Beta Testers wanted - DVD Crusher

What does the app do? Work with the Big3 or compete with it? I noticed all your posts are about VB in other forums, and you never PMed me to ask me about integration, so I'm going to assume it competes... You seem to be quite knowledgeable with avisynth, and have done quite a bit of research on transcoders (ewww) too :) I also notice that you've come a long way from posting questions about Maestro and VStrip, to posting questions now about parsing IFOs and max values of DVD Spec.

quantum this is the doifast4u, docce4u & reauthorist (and supporting apps) forum. Looks like yours is not? Zeul

Well, let's give him opportunity to respond. I want to see if he's journeying into another's camp and offering real estate elsewhere.

It's a tool that is reliant on ReAuthorist, so I thought posting it here would be appropriate. Not sure where else it would go. Together with ReAuthorist it works similarly to DoItFast4u + DoCCE4u + ReAuthorist I wouldn't use the term 'competes with'. A carpenter can have many similar tools in his toolbox. He pulls out what he needs when it's appropriate. I've found it handy for the types of projects I work on and thought some others might benefit as well.

interesting. so you're going to steal MY renaming scheme (intellectual property) and use it for your own interests? Reauthorist works by parsing files according to a renaming scheme that I invented (innovative concept- original thought). The whole magic behind it is because I came up with an idea of a way to name files that could enable another app to parse and determine the original structure. DoItFast4U! wrote files FIRST, and then Reauthorist was developed to use those filenames, not vice versa. To steal and use my concept, as well as my filename structure... well that's just not cool.

Another thing I've wondered, now that NuMenu4U is reaching a decent level of maturity and I can see it preforming a very important space saver role (why some DVDs have 1GB menus I'll never know :rolleyes: ) , should the "big 3" become known as the "big 4"? Or should there be a nickname given to the DVD9 -> DVD5 conversion process that is followed in this forum which is desciptive of the process, rather than the number of programs required to do it? Oh yeah, quantum, I doubt anyone will knock you down for creating software which will help with refining the process used in this forum, but using someones work without even asking the author is a tad rude.

brashquido: Zeul and I have already discussed integrating our apps closer together, several times (see ). It will probably happen. Technically, BatchCCE4U isn't a part of the Big3 anymore, so NuMenu4U brings the big3 nomenclature back to the right count :) BTW: None of the authors decided on that nickname! For the longest we called it DoItFast Tools (and had a channel called #doitfastcoders). Big3 was just used so much by the users that it eventually stuck and us authors just said, "Another nickname? Sure, why not?" and went along for the ride. :D

It all works out very nicely then :)

I'm quite curious about this. What's going to be the added value of this above the big three method? Which has proven it's capabilities already. And why would PAL users be excluded of this new tool? :confused:
