It would be cool if he also could find the right CQ value! (or at least display how big the sample size should be).

hi Muaddib,

How about adding another tab which would be a full-screen editor like Notepad? This would make it easier to add functions and stuff and there wouldn't be any need to open up Notepad- plus Notepad always defaults to .txt files which I hate.
oh well just a thought.

You've done a great job on this.

Hi muaddib,

Congratulations, great proggy! :D

Just a question - would it be possible to let MovieStacker detect the
film-pixels and set the correct values for top/left borders, maybe via
a dedicated 'auto-detect borders' button :?:

keep on rocking
regards, ***mfb***

That should already be taken care of by GripCrop, GripSize and GripBorders 8)

I would like to see NoMoSmooth added since it is a good "motion" smoother.

Quote from SansGrip:

"While both NoMo and Flux are spatio-temporal smoothers, they are otherwise not very similiar.
NoMo tries to differentiate between static areas and those in motion, with the hope of reducing motion-related artifacts."

"Flux, on the other hand, specifically targets what I like to call "fluctuating" pixels. "

Automatically calculate the CQ value (calling TMPG, etc, etc...) is not in the plans right now, but I'm planning to add a TAB exclusively for prediction. May be something like KVCD-Predictor... I don't know yet.

I was planning to change the icon, but hey ren, that’s a good idea!
I never played with icon edition before, but I’ll try it…
If you (or someone else) know how to do it, I will appreciate. :D

About the full TAB text editor… I’ll put that in my “to do” list.

Not for the next release… but I already have a button (that’s not visible) placed in the resize section for that purpose. It would show a window with a frame of your video source and you will be able to auto crop the border, or do it manually. Or even cut some of the left and right film pixels to increase the height of a widescreen source (maintaining the aspect ratio), all in real time so you can graphically see the changes. Something like GordianKnot crop system.

But that’s a future project… for now, if you want auto crop/resize/borders you have to use the excellent GripFit filter.

Consider done! :wink:

Is it possible to include the PAL resolutions in the presets?

Hi VILLA21,

No matter if your source is PAL or NTSC, MovieStacker should auto-detect what kind of source you have and set the resolution correctly.
The presets are named like they if they were just NTSC (like 352x480), but they should be named like this: 352x480(576)

Great program!!!! :lol: Just tried it last night and worked great. The load/save option is a great addition. Only have one question, the preset template settings under load are they the ones that kwag told you to use and are the up to date avs script? :?: Other than that great program. :lol: :mrgreen:

rendalunit 02-25-2003 11:43 AM

I think a ConvertToYUY2() or ConvertToYV12 (depending on the version of Avisynth) would be nice- right after the source line

GetUp 02-25-2003 02:39 PM

How about Trim (X, XXX) adding? :) With visual selection? Very useful for end credits cut-off.

kwag 02-26-2003 01:47 AM

Hi muaddib,

For your next release, please add:

mergechroma(blur( 1.58 )) and mergeluma(blur( 0.2 )) :wink:

-kwag

KingTuk 02-26-2003 01:59 AM

also, on the next realease

please put NomoSmooth before temporalcleaner and Convolution3D

so you would end up with an order like this:

SpaceDust()
FluxSmooth()
NoMoSmooth()
TemporalCleaner()
AddBorders(16, 113, 16, 113)
LegalClip()

or this:

SpaceDust()
FluxSmooth()
NoMoSmooth()
Convolution3D(preset="movieHQ")
AddBorders(16, 113, 16, 113)
LegalClip()

Thanks

nice program :D thanks!

requests:
1) slim down the exe (900k too big) by using KOL/MCK http://xcl.cjb.net/
2) preview tab with original/converted option to check for differences
(with seek bar of course)

... and keep up the good work

Or better yet http://upx.sf.net :wink:

TBD 02-26-2003 02:50 AM

kwag: by using upx you compress the garbage that Delphi puts in the exe,
if you use KOL/MCK you will have a slim exe with no garbage and if you upx you will gain even more.
i think that MovieStacker should not be more than 100k in present form :)
