I've been using MeGUI for over a year now and I like it for the most part, but I wonder why it uses vfw4x264.exe (32 bit) along with x264_64 to encode. I thought that vfw264 was an old project that wasn't maintained anymore and lacks several features of the most recent x264 builds.
For what I can see in Task Manager, vfw4x264.exe takes up about 3 or 4 % of the CPU while x264_64.exe takes up about 95%, so the latter is obviously doing the hard work, and I suppose (somebody correct me if I'm wrong) that vfw4x264.exe helps to send the 32 bit Avisynth script into the 64 bit x264_64.exe, but will it keep all the options that I set in the advanced settings when it goes through vfw4x264.exe?
The other question is, even though the use of Avisynth is great when it comes to process the video with plugins and filters, why does MeGUI only relies on AVS scripts as the input, and doesn't take avis, mpegs, m2ts, etc directly, without having to launch the AVS script creator? When I export footage from the timeline I already did all the color correction and other filtering, so I don't need to anything else. It would be great to just be able to load the avi into MeGUI to make things faster. Just a thought.
