MeGUI 6.6.6.6 20260403 released

[Kurt.noise]

Hi,

I recently forked (https://github.com/Kurtnoise29/megui) the latest megui from there (https://sourceforge.net/p/megui/)and decided to update few things on it. Yeah, it's still alive more than 20+ years ago :D

As A/V encoders I plan to add svt-av1 and exhale.

I'll post here some builds if some people are interested.

Note that I use mainly x64 tools. So, don't expect some enhancements in the x86/32 bits world.

If you have some ideas or bugs to be fixed, please let me know.

The releases are available there : https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/releases

[Barough]

Please share some builds here or on your github page :)

[kalehrl]

Great news for MeGUI lovers!
Thank you.

[Kurt.noise]

Here you go,

https://github.com/Kurtnoise29/megui/releases/tag/6666.2203

Nothing really new from the latest beta official release except :

- Added time modification 23 <-> 24 for audio conversion (https://sourceforge.net/p/megui/feature-requests/690/).
- Allowed UTF8 encoding format as Reader/Writer for avisynth input files.

Provide only x64 builds.


Have fun.

[kalehrl]

Thank you.
Have you updated the tools to their latest versions?

[Kurt.noise]

Only MediaInfo and the required Avisynth Wrapper libraries. The rest can be replaced manually easily.

[tebasuna51]

Glad to read you Kurt, thank you for your effort to revive MeGUI.

I can make some test always with the development server versions:
Options -> Extended -> Use development update server
Tools -> Update -> Show all packages (enable and update all)

About last tools we can see https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1981982#post1981982
But we need test if work correctly with MeGUI.

Some questions about AviSynth:

1) To work with Avs+ remember the AviSynth Wrapper (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1913117#post1913117)

2) I work always with the installed, now AviSynthPlus r4067, but MeGUI must work at least with AviSynth+ v3.7.3 with many important improvements over 3.5.1.

3) Of course I recommend the last plugins versions of DGtools, ffms2, lsmash, ...

Also I recommend the lasts eac3to versions with improvements managing EAC3 audio very common now.

[Kurt.noise]

Thanks Tebasuna.

1/ Yes, the build uses the Avisynth wrapper you have linked. I forgot to mention it previously. It's included.
2/ Yes, Im using the latest Avisynth+ v3.7.3 official release without issues for the moment. Not tested anything else though.
3/ Yes, of course. It's better to use the latest tools available around there. Feel free to test them. But personally, I'm using my own compile tools without issues with the MeGUI I released.

Look there for the bugs -> https://sourceforge.net/p/megui/bugs

This is one of the bigger ones -> https://sourceforge.net/p/megui/bugs/990/

How can I reproduce this with so few informations ? Whats the input ? Whats the avs script ? Any log ?

[von Suppé]

Good to see MeGUI is still being worked on. Kudos @Kurt.noise :thanks:

[tebasuna51]

This is one of the bigger ones -> https://sourceforge.net/p/megui/bugs/990/

I can't reproduce the problem with MeGUI32,64 or 6666, using DGindex, ffms2 or Lsmash decoders. It is ok for me.

[VoodooFX]

I didn't encountered it, just seen this issue posted in a lot of places, maybe it was solved.

New fresh build available : https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/releases/latest

Thanks. Then we need download new 6666 versions from github instead with the MeGUI Updater tool.

BTW when I try to update dgindexnv-250 fails because try upload dgindexnv-250-231115-64-64.7z, maybe there are a extra "-64"

I cannot access to this server...so, I cannot check whats the real name of the package.

[Kurt.noise]

fyi, I just uploaded a fresh build for x86 plateform (not tested though). Some people seems to be interested by using it.

Same link as above.

If Zathor is MIA then maybe talk to Wilbert -> https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=185020

[Kurt.noise]

I will. Thanks for the tips.

[tormento]

What about having a proper and functioning update repository?

I keep MeGUI for its autoupdate feature but it's a long time that some tools are obsolete.

the current one is working...the problem is to have/find somebody who is capable of doing the upgrade regularly.

[tebasuna51]

Yes, the problem is check if all the new versions works fine with MeGUI.

Like I say before the last versions can be found here https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1981982#post1981982
Feel free to check it.
I can help with the audio management involved with last versions of:
avisynth, ffms2, lsmash, eac3to and audio encoders.

And there are some ones, not obsolete but discontinued and still usefull like:
avi-mux_gui-1.17.8.3
haali_2859
besplit-0.9b8
NeroAacEnc 1.5.4.0
pgcdemux_1.2.0.5
vsrip_1007

If the various licences allow it, a github repository perhaps would be more than enough. I know you can set different automations to mirror the last github builds but no idea how.

its because the demuxer is changed internally during decoding...

will fix issue about the downmix but do you have more information how to apply AvsChannelMask in avs script ?

[tebasuna51]

Talking of audio decode use always LWLibavAudioSource, only .m4a can take advantage (internal index and don't need .lwi) of use LSMASHAudioSource, and don't support some common raw audio like .eac3 and .aac

will fix issue about the downmix but do you have more information how to apply AvsChannelMask in avs script ?

In AviSynth.h (3.7.3) there are:
// V10.1
bool (VideoInfo::* IsChannelMaskKnown)() const;
void (VideoInfo::* SetChannelMask)(bool isChannelMaskKnown, unsigned int dwChannelMask);
unsigned int (VideoInfo::* GetChannelMask)() const;
// Unshifted channel mask constants like in WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE
// in AvsImageTypeFlags they are shifted by 4 bits
enum AvsChannelMask {
MASK_SPEAKER_FRONT_LEFT = 0x1,
MASK_SPEAKER_FRONT_RIGHT = 0x2,
MASK_SPEAKER_FRONT_CENTER = 0x4,
MASK_SPEAKER_LOW_FREQUENCY = 0x8,
MASK_SPEAKER_BACK_LEFT = 0x10,
MASK_SPEAKER_BACK_RIGHT = 0x20,
MASK_SPEAKER_FRONT_LEFT_OF_CENTER = 0x40,
MASK_SPEAKER_FRONT_RIGHT_OF_CENTER = 0x80,
MASK_SPEAKER_BACK_CENTER = 0x100,
MASK_SPEAKER_SIDE_LEFT = 0x200,
MASK_SPEAKER_SIDE_RIGHT = 0x400,
MASK_SPEAKER_TOP_CENTER = 0x800,
MASK_SPEAKER_TOP_FRONT_LEFT = 0x1000,
MASK_SPEAKER_TOP_FRONT_CENTER = 0x2000,
MASK_SPEAKER_TOP_FRONT_RIGHT = 0x4000,
MASK_SPEAKER_TOP_BACK_LEFT = 0x8000,
MASK_SPEAKER_TOP_BACK_CENTER = 0x10000,
MASK_SPEAKER_TOP_BACK_RIGHT = 0x20000,
// Bit mask locations used up for the above positions
MASK_SPEAKER_DEFINED = 0x0003FFFF,
// Bit mask locations reserved for future use
MASK_SPEAKER_RESERVED = 0x7FFC0000,
// Used to specify that any possible permutation of speaker configurations
// Due to lack of available bits this one is put differently into image_type
MASK_SPEAKER_ALL = 0x80000000
};

#define VARNAME_dwChannelMask "OPT_dwChannelMask" // Integer audio channel mask. See description of WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE for more info.

We can use IsChannelMaskKnown, if is unknow or invalid (0< mask <= MASK_SPEAKER_DEFINED) use the default for the AudioChannels and SetChannelMask.

With mask = GetChannelMask we can do the appropiate downmix, if required, and after modify the SetChannelMask

At end we must output the audio with WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE header. All audio encoders must accept that format, and even send error messages if the channel layout is not supported by the encoder.

[tebasuna51]

I see you have my last downmix functions:

...
8<=Audiochannels(last)?c71_c51(ConvertAudioToFloat(last)):last
...
# As AudioLimiter.dll is not available, SoftClipperFromAudX() cannot be used MESSAGE NOT NEEDED NOW
# 7.1 Channels L,R,C,LFE,BL,BR,SL,SR -> standard 5.1
function c71_c51(clip a)
{
front = GetChannel(a, 1, 2, 3, 4)
back = GetChannel(a, 5, 6)
side = GetChannel(a, 6, 7)
mix = MixAudio(back, side, 0.5, 0.5).SoxFilter("compand 0.0,0.0 -90,-84,-8,-2,-6,-1,-0,-0.1")
return MergeChannels(front, mix)
}
# 5.1.2 Channels L,R,C,LFE,SL,SR,TFL,TFR -> standard 5.1
function c512_c51(clip a)
{
front = GetChannel(a, 1, 2)
midch = GetChannel(a, 3, 4, 5, 6)
topfr = GetChannel(a, 7, 8)
mix = MixAudio(front, topfr, 0.5, 0.5).SoxFilter("compand 0.0,0.0 -90,-84,-8,-2,-6,-1,-0,-0.1")
return MergeChannels(mix, midch)
}

But we need check the maskchannel to use c71_c51 or c512_c51
I will make test about that.

By the moment we have other problem:
How pass the maskchannel to the encoders?

Using wavs with header WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE like input for ffmpeg the maskchannel is read and encoded correctly, but using MeGUI ffmpeg encode all with the default channelmask for the NumChannels.

In BeHappy we can send manually the MaskChannel and create the wav header in the procedure writeHeader (https://github.com/jones1913/BeHappy/blob/master/src/Encoder.cs) and work fine.
Now we need use the MaskChannel provided by Avs+ 3.7.3

How we can do that with MeGUI?

