VirtualDubMod is an open-source video capture and processing tool for Microsoft Windows, based on Avery Lee's VirtualDub.
History
The final version, 1.5.10.2, was released on 29 August 2005. Version 1.5.10.2 (build 2542) was released on 21 February 2006. In February 2005, "fccHandler", an administrator on the VirtualDub forums, claimed that development had been discontinued. A version labeled "VirtualDubMod 1.6.0.0 SURROUND" was released by a company called Aud-X in April 2006. A version 1.5.10.3 (build 2550) was released by www.virtualdub-fr.org (created by "Sparad0x") on 1 January 2008.
Features
VirtualDubMod merged several specialized forks of VirtualDub posted on the Doom9 forums. Added features included Matroska (MKV) support, OGM support, and MPEG-2 support.
One notable feature that remains missing in VirtualDubMod is the ability to program timed video captures, which was present in one VirtualDub fork called VirtualDubVCR.
Despite the abandonment of development of VirtualDubMod, some of its features can be added to VirtualDub through input plugins and ACM codecs provided by users on VirtualDub forums.
