I've tried this movie with x264 rev. 322b, after a crash on first pass with this config i updated MeGui and x264. Now the first pass works without a problem:


Next job job1 is a video job. encoder commandline:
"x264.exe" --pass 1 --bitrate 1200 --stats "D:\DVD\The_Cube_KV.stats" --keyint 300 --bframes 3 --b-pyramid --subme 1 --weightb --analyse none --qpstep 1 --me dia --threads 2 --progress --no-psnr --output NUL "D:\DVD\The_Cube_KV.avs" --threads 2
successfully set up video encoder and callbacks for job job1
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Actual bitrate after encoding without container overhead: 1204.02

But the 2nd pass ends at ~90% of the movie with the following log:

Next job job2 is a video job. encoder commandline:

The current job contains errors. Stopping queue mode

with no further error messages. Anyone has a clue?

Thanks in advance for any (useful) help!

try running x264 cli without megui with the same 2pass commandline again, maybe its a megui error?

I'll try another movie today (same commandline, but updated x.264 to rev. 327b) and see if it works.
Otherwise I'll do what bond recommended.

So, today I tried another movie with the same commandline and it worked perfectly...
I suppose there was an error during the ripping/indexing process; whatever, I'll try it again :)
