The progress is directly calculated by MeGUI and not taken from the x264 commandline.. that's why you have that.

Thanks for the info. I thought it was probably due to our "evil" comma

Do you mean by same problem as the previous bug the 'no jobs waiting. nothing to do' error message? That hasn't been fixed yet

Using deinterlace detection on a 4:3 vob file, I got the following error: "unexpected value". Here is the log file:

What did I say in my first post about this? &$%£

There are some basic tactics to adopt in diagnosing any fault, and the first is to isolate it. Remove anything that might be contributing to the problem until you have the most basic configuration possible that still fails. Obviously fft3dgpu won't survive user-switching (!!!!) - the status of the GPU is not preserved across user-states. The miracle of fft3dgpu is that it works at all, as it's running on such a wide range of different hardware while interfacing through DirectX while the host processor and bus is running flat-out. If it works, great, if it doesn't just use the original host version.

@Pasqui: as soon as I upload my latest sources, the FPS indication will be back for those locales not using a dot as decimal separator.

Doom9 · 15th January 2006, 01:05

hot damn.. CVS is screwing me again.. tortoise crashes when I try to run an update and pretty much anything.. how the heck am I suppose to add my changes now?

berrinam · 15th January 2006, 01:09

Which version are your sources based on?

Doom9 · 15th January 2006, 01:11

based on the build I last checked in.. so that's 2012. I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to do now.. I have 28 changes files.. I managed to add the new ones, and that doesn't break anything, but I'm scared as hell to do anything else and break everything.

berrinam · 15th January 2006, 01:39

Gee, 2012 is quite a long time ago...

One thing you could do, but I know you're not going to like it, is start a new folder with the latest source, and individually merge each file (assuming you have WinMerge, it's not TOO hard a job).

Alternatively, I've just generated a patch from version 2012 to 2023, so perhaps that could be applied to your version. Maybe that would be slightly less work

Doom9 · 15th January 2006, 01:40

@berrinam: please have a look here: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=95863&page=63 . And do you have MSN?

Thanks Doom9, it's working fine now

AviSynth script generator has a cosmetic bug:

In Mpeg Options you can read Colour Correctio.
Obviously it should be Colour Correction.

Well, I just tried it in 0.2.3.2024 and MeGUI still does crash silently.
I should copy that Decomb.dll somewhere.

EDIT:
Okay, now I know what's going wrong.
It's not the decomb.dll, but it seems that AviSynth doesn't support Unicode characters in directory names.
Look, I'm using a spanish Windows system, and the 11th line in the temporary autodeinttemp-avs.avs fails:

<snip>
file="C:\Documents and Settings\AgentX\Configuración local\Temp\interlace.log"
<snip>
c = WriteFile(c, file, "a", "sep", "b")
<snip>

Being a spanish system, there's a "ó" and a several spaces in the filename.
One of these make trouble.
BTW, I'm using AviSynth 2.56 (sep 4 2005).
Temporary solution, use file="%SystemDrive%\interlace.log".

ie. user installs it in "c:\windows" and uninstaller removes whole "c:\windows".

That's not a GUI bugreport though, is it? However, it teaches people the hard way that the windows directory is not meant for software installation

foxyshadis · 15th January 2006, 13:14

Odd, though, sharktooth fixed that ages ago. (Someone else did the same to their system32 folder.) He must have updated the installer or something.

Doom9 · 15th January 2006, 13:24

btw, here are two known and already fixed (not yet in the CVS) bugs:

1) FPS indication for xvid_encraw is completely wrong in the queue
2) elapsed and projected end time can go out of whack in video encoding and muxing.

See if you can break version 0.2.3.2026

I've put a lot of error catching around, because no AviSynth bug should cause MeGUI to crash.

I would like to, but on Sourceforge there's still 0.2.3.24

starkebn · 16th January 2006, 06:32

In the Audio Encoding section setting a encoding profile then switching to Audio Radio button 2 will set the same profile. Changing the profile will then also change it for radio button 1.

In the MP4 muxer Audio section setting a name then switching to radio button 2 will keep the same name. Changing the name will then also change it for radio button 1.

This happens in 2.3.2024 as well.

Avish · 16th January 2006, 07:58

I hope I've posted in the correct thread...

I'm using all the latest versions: meGUI 14th Jan Version, DGIndex 1.4.6b4, x264 13th Jan Version.

Here is the script created using AviSynth script generator :

LoadPlugin("N:\Softwares\Audio-Video-related\Video related\DVD_related\XviD_Encoding_Tools\dgmpgdec146b4\dgdecode.dll")
mpeg2source("M:\DVDs\Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade\Indi_3.d2v")
tfm(d2v="M:\DVDs\Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade\Indi_3.d2v").tdecimate()
#crop
LanczosResize(720,320)
#denoise

Here is what MeGui says after doing Deinterlacing Analysis:
Source type: Source is declared telecined.
Source is declared tff by a margin of 234 to 15.

& then it automatically chooses TIVTC option...

When i press preview...there is nothing in it...just a thin black stripe...

Then I saved the script, queued it, clicked Srart...it finished in 1-2 seconds giving me this error:

avis [error]: unsupported input format (DIB )
could not open input file 'M:\DVDs\Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade\Indi_3.avs'
desired video bitrate of this job: 1298 kbit/s - obtained video bitrate: 0 kbit/s

Here is a complete log from meGUI:

Next job job2 is a video job. encoder commandline:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I searched what is TIVTC in the forum, downloaed it & put the dll in avisynth plugin folder & also in the meGUI folder...but still the same thing...same error...

Just 2 days back I successfully encoded War of the Worlds using the meGUI ...but this time its not working... am I doing somthing wrong guys ?? pls Help me...
