MeGUI: bug reports and feature requests

[Hotpocketdeath]

Ok, I've started to play with x265, but I'm running into an error when trying it out in x265.

When x265 is selected, hitting "Auto-Encode" brings up the error:

"First Pass Encoding is not supported for Automatic Encoding as no Output is generated.
Please choose another encoding mode."

But I'm not not trying to encode with multiple passes. And in the Settings, under "Automated Encoding", I can not choose anything less than 2 passes. I think this is what is causing the problem and I don't know how to eliminate it.

Thanks

MeGUI calculates it in this way:
AR Error = 1-((Input Width*Output Height)/(Output Width*Input Height)) (which is the same as in http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=130085#post130085)
Which is in this case:
AR Error = 1-((714*480)/(704*480))=1-(714/704)=-0,014204545454545=-1,4204545454545%

You and Yoda are calculating it:
AR Error = 1-((704*480)/(714*480))=1-(704/714)=0,0140056022408964=1,40056022408964%

Which one is correct?

You can say (with simplified values) that 100 is 33% larger than 75 - and 75 is 25% smaller than 100. So both are showing a correct aspect ratio error but the point of view is different. Staxrip for example is using the same as MeGUI. Which is the most common point of view? I can change it if required.

It should match video_size_calc-1_0_1 and gordianknot, or, rather, has been done for. http://thumbnails109.imagebam.com/33179/b1f0a1331787286.jpg (http://www.imagebam.com/image/b1f0a1331787286)

I have updated the stable build to 2500 on the update server. In order to save bandwidth during this initial change to the new update method only a few basic packages have been updated yet (3,5MB instead of the whole 35MB). In a few weeks I will update everything else including sourceforge.

[Zathor]

2502 [Update] fixed freeze when adding new custom update servers. Bug #769
2501 [Update] removed update server megui.xvidvideo.ru for the stable branch as it cannot be synced anymore
[Update] increased update data refresh interval to 10 days for the stable server

Hi
MeGUI is unable to load warpsharp.(was able before I updated megui and its packages)

Did you check that warpsharp.dll actually exists in the directory C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\tools\avisynth_plugins\?

[leon]

Did you check that warpsharp.dll actually exists in the directory C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\tools\avisynth_plugins\?

Did you read my post completely ? :)
MeGUI was able to load warpsharp before I update it , this means that warpsharp.dll was in that directory(and still is).

[Guest]

Maybe the install changed your configured plugin directory.

[leon]

Maybe the install changed your configured plugin directory.

if you mean update , no
it has nothing to do with plugins directories.
I loaded it twice from different directories but still it doesnt work.

[Zathor]

MeGUI does not change anything outside of its own directory.

What happens when you open the AVS script outside of MeGUI? E.g. in MPC-HC or VirtualDub? If you get the same message it has nothing to do with MeGUI.

http://i57.tinypic.com/jtrvwp.jpg

then what is the problem ?
this error occurs since I updated megui from 2493 to 2505 and avisynth plugin from 2 to 3.
I tried other versions of Avisynth but the same error occurs.

megui shows this error when vcomp.dll is in avisynth plugin directory.

If you open the script in VirtualDub, what happens?

Why can't you use VD plugins with Avisynth+?

Be patient with us, we are trying to help.

if you mean for warpsharp, yes I've tried many other directories too.

Make sure all your load lines come first before anything else.

That's a generic script you use "most of the time"? I'd like to see the exact script that gives the error in Avisynth+. If you don't want to give it, fine, but then I'll leave it to others to try to help.

Also, you've been talking about warpsharp.dll but you have loadplugin lines for both warpsharp.dll and awarpsharp.dll. Try loading only the one you really use.

Finally, make a simple script that just loads warpsharp and see what happens. You need to remove all the other complicating factors. If that works you can start adding stuff back to see what causes the problem.

IMHO, you have a case of filteritis too.

[Groucho2004]

most of the time I use this script.
As neuron2 already pointed out, this script is almost impossible to debug. We don't know what's inside the avsi files, what's your autoload directory and what it contains, etc.

