@puffpio: go to the commandprompt, paste the following and post everything you see on screen here:

"C:\Program Files\besweet\BeSweet.exe" -core( -input "C:\work\fc\Formula Continental0001.ac3" -output "C:\work\fc\Formula Continental0001.mp4" -logfile "C:\work\fc\Formula Continental0001.besweet.log" ) -azid( -s stereo -c normal -L -3db ) -bsn( -2ch -vbr_streaming -codecquality_high -aacprofile_he ) -ota( -g max )

besweet log file looks the same.

I have the 2 nero dll's in the besweet directory...and also in program files\common files\ahead\audioplugins

so unsure what is happening...i did notice that when setting the besweet directory in the megui settings window, it used to popup a dialog box telling me to make sure the dll's where in the besweet directory twice (for the 2 different aac encoders). Now it only pops up once for the OTHER aac encoder..not the nero ones

[puffpio]

on further thought...it may be my installation that is screwed up..because I copied those nero aac dll's from one computer to another..do the dll's need to be registered?

I tried the audio encoding on the original computer and it worked

[charleski]

on further thought...it may be my installation that is screwed up..because I copied those nero aac dll's from one computer to another..do the dll's need to be registered?I'm pretty sure they look for a valid SN.

[puffpio]

I'm pretty sure they look for a valid SN.
well..there's my answer!

[m0rc1]

I'm running 0.2.3.1023 now and can't see any graphical glitches with Show Commandline. Could you post a picture showing this so i know what problem you're having?

I'm using 0.2.3.1b.
This is an old bug which seems to resurface from time to time, I already contributed a patch for it some month ago.
In some of the dialogs (for example XVID config) if you click on "Show commandline" using a >96 DPI video mode the dialog, insted to extend to accomodate the command line options, gets cut (this was because the resizing code was using absolute sizes instead of relatives ones, I haven't checked the new code now but I guess this is the same problem).
Other dialogs (like AVC config) are fine.

Davide.

[Doom9]

In some of the dialogs (for example XVID config) If somebody only mentioned that they were experiencing this in config dialog X and not Y, that would've been a huge help. Both charleski and myself only tested once, found it working and concluded what you're saying is simply not true. If you'd given details from the getgo, that would've got us thinking a bit more ;)

look for
private void commandlineVisible_CheckedChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
if (commandlineVisible.Checked)
{
this.Size = new Size(this.Width, 588);
this.showCommandLine();
}
else
{
this.Size = new Size(this.Width, 524);
}
}In the commandline region of every configuration dialog
If it contains these numbers, you need to replace it with

private void showCommandline_CheckedChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
if (showCommandline.Checked)
{
this.Size = new Size(this.Width, this.Height + commandline.Height + 10);
disableCommandlineGeneration = false;
showCommandLine();
}
else
{
disableCommandlineGeneration = true;
this.Size = new Size(this.Width, this.Height - commandline.Height - 10);
}
}

The x264 config dialog is already okay, as is the faac dialog, the others all need this change to make it work with granny fonts.

I'm not sure what causes the problems in the x246 build barring sourcode I can build, I can't test. I experienced the same with my own latest release, but changing the dpi and recompiling I suddenly had a build that worked.

[Sharktooth]

i'm doing it.
i'm also adding --no-fast-pskip to the "turbo" exclusions.

[Sharktooth]

changed sources: http://files.x264.nl/Sharktooth/?dir=./megui

[Doom9]

umm.. I downloaded your MeGUI-src.ChngdFls_0.2.3.1023.rar and put it into a directory where I previously put the 0.2.3.1b source. Is there just no way for us people with VS2k3?

[Sharktooth]

it should work ?!?
what's wrong?
In that way i can even convert the project to Sharp Develop.

[charleski]

The changes since 0.2.3.1b have included a few extra files. You might need to add them to your existing project, but that's easy enough.

