confused about youtube,dll

This according to it's website is a small command line program that downloads videos from youtube, and many other sites.
I have no idea what a command line program is?
I use smplayer. It seems that smplayer through mpv uses youtube.dll to stream videos from particular. Does this mean that when i stream a video using smplayer, that the video is downloading as well.

Restoring from 2 videos with different quality into one.

Hi,

I'm having problem restoring an old film from two sources into one good copy. What I have as original is this:

source1.avi:
Code:
Input #0, avi, from 'source1.avi':
  Metadata:
    encoder        : transcode-1.0.2
  Duration: 02:43:35.77, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 1342 kb/s
    Stream #0:0: Video: mpeg4 (Simple Profile) (DIVX / 0x58564944), yuv420p, 720x480 [SAR 1:1 DAR 3:2], 1200 kb/s, 29.97 fps, 29.97 tbr, 29.97 tbn, 30k tbc
    Stream #0:1: Audio: mp3 (U[0][0][0] / 0x0055), 48000 Hz, stereo, s16p, 128 kb/s
source 2.mp4:
Code:
Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from 'Source2.mp4':
  Metadata:
    major_brand    : mp42
    minor_version  : 0
    compatible_brands: isommp42
    creation_time  : 2014-06-22 12:01:40
  Duration: 02:46:11.04, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 1625 kb/s
    Stream #0:0(und): Video: h264 (High) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuv420p, 1200x720 [SAR 1:1 DAR 5:3], 1431 kb/s, 30 fps, 30 tbr, 30 tbn, 60 tbc (default)
    Metadata:
      handler_name    : VideoHandler
    Stream #0:1(und): Audio: aac (LC) (mp4a / 0x6134706D), 44100 Hz, stereo, fltp, 191 kb/s (default)
    Metadata:
      creation_time  : 2014-06-22 12:06:22
      handler_name    : IsoMedia File Produced by Google, 5-11-2011
The end result I want is the video from source2 and audio from source1 into the final version source3.mp4. I'd like to keep the video quality as much as possible on source2.mp4 if it's possible.

I've been trying changing fps on both to match yet still the audio doesn't get synchronised. It varies and is way off at the end of the move.

What steps, in order, should I take and how in order to restore this move? Any help is appreciated. I'm using Linux so any tool you might think is useful for this work, please do not hesitate to advice.

Thanks in advance. Best,
Indy

can't have hardcoded subtitles for Nepalese or Persian video!!

Hi! i worked for years doing subtitles works... and lately, i'm having problems with Nepalese and Persian subtitles... They are perfect in the .srt file that i have... And as external subtitles, they appear perfectly too in Vimeo or Youtube website... The only problems is when i try to encode the video with the subtitles baked in it (hardcoded)... I tried many options (utf-8 etc etc) and many software (handbrake, covertxtodvd, any video converter etc etc) and first i thought they were alright, but the translator guys said it was not. For example, instead of showing अर्थशास्त्र, like it is in the .srt file, or in youtube, they become अर् थ शा स् त् र ... And for the Farsi subtitle (Persian), the order of the words are in reverse...

All my doc (srt, docx, rtf, txt...) show the text perfectly, and it's so easy for youtube or vimeo to make it work too, why the encoding software are not able to do it??

i need to have the videos with the hardcoded subtitles, because we have an offer of downloading the videos (video on demand) and the subtitles can't be downloaded this way...

any ideas, guys?

Best audio from a Youtube HD video

Hi. A few months ago I downloaded a TV show using youtube-dl. After making my edits, I deleted it (regrettably). At the time, I downloaded the best available audio (it being a music show) which was AAC at 254 kbps.

I'm going to download the show again (I missed a scene) but the available streams are as shown in the attachment. No sign of my AAC254. I'm curious about this – does anyone know how youtube works i.e. why the streams would change? Surely, once a video is upped to youtube, that's it...

Am I right in thinking the best audio now available is the opus160k? Thanks for your time.

[DVDLABPRO] How I can work with an animated menu and a static inside cells?

