Description

D2V Witch indexes MPEG (1, 2) streams and writes D2V files. These can be used with the VapourSynth plugin d2vsource.

The executable is both a console application and a graphical one. The graphical interface is shown if the command line parameters passed are all recognised by Qt, or if there are no command line parameters.

Due to technical reasons, D2V Witch will not look quite right in cmd.exe, but it's still pretty usable.

In order to help with cutting and demuxing parts of the video, the graphical interface will use the VapourSynth plugin d2vsource to display the video, if VapourSynth and the plugin can be found. Cutting parts of the video can still be done even if they are not found.

Usage: d2vwitch [options] input_file1 input_file2 ...

Options:
    --help
        Display this message.

    --version
        Display version numbers and ffmpeg configuration.

    --info
        Display relevant information about the input file(s), such as a
        list of all the video and audio tracks and their ids.

    --quiet
        Do not print progress information or warnings. Fatal errors are
        always printed.

    --output <d2v name>
        Specify the name of the D2V file. The special name "-" means
        standard output. If not specified, the name of the D2V file is
        deduced from the name of the first input file.

    --audio-ids <id1,id2,...>
        Demux the audio tracks with the specified ids. The special
        value "all" means that all audio tracks should be demuxed. By
        default, no audio tracks are demuxed. The names of the audio
        files are deduced from the name of the D2V file.

    --video-id <id>
        Process the video track with this id. By default, the first
        video track found will be processed.

    --input-range <range>
        Set the YUVRGB_Scale field in the d2v file according to the
        video's input colour range. Possible values are "limited" and
        "full". By default, the video is assumed to have limited range.

Compilation

The usual steps work:

./autogen.sh
./configure
make

Requirements:

• A C++11 compiler
• FFmpeg (Libav probably works too)
• Qt 5.2, or maybe newer
• VapourSynth.h

Limitations

The "skip" field is always 0, because the author has no clue about this stuff/the DGIndex manual's Appendix A doesn't explain it well enough.

The "vob" and "cell" fields are always 0, because ffmpeg doesn't know about the structure of DVDs, and the author doesn't care.
