i am using megui and have been playing around with the preset profiles. now i'm hoping to add some commandlines in there to help myself out. the one i'm looking to add at present is the "--aq-strength 0.5".
but when i go to the profile and add it, it places the segment behind the rest:
--crf 18 --ref 3 --mixed-refs --bframes 3 --b-pyramid --b-rdo --bime --weightb --filter -2,-1 --subme 6 --trellis 1 --analyse all --8x8dct --vbv-maxrate 25000 --me umh --threads 2 --thread-input --progress --no-psnr --no-ssim --output "D:\Temp\dvdbackup\VIDEO_TS\testclip.mkv" "D:\Temp\dvdbackup\VIDEO_TS\testclip.avs" --aq-strength 0.5

this causes the encode to fail. i figure the commandline should be mixed in with the others, but cant seem to get it in there.

i'm sure this is a quick fix but i can't find a guide on using custom commandlines.
thanks-

The order doesn't matter I think. You might not have the AQ-patched version of x264.

only the Sharktooth build contain the AQ patch

CEF and CelticDruid build misses this patch
