@Pasqui, absinthe, odyn1982: How does this look for you... stdout versus the contents of the log in version 0.1.9.8 or above?

problem with no progress bar (and disappearing status window after encoding) still extists in MeGUI 0.1.9.9 on my machine:
with MeGUI i tried > output.txt 2> errors.txt but no files were written... when using x264 via commandline 2 empty files were written... ----> logfile is like the one above (still short, with commands: > output.txt 2> errors.txt) Code:
"C:\MeGUI\x264.exe" --bitrate 700 --no-b-adapt --subme 4 --analyse p8x8,b8x8,i4x4 --progress --no-psnr --output "C:\Movies [C]\test\test.mp4" "C:\Movies [C]\test\yyyy.avs" > output.txt 2> errors.txt when using mencoder via commandline the attached files were written... Code:
"C:\Rippen\mencoder\mencoder.exe" "C:\Movies [C]\test\yyyy.avs" -ovc x264 -x264encopts bitrate=700:subq=4:i4x4 -o "C:\Movies [C]\test\test.264" -of rawvideo > output.txt 2> errors.txt Edit: pasted commandline

I tested versions 0.1.9.8-9 and problem with progress bar still exists, my status window doesn't close (but x264.exe finished job). No files were written with command "> output.txt"
My log: Next job job1 is a video job. encoder commandline: "E:\DIVX\PROGRAMY\x264\x264CLI\x264.exe" --bitrate 700 --no-b-adapt --subme 4 --analyse p8x8,i4x4 --progress --no-psnr --output "E:\test.mp4" "E:\TEST5.avs" > output.txt successfully set up video encoder and callbacks for job job1 One question: i don't use bframes so why there is " --no-b-adapt " |

I'm a tyro at this and am chuffed that I can even use standard Gordian Knot. A complication for me is that I run GK under WinX64 but have to use MeGUI on the Win32 partition because that's where NET 1.1 is. Is there some way to use the movie.avs and sdtrk.ac3 files that GK produces for an XviD encode as inputs for MeGui? The .avs was recognized okay, but I couldn't figure out how to reencode and mux the AC3 into an Mp4
BTW, the Yu-Gi_Oh x264 I made with GK looks vastly better with Videolan player than via players using the latest ffdshow. Heck, with VLC the 500 mb file is scarcely distinguishable from DVD. |

Still no status progress with 1.9.9, but the encoding box does close and I believe it always did.
Using default settings (ABR/700 kbps), Code:
"C:\Documents and Settings\abs\Desktop\AV Tools\MencoderGUI\codecs\x264.exe" --bitrate 700 --no-b-adapt --subme 4 --analyse p8x8,b8x8,i4x4 --progress --no-psnr --output "D:\withintest.mp4" "D:\within_test.avs" I hope this hasn't been covered elsewhere, but does x264 have limitations on input colorspace? Sometimes my jobs last about 1 second and I get no output, or rather an empty file. Sometimes that only happens on the second pass. That was history, but the problem seemed solved when I started using the x264 CLI. It just now happened again though. I realized I'd had no problems with d2v files made from direct DVD rips, and realizing that the file I was just using was HuffyUV, I converted to YV12 via AviSynth and the problem went away. Also, it seems in the last couple of versions that you can't output raw from MeGUI. Choosing RAW as output, the output field seems to default to a "*.mp4" file, which is the output I get. -abs

The only thing I can still try is the paralell 3 thread stdout/stderr reading that I use for mp4box now.. when time permits (week-end probably) I'll make a separate dumb program that launches x264.exe and writes out any messages received from x264's stdout and stderr to the commandline. But I would not at all be surprised if that didn't work on your machine either. And that means I'd be at the end of my rope and your computer is just not compatible with my software, period. Quote:

Can you try appending >2 errors.txt to your commandline and tell me what the file contains after encoding (try launching x264.exe from the commandline just in case). Quote:

No, I always have progress bar with mencoder and mp4box.

@odyn1982: at least you get stderr messages.. so that behavior is consistent.. we just need to figure out why you don't get any statusupdates sent in x264 mode. I'll dump all the lines I get from x264 into a logfile and write it to the HD automatically instead of using the log appending mechanism which relies on the status updates.
@kurt: do you have a progress bar during audio encoding? besweet also writes the processing output to stderr and only informational messages to stdout. mencoder and mp4box use stdout and only rarely stderr.

Next problem with audio configuration. Megui always uses this settings: -azid( -s stereo -c normal -L -3db ) -bsn( -2ch -cbr 128 ) -ota( -d 0 -g max )
but I wanted 5.1ch, VBR streaming, he profile with high quality. Code:
Log for job job2 besweet: "E:\DIVX\PROGRAMY\AUDIO\BeSweetv1.5b30\BeSweet.exe" -core( -input "E:\DIVX\FILMY\TRAILERS\HP2\HII T03 2_0ch 192Kbps DELAY 0ms.ac3" -output "E:\DIVX\FILMY\TRAILERS\HP2\Test\audio.mp4" -logfile "besweet.log" ) -azid( -s stereo -c normal -L -3db ) -bsn( -2ch -cbr 128 ) -ota( -d 0 -g max ) BeSweet v1.5b30 by DSPguru. -------------------------- [00:00:00:000] Initializing...

Anyhow, just like kurt, my status window definitely closes when the job's done; there's just no progress bar movement (it's always 0%). Also like kurt, audio progress works just fine. As it does with muxing. -abs

Okay guys.. here's a very simply .net cli program that reads both stdout and stderr from x264.exe. It expects x264.exe in the same directory, as well as an avisynth script called input.avs.
You obviously have to launch it from the commandline and it should show something like this: Code:
D:\MeGUI\bin\Debug>x264CLIReader.exe 18:13:40Started x264.exe and the stdout and stderr readers 18:13:40 line received: avis [info]: 640x352 @ 25.00 fps (3598 frames) 18:13:40 line received: x264 [info]: using cpu capabilities MMX MMXEXT SSE SSE2 3DNow! 18:13:40 line received: mp4 [info]: initial delay 0 (scale 25) 18:13:40 line received: encoded frames: 4/3598 (0.1%), 36.70 fps 18:13:40 line received: encoded frames: 8/3598 (0.2%), 42.78 fps 18:13:40 line received: encoded frames: 11/3598 (0.3%), 47.01 fps 18:13:40 line received: encoded frames: 15/3598 (0.4%), 48.08 fps

@odyn1982: Could you explain which steps you took from starting MeGUI until encoding. I'm especially interested if there was an audio profile selected when you start MeGUI, if you changed the profile selection at any point in either window.

No, I've never had any audio or video profile.
I choose my input and output file, then I configured audio options (5.1, vbr, he, high), clicked queue and finally start. Last edited by odyn1982; 23rd June 2005 at 17:35. |