This is the same function as BeHappy...:)

Just for testing, I tried this kind of script in order to have an idea how to get the maskchannels values :
LoadPlugin("C:\Users\LionelDUCHATEAU\Downloads\megui_git\megui\bin\x64\Debug\tools\lsmash\LSMASHSource.dll")
LWLibavAudioSource("C:\Users\LionelDUCHATEAU\Downloads\AC3 Samples\8w3D.eac3", drc_scale=0)
AudioDubEx(BlankClip(length=Int(1000*AudioLengthF(last)/Audiorate(last)), width=720, height=720, fps=25), last)
m=IsChannelMaskKnown()
g=GetChannelMask()
s=SetChannelMask(true,g)

Info()
Subtitle(
\ "\nAudioLength = " + String(AudioLength)
\ + "\nAudioLengthS = '" + AudioLengthS + "'"
\ + "\nAudioLengthF = " + String(AudioLengthF)
\ + "\nAudioLengthLo= " + String(AudioLengthLo)
\ + "\nAudioLengthHi= " + String(AudioLengthHi)
\ + "\nIsChannelMaskKnown= " + String(m)
\ + "\nGetChannelMask= " + String(g)
\ + "\nSetChannelMask= " + String(s)
\ , font="courier", text_color=$ffffff, size=32, align=4, lsp=0)

but String(s) returns nothing here whereas it's available in Info()...probably because it's a void function. How to get the value returned from s in this case ?

[tebasuna51]

For what you need the String(s)?

I test that avs:
LWLibavAudioSource("C:\tmp\8w341.wav", drc_scale=0) #L,R,C,LFE,BL,BR,SL,SR
#LWLibavAudioSource("C:\tmp\8w3D.wav", drc_scale=0) #L,R,C,LFE,SL,SR,TFL,TFR
ConvertAudioToFloat()
g=GetChannelMask()
22031==g?c512_c51():last
1599==g?c71_c51():last
SetChannelMask("1551")
# 7.1 Channels L,R,C,LFE,BL,BR,SL,SR -> standard 5.1
function c71_c51(clip a)
{
front = GetChannel(a, 1, 2, 3, 4)
back = GetChannel(a, 5, 6)
side = GetChannel(a, 7, 8)
mix = MixAudio(back, side, 0.5, 0.5).SoxFilter("compand 0.0,0.0 -90,-84,-8,-2,-6,-1,-0,-0.1").ConvertAudioToFloat()
return MergeChannels(front, mix)
}
# 5.1.2 Channels L,R,C,LFE,SL,SR,TFL,TFR -> standard 5.1
function c512_c51(clip a)
{
front = GetChannel(a, 1, 2)
midch = GetChannel(a, 3, 4, 5, 6)
topfr = GetChannel(a, 7, 8)
mix = MixAudio(front, topfr, 0.5, 0.5).SoxFilter("compand 0.0,0.0 -90,-84,-8,-2,-6,-1,-0,-0.1").ConvertAudioToFloat()
return MergeChannels(mix, midch)
}
And work fine with the two sources making the correct downmix.

We need know the maskchannel value for the most common channels layouts:

[tebasuna51]

Of course we can't do in MeGUI, or BeHappy, all possible downmix but is good to know than AC3 and DTS (image) can have even more:
https://forum.doom9.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=14686&d=1427424323

Like you can see only the 7.1 A have a exact correlation with WAV channels FL FR FC LFE BL BR SL SR
But other with Ls-Rs (surround) can be decoded/recoded with BL-BR (back) or SL-SR (side) pairs.
Until 5.1 it is not important because the channel order in wav not change, but a downmix to stereo from 6.1 or 6.1(back) is different

[tormento]

How we can do that with MeGUI?
Where did you find that new version of BeHappy?

Repo build is way older.

[Shandra]

Just found the great News today, so a somewhat late "Thank you!" from me!
& a question (how could it be otherwise ?):
If I want to go with a clean install with the 64bit build, should I use just this unzipped structure and add everything else manually (folder struct/tools) - or is it safe to do a full install of the legacy build and after that is installed/updated its components (dev branche) to overwrite its content with the one from this package & where applicable to replace the content in megui\tools\<tool>\ with the corresponding/up2date 64bit counterparts?

the safest way would be to create a dedicated folder for this build and update the tools afterwards. Storage space is not an issue anymore nowadays.

I'm making some tests about multichannel audio encoders supported by MeGUI: flac, ffmpeg (ac3,eac3,m4a), NeroAacEnc (m4a), fdkaac (m4a), qaac (m4a), ogenc2, opusenc.
I encode aac always to .m4a because the raw aac with ADTS header is very limited, with mp4 container there are more options.

1) All of them support WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE header with the maskchannel set (some ones W64 or RF64 headers), and format samples (Supported/Not):
MeGUI encoders: WFE W64 RF64 24i 32i 32f
-------------- --- --- ---- --- --- ---
ffmpeg ac3,mp2,aac S S S S S S
fdkaac m4a S N S S S S
Flac S S S S - -
Lame S N N S S S
NeroAac S N N S S S
opus S N N S N S
Qaac S N S S S S
Vorbis ogg S N N S S S

For me the 32 int is useless and the 32 float have the same precission than 24 int. Then I recommend that line always in the avs script:

32==Audiobits(last)?ConvertAudioTo24bit(last):last

instead to 16bit like now. For what lose precission? The human ear can difference until 20 bit precission.

2) Only flac support all the maskchannels layouts included in my previous post.
That include the correct maskchannel in the MediaInfo of the encoded flac but also recover the exact wav file layout when decode.
In next test I will inform the behaviour of all encoders.

3) For the AviSynth decode I used always LWLibavAudioSource, the output for lossy formats is always 32 float samples, from flac or others lossless formats is the original precission.
Can be used also FFAudioSource or BSAudioSource but for lossless formats (flac, dtsma,...) output 32 int I don't know for what. One more reason to use the last ConvertAudioTo24bit.

[Emulgator]

Thank you for clearing that up, tebasuna51 !

[tebasuna51]

ffmpeg AC3/EAC3 encoder (of course tested out of MeGUI until it can output WFE to ffmpeg):

1) All channel layouts from 'stereo' to '5.1' work fine, only 'quad.1' have a problem: the LFE channel is missing (bug reported (https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/10971))

2) Inputs with pair BL-BR (quad, 5.0, 5.1) and with pair SL-SR (quad(side), 5.0(side), 5.1(side)) output the same AC3/EAC3 layout with SurroundLeft-SurroundRight pair.
When they are decoded both output always SL-SR pair.

3) All the rest of channel layouts from 6.0 to 5.1.2 are downmixed automatically, more or less correctly, to 5.0.
And all LFE channels are missing (also reported).

[tebasuna51]

The rest of encoders have diferent behaviour, sometimes show error or say nothing or for instance read the mask but ignore it like oggenc2:

WARNING: Unknown WAV surround channel mask: 165391
blindly mapping speakers using default SMPTE/ITU ordering.

Then only some channel layouts can be encoded safely:

Like we can see the qaac encoder have more options (and best quality for me)

[Kurt.noise]

Thanks for your tests Tebasuna. :goodpost:

You did them with wav as source, right ? because LWLibavAudioSource does not support some multichannel lossy format (7.1 eac3 for instance)

[tebasuna51]

LWLibavAudioSource can support 7.1 eac3 and work recoding them to flac with MeGUI 6666, but the channel mask is the default, the same for 8w341.eac3 and for 8w3D.eac3 (https://www.sendspace.com/file/mapj57).

Without recognize the channelmask detected by LWLibavAudioSource:

[Kurt.noise]

https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/releases/tag/6666.2604

Please, report any issues regarding audio transcoding in this release. Probably, that needs to be polished here and there. Enjoy.

[tebasuna51]

Sorry, but recoding the attached 4 ac3's, with different channel mask, output the same default channelmask.
Seems the WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE header is not sended to ffmpeg when do:
ffmpeg.exe -i - -y -acodec ac3 -ab 384k "4_3.1.ac3"

About flac encode:
[Information] [26/04/2024 17:47:36] Job command line: C:\Portablz\MeGUI_66\tools\flac\flac.exe --force --force-raw-format --endian=little --sign=signed -5 - -o "C:\tmp\8w3D.flac" --channels=8 --bps=24 --sample-rate=48000

If you use --force-raw-format for flac encode the channelmask is ignored, only pcm samples are sended.
That command line is used before than flac support --ignore-chunk-sizes parameter or w64/rf64 headers

Use: - --ignore-chunk-sizes --silent -o "X.flac"
Or better use w64/rf64 header to avoid some warnings of flac:

#### Encoder StdErr ####
INFO: Make sure you know what you're doing when using --ignore-chunk-sizes.
Improper use can cause flac to encode non-audio data as audio.
-: WARNING: 'data' chunk has non-zero size, using --ignore-chunk-sizes is probably a bad idea
-: INFO: hit EOF with --ignore-chunk-sizes, got 958464 samples

Tested with BeHappy and Flac 1.4.3 and work fine.

[Kurt.noise]

Hi,

Back from vacations...

Sorry, but recoding the attached 4 ac3's, with different channel mask, output the same default channelmask.

Which output format did you select ? which nb channels did you select as output ?

Will fix the remaining issues you've listed. Thanks again.

[tebasuna51]

Which output format did you select ? which nb channels did you select as output ?

Only AC3 to AC3 without modify nothing, to avoid problems on encoders.

When you modify the flac encode we can use also it, with the best performance preserving the channelmask.

[Kurt.noise]

Guys, lets try latest release : https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/releases/tag/6666.1405

[tebasuna51]

Thanks Kurt.

- Now the flac encodes preserve fine the channelmask with the simple command line, do you send W64/RF64 headers or check if size > 4 GB to add the parameter --ignore-chunk-sizes ?

- Direct ac3 encodes preserve also the channelmask but I have a doubt, recoding a 3.1 ac3 the relevant log lines show:

The output is correct, but for what you SetChannelMask("15") if it's already correct?:

# Detected Channel Mask: cm=15

I saved the precedent avs and I try encode it:

1) MediaInfo can't extract the ChannelLayout from an avs
2) # Detected Channel Mask: cm=3 can't be obtained from cm=GetChannelMask(last) it's "15"
3) Seems apply stereo default L R, I don't know for what with 4 channels
4) ffmpeg ignore that channelmask and apply the default for 4 channels 4.0 instead the correct 3.1

Seems you trust in MediaInfo and ignore the cm=GetChannelMask(last)
I think you must trust in cm=GetChannelMask(last) unless it is invalid.

