ASF Multiplexer beta-testing is needed

[darkman]

There is an alfa version of SolveigMM ASF Multiplexer that is needed to be tested.

http://www.solveigmm.com/files/SMMASF_2005_03_28.zip

 

The muxer allows the user to multiplex any pre-compressed or raw audio/video streams (DIVX, H264,MPEG-2,WM, etc.).

 

It takes to the input a video stream as framed structure (i.e. one DirectShow Sample has to contain an integer number of Video frames).

Such a video structure is supported by most video encoders.

 

Input audio/video samples has to have valid time stamps.

 

As for H264, it only operates for the present with Moonlight H264 Encoder. In spite of Encoder mediatype the muxer wtites to an ASF file a mediatype with fourcc - AVC1.

 

For operating SolveigMM ASF Muxer the Windows Media Format 9.0 Runtime has to be set up.

 

There are DirectShow graph types the muxer can be tested within:

 

File Source-> AVI Splitter [DivX]-> SolveigMM ASF Multiplexer

____________________[AC3]->

 

File Source-> MPEG2 Demuxer->MPEG2 Decoder->Moonlight H264 Encoder-> SolveigMM ASF Multiplexer

__________________________[MPEG1]->-------------------------------------->

 

etc...

 

Any suggestions,notes, bug reports are really appreciated.

There is a new version being tested of SolveigMM ASF Multiplexer.

http://www.solveigmm.com/files/SMMASF_2005_04_06.zip

 

It has been improved operating with MPEG2 and H264 streams.

 

Since there is still no an official mediasubtype for H264, the multiplexer allows an user to set mode - "Treat input video as H264" and disregarding an input subtype set one with own fourcc (AVC1,H264,X264,VSSH, etc). It is necessary to use it with various H264 decoder/encoders.

The new muxer verion being tested is available (2005.04.21)

http://www.solveigmm.com/files/SMMASF_2005_04_21.zip

 

there have been fixed some bugs, including

 

quote:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

x264 in avi,connect avi splitter stream00 to SMM multiplxer,if check "treat input as H264",ther result asf file can't play with mpc,if uncheck it,output asf can play with mpc.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

There is no more restriction for a video to be frame based for H264 and MPEG-2. The muxer is able to receive H264 and MPEG-2 as a bitstream.

 

This feature permits to use the muxer with MPEG-2 TS/PS demuxers directly.

 

f.e.

Src (MPEG-2 )->MPEG-2 dmx [vid] -> ASF Muxer
