At the moment, x264 reports '2pass failed to converge' (and associated messages about target bitrate and qp_min) as an error, but it continues to encode nevertheless. This is annoying for MeGUI, because the easy solution for detecting errors (checking whether error is in the string) doesn't work. I think the correct solution would be to have that particular error only classed as a warning, not an error, because it is not fatal, and it isn't like it will cause quality to suffer.
