MeGUI: General Questions and Troubleshooting Thread

[Pulp Catalyst]

i can't, long gone, also noticed something else with megui aswell now....

i converted The Avengers 2012 bluray to Xvid SD resolution, the resize was spline64 and done through DGI format, the noise filter was lowest setting.

however i just started watching it before burning it off, weird problem, everything plays OK, quality is amazing, however the left part of the film, everynow and then the black part keeps apearing? it starts to come in the left side... then suddenly disappears.... and keeps doing it?

i'm baffled by this one,

i don't have the script anymore, but i have one similar

# Set DAR in encoder to 12 : 5. The following line is for automatic signalling
global MeGUI_darx = 12
global MeGUI_dary = 5
SetMemoryMax(768)
SetMTMode(5,3)
LoadPlugin("D:\Program Files (x86)\MeGUI\tools\dgindexnv\DGDecodeNV.dll")
DGSource("H:\MEGUI\2\IRON MAN 1.dgi",fieldop=0)
SetMTMode(2)
##deinterlace
crop(0, 140, 0, -140)
Spline64Resize(720,304) # Spline64 (Sharp)
LoadPlugin("D:\Program Files (x86)\MeGUI\tools\avisynth_plugin\UnDot.dll")
Undot() # Minimal Noise



just noticed another issue, when i click on save on the above in AVS script creator i return to GUI main screen,


if i go back into AVS script editor, and load the same script that was just created, this is what i now get????

# Set DAR in encoder to 12 : 5. The following line is for automatic signalling
global MeGUI_darx = 12
global MeGUI_dary = 5
SetMemoryMax(768)
SetMTMode(5,3)
Import("H:\MEGUI\2\IRON MAN 1.avs")
SetMTMode(2)
##deinterlace
#crop
#resize
LoadPlugin("D:\Program Files (x86)\MeGUI\tools\avisynth_plugin\UnDot.dll")
Undot() # Minimal Noise




this all started when megui screwed all my scripts up,

am i right thinking that the 2nd issue i just noted is because i have not redone my scripts properly....

or is there another issue......

i will have my new system built soon, i'm gonna stop using DGI format altogether, have a feeling that it's not playing nice with megui & the GPU (drivers)

bloody nightmare, need to rip Avengers for the third time!!!!!!!!! GOD!!!!



EDIT

going to give all this one last try, going to tear all my script apart, and rebuild them one by one, something must be going on with them that's causing issue....
got a week of work next week, going to attempt to give it one last try..... my best theory right now is maybe the order of the script is wrong...

although i still feel DGI is too blame, why else would the letterboxing on the far left keep changing unless.... the information coming from the GPU is moving the image if you will hence why the cropping is failing because the actual image on screen is off centre from one moment to the next.... although i may have this wrong..... like i say it's just a theory!

i will have my new system built soon, i'm gonna stop using DGI format altogether, have a feeling that it's not playing nice with megui & the GPU (drivers) You need to operate on facts, not feelings. And generating FUD based on your unfounded feelings is not going to do much for your reputation.

[Pulp Catalyst]

nothing wrong with sharing a feeling, feelings by there very nature are unfounded and not fact, it is an opinion, a misplaced opinion most likely, but a feeling none the less, take it for what it is, i'm just sharing a feeling, i made no suggestion what so ever that i'm making a fact.... a feeling is never a fact no matter what the situation is.... hence why i said feeling!

i'm sorry if i have offended you, that was not my intention, far from it in FACT.
again, sorry!

[Guest]

i'm sorry if i have offended you You didn't offend me, I just need to counter your FUD. I've always responded very quickly to problems reported in my tools. If you have one I will help you with it. But I can't help you with your feelings. :)

Let's stay on topic and take this to PM if you feel the need to respond. Thank you.

Usually it happens only when i use Pre-rendering job, infact now i'm encoding without it and it works. However it takes a lot of extra time (more than 6 hours); so i can't encode :/

[Zathor]

I have updated yesterday the ffmpeg build (it was one year old and the current one is ~25% faster in my tests). But if it is causing problems I will revert it back. Can you please test with the old build http://megui.org/auto/ffmpeg-git-a254452.7z and with some other builds e.g. http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win32/static/ffmpeg-20120903-git-5d55830-win32-static.7z and report back.

