AccuSplit (screen_shot) is designed to rapidly and reliably split large files and computer videos into smaller segments to allow for easy archival to external media like DVD, CD-R, Zip™ or floppy disks. These file segments can then be recombined at a later time into an exact copy of the original file. The application was initially developed to split very large video files into smaller segments so that they could be moved from the hard drive onto inexpensive CD/DVD disks, thereby freeing up significant hard disk space. However it is capable of segmenting and then correctly reconstructing ANY file.

To insure that the file reconstructed from the file segments exactly matches the original source file the application incorporates an advanced cryptographic algorithm that computes an MD5 Message Digest for both the original and reconstructed files. An MD5 Message Digest match between these files indicates with absolute certainty that no data was lost during the file split and reconstruction process. Additionally, if absolute data integrity as well as foolproof error-correction capabilities are desired AccuSplit also includes the capability to create RAID-formatted file segments. In this mode the software creates file segments that are embedded with a very powerful RAID-style error correction mechanism that allows it to correct for data errors on damaged media. Errors ranging from a single corrupted data byte on a scratched CD to an entirely missing file segment are fully correctable with this option.

AccuSplit also includes a special Video Smart Split mode that can split AVI (including DIVX / XVID / INDEO / DV-AVI), WMV, WMV-HD (720p, 1080i, 1080p), DVR-MS, and MPEG-1 format files (including Video-CD) into "independently playable" segments without a lengthy video re-rendering process. Now you can split your large video files into CD-sized (or any other size) segments and play them back directly from the CD - no file reconstruction is required. The software also includes a Video Preview option (screen_shot) that allows the user to manually adjust the location of the file split points - avoiding splits in the middle of an important scene.

AccuSplit has been designed to run as a stand-alone executable. There is nothing to install. Simply extract the application and its help files from the downloaded Zip file and double-click on the AccuSplit.EXE file to begin program execution. The application runs under Windows™ [95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP/Server2003/Vista] and doesn’t include any of the annoying AdWare or NagWare plug-ins that are common to many of today’s shareware applications. AccuSplit also includes a full user help file.

NOTE: Windows 95/98/ME users - To split AVI format files using the AccuSplit "Video File Smart Split" option you must have Microsoft DirectX version 8.0A or later installed.


ACCUSPLIT'S ADVANCED VIDEO CAPABILITIES:

  • The Video Smart Split mode supports almost all of the typical multimedia formats. For a complete list of formats that are supported click here.

  • The specialized Smart Split technology allows it to quickly split your video files into independently playable segments without any time consuming re-rendering of the video content. Since no re-rendering is performed the quality of your original video is preserved.

  • The Video Smart Split mode offers complete support for both Type-1 and Type-2 format DV-AVI files (Digital Camcorder).

  • Support for DV-AVI format files that utilize 4-channel audio.

  • Transcoding capability for DV-AVI files. Easily convert your DV files between the Type-1 and Type-2 DV formats.

  • Full Command Line support allows AccuSplit to perform unattended operations within batch script files.

  • The Preview Split Points window offers multiple types of automatic frame detection. Keyframes, Black Frames, and Fade-Point Frames can be automatically detected to allow for easy selection of the video split points.

  • The Preview window includes a frame capture capability – enabling the user to save individual video frames to bitmap ( *.BMP ) format files.

  • A User Options tab gives users the capability to customize many of AccuSplit’s internal parameters.

DOWNLOADS:

The free Shareware Version of AccuSplit limits users to a maximum file segment size of 100MB, with a maximum of eight file segments allowed. This is enough to split an 800MB file into eight segments and store it onto two recordable CDs or eight 100MB Zip™ disks.

Download your free shareware copy of AccuSplit v4.5 here:  AccuSplit.zip  (275KB)


The Full Version of the software has no limitations on either segment size or the number of segments you can create. With this version you could take the same 800MB file and split it into 650MB segments for easy CD storage or if you were a masochist split it into eight hundred 1MB pieces for storage onto floppies. The Full Version of AccuSplit is also capable of working with extremely large files. It has no problem handling files whose size exceeds 2.1GB and has been used to successfully split and reconstruct files with sizes in excess of 150GB.
