H264/AVC frame accurate editing (AVCHD/MOV/MP4/MKV) of SolveigMM

Hi Guys, we've just released SolveigMM Video Splitter 3 with support of frame acuracy editing of h264 video (in addition to MPEG-2 and Windows Media)

http://www.solveigmm.com/en/products/video-splitter/

It would be grate to have a feedback / suggestions or bug reports.

- New and improved interface
- MOV/MKV/MP4/AVCHD formats frame accurate trimming and joining
- Thumbnails on timeline feature
- Time format switching (time and frame\ time)
- Now it is possible to set markers within a frame (it is useful in case one frame is too long - 1 minute or so)




We'll post here a demo key shortly.

Interface:

I like the interface the storyboard is nice, and you find fast your way without reading the manual how to use it getting the idea of fragments (the batch functionality) and the slider, markers very nicely layed out (also the time zoom function) very different to what all the Chinese All in one Converter Studios and Splitters do
Also from a Design Point it looks more Windows like then in comparison Avidemux QTs framework (though that says nothing about efficiency,robustness and quality) or i guess you could also make the compare with VideoRedos Interface which isn't so nice (also 1 very big plus you don't brake the editing flow with different editing modes but allow anything in 1 task)

So for the Interface a clear 1

Engine (Dshow based):

As expected to reach frame accuracy it uses Smart Rencode with Elecards H.264 Encoder hehe i missed that Elecard logo though you have overwrite capabilities of decoder and encoder decisions it seems this makes it also very unique as the Preview can be accelerated either via DXVA native/copy back or Quicksync
The Preview of H.264 is by default done with the Elecard Decoder, parser/muxer <- (here most of the issues will come from) in the backend are all Solveigs own ones as expected

VideoRedo Smart Reencode = Mainconcept
SolveigMM Smart Reencode = Elecard

PS: Dimtry your Introduction Video cant bee seen here in Germany (its blocked) as the GEMA didn't bought the rights for the Music used in it in Germany (YoutubeID @ least marks it as such)

.works here (win7 64), seems to do the job.

.There seems to be some Elecard logo issues.
.The editing gui is (at least) two pane (player, recorder) and nothing will change that, not even fcp x.
.The colors in gui should be really pale (if unsure what that means: don't use colors), video must stay in center focus all the time.

Ulf, could you make log files to determine the problem?

Use this instruction: How can I record log files

Hi Cruncher,
Thank you for good opinion. To make a right stoybord was a really challenge
BTW - didn't know that Redo uses MC.


>>that Elecard logo
Tha's not a bug, that's restrictions of evaluation version. After registration - no logos, neither in preview nor in transcoded parts.

>>The Preview of H.264 is by default done with the Elecard Decoder, parser/muxer <-
Not for all AVC formats

>>PS: Dimtry your Introduction Video cant bee seen here in Germany (its blocked) as the GEMA didn't bought the rights for the Music used in it in Germany (YoutubeID @ least marks it as such)

Yeah, I know, I also can't watch it.
We are changing audio layout there.

Hi smok3,
Thanks. Logos is trial restrictions.

>>The editing gui is (at least) two pane (player, recorder) and nothing will change that, not even fcp x.

Could please you explain this point in more detail?

>>The colors in gui should be really pale (if unsure what that means: don't use colors), video must stay in center focus all the time.

Well, may be it makes sense to add some color sets.

No need. I found the problem. After uninstalling MysticThumbs it works. MysticThumbs is a software that generates thumbnails of many image formats not natively supported by Windows. Seems to interfere with SolveigMM Video Splitter 3.

Correction:
It had noting to with MysticThumbs - just a coincidence that SolveigMM worked after uninstalling MysticThumbs. I have a system with an Optimus NVIDIA hybrid graphics card. In the NVIDIA Control Panel I set the preferred graphics processor to "Integrated graphics" and SolveigMM works again. I did the same for Subtitle Workshop and finally I got the movie preview window to work.

Editing is always partially picture comparison and single window editor will mostly make that more difficult (even something that may be seen as strictly technical goes into the same basket imho).

One could improve on that with some simple addons as well : "view X-comp" and "EE" buttons on the record side.
X-comp - shows 50:50 recorder and player frame for the time that button is pressed.
EE - shows player frame in record window for the time that button is pressed (fast switching must be possible). That is old fashioned tape to tape standard.

(I'am amazed there is no nle that would offer this two)

When one picks the START/END frames, are they included in the cut or not?
Smart rendering occurs up to I-frames or IDR-frames (important for DVB-S2 streams, and why not, for older PCs)?
Are all streams (say TXT, DVB-subtitles) kept and processed?
What about variable delays, so often found in SAT recordings (main features has an audio delay, the commercials another), are they accounted for?

Sorry for these questions, I know that I can download the trial and do myself this, but I don't install trials PER DEFINITION on my working PC.

Found a bug: When typing in the end time of the scene that you want to split, on the right counter if you type in the number 3 and anything above 3 (4, 5, 6 etc) for milliseconds (example: 00:11:26;30) it causes the whole timer to jump up one second (so if I type in the previous example, the timer jumps to 00:11:27;00 instead of staying at 00:11:26;30). However if you type in the number for 1 or 2 for the milliseconds it works (00:11:27;20). So this must be a bug as I am not able to accurately put in the end split time I want into the timer. This happened with any video format.

Agree. But at the moment we don't alter picture, no effects appliable.

Hi Folks,
sorry for delayed answers.

andybkma, that's not a bug, because format is h:min:sec;frame, so the latest digits are frames.

You can also change it to h:min:sec,millisec, but then you'll see 3 digits in this field

Ok, I understand the idea that you need to preview somewhere a possible editing result before you start it's rendering. We'll do such a feature but probable in the same window, it is necessary to think about. But in any way, we are going to make version 4, with ability to work at the same timeline with multiple files (now only one file in timeline depicted).

Hi Ghitulescu,
Sorry also for delayed answer.

>When one picks the START/END frames, are they included in the cut or not?
Should be included

>>Smart rendering occurs up to I-frames or IDR-frames (important for DVB-S2 streams, and why not, for older PCs)?
Good question, actually IDR can be meet in an input stream very seldom, so at the cue-points we re-make IDR (something like that, can't tell you full details)

>>Are all streams (say TXT, DVB-subtitles) kept and processed?
Not yet

>>What about variable delays, so often found in SAT recordings (main features has an audio delay, the commercials another), are they accounted for?
Not yet, but in our to-do list.

>>Sorry for these questions, I know that I can download the trial and do myself this, but I don't install trials PER DEFINITION on my working PC.
If you want, we'll send you a key for evaluation.

It seems at this stage it is easier to give evaluation keys. Please let me know who have an interest. We need name, surname, email and company (optional), can be sent to PM.