[Zathor]

Thanks, to be honest the first log file is too long (and the other errors happen because the first pass did not run). Can you please close MeGUI, start it again and then add only one file to OneClick and start it? This log file should be (hopfully) easier to read.

Also do you have this problem with all files in OneClick? Only in OneClick? Can you upload (a part of) one file?

[cpasmoi]

thanks... i was using "2nd pass" instead of auto 2 pass... for the other error i posted in the bug report thread http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1592472#post1592472
i try to find a tool to cut the videos and i add some samples

[luke83]

I have updated yesterday the ffmpeg build (it was one year old and the current one is ~25% faster in my tests). But if it is causing problems I will revert it back. Can you please test with the old build http://megui.org/auto/ffmpeg-git-a254452.7z and with some other builds e.g. http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win32/static/ffmpeg-20120903-git-5d55830-win32-static.7z and report back.
I have tried both dev server ffmpeg version and stable version ff server and they give me error.

This is the version I've used from stable server:

[Pulp Catalyst]

Hi, how would i go about doing a 2pass encode, ASP or x264 but the 1st pass ignoring some of the filters (as this is just a Turbo pass), and the 2nd pass is where the slower filters engage,


for example QTGMC is really slow when using the advance features, but having QTGMC running on both passes is really inefficient, so is it possible in AVISynth to turn QTGMC on only on the second pass, or is there another approach to this situation altogether?

thanks.

[Zathor]

I have tried both dev server ffmpeg version and stable version ff server and they give me error.

If both are failing for you it must be the source file. Did other (more simple) avs files work for you?

...so is it possible in AVISynth to turn QTGMC on only on the second pass, or is there another approach to this situation altogether?
Use the "pre-rendering job". That way a intermediate file will be generated with the AVS script and this file will be used then for 1st and 2nd pass.

[Pulp Catalyst]

thanks, wondered a few times what pre-render was for, almost right, just wrong context though.


so does the pre-render turn off all filters for 1st pass, then automatically turns them on for 2nd pass?

just trying to understand the inner workings what Add Pre-Rendering function actually does?

[Zathor]

It will add a pass before the first pass creating an intermediate AVI file (lossless quality = huge!) which will then be used in the 1st/2nd pass of the xvid/x264 encode. Depending on the AVS script this may speed up the process a lot.

[luke83]

If both are failing for you it must be the source file. Did other (more simple) avs files work for you?.

it fails with 1 more avs file too. However, the preview doesn't give me any error.
I've used that same avs script 72 times, becouse I'm encoding Lupin dvd. I've arrived at 73th episode and now megui doesn't work :/

[icon]

Can someone help me with my (seems to be) simple task?

I am taking DV avi and cutting them in Vdub and saving as direct stream copies. I am importing them into megui's one click encoder. Converting the video to 264 in a mkv container with the audio converted from 2ch wav to 2ch ac3. I am adding deinterlacing and such to the avisynth script. I also add FadeIO() to script to do a fade in and fade out.

It fades in/out the video just fine, but it does not fade the audio even though it should. I notice the one click encoder creates a separate audio avs script. This is probably my problem.

Essentially, I would like 264 video, ac3 audio in a mkv container with the audio and video faded in and faded out. Please help me if you can. Thanks.

[WIRLYWIRLYPOOL]

A friend of mine gave me some clips he encoded in 10bit depth...my job is to resize them...I've been using a 32bit computer and never had problems with 8bit depth or 10bit depth...I just finished building my new 64bit PC so now I'm using that...However, when I load my avisynth script into MeGui the preview is a solid green color...if I queue it nothing happens...the running time just increases but it doesn't encode at all...even if I load it into MPC its a solid green :/ ...This ONLY happens when I'm encoding a 10bit depth source...The clip plays fine in VLC...I've tried different x264.exe's but none fix the problem :/ ...I'm using (and need to keep using) "x264.exe_64" 8bit depth...Can anyone help me out? :/

[LigH]

Details, details, details.

AviSynth 2.58 or 2.60, 32-bit or 64-bit? Which source filter to load the video? If DirectShowSource: Correct DirectShow splitter and decoder filters (32-bit / 64-bit) installed, and are they specifically able to decode 10-bit AVC? If other source filter (DG / FFMS2 -- preferable over DirectShow): Specific version?

