MeGUI - x264/XviD/lavc/Snow encoder with MP4/MKV/AVI output & audio

[magic144]

understood - I guess it's yet another thing I have to keep in the back of my mind in my workflow :-)
I must write this stuff down!!

I just updated via the auto updater to the latest version of everything and now everything I attempt to encode crashes x264.exe

[Sharktooth]

try replacing x264 with the one on x264.nl and see if it works

Still crashing :\. Any other details I can provide that would help diagnose the issue?

question about the use of ColorMatrix in the AviSynth script creator...

I've read a lot about ColorMatrix, but there seems to be as much information as misinformation flying about.
I thought that the way in which the script creator is using it (which is just ColorMatrix(hints=true)), it would try and do a rec.709 to rec.601 conversion

however, it was also my understanding that HD encoded material was to be rec.709

can someone explain why the apparent scripted 709->601 conversion? or have I got this wrong??

I had a look at the h.264 output from MeGUI/x264 using DGAVCIndex and it appeared to indicate rec.709 (or at least rec.709 by default since it was not explicitly indicated in the stream) - from the DGAVCIndex manual - "Note that if the stream does not declare the colorimetry, then ITU-R BT.709* is reported for HD video"

cheers,

x264 r985 should fix the crashing bug, just let megui auto-update.

Can someone teach me how to make a batch ".bat" file so I can encode my 37 AVI(WMV9&MP3) files into MP4 with video and audio?

this is AVS setting

DirectShowSource("J:\001.avi",fps=23.9759856527702,audio=false)
#deinterlace
#crop
#resize
#denoise

my profile of video, encoding to x264

--pass 2 --bitrate 1000 --stats ".stats" --ref 3 --mixed-refs --no-fast-pskip --bframes 2 --b-pyramid --bime --weightb --trellis 1 --analyse p8x8,b8x8,i4x4,p4x4 --merange 24 --threads auto --thread-input --progress --no-psnr --no-ssim --output "J:\@MP4.mp4" "J:\@MP4.avs"

and audio, encoding to NeroAAC into MP4

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<GenericProfileOfAudioCodecSettings xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

Thank you.

...and what a .bat file has in common with with megui?

[NiGHTsC]

Hm, I don't know, that's why I'm asking lol...
I thought it's encoding like Mencoder...
Thanx then.


==========
by the way, is there any faster way to do my jobs?
using my MeGUI Video/Audio profiles.

I'll merge them into MP4 one by one later, but it's the encoding messing me up.

Thanx again.

[Sharktooth]

please open a new thread...

[NiGHTsC]

I see, cause I have seen people asked it here so I thought it's the right place.
My bad, thanx anyway.

I have a suggestion: Make the Avisynth Script Creator return to the frame you have selected when you use the Preview AVS Script button or the Auto Preview.

Post it in the feature request tracker of the megui project on sourceforge

Is anyone aware of the problem I have mentioned in this post about the cutter being totally broken?
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=141685

It's been like this for quite a number of weeks and gone through several updates without correction.

I have about 40-50 videos waiting to be encoded with probably many more on the way that I use the cutter for.

I have a Avisynth profile named default with the following settings:

Colour Correction

Clever (TM) anamorphic encoding

Encode non-mod 16

This profile will encode to x264 at original broadcast resolution.

This has always worked correctly until 0.3.0.3001

When Avisynth script creator is loaded my default profile is loaded with all the correct settings, however the video is resized to mod 16.

I did not notice this the first time I used 0.3.0.3001 and I had to re-encode.

Selecting encode non-mod 16 again stops the resize.

Hello,


Quick question for you guys. I've been using RipBot for a bit & wanted to give MeGUI a shot...How does it handle DTS audio? Do I have to transcode it to AC3 or another format or would I be able to copy the stream? If I wanted to add a DTS audio track to a video file, how would I do that w/out it being changed? Sorry for the newb-ish question but I couldn't much about this searching, all I came up w/was changing a DTS track to other formats...

My bug ID: 2152972 has been closed with a message from kurtnoise13 "fixed in rev 808." - Thanks
How do I download and install "rev 808"
