thanks.
still get license error using latest gopro cineform codec v.8.3.4 when running video analysis pass. It encodes 1080 fine durring pass two when saving avi as though.
also get error-4 using matrox mpeg2 Iframe for video analysis pass with 1080 and 720 footage.
Where do you guys think I am going wrong? codecs are selected from compression menu. running vdub 1.9.11 32bit on win 7 64bit.
also available: Matrox mpeg2 all I-frame (http://www.matrox.com/video/en/support/windows/vfw_software_codecs/downloads/softwares/version1.0/)
newest gopro cineform. I can use it no problem with 1080p.
also available: canopus HQ codec, essentially the same.
another vdub question. what codec's do you guys use to convert in vdub for deshake? I currently use gopro cineform codec, works fine with 720 but has liscence error when converting 1080p files.
edit:it works if its uncompressed in pass 1 then switched to cineform on pass 2 save as avi. though would much prefer a more streamline approach
thanks
Hey CraftyClown!
Okay try to read what ffmbc.exe says. unhide the ffmbc window and try to make a screenshot before it disappears. send me a pm with the screenshot. :) I will look into the problem!
Hi fatpig, I think I must be missing something here because I can't get your rewrapper to work.
I am adding both your gui and ffmbc to the folder that contains the mts files from my AF100, I click the browse button and then ok which gets the process started and Winrewrap goes through the batch process, each time listing successful for the mts files, however all I am left with is a bunch of mp4 files that are 0 bytes.
Any ideas?
I tried dslrpostprep, which successfully rewrapped my files to mp4, however it also converts the audio to aac, which sadly causes my Avid to have even more problems when I try to ingest the files :(
I have also tried Avidemux, but that crashes everytime I select a file. On their website they say deselect opengl in the preferences to stop this, but I'm afraid this makes no difference :(
If anyone knows of another rewrapper for windows that will successfully changes the container without changing the contents, I will be eternally grateful :)
I'm starting to think I'm cursed!
@thepalalias brilliant. yep, as long as the processing part is batch automated im happy. thanks!
btw, audio sync was an audio delay value error on my part. thanks again guys.
@MRfanny There's a semi-batch method. You still have to do each clip individually to set it up first, but then it will process them all for you in a batch.
Note that you may want to close and re-open VirtualDub after step 7. This ensures that your list is saved, so that you can start again from step 8 if you encounter a crash.
thanks kankala, that worked a treat also (audio is out of sync though for some reason). another vdub beginner question. is there a way to batch process mts files for deshake? so far i have to do each clip manually.
@MRfanny virtualdub can open MTS files with ffinputdriver plugin (http://code.google.com/p/ffinputdriver/downloads/list) plugin and maybe even with the dshowinputdriver plugin (http://forums.virtualdub.org/index.php?act=ST&f=7&t=15093).
I used virtualdub with ffinputdriver to transcode avchd to canopus hqx in order to avoid the quicktime h264 decoder. to transcode to prores i used ffmbc with batch files.
it's great that this initiative is made, now the benefits of ffmbc are available to a lot more people. congratulations @fatpig
happy to hear that :)
vdrop worked like a treat =). Much appreciated!
nice :) maybe good for later additions :)
BTW: avidemux 2.6 can not only re-multiplex MTS files into other video container formats (such as .mp4 or .mkv), it also allows cutting at I-frames without recompression or loss of quality. I've used it a lot for cutting GH2 recorded .MTS files quickly and coarsely before composing them much later in another application.
thanks, guys, I will include the link in the OP. My Bad. :)

@notrons: post prep tool looks like a nice tool :) thanks for pointing me to it. I think the XML standard is universal, it should be no problem.
My Tool is strictly for rewrapping only, not converting :)
Sounds great for Vegas users. Will the process work for Premiere Pro output to xml also?
For non-Vegas users, for similar functionality plus a variety of conversion codecs to choose from (as well as simple re-wrap to .mp4) check out DSLR Post Prep Utility for Windows at http://hdcinematics.com/NewWeb/tools.html. If you need timecode and reel name metadata try AWU or TCBurner. These tools do not modify xml files however. For Mac users check out the thread on MACWU @ http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/4670/collecting-ideas-to-build-up-a-avchd-prores-resolve-workflow./p1
Hats off to @fatpig for adding another free tool to the shed for AVCHD users! It will be interesting to see in what direction Vegas users will drive further development!
Are you sure that Virtualdub opens any H.264 files? I can recommend to you another tool I wrote, which uses avisynth via directshow to import any videofile into vdub, it is called vdrop and can be found here:
http://board.gulli.com/thread/945566-vdrop-v0-1-jede-art-von-video-in-virtualdub-oeffnen/ I developed it for exactly this purpose (Deshaker).
If any weird problems occur, try running as admin or placing it on desktop/ in folder program files
You have to have AviSynth installed.
very handy. thanks for your efforts. looking for an mts workflow for virtualdub deshake. virtualdub doesnt open the rewrapped files unfortunately as I had hoped.
Hi Fatpig
This app can help me and my company a lot
Were looking for developer that will compile us a AVCHD to MOV re-wrap tool that will work using Avid AMA.
We are willing to pay for this.
We need it to support:
Please contact me at dori at opus-tv dot co dot il
Thanks!!
Dori
happy to help. :) I compiled another version for you, try it :)
Thanks for this handy tool. Is there any reason why the audio gets converted to aac? Can we have an option to keep the original audio format without conversion?
It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
