1918 is no integer multiple of 16. So you would have to switch from "MOD 16" to "MOD 2" to allow this width without resizing.

Some border values are just not worth the cropping; you don't have to trust automatically gathered values blindly, you (as human) are able to decide better.

The main window is for sources to be decoded, processed, and encoded. There is probably no dts decoder for AviSynth available yet, and certainly no free dts encoder after processing; you may convert dts to AC3 beforehand with eac3to.

Furthermore, it is possible to multiplex the unprocessed dts into MKV after the video conversion finished. But then you should not cut the video, or it would be async.

Don't exist for DTS-HD but yes for standard DTS.

Not sure if I get you, but use OneClick and select Encode:Never for the DTS audio track and it will be copied (not possible for all input /output containers)

If you do something more elaborate with the video, just run the video converting job, and when finished, use the "MKV Muxer" from the "Muxer" submenu in the "Tools" menu to multiplex the converted video with the original dts audio.

I doubt any of the other muxers would be suitable to multiplex dts into its container.

Haven't used the program for a few months. Went to convert an MP4 today and noticed something weird. I used the File Indexer like usual, and MeGUI created the .ffindex file and the track_1_.avs file. The AviSynth creator window popped up and the video input was set to the .mp4 file. What is the ffindex file for now that MeGUI no longer loads it?

Usually, if you want FFMS2 to load yourmovie.mp4, it will detect that yourmovie.mp4.ffindex already exists, and use it.

It is not similar to DGMPGDec where the *.d2v index file must be opened instead of the MPEG2 video source; FFMS2 gets the name of the source file and derives the index file name from it (except for a custom index file name, this would have to be added as additional parameter then).

Beside the MKV container M2TS can be used to store DTS(-HD) files in MeGUI.

And before I forget it once again - thank you very much for your very good support for various questions/tools (not only MeGUI of course) in several forums. Much appreciated!

I have a question.when i use MeGUI it does not use 100% of CPU only 40% ,what should i do ?

There are so many different reasons, and so many possible answers ... many already given during the last months and years.

MeGUI is not involved in the conversion anyway. It is only a user interface to build the conversion script and execute the encoder.

If the encoder (possibly x264) is unable to use the majority of the CPU time, it has to wait for something.

May be the elaborate filtering in the script (could be improved by using MT manually). A bad relation between script and encoder CPU intensity is one of the most probable reasons.

May also be the hardware (slow reading from harddisk, slow copying in memory, slow transfer from the GPU if using DGDecNV).

It can be also closely related to script.
I use Core2duo E4700, SetMTmode(3,0)/Source/SetMTmode(2) and Slower X264 preset.

I get near perfect CPU utilization for MCTD (very low/low, gpu=false, ncpu=1), but 20-25% CPU idling for QMCTG ( various presets ).

I have not yet experimented enough with threads and memorymax to optimize it, just realized SetMTmode(3,3) without increasing Setmemorymax(768) did not seem to help.

Interesting question - what is good relation range ?

For compressing of my "record/view/delete" DVB-T queue ( If my disk free size does not like the queue size )
I often use fast scripts and Normal-Fast(-Faster) X264 preset.
I get typically 1/5-1/4 of CPU for scripts and 3/4-4/5 of CPU for X264.

For heavy archive processing by MCTD ( a/o recently also QMCTG ) I usually use Slow-Slower X264 preset.
I get typically 3/5-4/5 of CPU for scripts, 1/5-2/5 of CPU for X264.

MeGUI pass1 does not use Full cpu only 40%, but (pass2) use 100% of cpu. What should i do ? I want to use 100% of cpu (pass1)

You could use the parameter --slow-firstpass to waste more time and electricity.

Or you could learn instead that less than 100% CPU consumption in the first pass is not at all a reason to worry. May be better for your blood pressure.

Manually: Add an instance of Tweak() with matching parameters to the generated script.

This appears to be an inexact approximation of ColorYUV(levels="TV->PC"); if you do so, you may have to add the "coring" parameter to many other filters.

If you feel like the luminance and chrominance range is wrong when you play movies, your graphic driver might be set up to the wrong range. Fixing this should be prefered over recoding bloated video content.