[Doom9]

VS2k3 says: Unable to read the project file 'MeGUI.csproj'. The file 'D:\MeGUI\MeGUI.csproj' is not a valid project file. The project file is missing the 'VisualStudioProject' section.

[charleski]

Well I don't use VS2k3, but I'd have thought the way to integrate them would be to create a directory with just the old 0.2.3.1b files (including the old .csproj/.suo/.sln etc files) - that should load into VS2k3 since it created the .csproj itself. Then just copy the .cs files over from the new build and insert them into the project from within VS2k3.

[Sharktooth]

that's exactly the way i suggested (and how i do it).

[Doom9]

here's something that might be useful for weird errors that people sometimes report: keep all the data read from stdout and stderr in a buffer that's discarded when the process properly completes, but dump it in case of an abort (or offer to abort it, or via a setting) so that we know what actually happened behind the scenes.

[Sharktooth]

new patch: 0.2.3.1023b adds wpredb to the turbo exclusions list.
sources and bins are here: http://files.x264.nl/Sharktooth/?dir=./megui

also superdump told me 29.97FPS is 30000/1001 (thats 29.97002997002997...).
so this part:
if (this.muxFPS.SelectedIndex != -1)
job.Settings.Framerate = Double.Parse(muxFPS.Text);
if (this.muxFPS.SelectedIndex != -1 || isInputMP4())
{
if (this.enableSplit.Checked && !splitSize.Text.Equals(""))
job.Settings.SplitSize = Int32.Parse(this.splitSize.Text) * 1024;
job.Commandline = gen.generateMP4BoxCommandline(this.settings.Mp4boxPath, job.Settings, job.Input, job.Output);
}
should be rewritten to accomodate that change.
I'll do it in the next patch.

[dimzon]

also superdump told me 29.97FPS is 30000/1001 (thats 29.97002997002997...).
Can anybody tell me why not just 2997/100 ?

[Sharktooth]

coz 2997/1000 produces a 1 frame desync every 10 hours that's about 33ms.

[redfordxx]

Can anybody tell me why not just 2997/100 ?
Standard could be 30fps and 24fps or 30000fpms and 24000fpms.
But for some reason both was it divided by 1.001. I read some article on net, can't remember the reason, only remember the reason was mentioned as a stupid one.
So the standard aproximation is 23.976 and 29.97.

[Doom9]

umm.. I'd liek to see a reason for making any change to the framerate other than irrelevant technicalities (1 frame every 10 hours is irrelevant.. you don't encode a 10 hour bit as one piece). And it stands to be proven that mp4box even accepts such inputs and handles them properly.

[Sharktooth]

well... four line of code are not really a problem...
just adding:
if (this.muxFPS.SelectedIndex == 0)
job.Settings.Framerate = 24000/1001;
if (this.muxFPS.SelectedIndex == 3)
job.Settings.Framerate = 30000/1001;
should do the trick.

[Doom9]

still waiting to see any proof that my code is flawed in any way. If I look at my AviSynth scripts from DVDs, they all have a precise framerate of 23.976.. so muxing at any other framerate is going to cause problems, not the other way round.

[tritical]

Sorry if this is somewhat off topic, but an avisynth script with dvd source using dvd2avi/mpeg2decX or dgindex/dgdecode for decoding will have a framerate of 29.970 and not 30000/1001 because mpeg2decX/dgdecode have always set it that way. Actually, what happens is that dvd2avi and dgindex pick up the correct rate (30000/1001, 24000/1001, etc...), but when they write the framerate into the d2v file they multiply it up by 1000 and then round to int. mpeg2decX/dgdecode then set the framerate in avisynth by using the value in the d2v file as the numerator and 1000 for the denominator. The more interesting thing is that mpeg2decX and dgdecode (prior to version 1.4 or 1.4.1, can't remember exactly) had an internal maximum number of frames of 1,000,000... which if you calculate it out is the exact point that you end up with a 1 frame desync from using 29.970 instead of 30000/1001. An assumefps(30000,1001) or assumefps(24000,1001) in the avs file can fix the discrepancy... I think this was once on the list of things to be fixed in dgdecode but might have gotten lost somewhere along the way.