Avisynth 2.60 32 bit

I'm using "DSS2" and yes I have the correct plugin to use it (If I use "DirectShowSource" the audio gets off sync, so I would like to keep using "DSS2")

I have "Haali media splitter" the "Lav Filters" from the "x264.nl" site, and "ffdshow" (I believe these are the "Directshow splitter" & "Decoder filter" you spoke of. I'm still fairly new at this :P)

And my Codec pack is "CCCP" (It worked fine for my needs on my 32bit computer)

I have MeGui fully updated and I have the NeroaacENC as well


I would also like to point out that I could encode an 8bit depth source PERFECTLY. The green screen problem ONLY occurs when I try using a 10bit depth source.

[the_weirdo]

@WIRLYWIRLYPOOL:

I assume your sources are 10-bit H.264 in MKV or MP4, right? Then you should use FFMS2 instead.

P.S. I don't know I should answer your question. Because I don't think those files are legitimate.

[WIRLYWIRLYPOOL]

^ Yah that worked :D but MeGui crashes sometimes when I open the preview or queue the job :/ Is they're a way I can keep using DSS2?

I'm using the Cplugin version of FFMS2...I couldn't tell which of the 7 I was suppose to use, so I grabbed the one that said avisynth plugin :P

P.S
No its not an illegal file, its a video that my friend is sending to his mom for her B-day, but he needed it to be resized because he only knows how to load things in meGui and hit start...I'm learning some avisynth functions & one I learned is Bilinearresize, so I offered to resize it for him ;)

[Asmodian]

for example QTGMC is really slow when using the advance features, but having QTGMC running on both passes is really inefficient, so is it possible in AVISynth to turn QTGMC on only on the second pass, or is there another approach to this situation altogether?

I just want to point out that this would be a really bad idea. You do not want to change anything between the first and second pass, certainly not something as major as weather or not you run QTGMC.

As suggested pre-rendering to a lossless intermediate is the only way. I often pre-render when using a slow QTGMC even when doing a crf encode, just in case I want to use different x264 options later.

[Pulp Catalyst]

unfortunately the time save in one spot, i loose more than so in creating the temp file, further more, the extra strain that is being put on my HD is just not on for me.

seems then QTGMC in just not practical in 2pass encoding, unless time is not an issue....


Question, changing subject now,

this following script on my Ivy bridge 3770k (4 core, 8 threads)
is running really slow on first pass x264 encode, the first pass is only using about 20% of cpu, now i have adjusted Setmtmodes using over 20 variants, yet is makes no difference to the FPS (and timer i have running),
my question is where would the bottleneck be?

i should note however that the 2nd pass uses 99% of cpu, and the 1st pass x264 is using turbo & when using handbrake using almost same settings, handbrake gives me about 50-65% on first pass, although not full speed, it is a huge difference over MeGUI (AVISynth) method.

That script should be pretty fast even without MT on a 3770k.

- What video card do you have?
- Run the script through AVSMeter (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=165528) and compare the speed with/without filters (resize, undot).

[Pulp Catalyst]

good idea, 9800gt by the way, which gives me massive performance gain when doing same script (spline64 720x480), normal avisynth decoding, 18-22fps, GPU decoding (DGI) about double..... will try normal decoding, see what happens, thanks for the tip amout AVSMeter.. try that a bit later.

[Pulp Catalyst]

done a lot more tests, and im baffled completely, i can't for the life of me work out where the bottle neck is on my system

xvid4psp gives me about 60fps using the script that MeGUI made, MeGUI gives me about 40-41fps,

now i have posted the following two scripts, the difference in performance is so low i can't help be baffled buy the results i'm getting which is a 4 fps difference?

one other thing, xvid4psp running either one of these scripts uses about 80-90% of the CPU, MeGUI running either one of the following scripts uses about 40% of CPU but does these heavy drops from time to tim to around 14%, then gradually goes back up, CPU temp is around 68c.... so it's not that, although have not tested hyper-threading as my research has shown that sandy and ivy has this tech fixed)


now the job i am doing is MKV to AVI (xvid) with a downsizing (which you will see in the script)

# Set DAR in encoder to 47 : 20. The following line is for automatic signalling
global MeGUI_darx = 47

the only difference in the scripts is SetMTMode is on for one and off for the other, yet..... i would expect a lot more than 4fps between the two, especially when only 40% of CPU in being utilized,


and like i said above, executing the same script in xvid4psp uses 85-91% of the CPU (but strangely the FPS holds around 60fps, i thought it would be more, but there you go, and this is with MT mode on and off, the same)


done AVSMeter, no matter what i do with the script (apart from stupid things of course), i can't get the average speed above 63fps........ now i came to the conclusion a few hours ago that the bottleneck is Xvid, and nothing todo with the script, which would go onto explain the results i'm getting (or lack of results so to speak).....

