MeGUI: bug reports and feature requests

[Amateur]

getting Process exits with error code: -1073741819 with a certain clip. i tried indexing it again but it doesn't help. i get the error within 20 seconds of starting to encode the job. I am using 2019 (svn) version of MeGUI. Is there a particular reason this one 3000-frame clip is getting the error?

Its not just you. I am getting the same error and exit on numerous encodes since the last couple updates of x264. Something is wrong with the latest version but I have no idea what.

EDIT: Still not sure what is going on. Reinstalled the stable version (2009) which was running fine before and it errored out with the same code on the same files. I am now trying to run them on a different machine to see if something wierd is going on with my pc...

EDIT2: Well it only happens on one pc and not the other but the one where it happens has the nvidia chip running dgindexnv. I have now run into the error enough times to figure out its with avisynth.dll, not x264. MeGUI avisynthcreator can fail if the frame opened inthe preview window has whatever it is avisynth.dll is bombing on. No idea what. I am running avisynth 2.5.8 is that correct version?

[Rat Killer]

While the above issue still haunts me quite frequently I have an independant question or feature request.

If I open a file with the 'File' 'Open', then index sequence, after indexing meGUI fills in the video and audio encoding parameters ready for me to hit autoencode. Very convienient.

Sometimes, the audio is already exactly as it should be and does not need recoding. Is there an option or could there be for the autoencode to pass through the current audio track unaltered and just mux it with the recoded video track? Perhaps just an encoder setting of 'passthrough' would do the trick. Or is there already a way to do this and I missed it?

getting this error again but with a different file now. the first error corrected itself after i updated. i'm now on 2023 svn and selected Check for Updates but it found none.

There is.... this was a peeve of mine for a while until I figured it out. Before you hit autoencode, remove the audio from the main window with the "X" located next to the "enqueue" button. When the autoencode window pops up there is a check box to add additional content at the bottom, check this. Then you can add the unaltered audio in the mux stage. You can set this in the settings==>extra config==>configure autoencode defaults==>check "add additional content"... this way that little check box is always on.

Cool, thanks for the tip.

@RatKiller: You can also give the OneClick tool a try.

2028 [AVS Script Creator] added a selection box if opening an indexable file directly
2027 [x264] fixed applying of "Clever (TM) anamorphic encoding" DAR values. Bug #3302642
2026 [OneClick] changed handling of failed automatic deinterlacing process
2025 [HD Streams Extractor] cosmetic adjustment. Bug #3303116
2024 [MKV Muxer] added TrueHD + DTS-HD/MA as supported audio input formats

Hi:

Whe one-click is preprocessing, just before it begins automatic deinterlacing, I am getting this error:

The following error has ocurred when trying to get Media info for file xxxxxxxxxxxx/VTS_01_1.VOB
Input chain has not the correct format.

The log file shows no additional info:

Any help appreciated

I loaded an MKV file into the HD Streams Extractor. The MKV container had a 1080p video file, an audio file, and 2 subtitle tracks (both SRT files).

I selected to extract ONLY the two subtitle streams. However, the HD Streams Extractor also extracted the video track. I think this is a bug.

[tebugg]

just wondering, is megui going to implement the vhq metric for xvid? i've been using xvid 1.3.1 with virtualdub and i love the results the vhq metric (psnr-hvs-m) is giving, but i would love to see it in megui as well. it gives r-d optimizations and i can tell the difference between an xvid 1.2.2 and xvid 1.3.1 encode. i hope megui updates its xvid, i have not come across any bugs recently with the new xvid build and i encode 720p avi's to 2.8gb from 20+gb x264 files. they all play nicely on my HD media player on my 1080p TV.

Edit: i found the problem. its an xvid_encraw problem not a xvid developer problem which is why i can create avi files over 2gb with virtualdub.

[Amateur]

still getting this error even after the update to 2028 svn. any ideas for the cause?

[pancserzso]

I have some serious problem with any MeGUI build newer than 1911. I tried both stable and dev, I installed Matroska and ffdshow, but no difference!

Every time I open an avs file with an ImageSource, I get:

Fatal Error:
MeGUI encountered a fatal error and may not be able to proceed.
Reason: Attempted to read or write memory protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

The avs files are not even complex, they are just:

ImageSource("imgseq_%d.png", 1,1001,25)
ConvertToYV12()

I have absolutely no problem on or before build 1911.

Can you help me how to solve this issue? I really don't know what is causing it!

I've found an issue using the One Click Encoder when using episode DVD's that have been ripped in a way that each episode's file have identical file naming. The One Click Encoder gets totally messed up because it uses the same name for the d2v file creation.

e.g.

+---BONES S04xE01E02
|       VIDEO_TS.BUP
|       VIDEO_TS.IFO
|       VTS_01 - Chapter Information.txt
|       VTS_01_0.BUP
|       VTS_01_0.IFO
|       VTS_01_1.VOB
|       VTS_01_2.VOB
|       VTS_01_3.VOB
|       
+---BONES S04xE03
|       VIDEO_TS.BUP
|       VIDEO_TS.IFO
|       VTS_01 - Chapter Information.txt
|       VTS_01_0.BUP
|       VTS_01_0.IFO
|       VTS_01_1.log
|       VTS_01_1.VOB
|       VTS_01_2.VOB
|       
+---BONES S04xE04
|       VIDEO_TS.BUP
|       VIDEO_TS.IFO
|       VTS_01 - Chapter Information.txt
|       VTS_01_0.BUP
|       VTS_01_0.IFO
|       VTS_01_1.VOB
|       VTS_01_2.VOB

free image hosting

As you can see it will overwrite the same d2v file when the queue runs.


adult image hosting

A smarter way to handle this is to name the intermediate and output files based on the folder names.

So if a folder structure is Bones S04xE11\VIDEO_TS

IF Folder = VIDEO_TS
Files will be prefixed with Bones S04xE11
ELSE
Files will be prefixed VIDEO_TS (or whatever the folder is called they are in)

Of course this should be an optional setting in MeGUI. Maybe called Smart File Naming?

--keyint in the custom command line box doesn't remove the GOP Size settings on the Frame-Type Tab from the command line.

Thanks! Fixed in 2029.

I formatted and did a fresh installation of win x64 7,
then I installed megui v. 2028 and to my surprise I didn't see any blue ray profiles in the encoders settings, only Xvid profiles.
Am I doing something wrong or is there a problem?
