found errors:
Error1: in x264 config if to choose Tune, Animation, system gets very weird error - it says it can't find file which exists.

No problem here, work without problems. Check if there are filenames with non-standard characters, rename it to simple characters and try again.

Error2: SVT (AV1) codeck not working - causing fatal error

The last encoder not work for me, using the same avs to test the x264 encode:

[Kurt.noise]

8 bits sources encoding is broken with current svt-av1-psy windows builds. We have to convert input to 10bits or wait a bugfix.

You are right, but it is weird, without options it's working good = the same codeck

Using ConvertBits(10) in the .avs also crash:

Hello.
There is a problem in the last 2 releases.
When indexing a FFMSIndex video, after finishing, just a dark window appears, there is no picture.
L-SMASH everything is fine.

Holy sh.... :eek:

I've been using MeGUI since it came out and was very sad to see there was no real development in years.

And it almost took me a year to stumble upon this thread and notice Kurtnoise is back and working on my fav GUI again. :eek:

Boy, I'm so happy I could cry. :D :D :D

And you'll probably cry when you see my list of feature requests and fixes that are really needed. :devil:

Btw what happened to you old account ???

[Kurt.noise]

Any log please ?

[Kurt.noise]

Hi,
And you'll probably cry when you see my list of feature requests and fixes that are really needed. :devil:
Tell me :cool:

Btw what happened to you old account ???
I lost the mail account & password :o

[LeXXuz]

Hi,
I lost the mail account & password :o

That sucks after so many years :(


Tell me :cool:


Okay, you asked for it. :D But one at a time.

BUG(?):
There is visual bug with MeGUI on high resolution desktops for a long time now.

On Windows 10/11 with a screen with 4k resolution AND a scaling >100%, MeGUI's progress windows look like this:

https://i.ibb.co/VWn7GJN1/Screenshot-2025-02-16-165032.png (https://ibb.co/VWn7GJN1)

REQUEST:
Could you allow a zoom factor >100% for the preview window? FHD and especially SD content is tiny on a 4k screen. At the moment I usually enlarge the videos at the end of my script to see more detail in the preview window. However, I lost count of how many times I forgot to remove that last line and encoded an entire film with the wrong resolution. :o

Allowing a higher zoom of the preview would prevent that for lazy old bums like me. :D :o

[stimco]

https://ibb.co/wrW5KRcg

how I came out of the situation.
I took megui from earlier versions and replaced it.
everything works ok.

[stimco]

By the way, during updates, avisynth is updated 2 times.
and.. is it possible to immediately get mkv when encoding av1.
to see the result.

[nechto]

time of requests?
is it possible to add batch mode ? even I need to submit every file settings.
e.g. To choose not more than 10-15 file and for each of them settings window will appear. If possible to have an option to autosubmit, but this one I think will be enough for beginning. Unlimited number of files can crash - it is why 10-15 if possible. Now to convert my 1000 videos from mp4 to mkv with little loss I need to spend a lot of time (to queue all of them)

[VoodooFX]

is it possible to add batch mode ?

Batch encoding already exists -"One Click".

"standard error stream" here means the redirection of the output of the tool in order to catch up error messages and diagnostic information. Nothing to worry.

btw, did you move the progress bar in order to check out the preview ? Sometimes, the 1st frames are blanked. Thats why you see nothing.

By the way, during updates, avisynth is updated 2 times.
Maybe because the 1st time, downloading was corrupted or something.

and.. is it possible to immediately get mkv when encoding av1. to see the result.
Just choose mkv as output file extension.

I gave you an example with LSMASH.
everything is ok there.
the frame is the same.
the problem really exists.

Remove the content from the update_cache sub-folder and retry to download ffms and see whats happening.

Did you get also the issue using another source file ?

[stimco]

did... nothing changed.

LSMASH OK ... https://ibb.co/5WTq3HD2

[Kurt.noise]

Then stay with lsmash...or do you prefer ffms ? Its quite similar.

You did not tell me if issue occured also with another source.

[VoodooFX]

About that black preview, sometimes I get it too (with lsmash), usually hitting "Preview AVS script" button fixes it, or I restart indexing again to fix.

[LeXXuz]

I remember having this issue with ffms quite a while ago. That's what made me switch to DGIndexNV.

