XviD profiles are already available with MeGUI. Look under profiles\video in the MeGUI r00t directory. From the GUI:

Error opening input file extra\Didees SixOfNine.cqm
xvid_encraw - raw mpeg4 bitstream encoder written by Christoph Lampert 2002-2003

C'mon, use s-e-a-r-c-h!

MeGUI expects the CQM in question inside a subfolder called extra. Either create that directory and put the CQM in there OR point MeGUI to where that CQM is on your PC. XviD Encoder Configuration -> Zones -> Other Options -> Quantizer Matrix.

[nrahim]

srry if i`m bothering.. but is there a specific matrix i need or can i use any?? coz i one dats labelled Ultimate Matrix... but if there is a specfic one.. which directory should it be in? coz i looked for it and i can't find it?? can u plz post the matrix i need here.. thnx in advance

[unskinnyboy]

If you are using profiles, depending on the profile you select, a certain CQM will be recommended. About which directory and what to do etc, read my previous post carefully. I already explained that. Search the forum to get links to various CQMs. Or if you have installed Koepi's XviD build, a bunch of CQMs should have been installed in a zip file along with the XviD installation itself. Didée's 6of9 should be in there.

[nrahim]

ok..thnx for ur help UsB using Bulletproof's High Quality Matrix.cqm with Xvid>90% comp check(HQ) .. any comments UsB? btw is a DVDrip 640x272

[foxyshadis]

Why not 6of9? And why resize down if you're going to use a detailed matrix? The point of resizing is to remove detail, the point of a high-bitrate matrix is to retain detail, two purposes at odds with each other.

[nrahim]

um.. serached the fourms but can't fine the SixOfNine.cqm or on ma pc... can anyone gimme the file or link???

[GodofaGap]

There is a subforum for XviD, there is a subforum for MeGUI, so what the hack is this doing in the Avisynth forum???

[nrahim]

hey can anyone post the SixOfNine.cqm seem to be missing it...plz

[foxyshadis]

It's available in the xvid presets thread, along with the cqms used in the other profiles.

[nrahim]

srry.. guys i`m a new here.. but can u guys plz post a direct link to downloading the matrix coz i cant find it even in the xvid presets thread which has over 15pages... plz guys thnx

I added this earlier today: http://mewiki.project357.com/MeGUI_FAQ#Encoding_with_xvid_doesn.27t_work

[shadell]

Where is MeGUI looking for the extras folder?
I copied the matrices to
D:\Program Files\megui\tools\xvid_encraw\extra

I also tried
D:\Program Files\megui\extra

But I still get the error
"Error opening input file extra\....xcm"

Perhaps it is a bug?
I'm using Windows 2000.

[check]

Just extract them to wherever and manually set the correct path in the xvid codec config.

[kurt]

download @ http://www.x264.nl/ megui and install it in a new folder

run autoupdate and select the desired xvid profiles during installation. then it should work ...

you can also import the profiles manually

But wouldnt it be nice if there were some xvid profiles for MeGUI for 1CD & 2CD. I googled, but couldnt find any...

Have attached the XviD Presets...an XviD Presets Profile which is an overview of what the XviD Presets file contains in table/excel format...and of course have got the 6of9 by didee. Good luck.

This thread can probably be closed now if a mod agrees with me..Can someone please approve these attachments :p

Same problem here.
What's the default folder? It's kind of annoying to manually selct the matrix.

[Leergutdieb]

I did exactly as stated in the wiki but it still doesn't work.

[Sharktooth]

I did exactly as stated in the wiki but it still doesn't work.
it is quite impossible.

@mods: can you please move the thread?

[Chainmax]

Sharktooth, do you think it would be possible to include AutoGK's "ESS-based standalones" and "MTK/Sigma based standalones" standalone compatibility options in MeGUI's profiles?

[Sharktooth]

Dont know. Have to check what restrictions should be applied and if xvid_encraw have the right options to apply those restrictions.

[Chainmax]

Would you like me to PM len0x and ask him about this?

[Lenchik]

Same problem here.

Just an idea (not tested by me, yet). xvidencraw.exe searches for "extra\*.*" in the place he is situated, so we need to place "extra" folder near xvidencraw.
May it help to change version of xvidencraw used?

offtop:
Is there a package of megui with all additional programs, profiles in the right paths? It is license problem or something else to create such package?
