What's new in Version 4 with H.264:
This version is designed to seamlessly handle both MPEG2 and H.264 encoded files. H.264 is also called AVC and AVCHD. Technically, we support the following H.264 formats:
Input formats:
* Transport streams with H.264/AVC video with the following audio codecs: MPEG Layer 2, AC-3, AAC and AAC-HE.
* MP4 formatted files with H.264/AVC video with AAC and AAC-HE audio. This includes Apple MOV files, and some camera formats.
* Video dimensions up to 1920x1080p at chroma 4:2:0.
* WTV streams support is preliminary (see below).
* All the traditional MPEG2 formats supported in earlier versions.
Output formats:
* MPEG2, program, transport and dvr-ms streams with MPEG and AC-3 audio.
* H.264 transport streams with MPEG Layer 2 and AAC audio. AC3 and AAC-HE audio is supported if they are present in the source file.
* H.264 .MP4 files with MPEG Layer 2 and AAC audio. AAC-HE audio is suported if present in the source file.
* WMV/VC1 output.
* MPEG-4 Part 2 .mp4 files.
* Elementary streams.
* NTSC closed captioning and DVB subtitling, if present in the source, is preseved in the output file.
Smart editing:
* If source and destination formats have identical formats, dimensions and bit rates, TVSuite V4 will automatically invoke its smart editing feature and not recode your source video except for a few frames at cut points. This is the traditional behavior you expected from VideoReDo in the past.
Output Profiles:
* The output format is determined by a list of file types, called profiles, in the file save box. The product comes with quite a few profiles which can serve as a starting point. You can create your own profiles, exchange profiles with other users using the import and export mechanism. There will be more on profiles in a separate post.

Movie Factory compatibility is now 'OFF' by default.
Better detect and handle audio bit rate changes in the middle of a program.
'Queue to Batch' will prompt you for a filename.
VideoReDo handles the request for trial keys internally.
Font Size reduced in the batch command window.
Fixes:
When opening an MPEG stream search further into a file to find the first packet.
Trim and copy source file would limit output to 5GB.
File opens could take a VERY long time if the sequence header was missing from GOPs.
Double click on item in the Cut List Box and Scene Mode Selected, would jump to next GOP start rather than exact frame.
QuickStream Fix wasn't adding missing sequence headers to GOP.
Round off error in 3:2 pulldown would cause drifting sync when 3:2 pulldown burned to DVD.
Bit rates are reported as multiple of 1,000,00 NOT 1,048,576 (1024 ^ 2 ).
Joiner would fail if 3 or more files where joined and they used LPCM audio.
Manual changes to the bit rate and aspect ratio were not being passed to the MPEG encoder.
Use most current sequence header when encoding. Fixes issue where aspect ratio changes in the middle of a program.
Improved QuickStream Fix opening of file with discontinuities in the PTS.
3:2 pulldown timing wasn't being calculated properly on the last GOP of segment.
Better handling of files with PTS discontinuities.
Dragging fine tune slider with the right mouse button would cause a stutter.
Very short cuts at the end of the file would not display 'Red' background on navigation bar.
Last GOP of a segment could have wrong PTS if GOP included the actual EOF.
If you navigated past 6.63 hours, audio would not play. Did not affect actual editing.
Repeated presses of the 'End' key would temporarily show extra digit in the current time.
Version 1-6-0-243, Release date: July 7, 2004
Enhancements:
Much improved memory efficiency. This version will use about 1/2 the memory of previous releases.
New option on the tools menu, QuickStream Fix. This option will re-multiplex a program stream file re-computing all internal time stamps such as PTS and GOP values. It is especially useful if you are having problems editing a VOB file extracted from a DVD.
Ability to Batch edits and projects for processing at a later time. The batch processor is invoked from the Tools menu. You can load multiple project files and then output them in a batch. You can also queue the current edits via the File menu (or CTRL+B) directly to the batch processor.
