I am interested in processing movies. It seems to be a pretty easy thing to do, so I was just wondering a couple things about getting the files encoded. First of all, I was wondering if there is any way to force huffyuv to split my output into several files. Upon my first few attempts at exporting AVI from SNES9X I ran into an issue where my filesize was limited to somewhere around 4GB... so I paused exporting about halfway through a movie, then continued exporting to a different filename. When using VirtualDub I then edit the two movies together, matching frames. This seems tedious to me and I was just wondering if there is a better way to go about it... Also, now that I have successfully obtained a lossless hardcopy of the run, I am looking to find optimal settings for using the h.264 codec. EDIT: The AVI processing guides only refer to using optimal settings for Xvid, which seems to be outdated now. Lastly, I am looking for the best way to create the logo/movie information header for a processed movie. Is there a specific template that should be used? What is the best way to get this inserted into VirtualDub? Looking forward to contributing.