[tebasuna51]

To know if a channelmask is valid for the Detected channels I can use:
cm = GetChannelMask(last)
nc = AudioChannels(last)
cm0 = cm
nc0 = 0 #AudioChannels
for (i=1, 18) {
nc0 = nc0 + cm0 % 2
cm0 = int(cm0 / 2)
}
if (nc0 != nc ) {
cm = Select(nc, 3, 4, 3, 7, 263, 55, 63, 319, 1599)
SetChannelMask(String(cm))
}

If it's invalid (nc0 != nc ) we select the default for the Detected channels

[Kurt.noise]

Right, I missed avs input part...I'll check out. It's stereo by default when nothing is found.

do you send W64/RF64 headers or check if size > 4 GB to add the parameter --ignore-chunk-sizes ?
w64 is sent but I didn't update the settings for 4+Gb size.

[edison]

The updater told:
Cannot use update server http://megui.org/auto/stable/. Reason: Update XML is invalid

How can I fix this problem?

[tebasuna51]

w64 is sent but I didn't update the settings for 4+Gb size.

If sent w64 header is OK, you not need check the size.

The updater told:
Cannot use update server http://megui.org/auto/stable/. Reason: Update XML is invalid

How can I fix this problem?

No problem here, BTW never use the stable server with MeGUI 6666, it have very old software versions. Also the development server need changes.

Help us checking the actual versions of software used from here:
https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1981982#post1981982

[tebasuna51]

About the software used by MeGUI here is a list of actual versions, and links to last versions.
In the folder ...\update_cache there are the actual versions, if you have troubles with a tool try replace it with last version (in ...\tools folders) and comment if work fine now.

[tebasuna51]

I'm not a expert about video AviSynth plugins but maybe someones are obsolete. I let to video experts suggest some changes.

About audio AviSynth plugins:

- BassAudio and NicAudio like decoders are obsolete, we have lsmash and ffms2 for audio/video decoders.
- Timestretch is a internal fuction of AviSynth 2.6 and is included with Avs+ releases, we don't need the external plugin.
- AudioLimiter don't have a 64 bit version but we can use instead the http://avisynth.nl/index.php/Soxfilter
Then only the SoxFilter v2.2 20240104 must be included for audio management.

[Kurt.noise]

I would pick up ffmpeg binaries from here (https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/)instead of https://github.com/BtbN/FFmpeg-Builds/releases

Libraries used in these builds are more updated than the ones from BtbN. No difference for megui though.

[tebasuna51]

No problem, is the other repository recommended in ffmpeg web. The essentials build is enough most the times.

[tormento]

I would pick up ffmpeg binaries from
Btbn releases shared ffmpeg too, while Gyan builds them on major release only. Plus Gyan release them once a week (almost) while Btbn releases almost everyday.

[Kurt.noise]

while Gyan builds them on major release only. .
nope...there are also the git master builds.

[tebasuna51]

Maybe we can try also x265 with AVS input: https://github.com/Patman86/x265-Mod-by-Patman/releases

[Kurt.noise]

this implies to modify the internal settings because currently the workflow uses avs4x26x + x265 binaries. But sure, why not...

[tebasuna51]

Yes I know, also with some versions ffmpeg to Y4M | x265

But more simple -> less errors, simple maintenance

[tormento]

nope...there are also the git master builds.


I am talking about shared builds.

[tormento]

Maybe we can try also x265 with AVS input: https://github.com/Patman86/x265-Mod-by-Patman/releases


Patman is a very good build.

[Zergrinch]

I'm having an issue with this release.

[Kurt.noise]

your avisynth+ is out of dated. Install the latest release : https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus/releases and dont use the portable version from the original megui.

The same for LSMash plugin : https://github.com/HomeOfAviSynthPlusEvolution/L-SMASH-Works/releases/

[Zergrinch]

Thank you for the links.

Is it possible to have the new version of Avisynth be portable in meGUI without need for installation? My meGUI folder lives in a Dropbox folder where I can access it on multiple machines, so it would be more convenient if installation were not required.

[tebasuna51]

I'm checking some Avs plugins. Some tips:

- UnDot.dll seems work, then is a 64 bits build but I don't know where download it.
in http://avisynth.nl/index.php/UnDot don't exist a link to the 64 bits version and say:
"RgTools is recommended as a modern replacement for Undot. RemoveGrain(mode=1) is identical to Undot()"

- leakkerneldeint.dll seems not work and in http://avisynth.nl/index.php/LeakKernelDeint there are only a 32 bits version. Check if works for you.

- Testing a VOB with DGIndex the script include automatically color correction but the avs crash like you can see in the image.

Download DGindexNV250. If no longer available online, take it from your repo.
Repack it as .7z, rename it to dgindexnv-250-231115-64-64.7z
Feed it into MeGUI's folder \update_cache.
MeGUI will find it, install it and know from there on its there.
If you happened to have packed the folder, not its contents (as I did), move the contents into
\MeGUI.x64\tools\dgindexnv\DGDecodeNV.dll
\MeGUI.x64\tools\dgindexnv\DGIndexNV.exe
or respectively
\MeGUI64\tools\dgindexnv\DGDecodeNV.dll
\MeGUI64\tools\dgindexnv\DGIndexNV.exe

Is it possible to have the new version of Avisynth be portable in meGUI without need for installation? .

In addition to what tebasuna51 said, there are some other places where the AviSynth.dll & DevIL.dll have to be replaced (e.g. meGUI rootfolder, /tools/ffmpeg) - just browse/search the meGUI folder for 'em and replace where needed.

If you put the new version of Avisynth in the MeGUI\tools\avs folder and the new plugins in MeGUI\tools\avs\plugins, MeGUI should replace the old dlls with the new versions when it first runs.
You should be able to confirm that by deleting them from all the other locations and running MeGUI. It may only replace them when it's configured to use it's own portable Avisynth. I can't remember.

Kurt.noise,

Would you know why MeGUI loses the plot when it comes to calculating resizing if it's running in Wine on Linux?
Actually if the aspect error shown is correct it's probably not the resizing calculation that's the problem as such, but it's the width and height being chosen in the GUI that's wrong. I checked MeGUI 2944 and it's resizing it quite nuts too, although it appears to resize to a slightly different nuttiness. I'm curious as to why that would happen though, if you have any idea....

Cheers.

If you put the new version of Avisynth in the MeGUI\tools\avs folder and the new plugins in MeGUI\tools\avs\plugins, MeGUI should replace the old dlls with the new versions when it first runs.On runtime MeGUI just loads the dlls from \MeGUI.x64\tools\avs if portable mode ("Always use the included AviSynth") is specified.
Fortunately it does not replace systemwide (installed) AviSynth. So you can have different Avisynth versions side by side.
I had that here for years, the most recent AviSynth version systemwide and within MeGUI its preferred old version.
Just yesterday I changed that and copied 3.7.3 test 14 r4066 into MeGUI64 and MeGUI.x64.
(Ah, and copied new AviSynth wrapper 6 over for old MeGUI 2944)
This way update window does not know about it, but it is loaded, the log window tells it.

With RipBot it is a different story.
As you assumed for MeGUI, it is Ripbot which on runtime installs (overwrites systemwide AviSynth installations with its preferred one)
and does not change that back on closing. So I let RipBot rest until I found a way to avoid that.

[edison]

If sent w64 header is OK, you not need check the size.



No problem here, BTW never use the stable server with MeGUI 6666, it have very old software versions. Also the development server need changes.

Help us checking the actual versions of software used from here:
https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1981982#post1981982

I am using the fresh MeGUI 6666(from:https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/releases), so there is nothing inside the update_cache folder.

MeGUI 6666 alway ask me to update, but it can not download anything.

---------------------------
MeGUI component(s) missing
---------------------------
MeGUI cannot find at least one required component. Without these components, MeGUI will not run properly (e.g. specific jobs cannot be started).

Do you want to search now online for updates?

I was only referring to MeGUI replacing the various copies of the Avisynth dlls scattered throughout it's own subfolders with whatever's in the "MeGUI\tools\avs" and "MeGUI\tools\avs\plugins" folders. I think when it's not in portable mode it deletes them all from it's sub-folders when it first runs (aside from the "MeGUI\tools\avs" and "MeGUI\tools\avs\plugins" folders of course), but that's just how I remember it as I haven't checked.

For a while I did the same thing.... the portable version of Avisynth MeGUI was using was different to the version I had installed. I think it was back when I was transitioning from AVisynth 2.6 to Avisynth+ as it was easy to tell MeGUI which one to use if a problem arose.

Maybe You are right & and I was to eager to give my encodes a "go" after replacing just tools/avs - but I am pretty sure that, even in old 32bit times, I had encountered some errors/abortions whence just replacing ./tools/avs and those failures where fixed by copy&paste of those dlls [edit: and I never had any external/global AVS install, always just the one provided within meGUI].

In fact I was thinking to symlink those external placements to the tools/avs dlls, now you leave me somewhat puzzled/flabberghasted with your post, because I am really pretty sure that not replacing those dlls myselfs lead to errors/abortions of the encodes.

[To add on it, how to you tell meGUI about the changes, because in my Installs - if I replace a tool with a newer version -, meGUIs internal versioning/update mechanism is stucked to that version which the update server offers & without it recognizing a version change, why should it copy&replace those dlls??? - It is just me and being curious, because my experience is in contradiction to yours :( (maybe you can elaborate further on this (and explain in detail (personal request, because I never managed it) how to tell meGUI what version a manual installed tool have) ... Argh, sorry I am at a lose here and really frustrated, because for me it always only worked in the last years/nearly a decade if I replaces those files whenever I updated avs from outside of meGUI)

Addendum: I apologize for this long post, but I am really, really frustrated by it - because if it should work without replacing those files by an external *upgrade* of a tool, why haven't it worked for me in all of those years past ??

Anything's possible. Maybe something odd happened.
I thought I'd check a few folders and MeGUI does delete Avisynth.dll and Devil.dll etc from it's various sub-folders when you tell it to use the "installed" Avisynth and restart it. I only checked the tools\ffmpeg and tools\x264 folders but MeGUI deleted them from those locations. When I told it to use the portable Avisynth again it copied them back from the tools/avs folder after it restarted.

