This is already working for video and audio encoding. And should work for simpel remux.
But to make users aware of this usefull function, you should use a txt line like this on the grid:
Drag & drop files to replicate Batch 0.

Can a batch of .mp4 video files be loaded and have all the .aac audio streams be extracted all at once?

[Attachment 84395 - Click to enlarge]Hello, I have a few ideas to find out what you think.
1. Can the application name and window be simplified? Remove the part that says GUI. The application name can be just “clever FFMpeg” (I think it would be more universal.) (when you click on info, a window opens and shows the application version and developer as in the image)
2. Fast Start can remain on by default when muxing mp4 files (even the box can be removed and every file is written as fast start by default)
3. There may be a bug: When muxing mp4 file, the Title part looks empty, but the title of the track of the source file is written to the destination file. -
There is no advantage to this. I also like the name and that's why it stays that way.
I will leave the checkbox as it is, but set it to checked by default.
There are two places where you can enter the video title in multiplex. Once at stream level, in the title column, and once at container level under other settings, Movie Title. -

Thank you for taking care of my previous findings!

> Simple remux -> To Batch, not working.
Your code contains just a simple error as the syntax is -dn instead of dn, that's all.
Drag and drop for Batch Tasks is working afterwards.
---
Drag and drop for Batch Tasks:
Is also working for Stream cut!
Therefore, the same cut points get used for new video streams, but it is working well. Although these cut points are not confirmed/checked individually. So I would keep it as it is
---
Bug after Batch Tasks processing:
The automatic import to the associated grids are
- Video and Audio to Multiplex
- One Stream cut to Main
- Several Stream cuts to Join
- Simple remux to Main and reset of the source
As it should be!
If the Batch Tasks also contain several stream cuts, the Join grid opens after the end of Batch Tasks processing. Good.
But if you leave Join without joining, only Multiplex is availabel on the Main grid and not Join as well. You need to open a source file to be able to go back to Join.
Could you please enable that?
This does not happen if the Batch Tasks only contain several stream cuts.
---
Batch Tasks grid, small text update:
After Batch processing, the processed streams are automatically imported into the Multiplex/Join grid for further use.
---
As you know, Drag and drop for Batch Tasks only works if all existing batch tasks are from the same type (Video, Audio, Stream cut or Simple remux).
Why does this limitation exist?
The replication of Batch 0 also works as expected if you swap Batch 0, like from Video to Audio, and drop files afterwards.
---
Is there a code difference to Simple remux and the Multiplex button? -
It's already fixed in my actual beta.
It's already fixed in my actual beta.
Will be done.
The limitation is that the command line is adopted exactly during replication, i.e. stream 2 (audio) to mp2 etc.
From every added video, stream 2 is adopted, even if it does not exist. This can lead to errors. That is why I did not advertise this additional function better.
BTW
Replicate video cuts makes no sense.
There are big differences. With simple remux, the video is remuxed as it is with streamcopy.
With normal multiplexing, you can change the tracks, add tags such as language and title or attachments such as images or fonts, specify a different delay for each audio stream, etc. -

Yes, of couse.
I mean if you do no other changes for normal multiplexing, even not the new default for Fast Start.
So you select the source, click on Multiplex on the Main grid, then on Multiplex on the Multiplex grid.
Compared to selecting Simple remux and click on Remux. -

Thank you for Fast Start default on option.
Other subject: I'm not talking about the movie title, it's smooth. Video and audio tracks appear blank on the Multiplex screen. But it is copied from the source file to the target. -

Not implemented.
Joint cuts get deleted after joining. So cutted parts could only joined once. Might be okay!
> Join grid
It would be consistent to hide the "Clear cuts" button if the list is empty like for "Swap files" and "Join" when nothing is selected.
The colum Type has a sort funktion, which could be usefull. But if the join list is empty and you add multible cuts from the Cut grid, the first entry starts with a blank instead of "Steam cut…".

For better understanding, I would rather use text instead of a gear symbol on the settings button.

These various "Batch Tasks" also get processed without error:
Change video DAR
Change Profile Level
Rotate Video
Crop video (MD only)
Fix framerate
Good!

Isn't it better to stay in the Multiplex grid instead of leaving it when using "Del PS"?
What about moveing the buttom to the top right next to "Swap streams" as it is list related?

