I guys, it's a long time that I don't check the forum (and I don't use x264), but I'm come back XD.
I've noticed that in the last versions of x264 there is a problem with the VUI settings. Generally I add in the custom command line options in megui various VUI settings, but mainly the videoformat and the color matrix (I keep the values of the original DVD).
But now it gives an error. can you try it by yourselves?

Sorry if I'm double posting, I know that it's not a good thing, but it seems like my report wasn't noticed. Please coudl I know where I could report this bug?
This is an example of command-line that doesn't work at least from the rev 551 (tested until rev 565):
[C:\Programmi\x264\x264.exe --bitrate 1000 --level 3.1 --ref 5 --mixed-refs --no-fast-pskip --bframes 3 --b-pyramid --b-rdo --bime --weightb --direct auto --subme 7 --trellis 2 --analyse p8x8,b8x8,i4x4 --me umh --merange 32 --thread-input --progress --no-dct-decimate --sar 1:1 --overscan "undef" --videoformat "pal" --colorprim "bt709" --transfer "bt709" --colormatrix "bt709" --output "C:\FLCL_DVD_2\VIDEO_TS\FLCL_OP.264" "C:\FLCL_DVD_2\VIDEO_TS\FLCL_OP.avs"
x264 [error]: invalid argument: videoformat = pal
Thanks

These arguments do not belong in the x264 commandline:
--overscan "undef" --videoformat "pal" --colorprim "bt709" --transfer "bt709" --colormatrix "bt709"

Those are valid options.
@Hyper Shinchan:
I do not know if x264 checks for this, but is your video valid PAL? (say 720x576@25 fps)

They are valid, but their settings are broken.

I don't think that it checks for the validity of the settings, but it doesn't work also if you remove the --videoformat argument. All these settings are showed as invalid and x264 refuses to sets them.

Three of the settings checkers (videoformat, colorprim, and colormatrix) were broken in the source, the names didn't match the actual argument names. I'll send the patch to akupenguin.

Thank you very much! Finally it will be fixed, I'm so glad :)
