Is the Preview now working right, does it show in the correct AR?

Experimented with program settings.
Default Settings:Encoding Profile Quality-High Quality(Normal Encoding Speed),Select CPU Cores 2,get error multicore encoder will not initialize.
Change default Select CPU Cores to 1 and program initializes QuEnc ,program executes full cycle to produce satisfactory DVD compliant folder.
Change default Encoding Profile Quality to Very High Quality(Low Encoding Speed),keep Select CPU Cores at 2,program executes HCEnc,runs through full cycle to produce satisfactory DVD compliant folder. -
version 1.2.0 gives the following info message after avstodvd has been installed but before avisynth is being installed, (version 1.1.3 does not):
Windows File Protection
Files that are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions. To maintain system stability, Windows must restore the original versions of these files. Insert your product CD-ROM now.
I inserted my installation DVD and windows recovered the original files.
are you installing old versions of system files on top of new ones? if not, what's going on here?
Also, error on line 1 of avs script. seems to work only after I install FFdshow (or a diferrent xvid codec)
I thought the installation package contains a codec pack because there is no mention of prerequisite codecs. -

Hi!
just tested(no install version), added some titles, one with subs, another without, one hardvcoded, another selectable.
It processed the videos with no problems, cant see anything wrong with it except for the fact that it selects 1 pass with Quenc even when i select 2 pass with HCenc, i select 2 pass with HCenc to be the default mode but it still l uses quenc 1 pass mode.
Apart from that dont see anything wrong with it, like the detail when editing titles where the users can switch bettween titles to edit them.
The GUi seems a bit pale , but as long the "core" works its not an issue to me.
Nice workI love it when a plan comes together! -

but you can modify bitrate levels. Find more details in Help (F1).
By the way, you can force video profile in Title Edit window: toggle off 'Auto Video Setup' and then select the preferred video profile.

quartz.dll: MS ActiveMovie DirectShow library. DirectX component since DX8.1. Untouched by AVStoDVD.
mediainfo.dll: a very popular (and open source) library to detect media files properties. During installation AVStoDVD replaces it in SYSTEM32 folder if newer.
None of those libraries are removed during uninstall procedure.
Hope it helps
