@Greg: in fact, MeGUI uses hex codes. Let's presume you have this info file:
0x80 - Audio - AC3 / 6ch / 48kHz / DRC / Deutsch / LBA: 9 / PTS: 00:00:00.060 / Delay: 0ms 0x81 - Audio - AC3 / 6ch / 48kHz / DRC / English / LBA: 8 / PTS: 00:00:00.060 / Delay: 0ms That means the 0x80 is T01, 0x81 is T02. MeGUI goes through these audio lines, the first one is T01, the second one T02, etc. But that's as far as hex codes go. If you have no info file, and dgindex names your selection differently than named in the GUI.. then you're SOL.. there's no way of telling for megui which is which - or do you know of any way? @asdfsauce: There's no bug.. you cannot start a process with a relative path.. it's as simple as that. ATM I'm at a loss why a restart helps.. it shouldn't because the setup process is exactly the same and the if File.Exists(x264\x264.exe) will still return false. Quote:

A fair bit of googling didn't give me any more info about the sort of stream id that neuron2 was talking about here, so I simply have no idea what's going on. Quote:

@berrinam/doom9
Thanks for the continued discussion on that audio hiccup. I'm reripping my (rather massive) collection right now due to a equipment loss in a fire (smoke+soot+always on HTPC = failed electronics). Any movies I rip having a 0x81 starting stream are being separated out so I can adjust the DGIndex command line in the job. All others with a standard 5.1 0x80 channel are being done straight-away. Thanks again - I'll keep looking into the threads should any new information come around. |

@Doom9
Surely an executable can look up its own path and append the relative path to it. Maybe someone could amend the code to deal with that. I actually wanted that as a feature even before this deal with the installer came up, but didn’t think anyone else would see any usefulness in it. I only assumed it would work in the first place because at one point in time, having an executable in the same folder as MeGUI.exe and the path set to just executable.exe would work just fine. |

MeGUI is manually coded to support paths of the form 'file.exe'. However, it doesn't support relative paths other than that as of yet. I'll have a look into it to see how hard it is to support relative paths.

My only relative path setting right now:
<X264Path>x264\x264.exe</X264Path> If I open MeGUI with that setting, queue up an x264 encode and then try to start, it will error with this – Quote:

Thanks berrinam.
There's one other thing that has been bothering me. Ever since the latest completed refactoring (I think), the video encoder settings profiles have been acting a bit weird for me. Not the profiles themselves, but MeGUI's handling of them. For instance, a lot of times they are not saved after editing. Then others, MeGUI won't display the profile that is currently in use even though I had just finished using/editing it. Things get even weirder when I have safe profile alteration activated, but that may not be the case now as I haven't been using that setting for some time. To me it’s really obvious/annoying and has persisted through multiple configurations, but since it’s been around for a while now with no fix, I’m thinking this problem isn’t experienced by all. The audio profiles seem to be fine though. Last edited by asdfsauce; 19th April 2006 at 05:44. |

MeGUI changes my SAR settings.
I want to do an anmorphic encode with an SAR of 10:11. This is what I see in the xml file when the job files are generated: Code:
<Commandline>--pass 1 --bitrate 1180 --stats "encode.stats" --keyint 240 --min-keyint 24 --bframes 3 --b-pyramid --filter 1,1 --subme 1 --analyse none --direct auto --me dia --sar 10:11 --progress --no-psnr --output NUL "encode.avs" </Commandline> Code:
Job is a video job. encoder commandline: --pass 1 --bitrate 1180 --stats "encode.stats" --keyint 240 --min-keyint 24 --bframes 3 --b-pyramid --filter 1,1 --subme 1 --analyse none --direct auto --me dia --sar 75:121 --progress --no-psnr --output NUL "encode.avs" successfully started encoding Last edited by yogi_; 19th April 2006 at 16:21. |

I recognised that when changing IN MeGUI the path to the avs plugins that this will modify the general avisynth plugins path registry key string value of the system!
So if a newbie interprets that as an individual MeGui avs plugin directory which can be set specifically for MeGui he will be much surprised when his avs system is messed up afterwards! If the user wants to load filters outside the common avs plugins directory he could do that via the manual load plugin button. My >>2cents<< Last edited by Inc; 22nd April 2006 at 16:44. |

Encoding with MP3 audio (one click) causes exit
Hi,
Like the GUI! I have managed to 1 click fine with NAAC but when I try with LAME MP3 DGIndex does the 1st (analysis) step and MeGUI then performs the second step (where it won't respond to input) after which it exits! No error and no log. I installed from the essentials pkg, patched to latest 0.2.3.2129, installed AVISynth 2.5.6a and copied the filters. I can do the AC3 to MP3 on its own fine. I have tried CBR, VBR different downmix settings. Have tried a couple of VOB files. FAAC also seems to work fine. Any ideas? Regards, Graham