I think it just copies the dlls from the tools\avs folder regardless of their versions. If you delete them from the tools\avs folder, MeGUI will no doubt notice they're missing and try to re-install them from the update cache, or by downloading them again, but it can only assume the version on the update server is the correct one.

Once Avisynth and the various plugins are downloaded and installed, the updater probably modifies the update.xml file (or AutoUpdate.xml, I'm not sure) and reports the versions listed there. As long as there's correctly named files in the expected locations MeGUI shouldn't know they've changed if you replace them with different versions.

Although Avisynth.dll is definitely an exception because MeGUI does query the Avisynth version to add it to the log file. Obviously the updater is oblivious to it being a different version though....

The portable Avisynth+ is correctly displayed as version 3.7.3 in the log file for my setup, even though the updater still thinks it's version 3.5.1.

Its because you've replaced the dll from the original portable version by the latest one

[Kurt.noise]

btw, good news, Wilbert gave me access to megui.org. I'll be able to update the tools from the server by myself.

I loaded a script into the script creator as the source video to check. The script's output is 960x540. When I enabled resizing the width in the GUI changed to 8 and the height changed to 3232.

So it would appear the answer is, yes, it does.

I get this error when running the updater, x86 version:
Error: Failed to download package mkvmerge: File cannot be found on the server.

I get this error when running the updater, x86 version:
This thread is about MeGUI 6666, only 64 bits.

Try here: MeGUI: General Questions and Troubleshooting Thread (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=105920)

But I think than nobody is working on it. You can try update the tools by yourself.

[SaurusX]

Just noticed these updates. Thanks for keeping MeGUI plugging long. I've been managing to work around MeGUI not using the latest AVISynth internally, so hopefully this makes that a non-issue.

if you have disabled internal avisynth portable from the settings that shoulnt be an issue :-)

sorry, my fault...should be ok now.

mkvmerge is ok now but x265 keeps asking to install whenever I start MeGUI.
I install it and when reopening MeGUI it wants to reinstall it again.
Component not found: D:\Programs\MeGUI\tools\x265\x64\x265.exe

nope...I just pushed some more recent tools. Nothing tested from my side on 32 bits and I wont be.

[kalehrl]

Nah, still loops with x265 update.
I install it, then when I start MeGUI again it wants to reinstall it and all over again.

[tebasuna51]

Like you can see in the image the new package don't have the x64 version and MeGUI_32 try to reinstall it.

If you really need use that MeGUI version download this package x265 (https://www.mediafire.com/file/p3zsun9oj3gcutu) and copy the x265.exe from the Win64 folder to your ...megui\tools\x265\x64 folder.

[tebasuna51]

@Kurt.noise
When I update my MeGUI_32 version I found than try reinstall also Mp4Box, the new package have the mp4fpsmod folder empty and the updater delete the previous content with nothing to replace it, and remain in reinstalling status.

The same happen updating the old MeGUI 64

[Barough]

@tebasuna51 - I have the same problem and with MeGUI.x64-6666

[tebasuna51]

Sure, but with MeGUI-6666 I do not use the updater, I replaced myself all the new version to test them.

For that I say this to Kurt, to modify the packages in the server.

[kalehrl]

I haven't switched to x64 MeGUI.
I still use 32bit and I have this problem on that version.

Hi,

I just released a fresh build (6666.1007) :



Introduced Exhale Audio encoder (https://gitlab.com/ecodis/exhale). An exec binary can be found here (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=2001725#post2001725) and must be placed into tools/exhale subfolder. A decent A/V player using the latest LAV filters should decode properly such files.
Added BestAudio avisynth support (https://github.com/vapoursynth/bestsource/releases). The library must be put into tools/bestsource subfolder.
Simplified audio transcoding channel mask use.
Updated MediaInfo library to the latest release.


https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/releases/latest

In few days, I will create a dedicated branch in the download tools server since new tools are incoming in this fork.


Enjoy

[Devilman1]

I just installed the latest version, but when I launch it I received the error that I don't have enough memory.
I have 32 Gbyte RAm and the SSD has still 440 Gbyte free.

I receive the same error even after restarting the laptop.

Bye

P.S.
I run Windows 11 and I have a Ryzen 9 processor and an RTX 3080Ti graphic card

[Devilman1]

New error

See attachment

[tebasuna51]

I just installed the latest version...
Installed?
The last version MeGUI 6666.1007 is a .zip file without installer, where do you extract that zip file in your file system?
I recommend here C:\Portable\MeGUI\

Do you have AviSynth+ already installed?

[Devilman1]

I extracted the zip file here:

C:\Audio & Video App\Megui-X64-6666

And Avisynth+ is already installed

[Kurt.noise]

Any logfile ? Did you have .NET Framework 4.8 runtimes installed ?

[tebasuna51]

Yep, search any log in C:\Audio & Video App\Megui-X64-6666\logs folder.

I run MeGUI in Windows 10, I don't know if can be a problem related to Windows 11.

Well, this is used with HD Streams Extractor in order to extract video streams as mkv. Seemas eac3to still uses it to demux as mkv. If I remove this, I would need to remove mkv output...

Hi Kurt.

how about adding x265
Encoder settings/Config/Enable 10-Bits Encoding/ tickbox (as in x264 config).

I think can enter something like "output-depth 10" [EDIT: or is it "output-depth=10"] in x265/Encoder settings/Config/Misc/Custom Command Line/
but nicer to have it flagged/ticked (and config saved) in main config window.

Tanks :)

EDIT: Looking forward to AV1 Video Encoder debut.

Hi,

A new fresh build has been released :

- Introduced svt-av1-psy Video Encoder (https://github.com/gianni-rosato/svt-av1-psy)
- Added FFV1 Video Encoder (https://ffmpeg.org/)
- Switched update development tools server to the fork one - mainly x64 binaries in there at this time.
- Added 10bits encoding setting for x265
- Fixed WAV_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE for multichannel sources for FLAC transcodings.



Enjoy.

[tebasuna51]

Thanks Kurt, I'll test it.

I have this error and i don't know how to resolve:

https://thumbs4.imagebam.com/fa/db/6c/MEVGM9W_t.png (https://www.imagebam.com/view/MEVGM9W)

It happens both when trying to make the index file (with FFMSIndex or L-SMASH Works) and if I load an avs script (without filters of any kind).
I use Avisynth AviSynthPlus_3.7.3_20230715, windows 11 pro, AvsPmod_v2.7.7.8, VisualCppRedist_AIO_x86_x64.
I had no problems with the MeGui.x64-6666.1007 version. I only rip to x264.

Can anyone help me?
Thanks

[Kurt.noise]

LWlibavVideoSource() from lsmash-works can't be used to open avs scripts. Did you have both bborders.avsi & bbmodY.avsi in your plugins avisynth folder ? Did you really need that ? Also, retry with a short name.

Thanks for you help.


The procedure I use to make the index file to create the avi script is: Megui - Tools - File indexer - Inpunt file - FFMSIndex or L-Smash.
I removed bborders.avsi and bbmodY.avsi , which I was using anyway, the result is this (with the short name):
https://thumbs4.imagebam.com/d1/c5/3c/MEVGQHO_t.png (https://www.imagebam.com/view/MEVGQHO)

The same crash is created if, by recalling a previously created avs script, I try to launch the encode and the same window appears.
In my opinion there is a problem with the latest version of MeGUi. If I try to install the old ones it updates and I'm all over again.

[Kurt.noise]

How would I know ? :logfile:

Does MeGUI autoload all plugins from \tools\avisynth_plugin?
I'm using the included avisynth+

[Kurt.noise]

Does MeGUI autoloads all plugins from \tools\avisynth_plugin?
I'm using the included avisynth+
normally, yes...except bestsource for Audio decoding.

[kalehrl]

When you switch from stable to development server and restart, you will get an update notification to downgrade tools.
Switching back to stable will not fix the issue.
So, once you change the server, you will always get annoying downgrade notification.

[Kurt.noise]

yes, I'm looking at it. Anyway, I think I will drop definitively the "stable" server from my fork for easier maintenance.

Does MeGUI pay any attention to the new eac3to ini file? It's just that for version 1405 I thought it might have changed what MeGUI was doing. I'm sure at some point the HD Streams Extractor section in the log still contained the warning but -keepDialnorm wasn't in the command line. I was probably confused....
I was trying to find out why eac3to no longer fixes audio gaps (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=185750) so I changed MeGUI and eac3to versions a couple of times.

Thanks.

[Kurt.noise]

Does MeGUI pay any attention to the new eac3to ini file?
nope...

[tebasuna51]

Following are highlights from the log file created by MeGUI when using the HD Streams Extractor (MeGUI 6666.2308 and eac3to 3.352).
Maybe 3.52

Does MeGUI pay any attention to the new eac3to ini file?
Like Kurt say "nope..." and show warnings for "Unknown line...", but eac3to yes.

BTW check your eac3to.ini file like I say you in eac3to no longer fixes audio gaps (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=185750)

Can you upload your sample file? to make test by command line (out of HDStreamsExtractor) to confirm the behaviour.

Or execute in command line, and put the log:

"C:\Program Files\MeGUI\tools\eac3to\eac3to.exe" "M:\NVME1\gap.mkv" 2:"M:\NVME2\gap_T2_Audio - English.aac"

[hello_hello]

Yes I made a boo boo as I meant version 3.52.

If only I'd read your post 10 minutes earlier.... I thought it'd be easy to make another sample until eac3to 3.36 decided to ignore the gap too. There must be a minimum size or duration before it's interested as the first couple of samples I made were only about 30 seconds long.

As you can see for these two, foobar2000 is able to pretend there's no gap and report different audio durations for each, but it's the same audio. I split the sample in half, delayed the audio in the second half by 1500ms, then put the two halves back together. If you extract the AAC from 1500ms.mkv without accounting for the gap, when you stick the AAC into a container again foobar2000 will display 01:16.800 as the duration instead of 01:18.300.

Naturally 1500ms.mkv will lose A/V sync about half way through.

I tried appending the delayed section to the end of the original MKV to see if maybe a longer duration would make a difference, but according to the log file eac3to 3.52 noticed the gaps but didn't fix them. I deleted the eac3to ini file first.

