MeGUI: bug reports and feature requests

[Kurtnoise]

In the Settings -> Extra Configuration tab, uncheck "Always backup files when needed" and save...

[Zathor]

When you may have some more time again, Zathor ... would you consider supporting L-SMASH Source (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=167435) (LWLibavVideoSource, LWLibavAudioSource) too?
What kind of benefits are there compared to FFMS?

[LigH]

a) improved compatibility (e.g. with PAFF interlaced AVC, or out of Transport Streams);
b) improved decoding speed (in a specific test on a Phenom-II X4, LSS was about 1.5x as fast as FFMS with a FullHD AVC source encoded with x264 --crf 6);
c) LSMASHVideoSource has a specific splitter for ISO/MPEG4 related containers (MP4, MOV)

I believe VFR maniac (http://forum.doom9.org/member.php?u=166977) can tell you more "advertizing" ... ;)

Hi

is there a way to disable the vbv warnings? Personally I don't use vbv bufsize/maxrate and I find the warnings on logs or the ! on tray icon are a bit annoying.

[Zathor]

It is not possible to disable those warnings. Why do you not want to add VBV values when a level is specified?

[Kunda]

After updating MeGUI with the latest files, MeGUI didnt care about bitrate setting in the coniguration part of encodersettings for xvid if automated 2 pass is enabled and autoencode is selected with "no target size(Use profile settings)"-option. It even dont care about the given bitrate after clicking on autoencode and filling in a specific bitrate.

Files are encoded at a very low bitrate, regardless of the complexity of the movie.

I dont know why this happens. It didnt happen before. Is it possible MeGUI dont find or cant open the stats file?

Im using Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.

[mini-moose]

It is not possible to disable those warnings. Why do you not want to add VBV values when a level is specified?

thanks for replying to both my questions. I just never used vbv settings before. From what I read it has to do with streaming and constrained bw. Not an issue for me. I can live with the warnings, it would just be "easier" on my eyes without them :)
On a different matter...AutoEncode - I usually load avs and audio file for encode, and then use AutoEncode. I like to tag the language of my audio, which can only be done in this routine if I check "add additional content". Then there's a language dialog. It's fine when there's real content to add, but when it's something rather minor like language tag, I find it would be more useful to be able to add it on previous stages (like the first automatic encoding dialog box). Also the list of available languages is alphabetical, and has dozens of "less common" languages listed before say English/French/Spanish etc. Be nice if it was like mkvtoolnix that offers the more --common-- languages first and --All-- after.

[LigH]

If you don't expect your files to be played on devices with severely limited reading speed (optical drive, slower memory card/stick, network access) or decoding memory, do not restrict the Profile@Level for the encoder.

[mini-moose]

If you don't expect your files to be played on devices with severely limited reading speed (optical drive, slower memory card/stick, network access) or decoding memory, do not restrict the Profile@Level for the encoder.

That's what I do, but the unrestricted profile has auto guess, so it still warns about vbv. By the way, I do add level in the custom cmd box, I assume it doesn't have the same effect as vbv settings though.

[LigH]

No, x264 would need a combo of Profile, Level, and two VBV options. MeGUI creates the VBV options based on the selected Profile@Level when using its dedicated combobox.

[Kurtnoise]

This is not a bug...:rolleyes:

[Kurtnoise]

So, please explain why you think this is not a bug.
From the current code ;
x264BitrateQuantizer.Maximum = 100000;
x264BitrateQuantizer.Minimum = 0;

The max value is defined as 100000...all values above are clamped to 100000. Nothing more, nothing less.

So, open a feature request instead...

[mini-moose]

You might want to read the following thread:


thanks, I read it. You seem very passionate about vbv restrictions :)

I'm still not convinced I need those. The warnings are a cosmetic annoyance for me and I wondered if there is a way to not have them. I'm sure my life will go on with them too :).

[hello_hello]

It's been a while since it's happened, and I've still no idea why it does, but the aspect ratio problem occurred again today. I'd re-encoded several files (all the same input resolution) while cropping and resizing the same way (no anamorphic encoding). The output was always as expected, except for the last few encodes where MeGUI decided to mess with the aspect ratio for reasons I don't understand.
Since the last time this problem occurred I've reformatted the hard drive and re-installed Windows and all software from scratch.

It does seem odd the DAR of the input video (480x386, 1.304) and the DAR of the output video were basically the same, even though after I cropped and resized it distorted the picture quite a bit. I don't know if that's just co-incidence, or it's possible for MeGUI know the original video's DAR simply by loading a script for encoding.
All I know is the second time I loaded the same script, MeGUI gave me a 640x480 encode with a 4:3 aspect ratio as it should have the first time. I don't understand why sometimes it decides to change it.

