MeGUI MJpeg to Mp4 problem in One-Click mode.

[uciekamy]

Hello y'all.

I was using MeGUI to convert my Camera recordings (mjpeg MOVs) to mp4 but after some updates One-Click mode doesn't deal with it anymore.

It used to make 4 jobs in the queue: indexing, audio encode, video encode, and muxing. But now it makes: "mkvmerge mux", "mkvextract ext", "indexing", and "oneclick" job. And the first one doesn't even finish and reports error.

I don't know what changed, and how to get it back working.

It's still working fine in the manual process, but it takes too much time for me with several files i got to convert.

Appreciate any help.

Please upload the log and if possible a short sample file.

[Zathor]

What happens when you use the created MKV file as input instead of the MOV?

[uciekamy]

Don't have any to check. I use mp4.

But why does it use mkvmerge for mov files?

[Zathor]

Don't have any to check. I use mp4. Please use the created MKV from MeGUI:
D:\2012-11\ie20n33w.45y\MVI_2909.mkv

But why does it use mkvmerge for mov files? This way various files (mp4, avi, ...) can be demuxed resulting in stream copy or better video/audio encoding support. In your case MKVMerge seems to be able to handle this file but as a warning is shown MeGUI cannot proceed.

[uciekamy]

Ok then: it works fine with that file, but an encoded mp4 is corrupted - audio is chopped and unsynced..

How can I force it to do the process old way, without mkvmerge?

[Zathor]

Currently? Revert to an older MeGUI build.
I will add an option to disable intermediate MKV files in one of the next releases. As it is useful in general intermediate MKV files will be enabled by default.

[uciekamy]

OK so i'll hold up untill U do it. Can U post here when it's done?

[Zathor]

Please try this build:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/jal572ld033y3vh/MeGUI.zip

You can disable the intermediate MKV files in the OneClick profile settings (other tab).

Please report back.

[uciekamy]

Hahaaaaaaaaaa! Just found it myself at the moment and wanted to post it here! :D You added this option, or it was there all the time?

Thank a lot! Let the encode begiiiinnnn! ;D

[ditche]

Same bug, same solution, thank you :)