Not related at all with MeGUI or HDStreamsExtractor, is a eac3to problem present from v3.40.

Kurt.noise: Thank you for your MeGUI 6666 work :) . A couple questions:

1) I was able to simply copy-paste my standard MeGUI's x264 and QAAC profiles to their corresponding folders in your version without issue, but copying-pasting my AviSynth profiles results in the error message "The file could not be loaded: 'PATH... .xml' It will be moved to the backup directory: 'PATH...' for each individual profile when I start MeGUI 6666. Any idea why?

2) All attempts to downmix audio results in MeGUI 6666 crashing, regardless of the "Preferred Decoder" selected.

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

Any idea why?
maybe you have some dlls path in your avisynth profiles that need to be changed. What do they look like ?

2) All attempts to downmix audio results in MeGUI 6666 crashing, regardless of the "Preferred Decoder" selected.
Any log would be great...

[LouieChuckyMerry]

Thanks for your patience.

Seems crash when try to open the DTS with LWLibavAudioSource().

No problem here opening, downmix and recode a big (> 5GB) DTS XLL with LWLibavAudioSource() 231117 version.

[LouieChuckyMerry]

It works fine in my standard MeGUI (2944 x64), but not Kurt.noise's MeGUI (6666.2308 x64). All relevant packages are enabled and updated, but it still crashes (with the same log).

[hello_hello]

Thanks for your patience.

1) No .dll paths in any of my presets. Here's a typical example:

SetFilterMTMode("DEFAULT_MT_MODE", MT_MULTI_INSTANCE)

Instead of doing that, try loading this file (as an avsi file it can be put in the auto-loading plugins folder if you have Avisynth+ installed to save having to import it in every script).

https://publishwith.me/ep/pad/view/ro.rDkwcdWn4k9/latest

SetFilterMTMode is ignored by plugins that register their MT mode automatically, so if you want to over-ride a particular mode for a plugin in your script, it's a good idea to use the "force" option. For example:

SetFilterMTMode("TEMmod", MT_MULTI_INSTANCE, force=true)

If you load the script I linked to though, you shouldn't have to worry about using SetFilterMTMode. You only need to add Prefetch() to the end of your scripts.

[jrissole]

I am experiencing a bug with AvisynthWrapper.dll v3000. I am not sure if the problem is with AvisynthWrapper or the way MeGUI is using it. The MeGUI video preview window locks the video file that the AVS script is using. If you close the window the file lock is released but if a new script is previewed without closing the window the lock on the old file is not released. When the preview window is closed only the lock on the last file will be released.

The problem occurs with both MeGUI 6666.2308 and standard MeGUI (2944 x64). It doesn't occur with AvisynthWrapper.dll v2847.

Thanks, hello_hello, for another trick :) .

[VoodooFX]

Just installed it to try, Audio encoding doesn't work - it crash.
Input format/decoder/encoder doesn't matter, everything just crash, same log as LouieChuckyMerry's.



3) Any suggestion for a custom server address so that the updater doesn't want to revert to original MeGUI?

Yeah, it wants to downgrade everything.

[VoodooFX]

Found the problem with crashes, "MeGUI libs" auto-update overwrites AvisynthWrapper.dll with outdated one.

Btw, versioning is confusing, "6666.2308" is greater than "6666.2604"...

[Emulgator]

Btw, versioning is confusing, "6666.2308" is greater than "6666.2604"...
Second that, not to hassle Kurt.noise, but for anyone generating filenames:
Visual sorting of larger repositories only works out quickly if one adheres to certain naming conventions, like YYYY MM DD...

Update your L-SMASH Works to 231117 version.
Here work fine:
LWLibavAudioSource("C:\tmp\8w341.eac3", drc_scale=0)

[VoodooFX]

Update your L-SMASH Works to 231117 version.
Here work fine:

"231117" is r1156.

I looked at the source code, it can't work "fine" as "drc_scale" was actually removed from r1156. https://github.com/HomeOfAviSynthPlusEvolution/L-SMASH-Works/commit/eb4c88a8002d7e3efb30391326532e83469beaa8

Btw, it's added back since r1160.

[tebasuna51]

"231117" is r1156.

You are right, I really have 20240408 1194.0.0.0 (https://github.com/HomeOfAviSynthPlusEvolution/L-SMASH-Works/releases) in my system after some changes related to my report (https://github.com/HomeOfAviSynthPlusEvolution/L-SMASH-Works/issues/63)

Update to "6666.2308".


---[Information] AviSynth Wrapper
----[Information] Version: 1.0.2847.0


This is outdated too, it will be updated with "6666.2308".
Switch the update server to "Development' and update all plugins, except those bugged ones (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=2008598#post2008598) and "MeGUI libs".

[Shuichiyagami]

I got an error like this.
An error occurred: Script error: There is no function named 'GetChannelMask'.
And i already installed AviSynthPlus_3.7.2

To work with MeGUI 6666 you need at least AviSynthPlus_3.7.3

Options -> Extended -> Use custom update server
Tools -> Update -> all (included AviSynthPlus_3.7.3)
Options -> Main -> Always use the included AviSynth

Or install in your system AviSynthPlus_3.7.3

[VoodooFX]

And i already installed AviSynthPlus_3.7.2

If you installed it and want to use external Avisynth then in the options deselect "Always use the included AviSynth" box.



Options -> Extended -> Use custom update server


Are you sure about that?
Because it gives this error:

https://i.imgur.com/AJ1hx6c.png

If someone selected custom there and MeGUI doesn't start anymore then open "settings.xml" and change " <AutoUpdateServerSubList>2</AutoUpdateServerSubList>" to 1.

[Maxxr]

Update to "6666.2308".



This is outdated too, it will be updated with "6666.2308".
Switch the update server to "Development' and update all plugins, except those bugged ones (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=2008598#post2008598) and "MeGUI libs".

that version is not working for me, when I install and update everything, when I try to encode just close automatically

[VoodooFX]

that version is not working for me, when I install and update everything, when I try to encode just close automatically

Post the log.

[Shuichiyagami]

If you installed it and want to use external Avisynth then in the options deselect "Always use the included AviSynth" box.

Yes, i am using External Filter. For video encoding it's work now,
but for audio encoding by use QAAC i still get an error like
"An error occurred: Script error: There is no function named 'GetChannelMask'."
After i try again with another audio encoding i keep geting that error,
so i assume my problem is the audio encoding. Here my new log.

"An error occurred: Script error: There is no function named 'GetChannelMask'."
After i try again with another audio encoding i keep geting that error,
so i assume my problem is the audio encoding.

Like I say previously to work with audio conversions in MeGUI 6666.2308 you need at least AviSynth+ 3.7.3 (https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus/releases), with 3.7.2 does not exist the function GetChannelMask.

[tebasuna51]

Are you sure about that?
Because it gives this error:

https://i.imgur.com/AJ1hx6c.png

Work fine here, but seems there are something wrong in the Updater system.

I read that message at a moment with 3 options in the updater server, I redownload the last MeGUI 6666 version and I have 2 options only like the image.

With the development update server I get old versions (like Avs+ 3.5.1, MeGUI 2944, etc.)
With the custom update server I get new versions like L-SMASH Works 1994, but still MeGUI 2944, and missing exhale, BestSource and svtav1psy already download in the past.

[tebasuna51]

With the old MeGUI 2944 64b I have 3 options (stable, development, custom), all work without the error message, here in the settings.xml I have:
<AutoUpdateServerLists>
<ArrayOfString>
<string>Stable</string>
<string>http://megui.org/auto/stable/</string>
</ArrayOfString>
<ArrayOfString>
<string>Development</string>
<string>http://megui.org/auto/</string>
</ArrayOfString>
<ArrayOfString>
<string>Custom</string>
</ArrayOfString>
</AutoUpdateServerLists>

Like you can see the Custom option don't have any different server and the previous used one is the download server, then is a usseless option.
The first one is the stable and old versions, the second one is the development and updated versions

In MeGUI 6666 seems the first one (development) go to /auto/stable old versions server, and the second (custom) go to the /auto new versions server.

[VoodooFX]

...seems there are something wrong in the Updater system...

There is definitely something very wrong with it, I checked my current "MeGUI.exe" with the one from "MeGUI-6666.2308_x64.zip" [same package I've installed] from GitHub and both are different despite them both stating "6666.2308 x64", so I think it updated itself from the server with this different exe [its modification date is one day older].

Here is some weirdness: Fresh "MeGUI-6666.2308_x64" start > it asks to update > press yes > it hangs with "Update already in progress - please wait" > close MeGUI > but MeGUI is still running > you need to kill it in the task manager > start MeGUI again and now it updates normally. [maybe something to do with Firewall, I've to press a button to allow MeGUI.exe]

But sometimes it doesn't stuck...

When I was repeating this fresh MeGUI start to see a pattern I encountered weird bug when MeGUI was closing/starting itself like 10 times per second nonstop till I killed it. :D

Need to wait for Kurt to solve this madness...

[Shuichiyagami]

Like I say previously to work with audio conversions in MeGUI 6666.2308 you need at least AviSynth+ 3.7.3 (https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus/releases), with 3.7.2 does not exist the function GetChannelMask.
Ah, yes. It's working now after use 3.7.3.Thank you~

Microsoft antivirus found virus inside the update file!

Microsoft antivirus found virus inside the update file!:sly:

[Kurt.noise]

Microsoft antivirus found virus inside the update file!:sly:
you're smell like a bot to me...any proof of that ?

you think I'm playing to include some viruses or something like that in there ? *sigh*

it's due to the versioning number of course :devil: the sources are freely available idiot.

[zezinho]

I'm not saying that you put the virus in, I'm just saying that Microsoft's antivirus detected it.
It could be that the antivirus interprets some file as a virus.

[kalehrl]

Well, in my case there was no such detection.

[Kurt.noise]

Maybe its related to the latest 7-zip vunerabilities found out since I'm using that to create packages.

[VoodooFX]

Are those update issues fixed?