[hello_hello]

A minor feature request:

When modifying the contents of the Script tab in the AVS Script Creator, currently the standard Windows keyboard shortcuts for cut copy and paste work, but selecting all with Ctrl+A doesn't. Any chance it could be implemented? While at it, more than one undo level (Ctrl+Z) would be nice along with re-do (Ctrl+Y).

Thanks.

It's been a while since it's happened, and I've still no idea why it does, but the aspect ratio problem occurred again today.
Is that reproducible with this avs file? Do you know how you have created this job? AutoEncode? OneClick? Direct queue?
The video job received a special DAR value and I have no clue where this comes from:
--[Information] [02/07/13 5:29:55 PM] aspect ratio: 30:23 (1.304)
I need to have a look in the code but this should only happen when anamorphic encoding is selected.

http://sourceforge.net/p/megui/bugs/722/
Please post the avs file.

[aMvEL]

After updating to latest rev, 2357, my oneclick-encodes are suddenly resulting in encodes with resolution 16x16, regardless of profile used.

[LigH]

16x16 pixel is the size of the automatic interlacing check, I believe.

Please provide a complete log of your conversion.

After updating to latest rev, 2357, my oneclick-encodes are suddenly resulting in encodes with resolution 16x16, regardless of profile used.

I do not have that problem and therefore I need more information. Please post first the complete log of the conversion as Ligh suggested.

There is no newer "semi-official" build available:

[hello_hello]

The video job received a special DAR value and I have no clue where this comes from:
--[Information] [02/07/13 5:29:55 PM] aspect ratio: 30:23 (1.304)
I need to have a look in the code but this should only happen when anamorphic encoding is selected.

Unfortunately I can't find a way to reliably reproduce the problem. It just happens once in a while. After it did in the example I posted, I loaded the same script for encoding again (actually it happened twice with 2 different scripts in the queue) and it was then encoded with the correct aspect ratio. This is the first time the problem's returned since I last reported it, which I think was several months ago.

I always add video encoding jobs to the queue directly (ie not via OneClick or Autoencode).
From memory, it's only ever happened when there's a bunch of encoding jobs in the queue. For some reason several jobs in the queue will encode correctly, then inexplicable MeGUI will change the aspect ratio for a few encoding jobs in a row. Once I notice, delete any remaining jobs and re-add them to the queue, things return to normal.

If it happens again, is there anything I can do to help track down the cause aside from posting the log file?

[invy]

What's the deal with the latest update? My encodes using CRF=21 are coming out to like 25-30 MB when they should be around 10 times that size.

EDIT: Seems to be the same problem as a recent user posted.

[mini-moose]

What's the deal with the latest update? My encodes using CRF=21 are coming out to like 25-30 MB when they should be around 10 times that size.

EDIT: Seems to be the same problem as a recent user posted.


uneducated guess is :

unless that's the resolution you are aiming for.

I'm using OneClick profile, but the problem is that I have it set to a resolution of 640 (height), not 16.

[Zathor]

I'm using OneClick profile, but the problem is that I have it set to a resolution of 640 (height), not 16.

2360 [OneClick] fixed using a resolution of 16x16 or lower in some cases (regression of 2357).
2359 [OneClick] fixed adding only the first track when using File\Open in the MainForm. Bug #724
2358 [MediaInfo] enhanced handling of incorrect avs files. Bug #722

If it happens again, is there anything I can do to help track down the cause aside from posting the log file?
Not sure - I have to dig deeper into the code.

[invy]

Looking at the projected filesize of the video i'm encoding, it appears that it back to normal again. Thanks!

[mini-moose]

I've made a one-click encoder preset in which I've set audio/subs language to default to English.
However the muxed result is not showing any language tag.
From what I figured out, if I'm using a preset that has those defaulted to english, I shouldn't need to also set the language
when loading the appropriate audio/sub files. Not quiet sure what the preset default language settings does otherwise.

Another small feature request:

After loading DVD chapters from an ifo file, the Chapter Creator defaults to saving them with a .qpf extension. I don't really know anything about .qpf files so maybe there's a reason for it, but the muxers seem to require either txt or xml chapter files, so saving them with a qpf extension by default seems rather pointless. Could the qpf extension be removed, or the chapters saved as txt files by default?

It's only a little thing, as it's not hard to type *.txt when specifying a chapters file name in order to save it as a text file, but having forgotten to type .txt while naming a chapter file for approximately the 378th time today to later find it was saved as a qpf file I don't seem to be able to use for about the 378th time......

