I have tried the MEGui x264 an it works really fine for me.
The only thing that doesent work perfect is the Bitrate Calculator. When i try to calculate the Bitrate by using the MKV format it crashes when i try to select the aac audio Track. When i use the MP4 format i can select the aac audio track, but i doesent get recognized in the calculation. Means, before i select the audio track the calculatet bitrate says 1000k/bits for the Video, and after i selected the audio the Video has the same bitrate. When i use the Bitrate Calculator of the "normal" MeGui everything works fine. |

alright, I found the culprit. It was a remainder of the simplified calculator berrinam wrote a while back. I must've missed that part when I went over the code and made it more functional.

the new version is out. Most notably it contains a hopefully fully working bitrate calculator and of course all the changes mentioned in the megui thread.

THX for the new Version.
The Bitrate Calculator just works fine now, no more crashes. The only thing i miss in this Gui is the Avisynth Script Creator, this tool is very usefull in the "normal" MeGui an it would be cool to have it in this Version too. |

I really don't see why people use MeGUI x264 edition when they want features from the full edition. In fact, I don't see why people want a x264-only edition except if the full version becomes too daunting. Maybe there is some other reason that I have missed?

/me fully agrees with berrinam. The only reason for the existence of this version is that some people seem to be happy with a gui for just the x264 executable. the regular megui defaults to x264.exe so unless you change the container dropdown, you can just ignore the audio groupbox and it's pretty much the same then, but you have all the nifty features.

In the full edition there are too many thing i dont need.
I dont need the AVC Quant Matrix Editor, Chaptor Creator, on click encoder, d2v creator or a muxxer (this thing i do with other progs). The only things i need is the calculator and the script creator, so i dont have to start Gknot only to generate the avs script. |

i like the x264-only edition, it's clean, clear and crispy. MeGUI full edition is ok too once you realise it has 2 methods of creating jobs.
there was a little problem with MeGUI 0.2.2.0 this morning, the One Click Encoder window would not close (it wasn't 'always on top', more like a 'dialogbox that must be click ok or cancel?) the 1-pass did not start. i think i switched of autorun. after running DGIndex.exe (1.4.0) - DGIndex has closed - the One Click Encoder would only die with 'end task'. this was repeated several times. dunno why. now it doesn't happen. now it does. also, i get this error when the above problem did not occur: avis [error]: unsupported input format (DIB ) could not open input file 'J:\source\VTS_01_1.avs' "E:\tools\x264\x264.exe" --pass 1 --bitrate 587195 --stats "2pass.log" --filter 6,0 --analyse p8x8,b8x8,i4x4 --qpstep 1 --progress --no-psnr --output NUL "J:\source\VTS_01_1.avs" i believe the d2v it created is corrupted because all i see is a thin black strip instead of the expected. btw, avsedit 1.1 is a great avisynth script creator with preview. cheers Last edited by vidhead; 19th August 2005 at 11:04. |

and the first new release is already out. Changes, as usual, can be found in the MeGUI thread.

It would be nice if the first post in this thread would show Last Edited, so we don't have to go to the last page just to see if there is a new version ( yes i don't trust version numbers ) |

whereis aviSynthPlugins folder
it's happening again...One Click Encoder is stuck.
ok here is exactly the sequence i've taken: 1. start MeGUI (0.2.2.0) 2. select One Click Encoder (window appears) 3. click ... for video input then select a vob 4. check do not encode audio 5. < did not change suggested output resolution, 640 (vob is 720) 6. Extra Setup - codec - AVC [greyed out] - select a previously configured profile 7. Storage medium = custom, specified a filesize in MB, container is MKV 8. click encode button the DGIndex prog runs in minimized for a little while then "closes" and the One Click Encoder window is "stuck". the "x" does not work. when i click the Encode button again a dialogbox pops up with "You must select a video file or project name to continue". ->end task. i opened the d2v file with DGIndex and this time it is ok. 9. i restart MeGUI and there are 3 tasks in the queue, pass-1, pass2 and mux. under status it shows 'error' for pass-1, waiting for the remainder. i re-run pass-1 and the log show the commandline,etc. and then avis [error]: unsupported input format (DIB ) Quote:
Script Error : there is no function named "mpeg2source" etc. the avs itself contains this only: mpeg2source("J:\source\VTS_01_1.d2v") crop(8,0,-0,-2) LanczosResize(640,480) bingo. this explains why : MeGUI (?) did not write in/load the plugins dlls. hmmm, does MeGUI know where aviSynthPlugins is? (for comparison - gordian knot has a place to specify where aviSynthPlugins folder is.) Quote:

As for the other thing.. I need 100% reproducability. Can you reproduce this every time using exactly the steps you outlined above? Also, you mention 0.2.2.0 and matroska.. 0.2.2.2 contains a crucial bugfix for matroska output in the one click encoder, please try again using the latest version. And P.S., you should post that in the main MeGUI thread.. this thread is only for the limited version that doesn't have a one click encoder. Thank you.
