Headbands GSpot - aktuelle Version des Video-Analyse-Tools

    GSpot 2.51 Beta 02 Build 040828

    Latest Changes:
    ¤ Fixed GUI resize issue with H.264 indicator.
    ¤ Fixed resource leak associated w GSpot render.
    ¤ Fixed attempt to analyze split audio with no audio present, which corrupted some other values & could result in an app crash later.
    ¤ Rewrote the MPEG-2 parsing routines for the interlace & pull-down functions. The previous version had significant design flaws, causing it to display erroneous results.
    ¤ Added native recognition of H.264 video streams and an associated "indicator light". Should recognize H.264 in an AVI (e.g. VideoSoft), in an MPEG-2 Program Stream (e.g. MainConcept), or raw (e.g. ITU reference encoder)
    ¤ "open with" and drag 'n drop should work on Win98 again

    GSpot 2.52 Beta 01 Build 040915

    Last Changes

    Reworked parts of the MPEG-4 parsing routine. It was failing to even identify some files as MPEG-4 altogether, and when it did it sometimes provided erroneous information (the BVOP indicator in particular).

    Build 040912

    ¤ Fixed exception violation ("crash") issues exhibited by, in particular, v2.51b2, which often overran an internal data buffer. The current version has been "road-tested" with over 2000 media files1
    ¤ Added 16:9 anamorphic support (for target and/or source) in the resizing information function. Also added ability to select different target sizes for "AVI" (i.e. 1:1 PAR) targets.

    ¤ Reorganized the GUI layout. See screenshot.

    ¤ Added support for parsing information from the optional MPEG-2 "sequence display extension". When available, the "display" height and width are shown, as well as the color space mapping matrix (which may be useful only to a few video techno-geek users out there ;)

    ¤ Added support for identifying so-called "packed bitstreams", an MPEG-4 construct sometimes used DivX 5.x and other MPEG-4 streams contained in an AVI file. The information is displayed as text in the "container" section; additionally a new indicator labeled "NVOP", as these constructs are informally called, with the other MPEG-4 indicators.

    ¤ Finally "restored" the ability to find the details of the codecs and other filters, as well as the mediatypes involved, when the "MS" (Microsoft DirectShow) render function is used (see Figure 1 below). The word "restored" is in reference to the fact that older v2.21 had similar capability, albeit more limited than the information now available in this version.

    GSpot 2.6 beta ist verfügbar...v2.60 b00 04 Sept 2006

    ● FLV, MP4, DV1/2 & Raw DV support, more...
    ● Significant advanced features for technical users
    ● Includes unique "Visual GOP Structure" (VGS) subsystem - see screenshots
    ● This is a pre-release - not all features are tested or complete yet. It may be of more interest to technical users, although anyone interested should feel free to download & try it. It is not at all difficult to "use" (Basically just "File -> Open"), but much of the new information provided is of a rather technical nature. But it may tell you exactly what you need to know. See next note.
    ● Ironically, some simpler features for casual users, (e.g. "You need to install codec 'X' to play this file...") are not complete yet. And I am aware that, to a large extent, it is those features that have made GSpot as popular as it is).

    OK there's a version b04 already, addresses various things in this thread & others, I'll be back to discuss all the prev stuff, and meanwhile anyone please feel free to post comments on old or new stuff. Can't work or even post much myself for the next few days though, gotta get a bunch of stuff finalized in the next few days for next week's "trade show" related to my day job.

    Meanwhile, I do have an update which I've now designated GSpot v2.60 RC01. Since the app is now officially recommended by Microsoft in their main WMP 11 FAQ, I figured I'd name it something a little less likely to scare off the newbies, so it's no longer a "beta" ;)

    Anyway, on a more interesting level, a new feature is the ability bring up the "third party" property sheets for DirectShow filters that support them.