but then xvid4psp contradicted my findings, because it was able to use SAME xvid version 1.2.2, with same settings (maxium) running same script, yet used nearly 90% of CPU....

it was here when i figured there's not really much for me to look at, my only other thought was that the avisynth itself could be at fault, but again this did not pan out, xvid4psp 5 series is using the very same avisynth version that i currently have installed here on doom9 (SEt)

now i'm a bit loss, but my current thinking is that megui is slower than xvid4psp for some reason, but i'm hoping i'm wrong on this, and i have overlooked something.

i'm still getting 40fps, so i will just have to accept that, i have posted the above for reference really, if anyone can help, then great, but 40fps is still an acceptable speed even if it should be doing double that, most films will be done in an hour..... can't complain i suppose, just baffling why the multi-threading avisynth isn't kicking in properly, and why is MeGUI so MUCH slower then xvid4psp??? (i mean by slower fps aswell as cpu utilization)

for the record though, still will be using MeGUI, i can get far more done the the GUI then i can is xvid4psp :)


EDIT

found the problem!!!!!!!!!
sometimes by writing things out, gives you ideas.

problem was xvid after all, xvid by default is set too 0 (auto detect cores).... wrong, i manually put it to 4 threads (which is how many real cores the 3770k has.... go figure), fps is starts at 64fps, but does gradually slip down to around 52 and holds around there give or take, so anyway after all that testing Xvid was the cause, i feel moody now, and on that note.....

[Octo-puss]

Pardon my ignorance, but I couldn't find the answer anywhere. Is there 64bit version of MeGUI?

[the_weirdo]

^ Yah that worked :D but MeGui crashes sometimes when I open the preview or queue the job :/ Is they're a way I can keep using DSS2?

I'm using the Cplugin version of FFMS2...I couldn't tell which of the 7 I was suppose to use, so I grabbed the one that said avisynth plugin :P
Please post MediaInfo of your files, or MeGUI log when it crashes. FFMS2 build comes with MeGUI should handle 10-bit H.264 in MKV very well, methinks (I'm using my own build though).


P.S
No its not an illegal file, its a video that my friend is sending to his mom for her B-day, but he needed it to be resized because he only knows how to load things in meGui and hit start...I'm learning some avisynth functions & one I learned is Bilinearresize, so I offered to resize it for him ;)
Hmm... How can he has 10-bit H.264 video while he even doesn't know how to resize it with MeGUI? :confused:

[Pulp Catalyst]

few issues that have been long standing now, never did post them here however, so will do now. (although i feel they are bugs, i can't be sure if it's only happening to me.... which i think must be the case as no one else has reported this behaviour, so posting here instead) have done reinstalls, refreshes that king of thing)

1. oneclick now add an extra step in the process, PGCDEMUX, however it does this even when it appears it's not needed, take for example i RIP a DVD to g drive using DVDShrink in conjunction with ANYDVD, i only rip the main title with the one audio track with no subtitles, however oneclick pgcdemux seems to recreate the VOB files on the very same hard drive the ripped VOB files are located (not only is this a waste as i have already done this with DVDShrink but it also has a huge I/O impact as it's reading and writing from/to same hard drive, the old method did not do this, only two tasks were added (pgcdemux seems knew), i tried deleting the pgcdemux task but megui did not like that.

2. noticed it quite a while ago, sometimes Lame encoder gets stuck, i have managed to reproduce it, and found a way to stop it from happening, although the following sounds weird, it is true for me.

2a AC3/DTS to mp3 - Nicaudio sometimes produces spikes in the final output of the MP3 track (downmixing to stereo - keep source channels - DRC on - normalize 100) however if i use FFaudiosource, the mp3 output is fine, tried several times, nicaudio produces clipping spikes when FFAudio does not, it's reproducable on certain tracks, but does not happen on all tracks of course.

