This is a tool for making Self Extracting EXE files from 7-ZIP files. The SFX modules are taken from the 7-zip package. You can choose the SFX icon and the type of SFX module (Standard or Installer). The SFX icon will be replaced with the icon you choose (using ResourceHacker) and the SFX stub will be compressed with UPX before attaching it to the 7z archive.

Important

There are some distribution restrictions with ResourceHacker so I can’t include it in this package. Get hold of a copy of ResourceHacker from here :-

http://delphi.icm.edu.pl/ftp/tools/ResHack.zip

1) Unzip it
2) Rename the resource hacker executable to ResHacker.exe
3) Place ResHacker.exe in the TOOLS folder

This version fixes the video quality issue that was there in the previous version. The -qmin and -qmax parameters were being ignored and the video was being encoded at a quantizer level of 31. This caused a big drop in quality.
In this version the option for choosing the encoding mode has been removed. Now there is only a fixed quantizer mode and a single slider which controls the video quality. There are many minor bugfixes.

This is a major update. There are many changes in this version which are listed below.

• This version includes a copy of MediaInfo. So you can view the video properties for the files that you add to the file list. Adding a lot of files to the list can take some time, so there is an option to turn off this feature on the preferences page.
• There are new profiles for converting video for Ipods and PSPs. These profiles were collected from various forums, tutorials and blogs.
• Now there is an optional progress window which will show you the conversion progress. You can choose between the progress window and the FFmpeg command window. The progress indication is not very accurate so its better to choose the FFmpeg command window.
• The file list has been moved to a separate window as you can see in the screenshot.
• There are new options for cropping & padding the video and for delaying the audio stream.
• A help file in PDF format is included.
• A number of bugs were fixed.

GVC v2008.2 has been released. There are too many changes to be listed. The FFMPEG build included with v2008.2 is same as the previous version. The GUI has been completely reorganized and now is more convenient than before. A small 122 KB update is available for people who installed the previous version.

Please note :

The GUI looks best on a screen with a DPI of 120 (large). If the fonts look too large or too small on your screen, then go to the “Preferences” page and adjust the font settings. Recommended fonts are Verdana, SegoeUI, Lucida Unicode and Tahoma.
