Leiming's x264 GUI Last version [AVS/Other Media to x264 & AAC in MKV/MP4]

[leiming2006]

This is a GUI for x264 which is just like the x264VFW.

"x264.exe" is needed. Put "x264.exe" together with this GUI.

At first, without AviSynth x264.exe can only support uncompressed input.
If you want to use the audio encoder you must have "bepipe.exe" and select an audio encoder between "enc_aacplus.exe(dll)" or "neroaacenc(_sse2).exe" or both.
If you want to muxer the audio into final file, you need "mkvmerge.exe", "mp4box.exe" or "mp4creator.exe"
(STRONGLY RECOMMEND that use "No mux" mode, it's most stable, but it's not convenient anyway)
If these programs are not in the same directory with this gui, you may like to edit the "setpath.ini".

If you feed it non-avs file, you can choose an avs file in "avsinc" directory to deal with the input files.
So you can create avs files in "avsinc" directory as you want. ("fs" stands for the filename and "mfn" stands for the filename without its extension)

If this package damage your rights you can tell me, I'll stop offer the package at once.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Feature:
*Very VFW-liked.
*Add awful number of files once.
*Support AVS Script preset, so using non-avs files as input is possible.
*Conditional double passes, estimating the right Q means finishing in only one pass.
*Support audio encoding and automated muxing.
*Support automated double passes.
*Support shutdown after jobs done.
*Support log recoding.
*Can work as an audio encoding GUI
*Bitrate calculated automated.

What does the new button, checkbox and ect. from the VFW mean?
1.Bitrate page
Input file and output file: as it is
Refresh: check if there are new avs script presets and new config presets
checkbox Size: tick this, you can type the final size directly. the bitrate will be calculated when you press the "add" button.
The two combo boxes: in the left one there are avs script presets, in the right one there are config presets
The "S" and "L" button in the right: "S" stands for "save" and "L" stands for "Load", save config and load config. preset's name can be input into the right combo box
Files input: Add more than 1 files once, how to operate please see below.
logfile: If a file is in the text box, when encoding all information x264 output is recoded into the file.
2.More page
Checkbox Audio: tick this, the audio will be encoded, too.
The two combo boxes below: the left one is to select an audio encoder and the right one is to select a muxer.
*WARNING* I strongly recommend to use "no mux" mode, in case it didn't work well the file x264 output would be delete incorrectly. x264 always works slowly so when it happened it's very terrible.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to batch encoding:
1. Set all options well.
2. Press "Files input" button.
3. Select a folder to output.
4. Select input file, you can hold Ctrl key to select more than 1 file or press "Ctrl+A" to select all files in current folder.
5. Go to the "job" page and do what you should do.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New mode:
Automated double passes: as it says. with "fast" means in the first pass it's faster.
1P-CRF: means in the first pass it uses "--crf" to get the stat file.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is "Conditional Double Passes"?
"Conditional Double Passes", or "Size Mode", is used for those who use "Automated double passes(1P-CRF)" and the purpose of using "double passes" is to reach a certain size.
The difference between these is that the 1st pass of "Size mode" will output file and if the size of this file is in a certain range the 2nd pass will be cancelled to save time.
*NOTICE* The max. and min. size means only the video, and if you tick "Size", the "size" downer will take audio into consideration.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
About the Presets:
They are converted from MeGUI's Profiles manually, I can't guarantee that they are all converted correctly.
Please recheck it before usage.

USING THIS PROGRAM IS ALL AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