2b if i open the config page for audio - select source (nicaudio/FFaudio) that page, then turn on DRC, then close and agree when it asks to update profile, then try and do a audio encode, megui processes the first part, then opens up lame.exe, but lame gets stuck..... nothing happens, but here's the puzzler, if i go back into the audio config page, turn off audio normalization option but DRC is still left on, close and save to profile, now encode the same track again, it works, lame kicks in and does it's job, and this behaviour is reproducible for me, turn on normalization again, and megui - lame.exe open but just sits there and does nothing, one thing to note here however, if i turn of normalization option yet DRC is still on, if i close the config screen and open it back up, normalization is actually turned back on even though i turned it off!
this is the same with nic and FF alike. (svn2174)

nicaudio is running about half the speed that FFaudio does, is this normal?

nicaudio around 13.36 realtime AC3 to mp3
FFaudio around 29.80 realtime AC3 to mp3

i know some of the above is contradicting in a way, but i can't really explain any better, i have rewritten the above out a few times and tried to clean it up as best as possible, not that it has helped much i know.

[LigH]

2a) You should "normalize" to less than 100%. Sometimes the psychoacoustic removal of frequency components leads to the clipping during the encoding, because even the removed frequencies might have been limiting the volume with a negative factor.

2b) Normalization needs to gather statistics. It has to scan the whole audio once before it knows the loudest volume and can calculate the factor required to push this loudest sample to the desired target volume. Are you sure you waited long enough if it would continue eventually?

[Pulp Catalyst]

i monitor the proceeses, lame.exe is loaded but has 0% cpu utilization, but yes i have waited a longtime, when it first started to happen, like most would i wait for 10, then 20, longest 30minutes..... but with 0% cpu, lame is doing nothing added to the fact no HDD activity

tried the normalize less, 97% then 90%..... but like i said, when nicaudio was used which caused clipping, FFaudio would not..... i just use that all the time now FFaudio that is, so that problem was easy to get around, the other issue however.... is normalization actually on even when i turn it off after going back into the audio config screen, or is it just a false flag showing it's on but really it's not?

like i said above, turn on DRC and normalization, close with save to profile
now open config again, turn off normalization save and close
go back into audio config, and normalization has switched itself back on yet audio encoding still works fine for me..... however if i turn off normalization, then turn it back on (so click it twice), my encode won't work, lame hangs...... strange!!!!

[subair37]

Which is the best audio preset 128bit or 192bit, also i got a basic idea of like

1 create a d2v file and load it using avisynth script creator .

after that only i dont know like scripting cropping , what about the audio delay ? encode both audio and video together ,what about bitrate calculator how to find out the correct bit rate depends if i need 700MB or 1.45GB ?

How can i get rid of audio delay if it is too large usually u get audio stream saperate when u create d2vfile .

how can i get audio in sync with video and how to adjust that ?


some one please help me as i am a baby in ripping and dont know anything about it please help me learn ripping using megui software.

Usually it happens only when i use Pre-rendering job, infact now i'm encoding without it and it works. However it takes a lot of extra time (more than 6 hours); so i can't encode :/

I've resolved by myself reinstalling Avisynth MT. I downloaded the last version from here: http://code.google.com/p/avisynth-mt/downloads/list?can=2&q=AviSynth
Of course you've to unistall the previous version ;)

This morning, infact, MeGui Update had an update about avisynth but, incredbly, it said that there was no avisynth installed O_o
So I've reinstalled it

Now MeGui works as good as before this problem :)

[tebasuna51]

2a AC3/DTS to mp3 - Nicaudio sometimes produces spikes in the final output of the MP3 track (downmixing to stereo - keep source channels - DRC on - normalize 100) however if i use FFaudiosource, the mp3 output is fine, tried several times, nicaudio produces clipping spikes when FFAudio does not, it's reproducable on certain tracks, but does not happen on all tracks of course.

Please, can you upload a sample with the problem?

[subair37]

Hi friends please help me this is the error i got while i was encoding ,when i created d2v file it says y audio stream got a huge delay but dont know how to fix it.Please look at my log file and help me guys please......

Cut the first 50 MB of the first file with DGSplit, upload it to mediafire.com, then post the link here.

Also post your full script.

[Guest]

Uh, your script has this:

DelayAudio(86519.0/1000.0)

That's an 86 second delay you are imposing! You need to change that.

If DGIndex reported a huge delay also, then you do need to provide the file. You may have the dreaded 'black video at the start with no audio' problem too.

[subair37]

Uh, never mind, I don't need the file. Your script has this:

DelayAudio(86519.0/1000.0)

That's an 86 second delay you are imposing! You need to change that.