Pressing the TAB key will jump the cursor to the next cut point. Shift-Tab to the previous cut point.
Optional on-screen display of the frame type (I, P or B). Enabled from the Tools menu.
VideoReDo will provide a default filename when saving video or project files.
Much improved handling of VOB files that have non-contiguous time stamps.
Much improved handling of files that employ 3:2 pull down material.
Support for PVA stream. You can now open PVA streams directly in VideoReDo, edit them and output them as program streams.
Display of input and output file positions in MBytes. This display will show you where in the file you are and how large the output file will be when saved. (Note, output file size if approximate).
If you have unsaved edits, an '*' will be to the window title.
Dragging the fine tune slider with the right mouse button will yield very high accuracy movement.
Elementary stream output will use different file types for the audio stream to match the audio codec used by the input program. LPCM audio will be saved to .WAV, MPEG2 audio to .MPA, and AC3 audio to .AC3 files.
You can output your edits to elementary streams, by default, using a new checkbox on the Tools>Options>General page.
VideoReDo is now COM enabled. This feature allows VideoReDo to be controlled by other programs or script languages. For additional information please contact support@videoredo.com.
Changes:
Product name has been changed from VideoReDo to VideoReDo/QuickEdit.
Added 'Save As' button to the main screen.
Added 'Ctrl+P' keyboard shortcut to the edits to the current project file.
Tools > Options > Advanced Stream, now has presets for DVD and SVCD packet lengths.
Project file, VideoReDo.VPrj is automatically created, in the log file folder, whenever you save a video.
VideoReDo will now default to Frame Accurate editing upon installation. Previous versions defaulted to GOP accurate editing.
Much improved internal timing algorithms for NTSC material resulting in improved audio / video synchronization.
Much improved I-Frame navigation both forward and backward.
Additional information in the log file, especially when the debug option is checked on Tools > Options > Advanced Stream.
Shift and control modifier keys act as divisors rather than multiplier with the lower slider. This results in the ability to more accurately navigate the video. For example, if the shift multiplier is 2 and the lower slider range is 120 seconds. Holding down the shift with the lower slider will change the range to 60 seconds.
VideoReDo will detect if the user tries to open a transport stream and issue an appropriate warning message.
Tools>Trim and Copy source file is much more accurate when using selection markers. VideoReDo now keeps track of file positions in bytes of all cuts.
Option added to double the size of the internal video buffer from 4.5 seconds to 9 seconds. This is useful for DVB, Tivo and Replay captured material where the GOPs can be very long > 50 frames. It is also useful if the there are significant loses of audio and the resync algorithm needs a larger buffer to find a resynchronization point. Note, this option originally used a great deal of memory, perhaps as much as 100 MB, but with the new memory logic recently implemented you might want to try leaving this on by default.
Better trapping and reporting of corrupt MPEG2 picture headers.
Fixes:
Fixed random program crashes and memory allocation errors caused by license manager.
Memory leak in the MPEG2 encoder caused memory usage to grow over time.
Problem with seeking to the correct GOP is more than 50 frames in a GOP.
Joiner Dialog, the 'Clear All' button was the default rather than the 'OK' button.
Zero length cuts could be created at the beginning or end of the file.
Frame advance by multiple seconds (or minutes) would result in multiple rounding errors. For example, advance by 2 minutes multiple times and then go backward by 2 minutes the same number of times would not return to the same location.
MPEG2 decoder would use memory that was previously released causing intermittent random behavior.
Delete temporary files after output. Previous versions didn't delete the temporary files until the next time VideoReDo was restarted.
GOP accurate output could cause a 'ring buffer overflow'
MPEG2 encoder didn't flush partial bits at end of decode causing gray box in lower right corner of last encoded frame of cut.
Pressing 'S' & 'E' keys will now jump to the correct frame. Previous versions would sometimes jump to one frame off.
Always display 1st frame of file when opened. Previous versions might display one of the first 4 frames.
