Hi there!
SynthEditor is my personnel attempt to make AviSynth available to everyone.
Those who know AviSynth realize that it is one of the most powerful tools in the world of Video Editing applications but it is, also, the most difficult for everyone that don't know what an AVS script is. Even for advanced users it's not easy to write the simplest script without the use of external tools.
I know that there are other tools using AviSynth but I think they are too hard to be used by newbies.
The objective of this tool is to make AviSynth available to everyone since first day but I also want to make it powerful and flexible enough to fill the advanced users needs. To achieve my objectives I'm expecting all the collaboration i can get from you... feel free to request features, suggest improvements help me with sample scripts, filters, effects, etc.
At this point, SynthEditor, only performs simple cuts and encodes mpeg2 using QuEnc for audio (AC3 and MP2/MPA) and HC for video.
Lots of new features are on the way!
Thank you.
Rockas
Please note... this is the FIRST BETA - USE IT CAREFULLY and please use empty folders for tests (just in case, I tried to add warnings every time something is going to be deleted but...)
here's the change log:
Please note: The Encoding feature will work (at this point) with MPEG files ONLY!!! and you can only use HC to encode the Video and QuEnc to encode the Audio.14 MAR. 2006 v0.1.0 Beta
-Updated the "Up" and "Down" segments move. Now the selected segment keeps 'highlighted' - my thank goes to communist (doom9 forum) for remembering me about this;
-Added support to "Video(only)Streams" - .m2v and .mpv
-Fixed a bug that related to target frame size on the import dialog - if a target size was chosen before selecting a file you would get an error and program would close;
-When saving a Project, SynthEditor will check if the selected folder contains files... if it does a warning will be shown telling user that those files will be erased - user can choose to continue or not... sorry about your files niiyan (doom9's forum)
-When closing the program will be asked if user wants to erase all the temporary files;
-Corrected a few bugs on the "Save Project" feature;
-Corrected the display of Frame Sizes on some AVI files (Uncompressed and DV) using AvInfo - all the other data is still collected with MediaInfo.exe;
-Added a routine that is supposed to detect frame type (progressive/interlaced) and Field Order, from mpeg files, using DGIndex and an AutoIt script;
-Added the encoding Feature for MPEG Files (ONLY!!!) - on this release you'll be able to encode video using HC Encoder and QuEnc will be used to encode the audio.
I'm releasing it as it is so you can test the final sizes accuracy, I'll be adding new Encoders (QuEnc for video, CCE - this one is the pain due versions differences and maybe other by request).
Please... be patient... my free time ain't much so I only had time to test it on the same system(computer) I use to program... that means that everything may be just fine here but it may not even start on your computer
Any doubts... just ask, ok?
Thank you all in advance.

Yeah, I'm fairly proficient with Premiere Pro 1.5 having cut my teeth on Premiere 6.0 (all self-taught) and still a fair bit of editing - holidays, weddings etc.
I'm also a professional consultant software tester by trade, so it sounds like I should stick my hand up.

I'll give it a go. If it can take 3 separate video/audio streams, display the audio as a waveform to assist in synchronising them and then preview all three simultaneously in separate windows while allowing me to select which stream will be my final output, you've got a winner!
-
What I would like to see is a very basic video editor that would simulate a 3 machine edit suite, so that you could have 2 sources of video (with stereo audio waveforms displayed) being able to be cut down to a single master file with facilities to use insert edit video only, audio dub only, and allowing for either straight cuts or simple (user length definable) dissolves. Two preview monitors and one master monitor displayed. Oh and be able to accept any audio video files that you happen to have codecs for and output in basic avi format (again machine installed codecs specific).
But I guess I'm dreaming again. Oh well, back to the Avid! -

well... my application is supposed to detect (using other tools) the audio/video delay and make the output synchronized... but remember... this is only on the first steps... I can add some features to the todo list
@energy80s
The objective of my small app. it to edit Video (AVI and MPEG) sources and output to DVD not to AVI... but as I stated above I can add stuff to the todo list.My oppinions may change, but not the fact that I am right!

Then you want to cut or get a slice of angle1 then get another slice from angle 2 and the same for Angle 3 (just an example the order doesn't have to be that)... something like that?
The output will be a mix of all, correct?

OK. My curiosity finally got the better of me. I assumed from the title that it was another SpectateSwamp thread and was ignoring it, hoping it would get locked or just go away. But since it has survived a couple days, I couldn't resist a look to see who was feeding his sickness and responding. Imagine my surprise.
I might be willing to help test if it doesn't require making major modifications to my system. Three questions;
What platform does your editing program run on?
What are the system requirements?
Is it dependant on certain software packages being installed, (like Microsoft's .Net)?"Shut up Wesley!" -- Captain Jean-Luc Picard

That's right. I shoot a stage production using 3 cameras to give the three angles. I transfer the footage from the cameras to hard drive and load the three files into an editor. Once there, I have to adjust them on the timeline to get them synchronised (to the frame) so that the lipsync is perfect no matter which shot I am using. What I want is a simple way to watch all three files and select which one I want as the final output. The final output then becomes 10 seconds from stream 1, short crossfade into stream 2 for 15 seconds, then short crossfade into stream 3, and so on.
There are plenty of video editors about that range from the very basic (Windows Movie Maker) to some very expensive high end ones that are capable of hundreds of different effects and transitions (most of which I have no use for). Nothing that I am aware of that can do what I would like. -
I hope it will be able to run on every Windows XP/2000 out there
The system requirements will be the normal for Video Editing
Yes... most of the external tools will be included on the ZIP/RAR files... the only thing needed and not included is AviSynth... I forgot to birng attention on thisMy oppinions may change, but not the fact that I am right!

Ok that raises several more questions.
So is this basically a GUI front end for AviSynth?
Does it accomidate AviSynth plugins?
To my knowledge, AviSynth does not handle the audio from Type1 DV-AVI well. Will your editor overcome this problem?
You say all of the required external tools will be included (except AviSynth). What are those external tools, and if they already exist, will your program overwrite the existing copies?
What encoder(s) are you including?"Shut up Wesley!" -- Captain Jean-Luc Picard

QuEnc Encoder
CCE
- still working on the audio encoders at this point... using QuEnc you can use it to encode MPA and AC3... for the other encoders I think I'll use BeSweet... I'm opened to suggestions, though.My oppinions may change, but not the fact that I am right!

Well, based on your answers, it looks like it won't have a negative affect on my system so I'm willing to give it a go. What's that link?

I played around with it a little. It worked fine with DV-AVI.
I did encounter a problem with mpegs. Aperrently it works in YV12 colorspace. I don't have codecs that work in YV12, so WMP tried to download codecs and would not give display. I solved this by adding "ConvertToYUY2" line in the Project AVS script in the Temp Folder. This gave me the display and allowed me to edit the mpeg fine. I can understand using YV12 because you will be encoding with one of the free encoders that require that colorspace.
The layout is fine for what it is. It's a little too simple for my tastes though. I prefere to work in a Timeline with multiple overlay tracks like Premiere and Wax2. It does work fine for basic Cut and Paste editing and I'm sure it will get better and more features as you develope it.
Good Luck,
This is what it looks like for those interested:

Man... I really need to change those colors... they look horrible on a CRT Monitor... they look completly different from the one I have chosen on my TFT
@All
I'm fixing a few bugs and adding the possibility to edit cut point... now I have to change the colors too
I think I can release a new Alpha by tomorrow... sorry for the delay.My oppinions may change, but not the fact that I am right!
