This may have aready been covered, but is there a way that I can keep te 6 channel audio during the enoding process? I'm using Automen to re-encode some Blu-ray and HDDVD files I have, and always the finished movie only has two audio channels, even though the original source has 6.
Could someone please help? |

automen will autoresize to correct proportion, regardless of no resize requested
for a pure NON resize, set ORIGINAL in Video Resize, then in advanced settings, set all crop values to 0, and write in height the correct height BHH

Been using this program for a long time and now i have a problem.
When using the mp4 option, everything goes exactly as it should. However, when the result file is created, it just dissappears. Gone. I have no idea why this is happening, and it doesnt happen with any other encodes by the program, just the mp4's. Any ideas ppl? Im using Vista btw, which may be the prob i guess |

When you make use of AutoMEN as GUI, it actually first create a batch file (look for a file with the extension .bat in the same folder as you have set to create your intermediate files which are given name ending with "automen" - all batch file can be open with notepad.exe -standard windows text editor- don't double click it as that will run the batch file, only mark and use right click on mouse to bring up option/commands for how to open this file, pick "edit" in the list). When you have opened your batch file you will see each step in the processing of your file. It might be that the last step which involve mp4box.exe (=>MP4 muxer; to create an MP4 container which is then filled with audio and video from those step earlier) is corrupt in some way. YAMB which is a GUI for MP4box.exe can also be used as long as AutoMEN let MENcoder create an AVI with desired encoder from MENcoder (can be x264 encoder options (command start with -x264encopts) or xvid (command start with -xvidencopts) for video in MP4 and FAAC (command -faacopts) to create AAC audio, then make use of MPlayer to demux both audio and video stream from AVI container. With YAMB it is a rather easy process to use AVI container (no need to remux audio and video as individual streams; raw) and the documents for YAMB explains it rather good. You can also find link to GPAC project which should give you a better understanding for how to set commands in MP4box.exe. Commands and setting for MPlayer and MENcoder. This link help you to understand what is going on in your batch file. To save some time, read up on how you can use -nosound or -copy during transcoding. If nothing of all that I wrote above will be of any help, then you must post your batch file here and explain your steps more accurate as it is impossible to think of what could make your file disappear. You should also be able to see how the process are running from a command window in the background (this might depend on how you have set command window to operate in general), so you can see what is happening from you start your batch file until the last step where you have your MP4 file. Found out that YAMB author haven't added how to use mp4box.exe on his site, so here you have the link to GPAC which give a more complete set of setting for mp4box.

Hi folks,
I always have a such a difficult time finding a download for mencoder.exe / mplayer.exe / mp4box.exe When I go to the website that is MPlayer home page or the OSS-NetFarm ... I never know which download I need ... confusing as heck. Is there a URL that points in a "dummy-proof" way to a MEncoder.exe and MPlayer and so forth! Thanks, G! |

I really like this one!
Hi,
I think the UI implementation you have for AutoMen is BRILLIANT! I would like to review it in my software review site: www.freewaregenius.com (6000 visitors+ per day). However, for some reason in my conversions the colors are completely off. (I tried a couple of Xvid settings including 2-pass Slow). Also, how do I choose an MP4 container? I am assuming there is a way? Thanks! |

@kurdi
Hi kurdi , thanks for your kind words! Quote:
may i suggest to update your ffdshow/media player classic or use the excellent SMPlayer automen is for simplicity and automation.. so .. container is bound to codec.. xvid=avi, x264=mp4 no possible (actually) to change it BHH

Xvid conversion screwy colors
buzzqw,
I am using The KMplayer I do not think it is a player issue, as I noticed that the colors on the converted video are just fine if I do not resize, but get messed up when I resize (to a larger size). The video I was converting is 700 megs, but I cut a 100 meg chunk and uploaded it here. http://www.divshare.com/download/5686650-dde Thanks. |
