Mpg2Cut2 Official Site Last Revised: 12 April 2012

RocketJet4 - Tools
This new site supersedes the GeoCities site.
The old site closed in October 2009.

ANNOUNCEMENT

Some sites are still distributing old OBSOLETE versions.
If you are using a pre-2009 version of Mpg2Cut2,
I highly recommend that you UPGRADE NOW
to the current Beta version available below.

If you have any comment or queries,
please post on the support forum thread.

MS-Vista/Windows 7
Aero mode

Aero apparently has *NO SUPPORT* for DirectDraw Overlay.

_ I recommend you turn off Aero mode in Windows (preferred),

____ or tick "Never Use Overlay" in the Mpg2Cut2 View menu.

For an explanation see :- NY Times ARTICLE ON VISTA COMPATIBILITY

Mpg2Cut2 :-

• Fault Tolerant, GOP level, binary editor
  for basic cutting of Mpeg2 Program Stream files.
  

• Handles large files (> 4GB) captured from Digital Television broadcasts (DTV), including High Definiton (HDTV).
  

• The JOINS are ROUGH, but the tool is FREE.
  

• For compatibility, combine this with PVAStrumento.
  

• I N T R O Click here for usage and troubleshooting info.
  
  
  The recommended way to create chapters,
  is to save each clip SEPARATELY.
  This way each clip becomes a separate chapter.
  

This here is a TEST version:

It is still under development.

Mainly because....

• Some players don't like the joins.

• Needs testing on a wider range of formats.
  

• Warning for Panasonic DVD recorders :-
  I still need to do a lot more work for compatibility.
  E.g. Long clips still seem to have problems for some reason.

• Warning for Satellite users :-
  Time Stamp correction option NOT compatible with Satellite.
  

The remaining known bugs are comparatively minor.

Mpg2Cut2 - Current BETA Version:

Latest Revision:-__ 18 APR 2011 _- Build B418

Change Log for this Release :-

- AC3 & LPCM header processing improved.
__LPCM zero channels problem fixed.
__AC3 false sync-byte skipped.

- Volume down bug fixed.
__Ensures volume control activated when needed.

- Frame Rate Override now adjusts audio preview rate.

- Misc minor changes.

USAGE NOTE FOR AUDIO LIMITER

If you have the Volume Boost set quite HIGH, (1st slider)
but the Limiter set quite LOW, (2nd slider)
then they will be acting AGAINST each other.
This will provide maximum smoothing of volume levels,
but background noises may become annoying.
EG Traffic noise, people breathing, camera whirr, hiss.
So adjust according to your personal taste.

- Warning for Satellite users :-
_The Time Stamp correction option is NOT compatible with Satellite.

MORE DOWNLOADS

If you are planning on using the edited output on a DVD,

OR if you have problems in playback, such as bad audio sync:

then I suggest that you ALSO use one of the following format conversion utilities, which examine an Mpeg stream in detail, and adjust it to meet DVD or SVCD restrictions:

PVAStrumento - for most users:

• Official site - Offeryn

• Introduction to PVAS - basic guide.
  

• Alternative download site
  
  
  

ProjectX - for advanced users:

• German guide at Luckike

• English guide at Doom9 - out of date

• Forum at DVBtechnics

• Download Windows version - VideoHelp

• Download Java source - FAQ, Help, etc.

• Oozoon compiled versions

TS-Doctor - for Transport Streams only:

• Cypheros - official site

 

The recommended way to create chapters,
is to save each clip SEPARATELY.
This way each clip becomes a separate chapter.

OLD builds of Test Versions:

Hopefully, you won't need the old versions,
because they are all out of date.

But if the latest build has taken away
something you needed,
you can fall back to one of these.
