I still hope you can make it not only "min"(0) and alternative "max"(1). I don't know if it's a hard work so I may be wrong. Sometimes the balance between the speed and quality is needed.

Yeah. It's the truth. Thanks a lot! AVS input is quite important!

Edit:

[suggestion] commandline options that offer a way to encode file
It's useful because someone can make a bat file to encode many files. (at the end of the bat file is "shutdown -s -f -t 0"

)

Why not use the existing wmcmd.vbs from zambelli to do the command-line encoding? I don't think he's posted the update yet, but it works just like a command-line exe.

It's hard to use.
I think Nic's WMEncoder will be much easier.

Not really. It's no harder to use than, say, x264.exe is. It might even have less parameters.

The only real downside to wmcmd.vbs is that it requires the WM Encoder (or SDK).

Does it support avs input? If so, then I'll put it into MeGUI.

wmcmd.vbs? It will when I realase the update (very soon!). However, if you're looking to include it in MeGUI, it might not be the best solution since it does have WME9 as a requirement.

And the other reason is that I can't find any information about WVC-1 in the help. (Windows Media Encoder 9) It's the only difficulty I meet. If you know, please tell me, thank you!

There's no mention of WVC1 in WME9 because WME9 precedes it by about 3 years.

You can find out more info about WVC1 in this thread: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=111275

Sorry for my poor English, then I can't find any useful information out.
Could you please give me a example of command line?

I'll try whether prx file can offer the function that encoding files in a bat file.

The commandline/script encoder help docs comes with WME9 3 years ago, it's the very thing u r looking for.
to enable the avs support with wmcmd.vbs, you should mod the script in this way

Now open the file in Notepad or any text/code editor and find the text "Compute file duration". Beginning with that line, delete every line of code up until (but not including) "intSleepDuration = 2000". The deleted section should count about 20 lines of code. Now replace the deleted code with the line:

intDuration = 0

Save the file and you're done. You should now be able to use wmcmd.vbs with any valid .avs file as source. As I said, the only downside is that you won't be able to get the progress report about your encoding pass, including info about the start of Pass2. Oh well. Don't forget that the .vbs version of WME9 is just about as powerful as the full version of the encoder. If you run into a setting that's not supported in the script-based encoder, just go and create a profile in the full encoder and then use the script-based encoder with the "-wme" switch. This is essentially how you get 6-channel mono WAV input and other nifty tricks done.

anyway, i'm not familiar with VB, thx for your mod

Valeron, can you tell me where did you paste that Zambelli's article from? It seems that you have manually typed my name, as it is mcored as I have been *always* used my name as McoreD.

From memory, here is where I have included Zambelli's WMCMD article in MSUN Knowledgebase:

http://microsoftuse.temp.powweb.com/.../kb-avswme.htm

Cheers,

Is this wonderful easy tool still being developed? If yes, it would be great if you could add the support of pixel aspect ratio. To me it seems essential to be able to set the aspect ratio of the encoded video.

thanks!