I've already given that script that Avisynth+ cant open because of VD_CCD plugin (not warpsharp.dll).

with Avisynth warpsharp error occurs and with Avisynth+ VD plugin error.

and why do you think I have a case of filteritis?

[Guest]

OK, so your problem is with loading VD_CCD. Can you please give me a link to download it (without having to install Hybrid) and I will try it here.

I have found ccd.vdf but not ccd_sse2.vdf. Please check in your specified directory that ccd_sse2.vdf is present.

Filteritis means you use filters willy-nilly without regard for the actual source video.

[Guest]

Apparently this is a known problem:

http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=165311

This is not a MeGUI issue and so you should continue in that thread. If you can give me a link to ccd_sse2.vdf, I will look into it and follow up in that thread.

Or, try this:

LoadVirtualDubPlugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\ccd_sse2.vdf", "CamCD", 1)

CamCD is the right name for the SSE2 version, it seems.

Or, consider using the suggested replacement in the last post of the cited thread.

OK, so your problem is with loading VD_CCD. Can you please give me a link to download it (without having to install Hybrid) and I will try it here.

I have found ccd.vdf but not ccd_sse2.vdf. Please check in your specified directory that ccd_sse2.vdf is present.

Filteritis means you use filters willy-nilly without regard for the actual source video.

my 1st problem wasnt VD_CCD megui showed error about this VD plugin when I uninstalled Avisynth 2.6.0.4 and because of this megui used Avisynth+ 2.6.0.5 and when I install Avisynth 2.6.0.4 this problem fixes but warpsharp error returns.

I use filters when I need them and have an effect on my video.

Apparently this is a known problem:

This is not a MeGUI issue and so you should continue in that thread. If you can give me a link to ccd_sse2.vdf, I will look into it and follow up in that thread.

Or, try this:

LoadVirtualDubPlugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\ccd_sse2.vdf", "CamCD", 1)

I did it and this is the result:

I can stop using ccd but it solves the problem?

AviSynth+ developers may have decided to omit the obsolete VDF plugins loading feature; "ancient" VDF plugins only worked in RGB24 color space which reduces the speed and quality if all the other filters work in YUV. VirtualDub supported YUV plugins not before version 1.9, I believe...

It is certainly recommendable to clean up your heap of plugins and start to wonder if this mass really is the optimum for you, a third of them seems to be used to fix side effects of over-filtering of previous ones. More careful filtering is often better than fixing the debris of gone-mayhem. And most certainly, many VirtualDub plugins can be substituted by other native AviSynth plugins.

Similar issues, just no replacement yet. But I know that Fizick (http://avisynth.org.ru/fizick.html) has a bunch of interesting specialist filters regarding video technology related noise; worth a look.

Tried this with several Avisynth versions (2.5.8, 2.6.0 A5, AVS+ r1576), it works with all of them. However, in AVS+ I have to specify the full path for the plugin, otherwise I get the 0x7e error.

ok I stop using VD plugins but what about my 1st error ?(stop using warpsharp too? :) )
when working with bad video sources more filters are required.
without filters those videos arent watchable.

Read my last post and also upload the exact version of warpsharp that gives you problems somewhere.

No problem here with warpsharp.dll. One thing that comes to mind is that you have a huge mess in your autoload directory. Clean it up and try again. Try also loading the scripts in VirtualDub instead of megui.

[LigH]

The tools\avs\AviSynth.dll (AviSynth+ 2.6.0.5, Jan. 2014) – which is used as fallback by MeGUI when no installed AviSynth is detected – does indeed not contain a declaration for LoadVirtualDubPlugin.

Well yes, it has been "externalised" into VDubFilter.dll among other functions that used to be in the core. It's still part of Avisynth+.

[LigH]

This DLL is included in tools\avs\plugins. So if it is not available for AviSynth+ at runtime, then either updating the "AviSynth portable" package in MeGUI failed (so the DLL is not where it is supposed to be), or some evil software keeps AviSynth in any version from using plugins in their respective auto-load folder(s).