[Kurt.noise]

Are those update issues fixed?
yes, it's better now

[StainlessS]

I'm not saying that you put the virus in, I'm just saying that Microsoft's antivirus detected it.
It could be that the antivirus interprets some file as a virus.

On VirusTotal (64bit MeGUI) 1/68 (AliCloud) detected as malware:- https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/e7849bc1e117193631e7102fc3a308907f1bd39305f1b3b0b73be588fd09f085
On VirusTotal (32bit MeGUI) 2/66 (AliCloud/MaxSecure) detected as malware:- https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/15cd83b39437356c51511d8403f3f59a918719c93c7fe3e8c0d1cb5cb9a0f28c

So at least 64 out of 66 AV's all thought things are tickety-boo (OK).
[EDIT: Microsoft AV did not detect on either bittage zip]

Nothing to worry about.

Thanks for the new upload Kurt. :)

EDIT: I once had a detect on a Visual Basic program which I wrote, where there was a 7x7 grid of GUI buttons
for 47 balls (old UK Lottery balls format), and had bad detect on those, I just changed the draw ordering of the balls
and no more detect. Anti-Malware 'guesses' are far from perfect.
[EDIT: I believe that the array of buttons with slightly changing coords were being perceived as some kind of software mutation device, ie self changing code, and that spooked an AV detector]

For a broader picture than your single AV provides, you can upload suspect files to VirusTotal here:- https://www.virustotal.com/gui/home/upload

[Emulgator]

MeGUI can not do anything about it, 1920x1080@60fps is not BD-legal.
You got to take care of your script that it delivers BD-legal framerates.
Mediainfo of source would help.

[Kurt.noise]

The double 0 at beginning of timecodes looks a bit suspect to me. (but what do I know :( )
I would delete one of them and retry.

However, what Emulgator said would still apply.

[javieracdc]

Mediainfo of source would help.

But MeGUi should reencode the video to compliant Blu ray, no? this is the reason

your issue here seems to be that your input is vfr, not the fact to transcode it to be BD compliant.

Could you share the file somewhere ? I'll see what can I do.

VFR from 59.465 to 12 000.000 fps... well.
Could be from a mobile phone ?

I just record a video with Iphone with variable frame rate

https://we.tl/t-UqtkUzspAR

[Emulgator]

I was almost betting on a recent Apple iphone.
To reencode that source for BD I would just Assumefps("ntsc_double") and stretch Audio a bit by 1.001,
1280x720x59.94p would be BD-legal
To reencode that source for UHD-BD I would just Assumefps(60.0)
1980x1080x60p would be UHD-BD legal, 3840x2160x60p would be UHD-BD legal

and how convert to 1980x1080x60p that video for UHD compliant

[Emulgator]

The x265 target device preset has to be modified. Make your own.

x264 for FHD on UHD-BD: (not your use case with 60p source, but for reference)
If 8bit are desired then AVC, SDR only. No 8 bit HEVC (at least it is not mentioned in Whitepaper) !
If 8bit are desired then FHD only 1920x1080
If 8bit are used, then AVC, SDR only, then FHD 1920x1080 only, and only the 2 following film framerates are possible: 23.976p,24.000p.
(I guess this was meant to accommodate re-using BD assets for UHD-BD Disc Extras)
No 25,29.97,30,50,29.94,60p ! No interlaced !
--level 4.1 --bluray-compat --preset veryslow --tune film --crf 17 --keyint 24 --open-gop --slices 4 --qpmax 48 --ipratio 1.2 --pbratio 1.1 --vbv-bufsize 30000 --vbv-maxrate 40000

x265 for UHD on UHD-BD:
If 10bit are desired then HEVC only, no AVC !
If 10bit are used, then possible: UHD 3840x2160, FHD 1920x1080
If 10bit are used, then possible: SDR (BT.709), SDR (BT.2020), BDMV HDR (BT.2020 / ST 2084)
If 10bit are used, in UHD and FHD the following framerates are possible:23.976p,24.000p,25.000p,50.000p,59.940p,60.000p.
No 30.000p ! No interlaced !
GOP size = Ceil(framerate)
A more recent UHD-BD commandline for x265 can be found somewhere in the x265 threads,
searching and understanding would be on your side.

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

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

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]

[Kurt.noise]

Hi,

Tell me :cool:

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]

Any log please ?

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".

https://i.ibb.co/VWn7GJN1/Screenshot-2025-02-16-165032.png (https://ibb.co/VWn7GJN1)
ok, I'll check it out

[QUOTE=LeXXuz;2014914]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
ok, done

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

"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.

[Kurt.noise]

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.

[tebasuna51]

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]

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

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:

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

[Kurt.noise]

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]

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

[nechto]

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.
Format : Matroska
Format version : Version 4
File size : 18.6 MiB
Duration : 4 min 28 s

Writing library : libebml v1.4.5 + libmatroska v1.7.1

[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]

We can't help you without the full log, check in subfolder MeGUI66\logs...

[nechto]

tebasuna51, problem is not in MeGUI, but in his result. It works perfectly. Which logs you need ?
btw, I found fast solution, using MKVToolNix

[nechto]

I found it, will share shortly

[tebasuna51]

The problem is in the source file (or MediaInfo reading it) because if the source is:

--[Information] [16.03.2025 23:16:16] frame rate: 50/1
--[Information] [16.03.2025 23:16:16] frames: 360
--[Information] [16.03.2025 23:16:16] length: 00:00:07.200

Check your source file, do you download it?
We can't help you with downloaded files.

MeGUI and LSMASHSource.dll work fine with the video output fps 50/1
If you mux the output video with audio:

----[Information] Format: AC-3
----[Information] PlayTime: 00:00:14.400

we have the async problem. Your solution is correct.

[VoodooFX]

Found very weird bug in output. I generated file with FPS=23.976...
Video file to say that it is 23.976 fps...

What is much more weirder is that you are converting it to 25 FPS instead of "23.976"... :D

Anyway, the issue is because the input has fake interlace. (GitHub link to the issue (https://github.com/HomeOfAviSynthPlusEvolution/L-SMASH-Works/issues/90))


Now I need to understand how to fix...

Add AssumeFPS(25) to avs script.
Or if you already encoded it use MKVToolNix to correct FPS. [same as in your screenshot]

[nechto]

Tebasuna, no it was not downloaded file, it was Canon recorded .MTS file (pure MPEG1) as a source.
VoodooFX, you are right, source was 25 fps. Thanks for another way to fix, but it will be used by other people don't know the details. All they can do, it doubleclick on file. And source already deleted.

Seems the issue is LSMASH, which is putting 50 instead of 25 for files, I found this only for files which have cyrillic chars in name (not all the times).

[pilgrim365]

Firstly, thank you for breathing life into this wonderful program. I've still been using the legacy version until I randomly came across your version a couple of days ago.

Went to put it to the test but I cannot seem to encode any audio. No matter what encoder I use (NeroAAC, Exhale, QAAC etc..) they all result with the same error. Even tried several decoders two to rule that out but still, same exact error.

Any ideas?

[EDIT] Attachement not needed with the log in the next post

[Kurt.noise]

Post the whole log file instead (the last one in jobs subfolder)

[pilgrim365]

18920

Here you go!

Edit: Actually nevermind, the only variable I hadn't considered was my input. Turns out there's was just an issue with that specific audio file I was using, tried another input and worked as expected. Sorry to bother.

[tebasuna51]

Your log show a error in line 17 of the avs script, this one:

mix = mix.SoxFilter(""compand 0.1,0.1 -90,-84,-16,-10,-0.1,-3 0.0 -90 0.0"").ConvertAudioToFloat()

Do you edit the log or the avs?
Because my MeGUI version make other line like:

mix = MixAudio(back, side, 0.5, 0.5).SoxFilter("compand 0.0,0.0 -90,-84,-8,-2,-6,-1,-0,-0.1")

and work without problems.

[pilgrim365]

I made no changes. I actually then found trying to encode on the legacy MeGUI also had issues. Interestingly didn't spit out an error, but encoding just wouldn't start with the timer increasing indefinitely.

[Kurt.noise]

This has been fixed (https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/issues/30) as well. That should be available soon.

[Barough]

Getting this when trying to update

"Cannot use update server http://megui.org/auto/fork/. Reason: Update XML is invalid"

[Kurt.noise]

It works for me. Maybe retry later.

[Barough]

Now it works for me again. Didn't work for like almost 2 days here

Hello.
I cant add more than 1 Audio track in "One Click". When i click "+" another track appears for a split second, but then immediately disappears.

Maybe because you have the "use only the first audio track" checked in your onclick profile (in Audio tab).

I have new AvySynth+ 3.7.5 reinstalling till the end of the times. How to fix this ?

Maybe because you have the "use only the first audio track" checked in your onclick profile (in Audio tab).

I'm not sitting because I'm using the default FFmpeg AC-3 profile and I don't see the options you're writing about there, but another "unhandled" error appears when we click "-" with one audio track, then an application error appears (all without a loaded file for processing.

Some error in eac3to - trying to extract not existing stream?

[tebasuna51]

Can't reproduce your problem:

- From a mkv with only 2 traks:
MKV, 1 video track, 1 audio track, 0:03:21, 30p/1.001
1: h264/AVC, 1080p30/1.001
2: RAW/PCM, 2.0 channels, 16 bits, 48kHz, dialnorm: 0dB

Make a command line: eac3to "eac3to.exe" "...DSC_0115.mkv" 3:"...English.wav"
---The source file doesn't contain a track with the number 3.

My MeGUI66 create a correct one with 2:"output.wav" when the source is equivalent (one video + one audio tracks)

[nechto]

But in some cases it seems using number 3 from 2 ... I can send if you want the file - try it

For me not. Did you tried to use the same options to recode ?
I am not using HD treams extractor - I am simply open file to recode. X265. Ac-3, always recode

[tebasuna51]

Sorry, I never use the One Click Encode. I can't help you with that.

