That's what I would do. The best imho would be a check function that colors the invalid controls and disables the OK button, and to call that function for each EN_CHANGE notifications. But that needs time, and it's not that important.

Okay, there was one issue when I did so:
If I pop up a dialog when the value is invalid, and the focus is removed because I click a button, the button is left in "pressed" state because the dialog pops up. Event driven user interfaces are fun. |

Great stuff CD...
May I suggest some things ? It could be great to separate the Analysis options with B-Frames to help newbies with the advanced settings. Here is some suggestions : Another request : to have some presets (High Profile, Main Profile...). And the last thing : I think the min/max/QP step must be disabled when we choose the Bitrate single pass... |

I think there's something not quite right with rev260A. As the encodes I've generated with it will not open in QuickTime player 7 (for Win XP).
I've used exactly the same generating procedure and settings with rev260A, as with the previous version(s) I've tried (last one being X264VFW_rev254+threads_mmx): - But for some reason all my rev260A tests have so far stalled in QT7 (although they seem to work fine in other players). Please let me know what other info you guys require? Cheers

@Kurtnoise13: I like your suggestions.. guess I'll add them to MeGUI as well.

first of all i have to say, cause i often read "weighted prediction", that x264 does NOT support weighted prediction!
x264 supports weighted biprediction, which is a similar, but still another thing than normal weighted prediction about the guis: yep, having the option to choose between "baseline", "main", "high profile" and "unrestricted" (which automatically en/disables options and sets the vbv) would really rock, this can also be combined with the already available option to set the levels SMD, i assume you are not trying to open x264-in-avi in qt7, cause this will surely not work make sure to disable the high profile features (8x8dct and i8x8), cause qt7 doesnt handle high profile thats also one reason why i wrote that they should better be disabled by default

It's levels, not profiles, that restrain the vbv buffer size.
However, making high profile features default does'nt bother me, they really improve things a lot ( but ok, i really don't care for qt7 compliancy ) |

Also it "biprediction" not "prediction"...

However let's just implement options. It's easier to re-design it once you know how many things it should contain...

Fast first pass in VFW ?
Quote:
Ok, found myself in sourse code: Code:
if( config->b_fast1pass ) { /* adjust or turn off some flags to gain speed, if needed */ param.analyse.i_subpel_refine = X264_MAX( X264_MIN( 3, param.analyse.i_subpel_refine - 1 ), 1 ); param.i_frame_reference = ( param.i_frame_reference + 1 ) >> 1; param.analyse.inter &= ( ~X264_ANALYSE_PSUB8x8 ); param.analyse.inter &= ( ~X264_ANALYSE_BSUB16x16 ); } Last edited by cheburashka; 13th June 2005 at 19:49. |

This is what i see when using mencoder "encopts threads=4" on a dual Xeon (HT) system, Win2000Server. Changing priority in MeGUI window doesn't affect this - total average CPU load is stable and about 50%.
And using threads=2 on a regular P4 with HT produces CPU load at about 70-90%. I wish i could load those Xeons up to 80% too |

With regard to the existing GUI layout. It's width has increased by quite a bit.
Anyway, I did some shuffling about and came up with this layout proposal: - Cheers

I've generated several PAR PAL test encodes using 45:64 (for 16:9) and 15:16 (for 4:3) and they are smack on the money.... Many thanks for including AR signalling via VfW. Cheers

There are definately other interesting options to include though.
Like zones, VBV, levels, ratetol, qblur, qp offset and chroma qp However i like your design...

Would it be possible to add .MP4 output for VfW users? Cheers
