Damn :( Why is the order of my single Videos wrong? I copied one Video after the other. From part 1 to 9. But the order is still completely wrong.
 
why do you want a specific framerate?
Lets always keep it up to the user. I don't want a specific framerate, just wanna name some values for the guys that have problems. If your source videos have a framerate that can be used, it's good for you ;) Some raw materials have framerates of 40 fps and more - that wont work.

good idea for test file! but 3mn seems too long
That's your opinion. :P Ffmpeg is not able to grab directly a mid part of a video without loosing audio-synch so it has to be a part of the beginning. In many movies the prelude is a bit longer than 2 minutes so I've chosen 3 to get the ability of hearing a dialogue too. 3 minutes instead of a whole 120 minutes movie is quite a good alternative. I find you dont really need a testfile for a 6 minute video but here you are: In this version 1.21 you can choose the length of the testfile

is it possible to have the ffmpeg command of the new version? to see if i can do something more and if you allow me... thx again for all your work
It's not only one command. It's one commandline for every side plus one commandline that merges both sides plus several commandlines that split the videos into 10 min parts. and all video types uses different commandlines for the sides as well :blink: You can open the source.ahk with a text editor, there you can find all the commands easily.

Try to drop it on the folder instead of droping it into the opened window of the folder. I hope that'll help.

what i want to explain is that coulb be cool to have an option to desactivate framerate... letting original framerate generate more fluid video
ok for 3mns ... its good for movies but the 90% of 3D videos are not movies and with short length ... thanks for option in 1.21
i know that is more than one line command... thx i 'm just looking for link of code source...found the source.ahk.. i'm actually building an app speceficly for my own 3D videos

i still cant convert 4:3 videos in 100% side by side... do you?
sorry if my english can confuse you

Some background:
The simple mode already uses the original framerate to a max. of 24 fps but I let the program cut off the decimal places, because ffmpeg just gives out a rounded framerate with 2 decimal places.
For example: If the original video has 23.975 fps, ffmpeg says its 23.98 fps. Unfortunately a direct conversion won't work with 23.98 so I let the program round it down to 23.

Some improvement:
Now that we've made hundreads of testfiles, I think we all can say that everything will be fine by using framerates up to 30 fps.
So what i can do is to really deactivate the specific designation of the framerate of the simple mode till it's less than or equal to 30 fps.
But don't forget: If ffmpeg cant handle the quality scale and theres no specific framerate named, it will drop the frames first instead of lowering the bitrate.

can i convert red-cyan videos using this?

Nope. So far we have not found a way to separate the colour channels using ffmpeg, it might be possible in the future, but it would require extra tools to get the job done.
Assuming that the 2 video streams are seperated by R & GB.. (in most videos it's not the case)
 
Can someone help me, I'm trying to convert a 27 gig video and it manages to finish the left.avi and right.avi but 3ds video freezes on me and doesn't finish merging/spliting. Is there a way I can merge these without starting the whole thing over again (takes like 10 hours on my shitty old computer)
 
27 gig video? :blink: either that is VERY long or extremely high quality (in fact, at that size it's probably both). You might want to transcode the video to a lower quality first, before running it through this app. Bear in mind that the 3DS max resolution is pretty low etc., so you wouldn't see the majority of the quality anyway.

But yeah you could merge them manually using the original commands from spinal_cord and ffmpeg. then you can split them manually. but if it's a long video, it'll take a while and be quite a pain.

I converted many movies of that size without problems. If you didnt convert anything else after that file, there must be a psize.txt in your windows temp folder. Please upload it to mediafire.com and post the link here.

Otherwise this program can help you out:
http://www.mediafire.com/?j6c87y3dddafi76
Just copy left.avi & right.avi into the "Copy_left.avi_& _right.avi_into_this_folder"-folder and double click on the start_me.exe.
A DOS-window will pop up to inform you about the conversion-progress.
 
I'm not sure if I'm stupid or if the software is broken.

I'm trying to add convert an .avi file. It's 300MB, and 45 minutes long. The 'Final Video' bar is all the way to right, and it's not using up my CPU any more. The 'VID_001' is in D :\DCIM\100NIN03. But the software is still just hanging, the 'Convert' video is greyed out and I haven't gotten any confirmation of completion.

Wat do?

(Also, I'm using 3DS Video v1.00 on Windows XP 32bit.)

truthfully i have done a lot of the movies that were from blurays and the size were close to that if not more sometimes. it does work it just takes forever, it even once or twice said it was not responding but it will eventually do it. doing it overnight helps. because in the end the video can come out pretty good.

Replying to myself here.

So I read a bit more of the thread, and apparently 10 min videos are the max that can be done? So downloaded v1.3 and tried to create a 120sec test video with the source as a 6 minute .mp4. It just hangs at a little over 50%. What am I doing wrong?

This is the point where the final moviefile gets split into 10 minute-files (so 10 min videos are not the max ;) ) and the program tries to put them on your destination folder.
Maybe your sd card isnt connected or the folder doesn't exist anymore. Pls prove that.
If this conversion was the last one you've tried, there must be a psize.txt in your windows temp folder. pls post this textfile here.

It automatically splits into 10 minute files? Awesome.

My SD card is connected. It actually inched along, VERY SLOWLY. Funnily enough, it finished just as I was typing this response. And I started it about an hour ago. Should it take an hour for such a small file?

Also... I'm not sure where my Windows temp folder is.