If DGIndex reported a huge delay also, then you do need to provide the file. You may have the dreaded black video at the start with no audio.

Please advice me how to change that delay or how to fix this ?

[Guest]

Looking at your log I see the demuxed file has the big delay. I need the file I asked for. The first 50 MB of the first file that you loaded into DGIndex.

You can also try reloading the files in DGIndex, then doing > to skip all black video at the start, and then hit [, finally save your project.

If MEGUI did it with one click or something, then you have to do it manually.

Do you see black video at the start? I don't like to play 20 questions so please try to respond to all the information and suggestions you are given. Thank you.

[Zathor]

1. oneclick now add an extra step in the process, PGCDEMUX, however it does this even when it appears it's not needed, take for example i RIP a DVD to g drive using DVDShrink in conjunction with ANYDVD, i only rip the main title with the one audio track with no subtitles, however oneclick pgcdemux seems to recreate the VOB files on the very same hard drive the ripped VOB files are located (not only is this a waste as i have already done this with DVDShrink but it also has a huge I/O impact as it's reading and writing from/to same hard drive, the old method did not do this, only two tasks were added (pgcdemux seems knew), i tried deleting the pgcdemux task but megui did not like that.
This task will be added if the selected DVD/VOB has more than one PGC. If you have more than one HDD you should specify the working directory to be on a different drive than input and ouput.
EDIT: Please post the log so that we can see if the input has more than one PGC.

[Pulp Catalyst]

i already specified temp directory on h in settings, i then mux outputs to e or z, now having to set ANOTHER temp directory..... it's getting quite silly with all these temp directories to be honest and i get confused sometimes where everything is..... can't you add more abilities in global setting regarding temps like DVD-Rebuilder does

temp folder
working folder
default output folder
default pgcdemux folder

kind of thing.....

as for log, next time i do a batch of encodes i keep the logs.... probably next week sometime now

[Zathor]

You have only three directories in OneClick mode:

- Input folder
- Working directory (temp)
- Output folder

The default working (and output) directory can be specified in the OneClick profile settings.

I think that these three directories are sufficient. Main HDD activity is during demux (input --> working) and mux (working -> output).

what is meant by Black video ? is it video with no audio ? i played this on a vlc media player and find that in the begining first 35 seconds there is only begining vredits with no audio .this is actually a south indian DVD which i made the d2v file from video ts folder main movie title VTS02_1 to all the wau up to VTS02_8.

[Guest]

Any video without matching audio at the start is potentially going to be an issue. Please provide the file I asked for. Without it, I cannot advise you of the proper solution to the problem. Again, I need the first 50MB of the first VOB that you loaded into DGIndex to make the project. Open the VOB in DGSplit, select chunks, 50MB, and check Stop after 1. Then hit Split. Upload the resulting file to mediafire.com and post the link here.

[LigH]

DG*Dec was made to process only one PGC; indexing a VTS with several PGCs (you can't see that only by looking at the VOB files!) is one of the most common reasons of asynchronous audio.

That means: Either rip your DVD with a DVD Ripper set up in "IFO mode" or in "Movie mode" or whatever it is called, so that only the main movie gets extracted, not the whole DVD with all extras.

Or, if you already ripped the whole DVD, use PGCDemux to extract only one PGC from the whole DVD content.


And, well, as already told: There are many tutorials and basic guides one should already know before deciding to use an advanced tool like MeGUI which was made for already experienced users. MeGUI does not even do the "ripping" (means: the copying from the DVD to the harddisk, and possibly the decrypting). It only does the conversion. But the user is expected to have basic knowledge about DVD-Video already.

The very latest versions now introduced PGC handling. But this feature is so new, I do not yet know how users are supposed to use it. I have to learn this part just like others...

Hi, I checked out source code from the repository with 2188 and built it with VS2008 but was not successful. The VS2008 have many error messages as following:
...
The type or namespace name 'OneClickAudioTrack' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
The type or namespace name 'x264Device' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
The type or namespace name 'OneClickAudioSettings' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
The type or namespace name 'SubtitleTrackInfo' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
The type or namespace name 'MkvInfo' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
The type or namespace name 'OneClickStreamControl' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
...
I looked at source but not found OneClickStreamControl, OneClickAudioTrack, x264Device ... anywhere? I think it missed these classes.
Anyone could help me how to get the lastest source code to build successfully? Or how to build it?

Thank.