Can you please tell me what version of Avisynth did you use for testing warpsharp.
there is nothing in my avisynth plugin directory I also tried other directories to load warpsharp like "C:\"
there is many filters in my "MeGUI\tools\avisynth_plugin" but avisynth+ can load warpsharp from there.
after uninstalling avisynth VD cant open avs scripts.

I also tried to open my script and load warpsharp in Windows 8.1 but it didnt work too.

As already mentioned, I tried several Avisynth versions - 2.5.7, 2.5.8, 2.6.0, AVS+. The warpsharp.dll and the ccd_sse2.vdf you uploaded work with all of them.
Your problem seems to be related to megui which I have never used. There are more qualified people here to help you with that.

Ok, I've started to play with x265, but I'm running into an error when trying it out in x265.

When x265 is selected, hitting "Auto-Encode" brings up the error:

"First Pass Encoding is not supported for Automatic Encoding as no Output is generated.
Please choose another encoding mode."

But I'm not not trying to encode with multiple passes. And in the Settings, under "Automated Encoding", I can not choose anything less than 2 passes. I think this is what is causing the problem and I don't know how to eliminate it.

Thanks

So any word on how to use Auto-Encode with x265 without getting this error?

[LigH]

Do not use Auto-Encode, because Auto-Encode is made for quickly running a 2-pass encoding with target size, and x265 does not yet support it. This is not a bug.

Until 2-pass encoding will be implemented, use x265 only for quality based encoding (or 1-pass ABR encoding), which is not supported by the Auto-Encode feature.

Instead, manually create a job, and let it run in the Queue.

[hello_hello]

Until 2-pass encoding will be implemented, use x265 only for quality based encoding (or 1-pass ABR encoding), which is not supported by the Auto-Encode feature.

Quality based x264/xvid encoding is supported by AutoEncode.

My default AutoEncode setting is "no target size, use profile settings" yet AutoEncode produces the "First Pass Encoding is not supported" error when the x265 encoder is selected and configured for CRF encoding. When the x265 encoder is configured for constant quantizer encoding, using AutoEncode does not produce the same error.

[LigH]

:o Sorry for the confusion then, I must have remembered wrong.

[osgZach]

Will you guys ever add CRF values to the Zone creation window? It's so much easier to specify a CRF value for zones (in relation to the CRF value used for the encode) than having to play guess-work with a Quantizer or Percentage value.
It'll be a lot easier than juggling custom CRF zone flags on X number of different profiles when you are doing batches as well.

[hello_hello]

osgZach,
Can you work around it by using Trim() in a script and running individual encodes with different CRF values, then appending the encodes with MKVMergeGUI? I do, along with different filtering at time too.
I can't say I've used the Zones function much myself so I don't know how convenient a workaround it'd be compared to Zones having CRF values. If it's a silly suggestion, just ignore me. ;)

[osgZach]

Well, it would be a lot less steps.
All you do is specify your start and ending frame ranges for the zones, and during the encode x264 will adjust the CRF accordingly for them.

When opening this file, MeGui also recognizes the audio as
[1] - PCM - 2 channels - 48.0 KHz / German

I want to make an MKV with audio encoded as MP3.
I start the job as usual, in the first step MeGUI is muxing MKV, however I then get the error
------
MKA, 1 audio track, 0:58:21
1: RAW/PCM, 2.0 channels, 16 bits, 48kHz
The source file doesn't contain a track with the number 2. <ERROR>
Of course there is no track 2, but I also did not select a track 2 anywhere!
Or does it expect video track 1 and audio track 2? If I load the file into mkvmerge GUI, it also displays only one track, no separate audio.
How can I include the audio in my encode? It does work if I encode without audio, but it should also work with.

[osgZach]

A quick work around might be to load the video in the Audio encoding input box, and then see if you can save out the audio in your desired format that way.
Or you could try opening in Virtualdub and saving the audio that way as well.

And depending on what you have installed, you can sometimes right-click on a file and in the context menu, windows will offer an option to extract the audio track (I've done it with AVI's before)
