Choose aggressive error correction and parts of DVD may be missing during the encode as FU wizard discards specific chains as being uneccessary. Most of the time it handles DVD beautifully, but throw a pure interlaced source in and the audio is out of synch with duplicate video frames. This latest version has both freeware and retail formats. I needed to use this again for an avi encode, used to use Celtic Druid's super free build(accidentally deleted it on hard drive!), but many builds later it went payware. That said the odd cockup can occur usually a bad rip and AutoGK can save the day, if you want an xvid encoding rather than h264. ![]() AutoGK is good using compression tests but I've seen macroblocking at even high bit rates at 2pass or 1 pass quality 90%+ and much more artifacting than FU Wizard. No macroblocking effects using good bit rates. Advantages with FU Wizard are you can do H264 and its own Xvid Build is truly excellent. AutoGK can do the same but my experiment with it cames out looking very squashed. ![]() The GUI is excellent, especially for entering a 4:3 source iso and you can resize it to 16:9 e.g 720x448 really 16:10 or 1.61 AR and plays on the TV without squashing effect as it is cropped correctly by FU wizard. Just ignore the 'native' option which keeps the frames at 29.97ps(may leave duplicate frames/scene repetition) and select ivtc which 99.9% of the time comes out correct! Also FU Wizard does make mistakes with the auto detection of interlaced/telecined sources by offering 'native' when it should be offering the ivtc option instead. ![]() To avoid errors in Fairuse Wizard select 'normal' error checking, because if 'agressive is checked sometimes part of the film is discarded, eg you might miss an intro of 30 seconds as it is discarded as an error.