To do automatic recode I use something like:

ffmpeg -i "DSC_0115.MOV" -map 0:v:0 -vf scale=1280:720 -c:v libx265 -map 0:a:0 -c:a ac3 "DSC_0115.mkv"

Another one comment (which possibly worth to mention ):
too long path can crush the MeGUI. Really crush - it is closing without action. Path = Directory name and file name.
Also better to not to use local chars (like ё, й, etc). With latest l-smash it is not a problem, but 2 days ago I caught such bug with Hawaian char..


p.s. Also I catch very weird bug - I have Russian (double) as default language, but when I am trying to recode, it is always choosing English as default language.

You are right, when there are many software involved, long text and non-standard chars can produce crash without know for what.
It is always recommended use short names (old DOS style 8.3) and rename at end of conversion.

[LeXXuz]

Any news on the display problem with 4k resolution and Windows zoom >100%?

Also there is an annoying bug in the file indexer mask. If you want to enqueue more than one indexing job, the output path is not updated. Which means any indexing output file will be written to the output path of the first job.

Right now you have to close the file indexer an reopen it to make sure every index job you create will use the correct path for file output.

Also on two of my systems DGIndexNV is gone in the file indexer for selection. DGIndexNV IS enabled in the settings however.

I already copied the entire Megui directory from a system where DGIndexNV is shown and working just fine. But no use. So I was wondering if MeGUI stores settings somewhere in the Registry or personal folders which I've missed? Really have no idea how to make this work again.

[Kurt.noise]

Its preferable for me to track down all issues in the github entry (https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/issues)

Yeah, not so easy to find the root cause here...will try to reproduce with the same input.

[StainlessS]

I'm in process of setting up Avs+, and MeGUI, not used either for quite a time.
In MeGUI 6.6.6.6.20250210
when loading pre-prepared avs file, and clicking on "Audio Encoding, 'Queue'" button, it auto starts to encode the audio
without me "switching to the Queue TAB, and clicking Start".
Is this now normal behaviour ? {Or is there some auto start audio encode type setting that needs switching off ?}

thanx.

EDIT: Using current(Latest) version AVS+, system install, not buitin.
Above is not a problem for me, just wondering if it is expected behaviour.

EDIT: This THREAD TITLE that reads "MeGUI 6.6.6.6 2050210 released" , should I think read "MeGUI 6.6.6.6.20250210 released".

EDIT: Dont know if I may have caused a problem, I removed the entire AutoUpdate.xml section for <iUpgradeable xsi:type="ProgramFile"> for NeroAAC which I installed myself into tools/neroaac folder,
(as it kept trying to download it from rarefiles site).

If not expected behaviour, then I'll do reinstall MEGUI again.

[Kurt.noise]

yes, its the default behaviour :

It's not a problem in my opinion.

About the Update system I have some not important sugesstions:
18965

1) Seems when a software is not used go to Disable status.
Please remain it like Enabled until the user mark it like Disabled (never needed) or when the version installed is the last know (abandoned like the NeroAacEnc, AVI-Mux-GUI, BeSplit, Haali, PgcDemux, VobSub and now tsMuxer, maybe also OggEnc replaced by Opus)

2) I have a problem with MediaInfo:
Local version/date: 24.06/2024
Server version/date: 18.05/2018
Update available ???

3) The Qaac encoder need QuickTime installed or a folder QTfiles64 with the dll's needed (CoreAudioToolbox.dll, etc.). If that folder can't be installed with MeGUI maybe is better use the same procedure than NeroAacEnc and FDK-AAC and ask for the qaac.exe location here:

Sorry, I dont understand what you're trying to say...I dont think its disabled by default.

Looks like you have an old update.xml settings somewhere...or did you use the stable server ?

Anyway, I think I should drop this package from the update. Because it should always been there.

Well, ok. Good idea.

[tebasuna51]

Sorry, I dont understand what you're trying to say...I dont think its disabled by default.

If a package is not used when there are new versions I need Enable it manually to download new version.
But I say it is not important.

Did you use a RDP connection in order to use File Indexer ? Which kind of input files you got that ?

[LeXXuz]

I think this has been fixed. Let me know if you need a fresh build.


That'd be great. I will check it out in a couple of days when I'm back at the machine. Right now I'm limited to 1440p over RDP since my screen here doesn't support any higher resolution. :)


Did you use a RDP connection in order to use File Indexer ? Which kind of input files you got that ?

Aw, yes. After using RealVNC for many years, I switched back to RD because of recent license changes with RealVNC and seeing they made a lot of positive changes to RD since last time I've used it.
Finally being able to run CUDA and OpenCL code via a RDP session was the final straw that made me switch back. I can index files over RD with DG's own GUI just fine but in MeGUI DGindexNV is gone. Therefore I never expected it could be the RDP session. :o

In addition, over RD I can load a .dgi file in AVS script creator just fine. It's just the file indexer mask not showing DGIndexNV anymore.

Not sure why but its because there is a restriction (https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/blob/bbc596846f475f29c367f975da2263611fcb7da5/core/details/MeGUISettings.cs#L1578) in the code.

Probably because that was the case many years ago. You could not access GPU hardware on a RDP session. It was completely replaced by a virtual adapter from MS. That's what made me use 3rd party software like VNC to be able to still use GPU for indexing. Thankfully that has changed.

Here is a screenshot from the remote system. As you can see the GPUs are now still accessible PLUS the adapter Windows uses for the RDP session.

[nechto]

BTW, I found one case, but not sure it need to be resolved, due to very rare case.
If you add a lot of tasks one by one (using File, Open) - sometimes megui freezes(absolutely, stall). Seems it is happening when you are pushing Quiee in between of processes or while LSmash is working ...

Solution in this case - to try to close main window(using choose of windows in Task Bar and pushing "X" there). In this case process will continue (while main process will reject to close due other processes and also continue to work)

[Kurt.noise]

define *a lot*

[nechto]

Sorry, for me doom9 was not avalable for 2 weeks.

a lot for me = 10-20 avi's to recode. 1 by 1. not using "to recode folder", but really open 1st, choose parameters abd Queue, 2nd, parameters and queue, 3rd+parameters and queue. On 10-15th it is starting to freeze a little bit + sometime it is completely freezing/stopping. Until I try to close main window - it is reject to close, but total program start continue to work.

[Kurt.noise]

Hi, I live in Brazil, and my English is very poor. I'll try to explain. If you search old forums, you'll see complaints about this issue. When you run "AVS Script preview" to see the script's output, the forum is at https://sourceforge.net/projects/megui/. I tried to find the complaint and couldn't. Maybe you'll have an easier time checking it out.

If we look at versions prior to this one, we'll see that my comment makes sense. When you place the original image of the script to be edited, the scroll bar in the lower right corner disappears, both vertically and horizontally. As I mentioned earlier, there was a MeGUI update with this same behavior. Having used MeGUI for a long time to edit and render my videos, I notice the differences.

[zezinho]

This screenshot refers to version "MeGUI-x64-6.6.6.6_20250210". Note the dark arrow I added. The scroll bar is missing in its original size. In the screenshot of the current version, "MeGUI-x64-6.6.6.6_20250716". Note that the scroll bar appears in its original size. In my opinion, it shouldn't appear when you activate the "AVS Script preview". Perhaps the way I'm explaining it isn't enough to understand my reasoning. I'm just highlighting the differences between the two versions. This is due to the time I've been using MeGUI.

I have a problem with special characters in file names again.

The whole indexing and avs creation process with DGIndex works just fine.
But as soon as I try to enqueue these files, MeGUI gives an error that the file can't be found. The very same file it just worked with through the whole indexing/avs creation process.

The usual suspects in german: ä ö ü ß.


In addition I have a request for a dark mode. But I don't know how hard and extensive this would be to implement. :o

Could be. I don't know anymore. These problems with unicode filenames got so frustrating and tiresome over the years. Not blaming anyone in particular but it's very sad that we all still have to cope withe these problems in 2025. I have had older versions of avs+ and MeGUI that worked fine with unicode filenames, now the problem is back. I can rename those files to work properly, of course. But in all honesty I really wish these probleme would be gone for good.

M'kay. Can't judge anything I haven't seen yet. I often work late in a darker room so the dark mode usually is much easier on the eyes. Especially when judging video previews the darker windows are much better as they don't outshine dark scenes in video content. :)

And then, even if you made it here the guy on the other side doesn't owe you anything. Did you pay for a service to be rendered? No. Did you ever do anything for the people you're expecting help from? Most likely no. Imagine asking strangers in the street for a quarter. They don't have to give you one, it's their own choice. Even if in a similar situation you would give a quarter to the next guy if you had one, that still doesn't mean that the time you need that quarter somebody is going to have to give it to you. But, chances are just a bit higher if you're generous, that somebody will eventually be generous with you.

I also disagree with you on that. And in my opinion you have NO right whatsoever regarding a free tool. Like Kurt said; don't like it? Don't use it!

I've been using MeGUI since it was developed and went through many ups and downs with that tool over the many years.

And after this long time it still has it's problems and flaws that can be annoying at times.

But I would never ever criticise any of the devs to do a lazy or bad job. These good people do this on their own free time with nothing in return.

For me, I'm grateful that these people share their knowledge and skill to give me tools and help to do things I never could've done on my own.

Hi,

I have a problem with special characters in file names again.

The whole indexing and avs creation process with DGIndex works just fine.
But as soon as I try to enqueue these files, MeGUI gives an error that the file can't be found. The very same file it just worked with through the whole indexing/avs creation process.

The usual suspects in german: ä ö ü ß.
Just did few tests on my own :

filename = "Ça alors, comme c'est bizarre - 28 ans plus Tard.mkv" - input is a normal h264 video track. The file path also does not contain any special characters.

Using the File Indexer,
- DGSource : indexing ok / rendering ko
- FFVideoSource : indexing ok / rendering ko
- LSmashSource // LWLibavVideoSource : indexing ok / rendering ok

Using directly the AVS File Creator,
- BSVideoSource : indexing ok / rendering ok

So, I would say, this does not concern avisynth+ but much more what did you use as source. If you are looking for specifically hardware decoding support, I would say, go with L-Smash Works or BestSource plugins. Otherwise, ask developers/maintainers from other plugins to support special characters in filenames.

