Virtualdub would probably be my tool of choice.

Is this what you might be looking for? https://www.videohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1337710#1337710

hell yeah..... that's exactly the prog i was lookin for...... it even has an easy hard sub ability... which was sumthin else i was thinking about finally getting

[ChokeUntilDead]

could you give me a link to the actual download......... i cant understand their damned site......

[compuser]

I don't know what language the website is in...but from what it looks like there is a link right next to the English "Download here" from there I don't know. To be honest I just happened to find the videohelp.com post and saw that it was what you were looking for...

Did some searching though...

The QPEL and GMC options are in the codec configuration AFAIK:



In Virtualdub, go to Video > Compression, choose the XviD Codec, then go to Configure, then click the more... button next to the Profile @ level dropdown.

I'm sure I've found some decent setup guides by googling "xvid configuration". THere's plenty of virtualdub guides here in the tools section (to your left) also, so between those two resources, you should be able to work it out.

I just googled "remove qpel gmc" and one of the results returned was:
http://www.ryan.com.br/virtualdub_en.htm

Looks like a guide to using virtualdub to remove QPEL and GMC specifically for the DVP642 and either DivX or XviD for re-compression


Google is your friend

[Baldrick]

No, Dr.DivX is your friend.

[jimmalenko]

No, Dr.DivX is your friend.

Ah yes ...


... but you have to pay for Dr Divx to be your friend for longer than 14 days


EDIT:

And he's no longer available:

http://www.divx.com/divx/drdivx/

The Dr. DivX™ encoding application is no longer available. Time has caught up with the doctor and the new DivX Converter™ has replaced him. While there will be no new Dr. DivX updates, you can still use your existing copy of Dr. DivX and get any support you may need through DivX.com.

okey...latest autogk beta is your friend! supports avi input.

okey...latest autogk beta is your friend! supports avi input.

Can't argue with that.

Just be sure to select Support for ESS-based standalone when you install Autogk and it should work on the Philips 642 dvd player.