But anyhow, use the goto function and don't enter any new frame number, just hit ok. That restarts your script and usually fixed the black frame issue for me.

[stimco]

Then stay with lsmash...or do you prefer ffms ? Its quite similar.

You did not tell me if issue occured also with another source.

I don’t understand.. how it doesn’t work and to hell with it.
This is a problem with the last two versions. maybe you can fix it.

I like FFMS better. And I don't want to change that.

The log indicates that the source was different source.
Believe me, I checked it 20 times.

Maybe the creator of FFMS can fix this.

[Kurt.noise]

What can I say...I tested the same input as yours and that worked correctly on my side :

Indexing is done flawlessly and I'm able to create avs script from the AVS Creator. And btw, looking at your logfile, indexing is done correctly too.

So, your problem seems to be somewhere else...

Try the ffms from there (replace the content in ffms subfolder) : https://codeberg.org/StvG/ffms2/releases/download/r2390/ffms2_r2390.7z

[stimco]

Yes, the file is indexed, but there is no video in the window for trimming, the screen is dark.
I previously used MeGUI 6.6.6.6 - 20240823 there were no such problems. But now, even if you run this version, after installing the latest updates, a problem will appear here.
Below I’ll leave it as a working version without glitches. MeGUI 6.6.6.6 - 20240823 is the basis and is based on its old updates.

https://ru.files.fm/u/crfruwz2kt

[stimco]

I took MeGUI 6.6.6.6 - 20250210 .exe and placed it in the old version of MeGUI 6.6.6.6 - 20240823 and everything works. But if you download updates from the new version, then everything... does not work.

[LeXXuz]

BUG(?):

Nvidia Deinterlacer not selectable/not working in AVS script creator.
(Also not working in 1-Click Encoder for ages)

https://i.ibb.co/1wwtMtQ/Screenshot-2025-02-18-090840.png (https://ibb.co/1wwtMtQ)

Source is a clip from an SD interlaced source MPEG2 elementary stream, indexed with DGIndexNV.

what the dgi looks like ? iirc, this is enabled from the specific content of the file.

How you know when it is interlaced from the dgi file?

I have some samples with same dgi look than the LeXXuz dgi (..., 0% FILM, ORDER 1), some with "Partially interlaced" after the 'Analyse' but also with full "Interlaced" and the 'Nvidia deinterlaced' is always no selectable.

I include manually ", deinterlace=1" in DGSource line and work fine always.

[LeXXuz]

My guess is DG may have changed something in the syntax of the dgi files over the years, so MeGUI can't recognize it. That is if it only makes that option available when it finds a certain flag inside the file. Like I said, that option is broken for a very long time in MeGUI.

Anyhow, I think this wouldn't be a good approach at all. Index files could be flagged wrongly as progressive and still have the need for deinterlacing. I think the deinterlace option should be available at any time.

[tebasuna51]

...Index files could be flagged wrongly as progressive and still have the need for deinterlacing. I think the deinterlace option should be available at any time.

Also some flagged like interlaced (MBAFF) with 0 blocks interlaced than don't need deinterlace at all.

[stimco]

stop the fud.

you think that by being rude you will prove something.
There is a problem, but you don't give a fuck.

Yes, I think it's a good idea. Will do that.

No but I cannot reproduce your issue with the same input. So, what should I do then ? did you try what I suggested previously (replace the content with the other) ?

[Maxxr]

only happened with the new version, any solution, look image below:

[Kurt.noise]

Yes, this has been fixed already. Wait next release or just use another source filter.

Hi everyone, is it possible to remove the HDR from a 4K remux to create encodings without HD with vivid colors? With megui?

Its not an automatic task. You have to use a tonemapping filter into your avs script.

[King-Zeus78]

hi, thanks for your reply, where can I find this filter?

Then please explain to King-Zeus78 how use your method with MeGUI.

Found very weird bug in output. I generated file with FPS=23.976, but when I watching it it shows video at rate=50 fps. Audio is good. How to fix it ? I already erased the source. p.s. it was made by latest MeGUI.

[nechto]

BTW, we had already such type of issue - it was due to LSMASH error.
Now I need to understand how to fix (where in Video file to say that it is 23.976 fps video without video changing, because numbers of frames seems like this. on 50fps video is fast while audio is normal. And when video finishing audio still playing)

[tebasuna51]