Thanks.

[hello_hello]

Bug report:

It would appear resizing using the script creator is a little broken for both versions 2357 & 2360. Neither will allow the user to resize the height of the video via the up/down arrows. It's also no longer possible to change the resize height by simply typing one in.
The option to have MeGUI automatically suggest a resolution still seems to be working okay, and manually changing the resize width works as it did, but when cropping the height of the video the resize height changes to match that of the remaining video automatically (ignoring the mod? setting), while not allowing the user to change it manually (suggest resolution unchecked).

TXT is already the default extension. So if I write in the save dialogue only the file name without extension .txt will be added automatically. Please describe how you end with an QPF file and I will change it (TXT should be default as QPF is only for the key frames if using the x264 encoder).

Please upload the log. I am interested in the language tags of the original file. The settings in the profile are for selecting those language tracks. They will not change the language tag automatically.

Maybe I'm not understanding the feature right.

The original source files don't have language tags. They are named however they got demuxed. i.e if it's a dvd then something like :
"VTS_01_1 T80 3_2ch 448Kbps DELAY 0ms.ac3"

I renamed it to "VTS_01_1 English 3_2ch 448Kbps DELAY 0ms.ac3" and the lang tag was auto added (tried a few langs).

My thought was that if I set the preset to a default lang it would auto add it to any audio I use, thus saving me the trouble of 1) retagging the source files with a language 2) choose a language from the drop menu every time (as 99.9% of my audios are english).

I did some tests and I'm still unsure what the default lang setting in presets does.

Resizing the height seems to work again but the script creator would no longer allow me to resize the width "up". I could however, upsize the height on it's own.

It might be deliberate (being a test build), but I accidentally opened that build of MeGUI twice and the second time it failed to warn me MeGUI was already running.

TXT is already the default extension. So if I write in the save dialogue only the file name without extension .txt will be added automatically. Please describe how you end with an QPF file and I will change it (TXT should be default as QPF is only for the key frames if using the x264 encoder).

For as long as I can remember it's defaulted to using qpf for me.
I open the chapter creator, open an ifo file, click on save, type in a name without an extension (ie chapter) and a file named chapter.qpf is saved to my drive.
If I'm correct and you've got to fiddle with things there, could the chapter creator create a default name when using save? A default name is generally created for other functions (index files, extracted audio, avs files etc) but not when saving chapters.

Is there a way to force the use of keyframes at chapter points when not using the One Click encoder?

I have another minor request when indexing with ffmsindex. The index file it creates includes the original file extension. ie "video.mkv.ffindex" or "video.avi.ffindex", which in turn results in the script creator creating a script named "video.mkv.avs" which when loaded for encoding defaults to an output name of "video.mkv.mkv" or "video.avi.mkv" etc.
Could the double extension be dropped somewhere in the process so it works the same as when indexing with DGIndex (I'm referring to indexing and creating a script "manually" as I don't use OneClick).
I understand why (I think). ffmsindex doesn't seem as clever as DGIndex, which saves the full path of the source file in the index file it creates so it doesn't matter where the index file itself is located. ffmsindex appears to not do that, and assumes the source file has the same name as the index file and is located in the same folder (hence the index file being named video.avi.ffindex etc).
However given MeGUI adds the info regarding the source file location to the script so the working directory can be in a different location, there's probably no need for the double extension. Even if it's not possible to change the name ffmsindex uses when creating the index file, would it be possible to stop MeGUI from adding the original extension to the output file name? It's only a minor annoyance, admittedly.

Thanks.

The function you are searching for is currently not available. But it should be easy to add an option "if language tag not found treat file as [language]".

Correct, it is a debug build and as I have often several builds running this warning is disabled for debug builds.

For as long as I can remember it's defaulted to using qpf for me.
I open the chapter creator, open an ifo file, click on save, type in a name without an extension (ie chapter) and a file named chapter.qpf is saved to my drive.

Implemented - test above.
Btw I used it the same way as you and for me txt files are generated.

Is there a way to force the use of keyframes at chapter points when not using the One Click encoder?
Yes, you can add it in the x264 preset (but then you have to edit your preset for every encode). Why are you not using OneClick? You can add your avs file as input, point to the chapter file, ...

I have another minor request when indexing with ffmsindex. The index file it creates includes the original file extension. ie "video.mkv.ffindex" or "video.avi.ffindex", [...]
Could the double extension be dropped somewhere in the process so it works the same as when indexing with DGIndex?

Maybe, but that involves rewriting a lot of stuff and using the cache parameter for every FFVideoSource call as the "double extension" is the default of FFVideoSource.