[m0rc1]

If somebody only mentioned that they were experiencing this in config dialog X and not Y, that would've been a huge help.

Sorry about that, but I had not realized it myself (until it was too late).

Hey fellas,

This is an issue I've had for awhile but I kept forgeting to post my log. Upon completing an automated 2pass or 3pass, the muxjob always appears to try to run twice. Its not that big of an inconvenience coz my file comes out fine but it is an issue nonethless. Here is a job I ran last nite and that shows the symptoms of the issue.

@haubrija: am I correct to assume that the only jobs you have in the queue are those 5 and that you have not done any moving around, deleting of existing jobs, or anything the like? If you have, please share the complete contents of your jobs directory (zip and attach please).

Also, after the mux job runs for the first time, what is the status of the job in the queue? You can prevent the second start if while muxing you press stop.. this will stop the queue.

Doom9,

No messing around with my jobs. I set up the auto 3 pass mode and press start. That's it. No reason to move jobs. So your assumption was correct.

I'm not really sure I understand your second question. I run my encoding on a seperate machine that I'm not in front of while its encoding so I'm not entirely sure what the status of the jobs are while running.

[Doom9]

well.. I need you there at the end of the third pass so that when muxing starts, you can press stop and see what happens. But muxing only takes a few minutes. In fact, if the intermediary files are still there, you could just double click on job 1-5 to reactivate it, and run it again, see what happens then.

[haubrija]

Ok... at work right now but will run a short test tommorrow and test my findings

[m0rc1]

This may well be way off topic but I don't know where else to ask for it: the AviReader class used in MeGUI is part of a larger library or has been written from scratch (I'm asking since I'd need its complementary AviWriter class - I'm writing a small app to convert movie files for the pocketpc).

Thanks,
Davide.

[Doom9]

the AviReader class used in MeGUI is part of a larger library or has been written from scratchmohita, author of mpeg4modifier (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=78050) submitted it when I asked for a way to open avisynth files in C#. mpeg4modifier also needs to write files, so perhaps that'll help you. Keep in mind though, GPL means your project also needs to be released under the GPL.

You can also find a lot of info on codeproject: http://www.codeproject.com/cs/media/aviFileWrapper.asp

[Sharktooth]

I added the support for the latest Nero encoder (the one in the 7.0.1.x).

Wow, Sharktooth, you are genius, indeed. Nice work.

One question: is NAAC Nero HE-AAC v2 audio codec?

Can you tell us, what is your further plans with MeGUI new look.

[Sharktooth]

@acidsex: not yet, im still having some troubles with loading the msstyles.
i didnt also finish the "Select skin" dialog.

@KRP: yes.
MeGUI will have a set of skins based on msstyles. that requires full styles and external fonts. just like changing the style in winxp.
also, i'll bypass the signature check so you can use non-official MS styles. Those styles will be completely unbound or bound (your choice) from the actual windows style.

@klicker4546: i'll look at it.

[Sharktooth]

0.2.1.1023e: some little changes to fix the dialogs with Segoe font (Windows Vista default font).

I've already tried to debug it with the help of doom9. But I haven't heard anything of him after my last post.

And... uhmm... I didn't mean to be rude or anything. :o

Alright, found and fixed the problem. It seems mencoder now indicates fps using 2 digits after the decimal point and my fps parsing code was written to handle integer fps values.

I'm attaching an updated VideoEncoder and Encoder class, that also prevents some other crashes that could happen when things change and my commandline parsing can't keep up.

Well that's really great! Now I can enjoy my holidays! ;)

Did you try the debugging method I had suggested? It breaks then in the correct line:

return (double)Int32.Parse(fps);

Otherwise the the application terminates without giving the slightest hint what's wrong.
