I think many people are using MeGUI such as batch encoder...

im sorry, but im not sure i correctly understood what you mean

Selur · 7th August 2007, 13:26

Is it just me or does AutoEncode no longer adjust the bitrate?
(Just waited for a x264 1080p@50fps encode to realize MeGui (0.2.6.1001) used a Datarate of 700kBit/s,...)

any news about the TimeCalculation Bugs in Progress window ?

I mean after 24h is start counting from zero again, Remainig Time jumps around ...

There seems to be a little problem with audio encoding:

Starting job job1 at 13:15:46
Starting preprocessing of job...
Preprocessing finished!
Calling setup of processor failed with error Required file 'C:\Program Files\megui\tools\encaacplus\encaacplus.exe' is missing.
Looking for job processor for job...
Processor found!

There is no encaacplus.exe, but only enc_aacPlus.exe

Just change the path in the settings

Gabriel_Bouvigne · 8th August 2007, 13:55

Sure, it's just that the default path is wrong...

I do not recommend updating to development versions.

I had problems before with it too.

mitsubishi · 12th August 2007, 01:07

Since berrinam hasn't been around for a while, here is a build with the prerender job bug fixed, since a couple of people seem to need it: http://www.mediafire.com/?8ncvvuy1gjn

I also added a "Do all and close" button to the AVS cutter which will just add cuts, save the cutfile (with same name as AVS) and close without all the dialogues (provided there are no issues).

If it's worth it I'll submit patches to SF, but in the mean time get them here: http://www.mediafire.com/?ddr9logmzin

Hi,

I have 2 problems with my MeGui - it's a clean install with the new computer and all - 0.2.5.1007

the 1st problem I experienced with my old computer as well - I load an avs script - the picture comes up with the "player" thingy in the middle of the video clip - and once I click on the "X" it freezes - what I do is I click on enque, exist megui, re-enter it and just hit start on the queue.

The 2nd problem - the REAL problem, is that now 99% of the times, it will hit 99.97% in the encode - and will not go any further. It drives me crazy.

Could somebody please help or refer me to somebodys post similiar to this or something? Thanks.

Edit1:

I did a search and this one guy seems to have had the same problem I'm having:
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...ht=megui+stuck
I'll try to remove the VSFILTER stuff as well and see what's up, that might solve the 2nd of my problems... Though, I'm not quite certain what I'll be doing to make it work with it, since I DO need the subs attached lawl... ATM - out of my head, I am guessing I might need to add japanese to this computer - as I had it on my previous one... Speculations...

hello,

when i start megui my screen starts flickering. Also when i get the preview when creating the avisynth script, and when i press crop, the black border dont turn white as they normally do.

It happened when i installed staxrip. Staxrip was complaining about all kinds of wrong versions of programs and started downloading. It did work for me so i uninstalled it.

I reinstalled megui and did the update.
The codecs/decoders i have installed are ffdshow, coreavc and ac3filter. I have avisynth 2.5.7
Does any one know what the problem is and how i can fix it?

thanks

Firstly, hats off to the MeGUI team for the latest version, particularly updating the various components... its nice not having to manually download the latest versions of all the stuff. Also, its nice to have Cef's x264 build, and the new Mencoder build is sweet, too.

On to my issue: Using pre-render run with 1-pass constant quality.

I've been doing most of encoding on my work laptop, since it has multiple cores... but recently my company installed a low-level encryption software that slows the HD access a bit, so I've been running various speed tests.

One of the things I did was to run a CRF 22 encode two different ways: one with a separate pre-render run (2-part job), and one with a straight encode (1-part job).

I realize that pre-rendering won't save you time on a 1-pass job, but comparing the results was kind of shocking: the 1-part job was 4 hours shorter.

Job 1-1: 6:20:27 = 380.45 minutes
Job 1-2: 5:34:08 = 334.13 minutes

Total: 11:54:35 = 714.58 minutes

Job 2: 7:50:58 = 470.97 minutes

What accounts for this big difference?
Does it have anything to do with using CRF?

I'm trying to use VobSubber feature with last stable release.
The problem is that MeGUI just stops because it can't find vobsub.dll in system32.
I can't find any information about this error. Any idea ?
VSFilter.dll is in the AviSynth plugins directory. But what about vobsub.dll ? Where can I download it ?

Thank you.

Well I Would Like Rip A DVD Movie Which Is Of 4.36GB NTSC To X264 With MKV And Keeping ND AAC As The Audio.......And After Creating The d2v Files......Which One Do U Prefer To Encode First Audio Or Video?......And Its 3CD Rip....So I Need To Split It Into 3 Equal Sizes ...I Mean 700MB X 3......How To Split It Using MeGUI......And I Also Like To Mux The Chapters And The Subtitles........Well Does .srt Sublties CAn Be Muxed? Or The Orginal SubTitle Files Is Only Recommended... .....After Muxing All Theses Stuff Will I Get 700Mb Exactly... Is There Any Chance For The File Size To Get Increased.........

I opened MeGUI this morning, downloaded/installed the prompted update, and now I am getting the following error when I choose my profile:

"Sorry, the selected profile exceeds the AVC level you have specified

Maximum Bitrate is too high"

This is my profile used for encoding for PS3:

Quote:

--bitrate 1000 --level 4.1 --keyint 240 --min-keyint 24 --ref 2 --bframes 3 --no-b-adapt --b-pyramid --bime --weightb --direct temporal --subme 7 --analyse p8x8,b8x8,i4x4 --vbv-maxrate 25000 --threads auto --thread-input --progress --no-psnr --no-ssim --output "" ""

Now I will admit that I'm not horribly familiar with the maximum bitrate for 4.1, but this was working flawlessly before and 1000 doesn't seem all that high...

yes, please. sice im no longer actively developing megui (until ill get better), i suppose berrinam will be happy to receive any external help.

change VBV maximum bitrate to zero for automatic under rate control on third tab, see if that solves it?

D'oh! Max, not average... I can be such an idiot some times... thanks for pointing out my stupidity.

I've updated xvid_encraw (squid_80) and xvidcore.dll (celtic druid) with the latest versions available in both stable and development megui autoupdate trees. i've did some testing and it seems it's all ok, but if you encounter any problems with those, please shout here.
