No x264 console output

[jcsston]

Has anyone had problems with no x264 console output?
When I run x264.exe plain, it displays the help. However when I encode with it nothing shows in the console window. I've tried the builds on x264.nl and Sharktooths build.
When I use MeGUI, the megui-x264.exe uses all the cpu with none left for x264.exe. I think this is direct result of x264.exe not giving any output to the console.

BTW The output .mp4 is ok, I'm just not getting any progress report. :confused:

Thanks,

=edit=
well, x264 displays correctly on my computer. i'm using winxp and not the latest version of x264.
what version are you using? would you try some old builds and see?

regards.

try --progress

I've tried older builds to 387 and I've tried --progress.

I've also started x264.exe with a debugger attached and set breakpoints on the _printf and _sprintf functions, sprintf is only called 3 times at the very start of the encode. :(

/me goes to download the source code.

I tracked it down to a rogue AviSynth plugin.
I downloaded the source code and built a Debug build and noticed that the console output stopped working as soon as the input .avs was opened. :)

Did it trap the calls to printf? :confused:

Me too :-o ... I already thought I'd be too dumb, good to hear that there seems to be a real problem. Unfortunately, I don't know the cause either
