DGIndex for AVI's?

Postby Orwell » Mon May 28, 2007 3:47 pm

Does anyone know a program that would allow me to load a large quantity of avi's for fast viewing?

I'm not sure I understand your question.

Do you just want to scan through avi's for scenes or what? Virtualdub is good for that since it lets you seek to keyframes.

Eh, there is virtual dub, but, I think that's going to crash when I load up the entire series of Monster (74 eps).

You can't go through them one at a time?

Maybe set up an avisynth script to combine all 74 eps, and kill the audio and set it to only show like 1 frame per each second of video and print the filename on each frame, then let this render out to a Lagarith file or something. Now you have a file where you can quickly seek through the entire series to find which episode has a certain scene.

wow - not like I'd ever do it, but how would you set up your script? More curious about that than anything...

For my current amv, I ripped 50 eps, made MJPEG.avi copies of all of them, and loaded them into Magix. Set aside the parts I wanted... Bait and Switch... worked real good. The drawback is I had to let Job Control run through the night to make all MJPEG copies [but I do sleep, so that's fine :P]

yup, thats true -- Magix Pro 11 & 12 editors allow up to 99 Videos to be loaded all at once.

If you only have 74 Videos, then you can cut and paste to your hearts desire while building another video in the unused 26 Video and Audio tracks that are not being used.
