ADDED: Movie name is now based on folder name (in case of ifo input) (suggestion by AMED)
ADDED: Possibility to specify only the crop values and not the width and height (suggestion by Honeyko)
ADDED: "Don't Mux But Save Temp Folder" checking this option will force AutoMKV to rename temp folder (based on movie name) and to not mux
ADDED: In case of MP4 container and AC3 Audio now AutoMKV will not quit. It will prompt a message about not able to mux and will move the temp folder
ADDED: Now FFmpeg Encoding take account of Manual Crop&Resize and Manual Crop and Specify Bitrate. In this way AutoMKV can be instructed to do near all FFmpeg Encoding
ADDED: Colored crop value. Green = OK, Red = Wrong
ADDED: Colored Manual Width and Height Value, Green = OK, Blu = not so well , Red = Wrong
ADDED: Option to add "--engage keep_bitstream_ar_info" to muxing command line
ADDED: Tips! If you don't want tips just delete the file tips.txt
ADDED: Support for M2TS container using excellent tsMuxeR. I suggest to use PS3_XboX360 profile (have nal-hrd/aud enabled)
FIXED: When reopening CQ TUNE the previus values where rounded up (thanks to Honeyko)
FIXED: On d2v input, when checking Manual Crop and Resize will show correct value on Width and Height
FIXED: When encoding is running is no more possible to add job in queue
FIXED: Now Value of Crop and Width/height are greyed till user click on "Use Manual Crop/Resize" or "Manual Crop" (suggestion by Honeyko)
FIXED: Now when pressing Start Queue, the button "Start Queue" will be disabled (suggestion by Honeyko)
FIXED: In case of triggered ffmpeg encoding (avi/xvid) now AutoMKV wil correctly mux the final file (thanks to Honeyko)
FIXED: Now AutoMKV wil rename automatically "movie name" contain illegal character like|!<>"?\/.
FIXED: Even on Avi muxing AutoMKV will check for already existing file destination. In this case will create a muxed file starting with numbers_movie name.avi (thanks to Honeyko)
FIXED: On Avi muxing the original audio is no more muxed (thanks to ryc0203)
FIXED: Manual Crop and Resize will disable Width on load settings (thanks to Honeyko)
FIXED: Force Mux Height and Width are remebered on qeque
FIXED: Quality Encoding will now trigger on ffmpeg encoding a quality encoding too
FIXED: Removed some pop up windows
FIXED: Usage of ITU and Anamorphic encoding (a BIG thanks to Valnar AND SeeMoreDigital)
FIXED: Anamorphic on muxing (thanks to Zacoz)
FIXED: Some issues using FFmpegSource
FIXED: Some issues using PreProcess to LossLess
FIXED: Reduced the number of "triggering" list. Now clicking on audio, video profile, container, codec AND not changing the value will not trigger AutoMKV routines
FIXED: DSS x A/V will force AutoMKV to use DirectShowSource for encoding both audio and video
FIXED: DSS x Audio will force AutoMKV to use DirectShowSource for encoding only audio (before will trigger even video)
FIXED: Whenever "Manual Resize / Crop" is checked, AutoMKV will determine if there is already a setting for Resize Filter other than NONE. If it is NONE, then it will be changed to SimpleResize(neutral soft). (suggestion by Honeyko)
FIXED: When checking "Specify Quality" the encoding status window will now display the selected CQ/CRF value (thanks to Honeyko)
FIXED: When checking Manual Crop&Resize the value of width specifyed in profile are ignored
FIXED: Deinterlacer Analysis is now minimized
FIXED: Some Layout in GUI, most cosmetic
FIXED: Some layout on log
UPDATE: FFmpegSource 1.14, ColorMatrix 2.3, TIVTC 1.0.5, FFmpeg r11562,Mp4Box 11/01/2008, X264 rev 736 (AQ 0.48, 2pass vbv, aud/nal-hrd) PS3_41.xml profile renamed to PS3_XBOX360.xml and lowred the qpmin to 5, Xbox.xml profile, oggenc2.84-aoTuVb5-generic.zip
UPDATE: Italian translation
DELETE: Some duplicate x264 profile (heritage of compatibility with Megui)
CHANGED: When selecting "Don't care about size" AutoMKV will not do anything, just on status bar "Don't use Automatic Width. It's a waste of time with Unlimited File Size."
CHANGED: On Zune profile all audio is now WMAPRO.
CHANGED: How AutoMKV will compute Height. Now the calculus are very precise and corrected to AR (i hope...)
CHANGED: AutoMKV can now handle delay audio in several ways. The default is to use DelayAudio in Soundout (as MeGeui) (AutoMKV will silently switch to Fix in Mux if audio is "copy original") (a precius suggestion by valnar). Or can Use DelayCut or can fix the delay in mux (as AutoGK)
CHANGED: In case of broken audio encoding AutoMKV will not try to use SoundOut but will pipe from ffmpeg to audio encoder. Due to inability of many encoders and bugs of FFmpeg.exe, AutoMKV will trigger a directly encoding made by FFmpeg

0.90b: Released: 15/09/2007

FIXED: On some system disabling the Show Enc Stats when encoding to x264 could lead to a bad encoding (thanks to AMED)

0.90a: Released: 14/09/2007

FIXED: Keyboard shortcut form HCEnc/Avs2Avi (previusly could break some games.. like PES6 when played at in windowed mode)
FIXED: Better thread optimizations

0.90: Released: 13/09/2007 $\infty$

ADDED: PGCDemux and DvdDecrypter support. Reworked how episodic dvd is engaged.

