Run the AMF Builder in Batch Mode
amfbuilder [input file] [output file] [encoder type] <options>
- input file
- The path to the timing file or the source AMF file
- output file
- The path to and the name of the output file
- encoder type
- The encoder type, which can be JPEG, LZ, or LZ8
- /Sx
- The path to the timing file or the source AMF file
- output file
- Use subsampling. "x" can be 2, 4, or 8.
- /G
- Encode the output as greyscale.
- /E
- Use edge enhancement (applies only if /G is also specified).
- /Qxx
- JPEG quality setting. Valid range for "xx" is 1 to 99 (applies only if encoder type is JPEG).
- /D
- Dither 8-bit output. This operation is very slow, but produces excellent 256 color images (applies only if the encoder type is LZ8).
When you run the AMF builder in batch mode using these arguments, you will only see the progress bar window that disappears when file write is done and the program self-terminates. You cannot specify titles, but if the source file is an AMF file with titles already in it, the AMF builder will use those.
Example
amfbuilder d:\test\test.tim d:\test\output.amf JPEG /G /E /S2 /Q99