Hi, I saw some DVD's that in cells put a short video and then goes into a static cell without audio, or animation, only one image or several sub-menus as VTS but several cells. The good news is that no problem can create a cell that is the "Static" submenu, putting link, buttons, colors, etc. Now the problem is that when I add a video to another cell, the video is all encompassing and that its duration is less than 10 seconds.

Now as I can solve this problem, so that the video is not all encompassing along with the other cell, if not in the same cell ?.

I await your prompt help. And I hope you understand me .... Sorry my bad english XD


PD: If you can not on the DVD LAB PRO, with PgcEdit as can be done ?.

Why Do Streaming Video Recorders Fail to Record Like They Should?

What do I have to do to download a local copy, preferably an mp4 file, of the full episode now on the www.cnbc.com website of Jay Leno's Garage "Supercars" episode?

I run the Firefox browser latest version on Windows 7 and I have 2 addons to download videos and none of them work for this: VideoDownloadHelper and DownLoadFlashandVideo.

Why are these kinds of addons to unreliable? Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't, and sometimes they work but then stop working later for the same type of videos from the same websites where they used to work?

Looking for a cheap HDMI DVD player that has a working region free hack.

Hi,

I am in the US and am still kinda new to the whole "region free" thing. I have a PC that, thanks to VLC, can play my couple Doctor Who and Torchwood sets that I have in R2 PAL DVD, no problem. I'd still like to be able to play them on my TV. I'm pretty sure that the TV I have will read 50/25 FPS content just fine, as one of my PCs shows 50 Hz as a refresh rate available on it over HDMI (I'm not sure if the component input would be accept it though).

I figure that an HDMI DVD player would make the DVDs look the best, as long as it doesn't introduce the stuttering effect. I have Doctor Who S1 on R1 NTSC DVD as well as R2 PAL DVD, the R2 PAL DVDs look smoother and crisper to me, I'd like to have all Doctor Who at this quality level basically. As for the output resolution, I think an HDMI DVD player would do better at making the picture quality as good as possible than the TV I have.

I have heard of the Samsung DVD-C500, it seems inexpensive enough, and there are people on the hack pages that say the hack works. The major drawbacks I see are that people on Amazon seem to say the unit is very loud and has a tendency to break down. I don't watch stuff on disc all that often, especially DVD as I tend to rip those. I just like the idea of being able to play the DVD as a DVD sometimes and not have to fiddle with my computer to do so.

Anyone with any better options than the Samsung DVD-C500, let me know.

Recording with Livestreamer: How to auto-resume?

June 18, 2016, 7:59 pm

I make frequent use of Livestreamer to record various streams, but in the end it's a command line app, and if the stream gets interrupted for whatever reason - excessive packet loss, the stream legitimately breaks for a second, etc. - VLC closes and that's the end of that. In order to maintain the recording, I have to be present to catch these lapses and manually baby everything. Sometimes, I'm simply not available to take care of those occurrences, and in such cases, I am out of luck.

Since this is pretty inconvenient, I strongly suspect there's a good and convenient solution. Literally all I want is for the recording to resume as soon as it can find the stream again. Still, Google hasn't helped me with this, so I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks.

Hello.

I use coustom settings and use avg bitrate (3580) and 2-pass encoding. Was told to ckeck turbo first pass.

My two questions are.

If i don`t use turbo first pass, will the encode time be much longer then if i do? Know it take a long time With 2-pass but With or without turbo checked will there be much difference?

I want quality first, will buy a coustom pc for this work. So if i don`t use turbo first pass will the quality be better? If turbo cuts the encode time and With no loss of quality then i will check turbo first pass

Please help me out here, searched and found nothing that say it clearly like i asked.

Thanks. :D

On a winTouchscreen with 1024x768@60hz I would like to achieve max compression while retaining 720p streamed video quality (screen is just under 720p resolution).

What setting do I use.
I tried Vbr and constant rate and even a fixed bitrate but they all come out 6500kb when I like some of 500-600 (streamed videos come at 1200kb h264 and hevc should half that ... )

Really has been driving me crazy in avidemux and staxrip.