1) FIRST CASE: WORKING WITH DVD TO RIP the ripping will be done by dvddecrypter, in case of "difficult" ripping i suggest to use ripit4me or dvdfabdecrypter (after this you can mount the iso to simulate "dvd to rip") On PGC list select your pgc (episode) and DVDDecrypter will rip only this pgc

2) SECOND CASE: WORKING ON DVD ALREADY RIPPED (laying on hd) If selected the first pgc, dgindex will start directly, else PGCDemux will "demux" the selected pgc and this will be used for encoding Don't strip audio from dvd or dgindex will be fouled when demuxing audio tracks!

ADDED: CFilter folder in \exe folder. In this folder put plugin that need LoadCPlugin (like yadif)
ADDED: VirtualDubPlugins in \exe folder. In this folder put VirtualDub plugins that want to load (example DeLogo.vdf). The filter will be loaded as this (for example) LoadVirtualDubPlugin("c:\VirtualDub-1_4_10\plugins\delogo.vdf","delogo"), attention to filter name "delogo". The filter name is based on plugin name!. So if plugin is called "awesome_deinterlacer.vdf" the filter will de called "awesome_deinterlacer". To use DeLogo plugin (and other virtualdub plugins) remember to converto rgb32 before. like this ConvertToRGB32.delogo(1, "500-999", "D:/2.bmp", "D:/2.bmp", "D:/1.bmp", "D:/2.bmp", 34, 56, 0,0).ConvertToyv12(interlaced=true) , apply this string to Last line avs string or base.avs
ADDED: If .chunks is present in original folder, before launching VSrip these file will be deleted (suggestion by vOjToL)
ADDED: In Xvid Status encoding the total time estimated and % of worked frames (suggestion by connex)
ADDED: Even in xvid 2 pass encoding the average bitrate is displayed in window
ADDED: FFmpegSource to queue saving

ADDED: In X264 encoding window the bitrate (suggestion by bleedingum)
ADDED: In Advanced Audio Options the possibility to encode with SoundOut with OGG/FLAC/WAV Extended/MP2
ADDED: In log the use of Specify Quality and Specify Bitrate
ADDED: Workaround for "Field Order Transition Detected" on Dgindex. The d2v is now checked against TFM and if movie-fixed.d2v is generated, then AutoMKV will use it
ADDED: Check , in Advanced profile editing, for allowing third pass with x264 (suggestion by 3ngel)
ADDED: In Advanced Settings "Hide Subs". This option is to use only for mkv container and will force player to not show subtitle
ADDED: Option to force first pass with the same value as second pass. Check "HQ first pass" in Advanced profile editing (suggestion by 3ngel)
ADDED: XviD_Sap_Scure to use for SAP compatibility when dealing with high compressibility source
FIXED: Using preview with d2v with HD movie (thanks to bisdelf)
FIXED: Spelling (thanks to InorganicMatter)
FIXED: X264 profile and use of deadzone-intra/inter (thanks to peter_h)
FIXED: Using the preview without filter enabled (thanks to edwardt)
FIXED: Missing parsing of Width parameter for x264 profiles
FIXED: No more need to copy ffmpeg libraries, libsndfile-1.dll or fftw3.dll in \windows\system32. Anyway is always preferred to copy these dll.
FIXED: AutoMKV will wrongly apply TFM/TDecimate on avi input. (thanks to AC84)
FIXED: In 2 pass encoding the default subme for first pass is now 2, look here http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...85#post1035385

FIXED: Erroneus splitting in many and more parts (beta fix)
FIXED: By default the encoding status is no more displayed. This will bring more speed to encoding and if wanted in Advanced profile editing is possible to enable it
FIXED: The deinterlacer status is not displayed. This will bring a more faster analysis and a more secure results.
FIXED: Custom BAT for audio encoding. Now is passed the Destination directory as variable. Look at custom_mp2.bat and custom_besweet.bat in \besweet folder
REMOVED: Vstrip, DVDFabDecrypter
UPDATE: MVTools to 1.8.4, mt_masktools to 2.0 alpha 32, update NicAudio (13/08/2007), PS3.xml and X264 profiles like 1_Pass_High Performance.xml, 2_Pass_Balanced.xml,2_Pass_Better_Quality.xml (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...09#post1035509), XviD profiles,Mktoolnix to 2.1.0, BAutoDeint thanks to Andreas Kuhlen, DGindex 1.5.0b1, xvid_encraw 31/08/2007, MediaInfo 0.7.5.2, ColorMatrix 2.2, FFmpegSource 1.11, dgmpgdec 150b2,x264 r675

