x264vfw command line options

[movmasty]

I need the exaustive(all the options supported) cli setting to use in x264vfw, and specially in Komisar build.

Mainly i need to set and enable mbtree and rc-lookahead in this way

These are the cli option that could be set through Komisar x264 gui--crf 24.9 --ref 3 --trellis 1 --mixed-refs --deblock 1:0 --bframes 4 --direct auto --b-pyramid --b-rdo --weightb --bime --b-bias 0 --direct-8x8 -1 --me umh --subme 7 --merange 16 --mvrange -1 --mvrange-thread -1 --scenecut 50 --partitions i4x4,i8x8,p8x8,b8x8 --aq-mode 3 --aq-metric 2 --aq-strength 1.2 --psy-rd 1:0.15 --ratetol 0.5 --qcomp 0.4 --cplxblur 20 --qblur 0.5 --keyint 150 --min-keyint 5 --nr 0 --qpmin 18 --qpmax 38 --qpstep 7 --deadzone-inter 21 --deadzone-intra 10 --progress --threads 0 --thread-queue 0 --thread-input --cqmfile .\matrix.cfg --ipratio 2.4 --pbratio 1.33 --chroma-qp-offset 0 --vd-hack

TIA :thanks:

komisar last update is 2013-02-27, so.....

and i figured out how to use cli, just write the options that you need to change and komisar will fill with its default, mbtree enabled

[komisar]

--crf 24.9 --ref 3 --trellis 1 --mixed-refs --deblock 1:0 --bframes 4 --direct auto --b-pyramid 2 --weightb --b-bias 0 --me umh --subme 7 --merange 16 --mvrange -1 --mvrange-thread -1 --scenecut 50 --partitions i4x4,i8x8,p8x8,b8x8 --aq-mode 3 --aq-strength 1.2 --psy-rd 1:0.15 --ratetol 0.5 --qcomp 0.4 --cplxblur 20 --qblur 0.5 --keyint 150 --min-keyint 5 --nr 0 --qpmin 18 --qpmax 38 --qpstep 7 --deadzone-inter 21 --deadzone-intra 10 --ipratio 2.4 --pbratio 1.33 --chroma-qp-offset 0 --vd-hack --rc-lookahead 80 --mbtree
work fine for me in x264vfw (use "Use command line:" or "Extra options:")

--b-pyramid -- need argument i.e. "--b-pyramid 2"
--b-rdo unsupported
--bime unsupported
--direct-8x8 -1 unsupported
--aq-metric 2 unsupported
--progress unsupported
--thread-queue 0 unsupported
--thread-input unsupported

p.s. --mbtree/--no-mbtree work fine

FWIW, newer VfW builds can also be found here:

Thanks MyLoRd (just downloaded your LameXP)

And thanks in Anticipation Komisar, since a new update will be nice :D
(Glad to know that exist a --mbtree, still dont understand the --aq-mode 3 )


And now a shocking info!
Acutually im making Mp4, for the aac audio and to incude srt subs in the file....

BUT,
im encoding in avi with komisar, and then convert to mp4 :eek:
with Pazera free converter suite(and i reccomend it)

Still find all the mp4 encoders, buggy, little configurable and hard to use

"--aq-mode 3" correct option for x264vfw.r2273kMod

...and try to use "-o d:\MyCoolVideo\something.mp4" ;)

x264vfw.r2273kMod

I build only kMod VFW...
BugMaster build clear VFW...

[movmasty]

OK, then what --aq-mode 3 is???
dont tell me that
0=1
1=2
2=3
? :o

[komisar]

"--aq-mode 3" is "aq=3:x.yz"
--aq-mode <integer> AQ method [1]
- 0: Disabled
- 1: Variance AQ (complexity mask)
- 2: Auto-variance AQ
- 3: Auto-variance AQ with bias to dark scenes

[movmasty]

3: Auto-variance AQ with bias to dark scenes
OK many thanks, but this means that dark scenes get more or less bytes?

[poisondeathray]

OK many thanks, but this means that dark scenes get more or less bytes?

More

Usually filesize will be larger at a given CRF value

So if you're using --crf 25.9 expecting some rough ball park filesize, you will have to adjust it

[movmasty]

OK, thanks to all and forgive me for all this silly questions
