Version History of VirtualDub 1.4.6 [features added]
Enhanced error concealment in MPEG-1 video decoder
to reduce picture spew on errors (NOT THE PARSER).
\"Drop frames when behind\" can now drop frames before
the decoder. This helps with Huffyuv playback.
Capture-mode noise reduction now works with UYVY
video as well.
[bug fixes]
Fixed that blasted Audio Interleaving bug I introduced
in V1.4.5.
Added sample skip support for audio converter and
amplifier filters, to prevent long delays when using
subsets with them.
\'Save WAV\' now truncates the file if the file you\'re
saving over is bigger than the new data it\'s being
replaced with.
Fixed frame output display not updating when attempting
to display same frame after changing filters.
Fixed audio interleaving dropping out after a preview.
Read errors no longer appear interactively, blocking
batch operations.
Attempting to shift in capture mode from \'preview with
histogram\' to overlay mode no longer switches to
preview mode instead.
Fixed problem with hardware accelerated preview in
capture mode with some ATI video cards.
No more of \"1057%% complete\" in Job Control.
Changed some of the more embarrassingly bad error
messages.
About:
VirtualDub is a video capture/processing utility for 32-bit Windows platforms (95/98/ME/NT4/2000/XP), licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). It lacks the editing power of a general-purpose editor such as Adobe Premiere, but is streamlined for fast linear operations over video. It has batch-processing capabilities for processing large numbers of files and can be extended with third-party video filters. VirtualDub is mainly geared toward processing AVI files, although it can read (not write) MPEG-1 and also handle sets of BMP images.
