Virtualdub Mod Download
Vida Hubbert
You only need this one file if all you want to do is run VirtualDub. Unzip andstart virtualdub.exe - requires Windows 98+ or NT4.0+, 80486 or higher CPU, and16MB of memory. (Note: Extractthe full contents to a directory. Don't run it directly from the zip file.)
I have about 50 small videos (and a few large videos). I want to convert them all with the SAME settings. Its basically change audio to X with Y bitrate, change video to xvid. and do full processing on the video and audio. Then force the FPS to 15 since every program i tried (including virtualdub) thinks it 0.3 FPS.
The virtualdub deshaker and Blender work each quite different
Virtual dub uses a fine grid of markers and from which an x% needs to be OK or else deshaking for that frame is skipped, also you can configure some center area, it works pretty fast (well it still takes time), based on the grid of markers the deshaker can tell how the camera has moved (basedupon the fine grid of point data).
if you are going to use tracking in blender. if you are only going to stabilize the footage you dont need all the 3d prep processing. either way keep a copy of your original footage incase you change your mind. by the way you just need to instal quicktime into virtualdub. virtual dub once set up can read .mov
