MeGUI Setup is now Complete. Lets Start Encoding.
Today I am encoding Kabul Express to 1CD Xvid. Just follow along.
Start Megui -
Click Tools | D2V Creator
The DGIndex Project creator will open. Click the Video Input box.
Then choose the first .VOB file of the main movie. For me this file is VTS_02_1.VOB. The whole movie is actually contained in VTS_02_1.VOB, VTS_02_2.VOB, VTS_02_3.VOB and VTS_02_4.VOB. Just select the first and MeGui will add the rest of the files.
NOTE : Do NOT choose VTS_01_0.vob – most of the time it contains only Ads and other junk, choose the first .VOB file that is 0.99GB. The rest of the movie .VOB files of the movie are added automatically.
The following error will pop-up. Click OK.
1. Select “Demux all Audio Tracks”
2. Check the box “and close”
3. Click “Queue”
1. Click the Queue tab to see the Queue Screen
2. Click Start.
DGIndex will start in the background and the MeGui Log Window will open.
When the Job has finished, Click the CLEAR button to clear the job queue.
The .d2v file will be created.
The audio files will be demuxed.
Click Tools | Avisynth Script Creator
The AviSynth script creator window will open. Click the Video Input box.
Select the newly created .d2v file. Then click OPEN.
The following screens will open - The main window -
and the preview window -
On the Main window –
1. check the box that says “CROP”
2. and click “AUTOCROP”
3. check the box that says “Suggest Resolution”
As you can see in the below image, the AUTOCROP is not perfect – it has left black lines on the top and the bottom.
Move the slider to a light point in the movie to make out the black lines more clearly.
Adjust the crop using the adjustment section on the main AviSynth script creator window as shown below
The adjusted crop eliminates the black borders completely. This will improve compression and the resulting quality of the rip will be better.
1. Then click on the “FILTERS” tab on the top.
2. Click the “Analyse...” button and let the analysis run.
