wink: :mrgreen:

I just tried to get the warning to reappear and it wouldn't 8O But when I first saw it I didn't scroll over it with the mouse pointer- so next time I will- thanks for that tip :wink:
i like the new icon- colorful cd- but i was really hoping for your avatar [giant kick-ass robot with the shotgun] 8) that's ok- either way i was sick of the fitcd icon :lol:

Support for subtitles
 

Hi Muaddib,

One nice feature I could think off, is the support for subtitles with the VobSub plugin that can both be used with VirtualDub and AviSynth.

Something like:

LoadPlugin("c:Program Files\Virtualdubplugins\TextSub.vdf")
mpeg2source("d:dvdmatrixmatrix.d2v")
#[filter]
#[filter]
#[filter]
#[filter]
TextSub(d:dvdmatrixsubsmatrix.srt")

We would need a button to load the subtitle file and a button to activate the Textsub command in the script.

Your program helps me a lot in automating the script. The only thing I have to do afterwards (if I want to add subtitles to for example divx movies) is manually add the subtitles commands. If this could be automated it would help a lot.

Best regards,

Turbo

this is not so much a feature request, how about a guide to which are the best settings?

You mean filter settings!? 8O
Oh man... that would be great, but I'm afraid I don't know what they are! :wink:
And they tend to change frequently. Stay connected to KVCD.net posts so you can be aware of the "latest" best settings!

My request :

custom the destination size to what i want. I explain : i've a PocketPC and want to create Pocket-KVCD. The size is 320x176 but doesn't exist in MovieStacker...
