It is very stable now. Long time coming! My only quibble is I wish they had implemented automatic detection of interlaced patterns like in the excellent AutoMKV or AutoGK, if the source DVD is pure interlaced or a hybrid etc. There are generous filters to do anything in Avidemux, I understand avisynth ports and the average user will know how to denoise or resize or autocrop, but deinterlacing is a much 'different kettle of fish' as they say and needs extra care or Joe Blogs will destroy his video source. Moreover if it is a DVD(interlaced) one should leave it as such and let the hardware doing the deinterlacing, but for streaming etc or transcoding to h264 auto detection of the correct patterns in the prior DVD analysis would be nice. I've seen many PAL R2 DVDs with hybrid patterns. AutoMKV does the best job of this I've ever seen in a tool. HDConverttoX its upgrade fails miserably in this respect of auto detection and the developer adds in the guide that it does not work. Also in avidemux the denoise section would benefit from a remove dirt/remove grain filter, the ones present cannot remove floating black dirt specks on unscanned DVD sources. Despite my moaning a little a great video editor, but only if you know what you are doing. Luckily I do. |
