I stopped using my old versions and upgraded to the latest versions: MeGUI 0.2.3.1b and x264 r_364a. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get 2-pass to work now. This is the MeGUI log:
Code:
Next job job2-1 is a video job. encoder commandline:

Then, I tried running it from the command prompt:

Am I using some incompatible settings or something? It was working perfectly just earlier today with r_331 and MeGui 0.2.2.6 (I think)... I'm baffled.