Multiplex grid text Change (cause of funktionality):
Delete files after muxing (Caution!)
If checked, all selected files excepte the source file are deleted after muxing.
New:
Delete processed streams after muxing (Caution!)
If enabled, only the selected processed streams from the grid and their corresponding files will be deleted after muxing. -
@ ProWo
for Cutting, Joining video files, may I suggest you look at LosslessCut.
check out the validate option when joining.As always .. there is nothing wrong with my environment -
That seems logical to me.
Will be fixed.
The sort function is incorrect and will be removed.
I cannot reproduce the blank here.

In addition to the Del PS, there is also the Del BS button.
They stay where they are. But I will change their behavior.
The text should refer to the deleted files, not streams. However, I will improve the tooltip for this checkbox. -

My fault!
The text in the Type column is centered and not left-aligned.

For a uniform look -> headers and content should have the same alignment.
But that is not important.

Today, I did not get a reminder/notification in v3.3.6.01 about the new version v3.3.6.02
<upd_reminder>27.12.2024?0</upd_reminder>
When opening the Audio Encoder grid, always the source FPS values are preselected. Is that intentional? -
I have removed the automatic update check because it was too annoying for many users. Now you can check manually in the settings at any time to see if a newer version is available.
Yes, that is the intention. But since many users do not know that there are only 3 different audio lengths for commercial videos, namely PAL (25, 50 fps have the same length), NTSC (23.976, 29.97 fps have the same length) and 24 fps, it can be confusing.
I will rewrite this into a selectable preset that is adapted to the video source. -

Great! Thanks for clarification.

Multiplex grid clean up behavior:
The "Task successfully completed." notification window only appears when I unselect a preselected processed or batch stream.
Is that the Intention?

Multiplex grid Tooltip small text change:
Del PS tooltip: Delete all processed streams from the grid and the related files too.
Del BS tooltip: Delete all (processed) batch streams from the grid and the related files too.
I think it becomes clearer if the text in the brackets get deleted.
I did'nt know about Del BS before. Thanks for the hint!

Multiplex grid delay playback:
What about the idea that if there is a value in a selected delay field, a playback button will appear to check if video and audio are in sync before muxing begins?
Or it could be multiplexed multiple times with changed delay values using the “Stay Open” function. When active, the grid and files remain untouched and you open the various editions yourself. -
Track titles appear blank on the Multiplex screen. But it is copied from the source file to the target.

This is because the title has non ASCII conform characters, like |, and the grid font isn't able to display it.
Will see what can be done.
EDIT:
I'll change the grid default font to Segoe_UI (unicode aware), so the tags are shown.
But the problem is, that FFmpeg isn't able to write unicode metadata, and this has to be fixed by the FFmpeg guys.
EDIT2:
Researched again. FFmpeg has nothing to do with the problem, it is due to Windows and the codepage used, which is not utf_8 compatible.Last edited by ProWo; 2nd Jan 2025 at 12:01.

This message should appear, if there are unmuxed streams (other the source streams) in the grid.
Will remove it.
On processed streams there should be no need for any audio delay value, because this is already checked in the background.
I'll change the grid behavior to stay open until the mux grid is empty. Muxed streams (source and added too) will be removed after muxing.
A Stay open button is not necessary in my opinion. -

Makes sense. So far it does'nt work for added streams.

> A Stay open button in Multiplex grid is not necessary in my opinion.
I would really benefit from a stay open button that keeps streams and files untouched after muxing.
I collect old black and white movies older than 1950. These TV streams vary in resolution, quality and length depending on the country of broadcast, often with national opening/ending credits and cuted scenes, meaning streams of different lengths.
It always requires manual alignment muxing such singel audio and video streams.
Muxing a sample doesn't help here.
After muxing a sample, streams get cleared up as well.
Would'nt it be better to keep all untouched? -

Can odd values be changed automatically?
Otherwise there are error messages:

Tables (not important)
If you deselect the last stream manualy, could you also deselect (switch) "De-/Select all Tasks"?
And accordingly by select.

Extract streams
Could you please widen the bitrate or make the column wide autosize to fit the content?
The type column in the Multiplex grid is also too small to show Subtitle.