[mini-moose]

If you can add such an option that would be great. Unless I'm reading you wrong and there is one already (I can't find such).

Yep, the resizing seems to be working as it should again now.

Implemented - test above.

Why I always got qpf files I don't know, but now it's great. A name for the chapter file is automatically generated and it defaults to being a text file. You're awesome! :)

Yes, you can add it in the x264 preset (but then you have to edit your preset for every encode). Why are you not using OneClick? You can add your avs file as input, point to the chapter file, ...

Ahhhh..... I see where to add it now. I must have missed it last time I looked.
I've never used the OneClick encoder before. Ever. Well I think I tried it once a long time ago and no doubt it's changed a lot since then but I've always done it the "manual" way. I guess I should give One click another look.....

Maybe, but that involves rewriting a lot of stuff and using the cache parameter for every FFVideoSource call as the "double extension" is the default of FFVideoSource.

Oh well, it was just a thought. I guess deleting the double extension isn't too hard.

Thanks again!

I had a bit of a play and to be honest I'm not seeing any real difference in respect to the time it takes to set up an encoding job between adding the script and chapter file to OneClick or adding the qpf file to the x264 encoder setup before adding the video encoding job directly.
Of course in a perfect world there'd be a place to add the chapter file in MeGUI's main window in the video section so there'd be no need to change the x264 encoder settings for each encode. ;) The same way a cuts file is added to the audio section.
Actually in an even more perfect world the File/Open menu would let you open an ifo file and MeGUI would then automatically extract the chapters and subtitles while it does the indexing to save having to do each manually. Sort of like using OneClick, except you get to preview the encode and make adjustments using the script creator.

Another thought on naming:
When opening an ifo file for encoding with AutoGK, it'd automatically name the output file according to the name of the folder containing the ripped DVD files. ie if the ripped DVD files were in a folder named "DVDvideo" then AutoGK would automatically name the output file DVDvideo.avi

Maybe that'd be an idea when opening a folder full or ripped files with OneClick, so then you could open and set up several DVD encodes without them all having the same output name such as VTS_01_1.mkv
I wouldn't object if MeGUI auto-named the output files in a similar manner when opening a set of vob files for indexing using the File/Open menu, but it'd really only be practical for vob files.

Thanks for fixing the 16x16-bug.

Something I'm also wondering, is why indexing (Creating DGI) takes so long with some files.
I am currently encoding some Friends blu-ray-episodes. The source files are mkv-files created with makemkv.

Indexing them with MeGUI takes over 10 minutes, while opening and indexing manually with dgindexnv takes about 30secs.

Here is a log-file of just simply indexing the file, if that helps:

MeGUI does 2 steps - 1st it demuxes the audio stream from the MKV, then it indexes and creates the DGI file

DGIndexNV only does the index part when you Save Project

Yes, but isn't 10 minutes indexing and demuxing excessive for a 22min episode?

[Zathor]

Maybe, depends on the size of the file and the speed of your HDD. But you can execute the command line found in the log directly (without MeGUI). If you get the same result and you think that the time is too high you should report that also to neuron2. E.g. here: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=147945

[aMvEL]

It seems after limited testing that it's because of the mkv-files makemkv makes.. if I remux them with mkvmerge they are a lot faster to index.

Yes, uploaded a day ago :rolleyes:
Also this build does not include your mentioned change.
EDIT: and also this build cannot create mp4 files.

[Kunda]

Hi,

the last months i had captured an anime-series by using the web-service "save.tv".

Mediainfo says the original captures are around 1478 Kbps, 720*576 (16:9) 25,000 FPS, AVC (PAL) (High@L1.3) (5 Ref Frames) for the video-stream and 228 Kbps, 44,1 KHz, 2 Channel, AAC (LC).

The last captures had a size around 257 MB.

For a higer compatibility with my home entertainment hardware i reencoded those captures using automated two pass xvid at 1700 Kbps. (Converting AVC to xvid and AAC to mp3).

For the last 102 episodes (and approx 3 versions of MeGUI) each reencode results in a filesize around 275 MB.

Since the last update to version 2356, MeGui didnt produce those 275 MB files. The reencoded files were shown with around 700 Kbps by Mediainfo instead of around 1700 Kbps and a size of around 140 MB instead of those 275 MB.

Encoding is still done with automated 2 Pass in 1700 KBps.

Is there a possibiltiy to force megui to use the settings as it did before the update? Is there a possibility to downgrade the software?

Lifesaver ;-) Thanks, works as intended again.

Please post the log.
Usually i dont mess with logs. I'm a user not a tester or developer. So i dont know where MeGUI stores its logs or their filenames.
