Doesn't seem to work. Does there exist a program that can convert these .mkv files back into something prem pro can recognise? Don't mind a little quality loss but none would be better :D. Again guys i appreciate any help you can offer.

Easy solution:

1. Create avs in the same directory with DirectShowSource("filename.mkv").
2. Open .avs file with VirtualDub.
3. Convert to whatever you want.

ok done that and get this error message:

Avisynth open failure:
Script error: Invalid functions to argument "SetMemoryMax"
(setmemorymax.avsi, line1)

Any ideas?

I've been trying your encoder and after some initial problems (dos window closed immediately and it didn't create a file it now works... APART from the fact that I can't add audio. When I tick that box it does start encoding but at the end of the session it suddenly prints some error messages and closes the dos window (too fast for me to read) and it doesn't create an output file.

Yeah this seems to be a very strange problem that only appears on some peoples' systems, so its been very hard to track down.

Have you tried using a separate audio file rather than the audio from the source? Tell me if that works; if it does, I think I know what the problem is. If it doesn't... well... I'll have to start from square one.

I have tried to put in a separate audio file in one video i made earlier, and it did work good, since i couldn't get the AutoEncoder to work with letting the AutoEncoder convert the audio directly from the movie, so i had to put the audio track into the movie.

Yeah, I'm guessing that the filter setups on some machines either:

a) Don't allow AviSynth to grab the audio at all
b) Don't allow Virtualdub to grab the audio from AviSynth

If b) is the case, its fixable. If a) is the case, its probably not.

In such a situation is there a method to add an audio track to the outputted .mkv file? The auto-encoder can't encode audio one my machine if I use the source audio or a separate audio file. And VirtualDub of course doesn't recognize the .mkv file

Epic fail on my behalf :(, I get an error message on extract saying that 0-19 of the files are broken, But there still in the directory where i extracted, when i try to run AVI synth it says the installer is corrupt, when i try The Encoder it starts then says it fails a few times then brings up a directory listing of the output file location.

but but bu i've been dling stuff all day and none of that is corrupt, Can re-upload to eve files or sumit less carp then facebook....

i was looking at an ad... but ethier way i think its flash get corrupting the file but without flash get it's a whopping 5kb/s

great tool!

thank you, DS and Capone, for creating this

It converted my mpeg-2 file to mkv without a hitch. Not only that, but it retained most if not all of the quality while reducing the original file's size from 370mb to a little over 32mb.

The mkv wouldn't open properly or at all in VDub or VDub mod, but meh, I don't think that's the fault of this excellent program you guys made.

Nice encoder. Frapsed one fight at half res (single core ), threw it into movie maker , ran it at the highest settings then put that into the h.264 (204mg > 20mg \o/) Test Render .

In all honesty i'm not that fussed with the res, it means anyone can run it (and even if i could have frapsed it at full screen anyone watching it on a smaller monitor wouldn't have been able to read the txt anyway). What i am curios about however is are there any de blockers or sharpening tools around that could improve the visual quality further i.e. something i could either throw this .mvk in or the .wmv (vain hope )?
