Hello all. Sorry abaut my English.

I'm trying to encode a video from my HV20 with x264 with a very slow avisynth script. Some test clips that I've did before were encoded at 0,4fps.

I've a big hard disk so I plan to encode the avisynth script to a losseless format first an then I'll do a two-pass encoding with x264.

Is there any method to generate the losseless encoding while doing the first pass of x264 and do the 2nd pass with the losseless file?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards.

Search for "twriteavi", an avisynth filter that can create a lossless file as the script is processed.