Back by single frame works better when cursor is at the end of the file.
If first video frame of a file didn't have a timestamp, VideoReDo would throw an exception.
Elementary stream output was writing a random value into the last byte of the video file instead of the proper value of an MPEG2 'Sequence_end_code'.
Multiple AC3 streams in the file would cause exceptions. VideoReDo will now 'latch' unto the first AC3 stream it encounters. When ripping VOBs from DVD with multiple streams we recommend you try to include only a single AC3 stream in the output file.
VideoReDo wasn't honoring the output packet length in the Tools > Options > Advanced Stream.
New PES demuxing logic to better handle multiple frames in a single PES packet.
Version 1-5-5-221, Release date: April 14, 2004
Enhancements:
VideoReDo can automatically check the website for an updated release. There is a new options screen Tools>Options>Start Up from which you can specify how frequently VideoReDo should check for an updated release. You can also specify whether VideoReDo should first ask for permission to do so. A manual check is provided as a feature on the Help menu as well.
If you simultaneously drag multiple files from the Windows Explorer into VideoReDo it will add the entire list to the joiner. The files be sorted by filename, case insensitive. You can change the file order using the ordering features of the joiner edit box.
The last two digits of the time display can show either frame number or hundredths of seconds. This option is enabled via a check box on the Tools>Options>General dialog.
There are two new options to speed up the marking of cuts / scenes. Both of these options are set on the Tools>Options>General dialog. If “Enable One-Click Selection” is checked, the Sel-Start/Sel-End button labels change to Mark-In / Mark-Out, and when you click on Mark-Out and if the cursor is to the right of the Mark-In marker, the selection is automatically made for you. You do not need to click on Cut Selection or Add Selection button. The second option, “Auto Replace Overlapping Cuts”, will cause new cuts to automatically replace an existing cuts that overlap the new cut saving you the trouble of selecting this option from the dialog . This option is very useful when editing existing cuts.
VideoReDo can directly output elementary streams by selecting Elem. Streams in the “File Type” box in the file save dialog. This works for both saving a program directly or saving from the joiner.
Added the ability to change the MPEG2 aspect ratio and bit rate. These options are accessed from the “Options” button on the file save dialog. Note, they only change the bits in the MPEG2 header. They do not change the actual aspect ratio or bit rates.
VideoReDo will now separately remember the last directories used for file opens and file saves. This facilitates those users who store source material in one folder and edits in another. If you want to quickly switch the file save directory to the source file directory, you can always click on the top entry in the “Recent Folders” combo box.
A new option in Tools>Options>Advanced Stream, “Skip Encoder Conformity Checks” has been added. This will permit VideoReDo MPEG2 encoder to handle streams that might be outside of the standard MPEG2 Main Profile. This can happen if the video dimensions or bit rates exceed the allowable standard. Although VideoReDo will now handle these files, you should be careful using these streams with software and/or hardware that expects MPEG2 compliant streams.
VideoReDo will display the actual average video bit rate in the Output Complete dialog.
Changes:
In prior releases, when first opening a file, VideoReDo would check the first 10,000 bytes looking for an MPEG2 packet signature. Now, VideoReDo will check the first 100,00 bytes. This will permit you to open an SVCD file which has an ~80KB file header before the MPEG2 program stream begins.
In prior releases, the code to warn the user about an excessive number of audio frame errors wasn’t working properly. This was fixed in, but the default number of acceptable errors which was 20 was often too low. The new default is now 32,000 which effectively disables this feature except in the presence of a mostly corrupt audio stream.
If you press Add Selection or Cut Selection button and the exact selection has already been made, VideoReDo will no longer ask you if you want to override the cut.
The Audio and Video Packet counts have been removed from the Output Complete dialog as they served no useful purpose for end-users. If you are interested in them, they still appear in the log file.
Increased the maximum allowable video packet size from 32Kbytes to 64Kbytes. This permits VideoReDo to be used with streams generated by Replay.
