How to apply a filter to just a part of the movie with VirtualDub

[Drakul]

I have been reading documents on VirtualDubMPEG, and I can't seem to find a mention of selecting part of a file (if it is possible). I just want to apply the logo filter to only a section of the file. Is there a way to do it?

I need to do this to filter a logo which fade in and out through the movie...

Thanks...

Use the most recent version of virtualdub (which will load mpeg files, if that is what you need) and you can use keyframes to control filters.

Is there a guide for that somewhere? I could have used that yesterday.

there is an external logo filter for virtualdub

which will most easily do what you want.

It possible in actual VirtualDub version used Curve editor.

BTW

It's been almost a year since the last release of VirtualDub-MPEG2, so I guess we should consider it a dead project. I can't imagine any reason I would ever update it again. In the last year the development of the MPEG-2 and WMV plugins have made VirtualDub-MPEG2 obsolete.

Might be time for a redesign of the web site...

There is also a 'Conditional Execution Filter' for VirtualDub that can apply most VD filters to selected frames of your video: http://web.archive.org/web/20050405002942/http://wwwtcs.inf.tu-dresden.de/~dc1/conditional
