Daily MEncoder Builds

[Amnon82]

Hi there! I started to port the linux mencoder version to windows.

I'll do this everyday (... if I found some time).

Here is the latest version:

Download Mencoder CVS 01.04.04 MinGW Build optimized for AMD and Intel (ca. 1.50 MB) - fast download server 80k!

Download Mencoder CVS 01.04.04 CygWIN Build optimized for AMD and Intel (ca. 2.00 MB) - fast download server 80k!

All builds are upxed and in WinACE 2.5 packed.

@Amnon92,
Below are my commandline to encode to VCD

First, i try with old mencoder (5.64 MB or 5,918,208 bytes ) .I can craete file D:\TestVCD.mpg but Nero deny to burn this file(Non compatible issue).

Later,i try the latest MencoderDRPEncBuild120304.exe.Encodeing stop at the beginning and report error(For WinXP).

Kindly look into my commandline if there is any thing gone wrong.

Best regards,

@itcth I checked Your script. It was ok. I used -no sound.

So here is the screenshot of your script using CVS 12.03.04:



I got a 6.347 KB file.

then I used my DRPEnc 0.2.0.1 to create a VCD script.

Here the screenshot of the 1pass script:



I got a 2.569 KB file with the same quality like Yours...

Here the screenshot of the 2pass script:



I encoded it without my special filters.
Then I got a file with 3.884 KB. This file has the best quality and blows Yours strait away.

I uploaded all the scripts and the sample I created with DRPEnc to my server.

You can download it here .

Try it out. On my AMD it works! Maybe You have a Intel and my builds don't work there...

Can we expect a Pentium4 build soon, I will appreciate very much this.
My P4 @ 3500/1000FSB give me 77fps with CCE, so I waiting the other...

Thanks!

@Amnon82
Very exciting.I will test it now and let you know the results.

Best regards,

@Amnon82

Report #1..
I test vcd compatibility of your encoded file "vcd2pass.mpg.m1v" by mutilplexing in TMPGEnc(Without any new encoding of course) and burn with Nero.Hey,it does work.This is the first time i ever burn VCD with Nero without complain after many encoding with menocder.

I am to going to test further by enccoding with my Intel Pentium 4.


Best regards,

[Amnon82]

I've only a AMD Athlon XP 2800+ (Batron)

So my builds are with MMX, MMX2, 3DNow, 3DNowEx, SSE Support.
I can't add SSE2 to this build. Otherwise I can build a build with
CPU-Selfdetection. But this will be slower.

Also I can create a guide for compiling MEncoder. So everybody can compile it.

Also it is possible that I host this builds.

Encoding stop after encoding for a while.Please see details here;

[itcth]

Follows by this picture;



After encoding for a while this error occurs.



Do you think there are some problem with my Intel CPU ?

[celtic_druid]

--enable-sse2, compiles fine on my XP.

[Amnon82]

@ itcth: Download DRPEnc 0.2.0.2 and it will be fine.

@ celtic_druid: THX, I'll check it right now!

@ all: compiling guide is out.

I got it:

./configure --enable-largefiles --enable-mmx --enable-mmx2 --enable-3dnow 
--enable-3dnowex --enable-sse --enable-sse2 --enable-static --with-codecsdir=F:/mplayer/codecs

I upload the newest build with SSE2 enabled.

[itcth]

@Amnon82

Yes,now everything work like magic.You are the man.

Many thanks.

(Do you know it is almost 4.00 am here?)

[Amnon82]

I'm running to 21:55

can You wait for the new version of mencoder?

[Amnon82]

Uploading new MEncoder Version optimized for AMD and Intel.
Added the new MEncoder Version to the installer version of DPREnc 0.2.0.2.

Have fun with it.

... and I know that I'm the MAN ...

[unplugged]

Thank you Amnon, I see you are working much actively

[Amnon82]

Yes so I'm...

workaholic...

[Amnon82]

The last working MEncoder Build is still 14.03.04 - 20:55.
I tried today two builds. Both crashed on my system.
Tomorrow is also a day.

Lets see what 16.03.04 will do

[unplugged]

What you mean, are you trying more aggressive code/CPU optimizations?
BTW, do you know if recent GCC (3.3 ?) can generate code that take advantage of HyperThreading?

[Amnon82]

I did it like the last build. But it crashed. I didn't changed my configure line. Lets see what happend today. For Hyperthreading is till now nothing build in. Maybe they add this feature. I'll check again the source.

[Amnon82]

No new CVS Version at ftp://ftp.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/cvs/.

Something strange is going on...