Added new option “Start Packet Data On Word Boundary” to Tools>Options>Advanced Stream Parameters. This option is required if streams are to be played on the Nebula DigiTV software player.
Further testing indicates that DVDLab does NOT require the use of DVDLab’s alternative multiplexer. Exporting VideoReDo output as elementary streams will speed up the import of streams into DVDLab.
Some DVB capture cards / software will output extraneous bytes at the end of some video packets. VideoReDo will now detect and remove this extraneous data.
VideoReDo will now display properly on systems configured for 120 dpi fonts. In previous releases all the controls would be misplaced and the overall window would be too large to fit on an 800 x 600 screen.
Video would not display during movement by top slider until the slider was released.
Log file now show original time stamps in readable (hh:mm:ss.ff) format.
VideoReDo will support files with LPCM (uncompressed) audio.
VideoRedo will handle file encoded with 3:2 pulldown. Additional synchronization problems with 3:2 pulldown were fixed in build.
Beyond TV (SnapStream) project files can be opened using drag and drop.
Fixes:
The manual audio synchronization adjustment was saved with the project file, but wasn’t being properly loaded when a project was opened.
If the PTS timestamps in a file were severely corrupt, moving back by one frame would sometimes get stuck. VideoReDo will now detect this and search for the actual previous frame.If there are lots of missing frames, this process can take a second or two causing VideoReDo’s navigation to appear sluggish.
If the first audio packet of the file contains a bad audio header, VideoReDo will skip past it until it finds a valid header. In prior releases this first bad audio header would prevent the file from opening.
The default setting for the arrow keys were not being set correctly when VideoReDo was first installed.
VideoReDo will no longer occasionally drop one to three frames from the end of an output segment.
VideoReDo will flush its remaining audio and video buffers at the end of an output segment. Prior releases did not do this properly causing a few msec of lost audio at the end of a segment and/or a partially rendered frame.
Issue warning message that change of edit mode (cut / scene mode) will not take effect until the next file is opened.
Jumping to End of File by pressing the “End” key would display the next to last frame. It will now display the correct frame.
VideoReDo will now properly handle files where timestamps wrap around to zero. This situation is sometimes encountered when capturing from DVB broadcasts where the timestamp clock isn’t reset between programs.
VideoReDo would crash if a screensaver started while VideoRedo was open.
Audio sound was choppy if recorded in Mono. VideoReDo will properly playback Mono sound.
Frame Accurate editing would create pixelated frames if the first two frames of a GOP where not B-Frames.
Occasional sync error if VideoReDo edited a file previously edited by VideoRedo.
Video ring buffer overflow in frame accurate output if an output segment started with multiple video frames in a single video packet.
If VideoReDo was playing, repeated PageUp/PageDn presses didn’t update navigation cursor until the key was released.
Improved handling of overlapping selections. Previous versions could leave an extra selection on the cut/scene list.
Ring Buffer Overflow if using GOPS of more than 30 frames. VideoReDo can now handle extremely large GOP sizes.
VideoReDo would crash if using 5.1 channel AC3 audio and the audio output was set to WAV (202).
VideoReDo will properly position the slider to the start and/or end of file. In previous versions the slider might be off by one frame.
Version 1-5-0-200, Release date: February 24, 2004
Initial public release of VideoReDo.
The external URL links in the help file will not always invoke your current default browser. When you click on an external link in the VideoReDo help file, a new browser window is started. In some cases, it defaults to an Windows Internet Explorer window even though you have a different default browser.
If you change the background graphic (from the General Parameters options page), the background area of the controls will not be updated until you restart VideoReDo.
If you try to cut the first frame of a video, and you are in GOP mode editing, VideoReDo may accidentally write the first GOP to the output file. Switching to Frame Accurate on the Tools > Options > General Parameters page will fix this problem. VideoReDo defaults to GOP mode editing upon installation, so this parameter should be set immediately.