0.83: Released 03/05/2007 $\infty$

Added more checks to 'Test Deint' function.
Added QMtrim. QMtrim is a vectorial analysis software based on mvanalyze. When enabled AutoMKV will do one more pass to determine the motion vectors of movie. Using this file QMtrim is able to construct a very complicated trim script with multiple denoisers applied. For more info see here.
Added ability for filters selected to now show in Preview.
Added Edit LVL button to dynamically edit the QMtrim lvl files.
Added ability for Deinterlacer settings to be used in Preview. Leave as AUTO for no deinterlacer preview.
Added ability to trim the project in Preview panel. Click "Trim from here" to set the Trim end. The file will be encoded from start to this frame.
Added In QMtrim options to encode as compression test the full length of the movie.
Added Chapter Editor. Quite goofy and limited... but functional. The text could be also directly added and copy&pasted. Use the DEL and CANC button to delete empty string...
Added some additional checks for QMtrim.
Fixed bug where when working with WMV and FILM type the tdecimate string was not executed after cropping.
Fixed some bugs on iPod profiles.
Fixed bug on selecting "Don't care about file size" where the Width was not set to Original and Resizer to NONE.

Added "Allow Hybrid Order/Pattern" for deinterlacer options on Advanced Setting tab. If unchecked the "partly film", "partly interlaced", and "Hybrid Order" settings will switch to "Film", "Interlaced" and majority order (bff/tff). This feature is added because these kinds of files aren't common, but on short source material the auto-detection feature could fail, and so will set these values. If you know that your source is anime or a poor quality NTSC transfer, check this value. otherwise don't use it.
Added "Test Deint" feature on Advanced Settings. It will manually run the usual deinterlace test, and will report the results. It will also set the deinterlacer pattern.
Fixed some issues on Deinterlace routines.
Added some code optimization.

0.81a: Released 17/04/2007

Every time you add a job to the Queue, the external subtitle choices will be saved and reset (check by opening the queueXXX.ini file). Also, remember that external subtitle are remembered between consecutive one time encoding jobs (when you're not using queue). To erase the selected external subtitles, simply open the external sub window and click Cancel without selecting any files.

Added ability to encode audio to WMA without muxing to WMV (so you can build x264+WMA muxed in MKV). However, remember that neither mkvmerge or mp4box can mux WMA audio!

Added Normalize() to audio avs file.
Added FFmpeg.exe to be used as encoder, if xvid_encraw/x264/wmcmd isn't able to process input file (not on dvd input) FFmpeg will try to encode to desired codec/container/width (not autocrop sorry...). Manual crop will be parsed and applied.
Added Multi Encoder support. If a file named "flv" or "msmpeg4v2" or "mpeg2video" or "rv10" is present in AutoMKV folder then AutoMKV will be force ffmpeg.exe to use these format. This does not work on dvd or avs input.

0.50d Released 03/11/2006

AutoMKV .5x includes new features for the quality oriented who want a crf based HQ encode in 1Pass, yet still want size control. As well, the new features provide those who want a high level of control with expanded features.

Quick start - Choose input and output, Choose Output file size, Choose the CQ-ASP_Q2_eq(crf) profile. Answer "Hit Media size" to the pop-up. In the advanced tab select "Allow multiple autoresize" and start encode (if you want more interaction with quality choose)

AutoMKV will sample the source to identify the level of compressibility. When "Allow multiple autoresize" is checked, the user will be presented with the suggested Resolution, CRF value to be used, and other information. If acceptable, press "No" to redo and the enclode will start. If the resolution and CRF value (crf values < 22 should be good with crf 18 being very good) are not to your liking, simply leave the pop-up as is, go to AutoMKV and add more size, change matrix, add a filter, etc., then Click yes for redo. Process will repeat. When you are comfortable with the values presented, just press no and encode will proceed.

After the crf encode is completed, AutoMKV will trigger the 2nd pass only if the encode size is outside the values in MinSize Maxsize.

FIXED: added sub size to log file
FIXED: lame encoding for second audio track
FIXED: better support for process.exe, no process.exe flash up more
FIXED: on avi source, copy original audio is no more allowed
FIXED: added "last line avs script" to save default
ADDED: log save both audio avs/batch files
ADDED: is now possible to select what CQM use in XivD
ADDED: a simple command line support. Create your setting (video codec, container , media size..)(use "Save Default") and give it a personalized name (es. 24hour.ini)

Create a .bat file (within automkv directory) with this code:

AutoMKV050d.exe 24hour.ini "C:\path\to\24h\test1.vob" 2 2 1 0 start

The "2 2 1 0 start" mean:

2 on first audio track choose second audio present
2 on second audio track choose second audio present
1 on first sub track choose first sub
0 on second sub track choose NONE to sub

Added language translation support. After choosing language (on advanced settings), click on save default and restart AutoMKV. Use automkv.ita as reference. Name the language file to automkv.XXX where XXX is the ISO639-2 code of nation (better, look on advanced settings the code of your language).
Added more accurate crf size prediction with conditional 2nd pass for automatic correction of oversize, undersize. Many high quality encodes will take just 1 pass. The conditional 2nd pass is only activated if size exceeds user set min/max values.
