File Indexer Problem (FFMSIndex and DGIndex)
Hello all,
I am having a strange problem with a friend's computer. I did search the forum but couldn't find the answer. We have some MPG files that we want to convert to AVI. MPG files have MP2 audio, 352x288 resolution and 25 FPS. I use one click encode on my computer and have no issues at all. But his computer does not encode the files, it fails at the beginning of the indexing process because it tries to use FFMSIndex instead of DGIndex. If we try to use the file indexer tool manually (CTRL+F2) it only allows the use of FFMSIndex and the other options are all grayed out. If we run the DGIndex manually from within the MeGUI folders and load the D2V file manually into MeGUI, it encodes fine. Same MPG files work correctly on my computer. I have made a simple One Click profile. I am pasting it below. Just wondering if there is a way to add a line that will force the use of DGIndex in this profile or to another config file: Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <GenericProfileOfOneClickSettings xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <Name>MPG Conversion</Name> <Settings> <VideoProfileName>XviD: *scratchpad*</VideoProfileName> <AudioProfileName>LAME MP3: *scratchpad*</AudioProfileName> <AvsProfileName>AviSynth: *scratchpad*</AvsProfileName> <PrerenderVideo>false</PrerenderVideo> <DontEncodeAudio>migrated</DontEncodeAudio> <AudioEncodingModeString>Never</AudioEncodingModeString> <DontEncodeVideo>false</DontEncodeVideo> <SignalAR>false</SignalAR> <AutomaticDeinterlacing>false</AutomaticDeinterlacing> <AutoCrop>true</AutoCrop> <KeepInputResolution>true</KeepInputResolution> <OutputResolution>720</OutputResolution> <Filesize xsi:nil="true" /> <SplitSize xsi:nil="true" /> <ContainerCandidates> <string>AVI</string> <string>MKV</string> </ContainerCandidates> <UseChaptersMarks>false</UseChaptersMarks> </Settings> </GenericProfileOfOneClickSettings> Thanks to all in advance.

The D2V indexer can only be used when the video type is "MPEG-1 VIDEO" or "MPEG-2 VIDEO" and the container format is "MPEG-TS", "MPEG-PS", "MPEG VIDEO" or "BDAV". Your file seems to be a different kind of video which can also be used with the indexer so please report the requested information and I can enable this kind of file as well.

Hello,
Sorry for the delayed answer. I had to wait for my friend to send me the screenshots. Unfortunately, I can't upload a sample because it's copyrighted material. Additionally, same files work fine on my computer with MeGUI. DGIndex works fine. Here they are: MeGUI Log: Media Info: |

I cannot find the relevant information in the screenshots. Required is the "MediaInfo" part of your file in the MeGUI log. You can get this part e.g. when you open the file with the file indexer. Please upload it somewhere or post it here.

Ok. I've sent you the link for the sample.
Here's the breakdown for the sample: On my computer: One click -> Works fine and encodes it properly. Regular MeGUI Method -> When loaded in the file indexer, DGIndex and FFMSindex are both available. DGIndex is selected by default. If I choose FFMSIndex it gives me a warning saying that I should use DGIndex. On my friend's computer: One click -> Generates the same error message from before. Regular MeGUI Method -> When loaded in the file indexer, only FFMSindex is available. DGIndex is grayed out. And it doesn't work if we add to the queue and start the process (same error as above) Old School Way -> Run the DGIndex separately from MeGUI folder, Index the file. Call the D2V from within MeGUI using AVS Script Creator, save the AVS file, encode. Works like a charm. We have many MPG files with the same properties. All are doing the same thing on his computer. |

Mhm, I did not read your first posts very well. After your last post it is coming to my mind that only your friend's MeGUI build has this problem. Sorry. Btw your sample is working for me, too.
Please update both your MeGUI builds to 2138. Then compare the log information in the first block ("version"). Does all files have the same attributes? And also please extract this file to a new directory on your friend's machine: http://sourceforge.net/projects/megu...d?source=files Try it with this installation. I only want to be sure that no other settings/files in the current installation is causing the problem. As a last step - after you have reported back - I will create a special debug build of MeGUI in order to track down the problem. |

Thanks Zathor.
Where do we find the build 2138 (the link you've provided is still 2112)? It's the identical copy that we both have that is failing. We've tried to run it on a different folder and let the updater download everything again. Still no go. Quote:

So you copied your MeGUI folder to his machine? |

He is not available at the moment. Once I talk to him, I'll tell him to update it this way.
Previously he was using the same files that are available from the link that you've provided. I have too, but I haven't copied my folder over his. He downloaded and updated himself. |

Please use this debug build:
http://www.mediafire.com/?w93f7mcqex6yp7k Open the file with the File Indexer and send me the complete log file. |

Hello Zathor,
Sorry for the delayed answer, I just got a hold of my friend today. And I've got the log for you (attached). Actually, checking out the debug log gave me a pretty good idea about the cause. As you can see in the log : Code:
--[Error] [17.04.2012 13:18:59] Unsupported codec found:_MPEG-1 VİDEO_ |
