Scene Detector Program

[MI6]

I'm looking for capture program with scene detection support but not for capturing digital video trough fire vire, but capturig analog video trough composit in. After spltting AVI file with such a program I want edit the AVI file with Vegas. Vegas only support DV scene detection.
Regards.

The scene detection for DV is based on the timecode not the frames....

There was simialr post to this and I mentioned that Ulead Media Studio Pro has a scene detectioion function for non DV material. When you open the video and you can have it scan the video and search for frames that drastically change, you can adjust the simialrity....

Besides that I'm not aware of anything....

scan the video and search for frames that drastically change

That's the key for scene detection by content. Most NLE's have some kind of scene detetction, but I haven't found any program that does a good job of it. Personally I'd go with the manual approach, may take more time but is less of a headache in the end.

No this one didn't work very well either for content that slightly changed..... Either misses the scene changes or selects too many depending on which way you pushed the similarity slider. No happy medium. I just gave up on it and did it manually.

Scenalyzer will do scene detection with AVI that exsists on your hard drive. Not sure if it will do it with composit input, but if you have it captured on your harddrive as a big avi file you can try it out. But again, this doesn't work 100%. But it does do a pretty good job.
