I've been using Avisynth to take the commercials out of my DVR videos and then encode them using x264 in MEncoder. For some reason, it encodes completely fine except that MEncoder crashes after each pass of every video, meaning that the videos come out fine but I have to click to "Close mencoder" after each pass which gets pretty annoying. MEncoder does not crash when I encode directly from the source video, or when I encode other videos edited in Avisynth, only with this specific combination. Anyone have any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?
Sample Avisynth file:
AviSource("video.avi")
a = Trim(221,24487)
b = Trim(31401,47187)
a ++ b
