Greetings. I need to update some information about the Lazarus program VirtualU. VirtualU is a Windows platform that makes movies and the newest version should be a pristine, perfectly functioning example for download.
All bugs, even some obscure ones, have been fixed and VirtualU has no memory leaks! If you downloaded an earlier version that you had problems with then I offer my apologies. This program continues under development and all problems are addressed as they become known. Some new features have been added (lightening or darkening videos and resizing videos) and many improvements have been made.
I also apologize for that fact that VirtualU slows down as project length, size, import number and project complexity increase but there's really no way around that. I tested and used all the fastest routines that I could find or come up with and I tried to make VirtualU be as load independent as possible. I tried to preserve speed whenever possible. The end result is pretty good considering what the program must sometimes do. You're talking about up to seven potentially large movie imports being in the same possibly complex project with huge numbers of frames per import that need to be processed. The end result is what really matters and VirtualU provides good quality AVIs, MP4s, MOVs, MPGs and WMVs, with the latter 4 formats providing very small file sized but high quality videos.
VirtualU (VirtualU1) is freely available but VirtualU2 isn't available because I never could get two versions of OpenSSL to work and so thus I'm stymied in my communications attempts. If there's anyone out there who is strong in Free Pascal or any language communications then I'd like to talk to you. Perhaps I could get you points in VirtualU. I don't own it. I'm just the author who has to huckster this stuff: fingalmcginnis@gmail.com
Thank you, Lazarus.
These are all good, solid links.
