Quick AVI Creator

OVERVIEW

Quick AVI Creator (QAC) is a FREEWARE, easy to use front-end, which uses several GNU licensed applications to convert DVD/video to AVI/xvid/x264.

The extra goal of the Quick AVI Creator is the absolute tuning of the output. To accomplish this goal, QAC uses AvsP which is the main difference between Quick AVI Creator and other video conversion front-ends.

Therefore you have the full control of the generated Avisynth script, thus you take advantage of every feature that the Avisynth offers. You can preview the output, resize, trim, deinterlace, if necessary, change frame rate, add Avisynth filters like denoise, etc.

SCREENSHOTS

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Obviously a proper decoding filter for decompressing AVI, DivX, XviD, etc. should be installed. If you haven't already one, my suggestion is ffdshow.

In order to install and run Quick AVI Creator package in platform NT systems, you must be logged in at least with a Power User account.

QAC is developed entirely with nsis which is an open-source installation system with a powerful scripting language and a bunch of plugins. The adequacy and flexibility of nsis indeed offer the ability to use it as a programmable language.

If you want to participate, you may translate QAC in your native language.
Download the translate application (also included into the full package) which simplifies the translation procedure while it preserves the strings length.
Send me the generated text file and I will add it in the next release.

If you have any questions and suggestions relative to the program, as well
if you want to report bugs, see the discussion at videohelp.com forum.

If you wish, you may contact me at: RED.WINE -AT- FREEMAIL.GR.
I can't promise that I will answer to all, I will do my best though.
