ANNOUNCEMENT
In the
latest Alpha release I have
DISABLED the
following Output options :
- "Deep Parsing"
- "Parse All Packets"
as these
options seem to be more trouble than they are worth.
If you are
continuing to use the old Beta
version,
I highly recommend that you disable these MANUALLY.
If you
have any comment
or queries,
please post on the support forum thread.
MS-Vista
Aero mode
apparently has *NO SUPPORT* for DirectDraw Overlay.
_ You can either turn off Aero
mode
in MS-Windows Vista (preferred),
____ or tick "Never Use Overlay" in the Mpg2Cut2
View menu.
For an explanation see NYT ARTICLE ON VISTA COMPATIBILITY

Mpg2Cut2 :-
Fault Tolerant, GOP level, binary editor
for basic cutting of Mpeg2 Program Stream files.
Handles large files (> 4GB) captured from Digital Television broadcasts (DTV), including High Definiton (HDTV).
The JOINS are ROUGH, but the tool is FREE.
I N T R O Click here for usage and
troubleshooting info.
The recommended way to create
chapters,
is to save each clip SEPARATELY.
This way each clip becomes a separate chapter.
This here is a TEST version:
It
is still under development.
Mainly because....
Some players don't like the joins.
Needs testing on a wider range of formats.
Warning for Panasonic DVD recorders :-
I still need to do a lot more work for compatibility.
E.g. Long clips still seem to have problems for some reason.Warning for Satellite users :-
Time Stamp correction option NOT compatible with Satellite.
The remaining known bugs are comparatively minor.

DOWNLOADS
* * Remember
to do a VIRUS check * *
Download
Instructions:
Some of the
downloads are hosted on MIRROR SITES,
which have eccentric web page layout.
After clicking on a download link,
a window will pop-up from the mirror site.
Look for the button marked "FREE" on their first page.
Then on the following page you will probably have to wait for
around a minute for a timer to expire before you get a download
button. You may be shown a 4 letter password code, which you will
need to enter to do a free download.
This rigamorole is because of download limits here on this site.
First Visit ?
You will need to download BOTH the main Mpg2Cut2 zip file AND the AUDIO DLLs zip file, from the list below.
Also take a look at the list of 3rd Party Plug-ins,
and supporting utilities.
Return Visits ?
You will only need to download files that have been changed since your last download.
AUDIO
DLLs:
Required for Mpeg Audio preview function.
This is a separate download, as it does not change very often.
LibMMD + MpaLib - 20 Apr 2002 - 283k Zip. (Dark Avenger routines)
- Unzip the DLLs into your Windows Folder.
In fact the DLLs can be in any folder included in the System Path. The easiest way to see the list is to open a dos window [Command Prompt] and type in the word PATH followed by the enter key.
This package is for MMX processors, or better.
More info and versions available from Dark Avenger's site.
Audio preview is only supported for Program Streams, not TS format.
Mpg2Cut2 - Current ALPHA Version:
Latest Revision:-__ 30 MAR 2009 _- Build 9330
- New Support Forum.
_ New forum on GoogleGroups
:- Rocket Jetty
_ The old forum stopped
working.
- Output Parsing bug FIXED.
_ (I think !)
- Option to suppress unwanted audio tracks..
_ File - Save Parts.
- Better detection of Mpeg Audio frame headders.
_ Work still in progress.
- Fix calculation of Mpeg Audio frame size..
- Leadtek Overlay Key option.
_ If Leadtek Winfast is
running in the background in silent mode,
_ it stops Mpg2Cut2 from
using it's own Color Key for the overlay.
_ Turn on the following
option to force Mpg2Cut2 to use the Leadtek Color Key.
_
__MENU -
VIEW - TECHNICAL - DRIVER CONFLICTS - LEADTEK OVL KEY
_ Side effect is that Menus
become transparent.
- VHS less ugly during
preview.
_ 2 options are available
to help when previewing VHS sourved material.
_ These options do *NOT* alter the output file at
all.
_ a) Luminance panel "VHS"
option limits oversaturated red.
_ b) MENU - VIEW - SPECIAL
FX - VHS Convergence.
_ _ _ _ Allows Color to be
shifted slightly, relative to luminance.
- Regressed compiler
maintenance.
_ My rebuild of the VC-6
environment under XP stuffed up the optimizer.
_ So I have gone back to
Win98 for "Release" compiles,
_ until I figure out what
went wrong under XP.
_ I suspect the processor
pack or one of the SP packs.
- Misc minor changes.
- Warning for Panasonic DVD
recorders :-
_I still need to do a lot more work
for compatibility.
_E.g. Long clips still seem to have
problems for some reason.
- Warning for Satellite
users :-
_The Time Stamp correction option
is NOT compatible with Satellite.

If you are planning on using the edited output on a DVD,
OR if you have problems in playback, such as bad audio sync:
then I suggest that you ALSO use one of the following format conversion utilities, which examine an Mpeg stream in detail, and adjust it to meet DVD or SVCD restrictions:
PVAStrumento - for most users:
Official site - Offeryn
Introduction to PVAS - basic guide.
ProjectX - for advanced users:
English guide at Doom9 - out of date
Download Windows version - VideoHelp
Download Java source - FAQ, Help, etc.
TS-Doctor - for Transport Streams only:

OLD builds of Test Versions:
Hopefully, you won't need
the old versions,
because they are all out of date.
But if the latest build has taken away
something you needed,
you can fall back to one of these.
