Old versions will crash the same way, since that is a bug in tsMuxeR.
-> it does not like anything but ASCII characters -> remoce the 'ş' from the filename and it should work

update: made a version that checks for ASCII compatibility when tsMuxeR is used during processing

[pdanpdan]

I renamed the folder and filename and it almost worked
I mean the video was done as it should, but the audio was cut in the begining(as it should) but then continued to the end of the original file
I tested with a 1min cut from 00:00:50 to 00:01:50, and the resulting video has 1min (2Mb) and the audio has 23min (24Mb)

seems like I missed a place where the audio had to be cut,.. a debugoutput would be helpful,..

[pdanpdan]

new version gave me the warning about ASCII chars for this path, even thow it worked with the previous version
"C:\#EAC#\Scooby-Doo si echipa misterelor\Scooby-Doo si echipa misterelor_20120424_07500815.ts"
debug in a few moments

sorry, no debug as all paths do not work

[Selur]

hmm,.. that's strange,.. characters look fine,.. -> DOH, forgot a NOT

Got it! The problem is a missing space
the tsMuxeR call should include '--vbr --cut-end=110s' but according to the DebugLog it includes: --vbr--cut-end=110s
(btw. the report and the normal log, really don't help me at all, there are just for normal 'user amusement')

Cu Selur

[pdanpdan]

still wrong - the space is not fixed (--vbr--cut-end=110s)

[Selur]

hups,.. uploaded the wrong file

[pdanpdan]

now it's working, thank you

Hybrid rev. 2012.05.01.1

*changed*

• preview: a/v synch delay handling
• mac: set default toolTip font size to 15px
• mencoder/mplayer: allow up to 16 instead of 8 threads, requires mencoder/mplayer revision r34866 or later
• jobs: abort when user tries to multiplex wma audio into a mkv file, since mkvmerge does not support wma audio

*added*

• hidden: toolTipFontSize, option to set the toolTip-fontsize in pixel (mac os: default = 15, everything else: default = system.default)
• check: checking if ffmpeg is 32bit (only 32bit ffmpeg can open 32bit avisynth scripts)
• avisynth: experimental - video olny - trim-support
• x264: support for level 5.2, requires x264 rev. 2197+

*fixed*

• analyse: avsInfo output was not properly parsed for audio data (looked into stdErr instead of stdOut output,... DOH!)
• avisynth: cut support was ineffective for when mencoder and avisynth were used in combination

-> downloads: http://www.selur.de/downloads

Hybrid rev. 2012.05.03.1

*fixed*

• decoder: don't add '-demuxer lavf -vfm ffmpeg' to mencoder/mplayer call for avisynth input
• muxing: problem with x264 pulldown and m2ts output
• profile: loading a global profile was accidentally partially disabled in the last build

*added*

• input: added support to decode RTV1/RTV2 content through avisynht&avisource if vfw decoders are installed

-> downloads: http://www.selur.de/downloads

Hybrid rev. 2012.05.05.1

*fixed*

• vfw: fixed vfw video decoder detection on 64bit systems
• profiles: profiles with a '.' in the name weren't detected when saved,...
• muxing: accidentally frame count made it's way into the fps options,..

-> downloads: http://www.selur.de/downloads

Hello Selur,
thought of giving your tool a try and I gotta tell, it's pretty good There are a lots of options, selections, tools and I'm satisfied.

It's the tool with a huge filesize huh? unlike other tools, it looks big
I'll give it a try, encoding and will tell you more about the usage and all

[Selur]

it uses a lot of tools in the background and I dropped binary compression since it tends to cause false-positives from virus scanners,.. (-> if you run i.e. upx over the binaries they, most of the time, shrink to 30% of the current size)

[meshaun]

One more thing selur, I used a MeGUI profile earlier, like x264 Slower with 2599 bitrate, it took like, 4 hours for 1st pass and 6 hours for 2nd pass.
But in Hybrid, the first pass took only less than 1hour and 2nd is like 3 hours.
Total time taken was only 4h 30 mins.
But megui takes 12 hours :O

I checked the quality and it's good too mate.
Why is this? Both use 100% CPU and stuff.

I'll put the video settings only

[Selur]

two things that are probably different:
1. Hybrid always sets the vbv-restrictions (unless you select: Profile->Unrestricted) but that should not cause any speed up
2. on a 64bit System Hybrid will use a 64bit x264 version, might be that MeGui is using a 32bit x264 version,...
-> it's probably the difference between using a 32bit and a 64bit version, other than that Hybrid (for Windows) and MeGui both use the x264 binaries from http://www.x264.nl/