This problem really is weird. DGI works fine with older AVS and MeGUI versions. Can't explain why, really. I'll stick with dgi. It's the most precise and reliable indexer when working with elementary streams. I just rename my files with a script before processing and renaming them afterwards. Gives me less headache than working with another indexer. ;) Thanks for testing and confirming. :)

Have you considered on a dark mode yet? Even if it looks 'uglier' it's easier on the eyes in a dark environment. :o

...I just rename my files with a script before processing and renaming them afterwards...
That is the recommended process to work with many software.
BTW the final name don't need be the same than original name.

Low priority. There are several new features that I would like to add first.

[outhud]

Thanks for continuing MeGUI!

Some small things I noticed:
- On a new install, it gives an error that BestSource isn't installed once I go to AVS Script Creator. I think the original MeGUI would straight away ask if you want to install things like this which aren't installed by default?

- Changing CRF in the svtav1psy settings doesn't seem to work. Log says "Error: Invalid parameter 'crf' with value '37.0'" (Svt[info]: SVT [version]: SVT-AV1-Essential Encoder Lib v3.1.2)

- I don't know of any easy way to set-up QTGMC from scratch on Windows, and install all dependencies. Is that something that could be in the scope of this, with options for it in the Updater? (big ask I know :) )

Ok, I will check out.

Yes but this has been fixed yesterday :D

For what for do you need QTGMC ?

Ok, I will check out.

Thank you! :)

Thank you! :)

You may want to check out Dogway's filter repository:
https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=182881

And opt for his QTGMC+ script. I use it regularly and it works quite well. All necessary dependencies are mentioned in the script. Most if not all of them you'll find in his repo as well. :)
It's not really hard to add that to your own script in MeGUI's AVS-editor.

[StainlessS]

You'de be better off installing full version Avisynth and providing your own pre-made scripts for this.
You cannot really expect MeGUI to do everything on its own, that puts an unacceptable burden on Kurt.
EDIT: Too much work keeping up with changing requirements of a script function like QTGMC().
(also, there are multiple different versions of it)

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask for some information, I have a server with an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X CPU, with an integrated video card, but there is no option to select it in the megui settings, what can I do?

This is for decoding only. Use D3D11 under Win11 when you iGPU is the only or main GPU of your system. But I can tell you right away, the benefit, if any, is negligible with a fast CPU and a very weak iGPU like yours.
Use the default software decoder unless you know what you are doing. It's way less susceptible for errors if other software may occupy and interfere with your GPU during an encoding job.

EDIT: I never used this option, didn't even know it was there lately. @Kurt.noise: isn't this just for the preview window anyway?

[King-Zeus78]

Ok, thank you a thousand, for your support, then I wanted to tell you in the latest version you released, autocrop from error .. opt for something wrong with me

Can be use within latest l-smash or bestsource indexing.

[stimco]

Indexing isn't working, and coding progress isn't showing. Version 02102025 is stable. This is the last stable version.
After indexing, ffms crashes. L-smash indexes endlessly without stopping.
When you start coding, the progress window does not show progress.
When encoding, svtav1psy set the bitrate to 7000 kbps, but the actual bitrate was 2700 kbps. I checked it three times.
Two-pass encoding.
This happened after updating the svtav1psy version.

[LeXXuz]

How do I get the OneClick Encoder to copy over all the subtitle tracks from the source file automatically when selecting to encode an entire directory and not just a single file?

I've selected the proper languages in the preset settings. Source and destination container is Matroska, so subs are supported.

So far, no matter what I've tried the encoded files are missing their subs and I have to mux them in manually afterwards.

Sorry If I may have missed something obvious. I hardly ever used that oneclick thingy. :o

[Kurt.noise]

@LeXXuzz : what kind of subtitle tracks ? normally, they get automatically from input. Posting a logfile may help.

@Maxxr : you have to "force 10 bits" from video codec settings or put a extra line as ConvertBits(10) at the end of your avs script.

Hi,


Just did few tests on my own :

filename = "Ça alors, comme c'est bizarre - 28 ans plus Tard.mkv" - input is a normal h264 video track. The file path also does not contain any special characters.

Using the File Indexer,
- DGSource : indexing ok / rendering ko
- FFVideoSource : indexing ok / rendering ko
- LSmashSource // LWLibavVideoSource : indexing ok / rendering ok

Using directly the AVS File Creator,
- BSVideoSource : indexing ok / rendering ok

So, I would say, this does not concern avisynth+ but much more what did you use as source. If you are looking for specifically hardware decoding support, I would say, go with L-Smash Works or BestSource plugins. Otherwise, ask developers/maintainers from other plugins to support special characters in filenames.

I just noticed that the very same files work in One-Click Encoder Mode WITH DGI used as indexer.
Logic tells me this can't be a problem with Avisynth or DGIndex but somewhere within MeGUI?

Do you use internal AvS? Try to select external one.

A logfile might be great here. iirc it's the same process, either the file indexer or the one-click engine.

I have Megui 6.6.6.6 20250716 portable. And I am trying to change the speed of an audio file. But when I try to change audio speed "slow down 25 to 24 with pitch correction", it gives error. I have checked the log and found this error:
--[Error] [10/29/2025 4:50:34 AM] An error occurred
---[NoImage] Script error: expected )'
---[NoImage] ((null), line 9, column 19)

I tried to do it on another computer, It gave error like this:

error occurred: Script error: There is no function named 'TimeStretchSSRC'.

How to fix these errors? Your help is much appreciated.

[Kurt.noise]

https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/issues/38

wait for the next release or update your avs script manually...

[paulsteyn]

How do I update my avs script manually? When I encode audio, I don't get any avs script created by megui.
also, on that given link the owner said that the issue has been fixed, then how to downloaded that fixed version?

[therealjoeblow]

Small request... when I'm using the AutoEncode tool, I have it set to ask me to add/configure the extra tracks (audio, subtitle, chapters, etc). When I open the file interface to pick those files, it defaults to the last folder that I used for the previous encode.

And the problem I have is that when I've been encoding multiple seasons of TV shows, when encoding S##E01 of the next season, being forgetful and not always paying attention, I often start selecting the audio and subtitle tracks from the previous season and not the current one. Despite that I've opened my .AVS file for episode #1 for the next season from the next season's folder.

My request would be, can this default to using the same folder that the AVS or source file for encoding was selected from? Then it should be starting in the right directory off the bat and not need the user to manually switch to the same as the source input folder. And then my forgetful self won't need to manually remux all 12 of the episodes after they were automatically encoded with the right audio and subtitle tracks ;-)

Thank you for the consideration,
TRJB

This implies to change a lot of things internally. It's not just to take into account input path. Did you try drag & drop instead of the open files dialog ?

[therealjoeblow]

Yes, actually that's what I typically do, I drag and drop my .AVS file onto the Avisynth Script field on the main window's "Video Encoding" section. It doesn't matter, the input path for the audio and subtitle tracks still defaults to the path of the last encode.

[Kurt.noise]

Allright, I've made something (https://github.com/Kurtnoise-zeus/megui/commit/35c548588cf66bf1e4eed2d3d05234eb7aa0c8dd)...:)

Kurt, any chance that you could release the update please,
as it currently stands it is a bit infuriating when having to repeatedly change directories for each stream, especially when you have dozens+ of clips to render.

Update your avs script using ConvertBits(10) or check "force 10 bits encoding" from encoder settings :

I mean permanently. After a while the package gets automatically disabled again.

[Kurt.noise]

Not as far I know.

[stimco]

When encoding av1, the bitrate problem still persists. 6252 is set according to fact 2668. The file extension is MKV, but we still get .ifv

[Kurt.noise]

I still dont understand what you're saying...

[stimco]

[Kurt.noise]

In what way this is a bug ? target bitrate depends highly on the content itself. Maybe that does not required more bits, who knows. Did you try another encoders like x264 or x265 in order to see how it goes ? svt-av1-psy is not yet optimized for target bitrate but much more on crf stuff...

[stimco]

x264 or x265 accurately deliver the requested bitrate. This has been verified multiple times.

[Kurt.noise]

This kind of crappy movie does not deserve more bits actually.

I've already told you why in my previous reply.

[tebasuna51]

@stimco
I make a test with a very simple video encoded with SVT-AV1 and your parameters and obtain a very low bitrate like you.

Check your logfile:
1) The parameters are sended correctly to SvtAv1EncApp.exe, then it is not a MeGUI problem.

2) The encoder know the desired bitrate but seems not need more, in my sample:
--[Information] [23/11/2025 8:01:03] Final statistics
---[Information] [23/11/2025 8:01:03] Video Bitrate Desired: 5548 kbit/s
---[Information] [23/11/2025 8:01:03] Video Bitrate Obtained (approximate): 187 kbit/s

Like you see there are a big difference and it is a feature of the encoder.

[LeXXuz]

Clearly a problem with the codec and NOT MeGUI.

So this should better be discussed in the appropriate forums and not here where no one can tell why that codec doesn't use the desired bitrate.
It's either by design or a bug.

[stimco]

@tebasuna51
This is a build of AV1. It doesn't work properly in any version.

[stimco]

Maybe it's worth using a different codec option. SVT-AV1-HDR / SVT-AV1-Essential, for example.

[StainlessS]

Other encoders may add padding (bucket loads of zeros) to acquire required bitrate,
perhaps AV1 dont do that or not as yet implemented.
As suggested earlier, ask in appropriate forums.
[EDIT: Perhaps AV1 is not yet at a stage where they wanna add unnecessary stuff, perhaps will be added eventually]

[Kurt.noise]

Does anyone have any issues using the current update server ?

[StainlessS]

Seems to work ok for me, just updated eac3to and ffmpeg.

[tebasuna51]

The old HDStreamsExtractor seems can't support the last eac3to 3.55 language codes (also OPUS tracks).

[Kurt.noise]

Language code is not handled by eac3to but something else.

Opus & AV1 cannot be extracted within the current haali demuxer. I've to use mkvextract.

[tebasuna51]

Language code is not handled by eac3to but something else.

It is managed by the HDStreamsExtractor code inside MeGUI, like you see in the track names now eac3to inform about the 3 ISO 639 set 2 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639_language_codes) characters instead the full language names like before.

Then HDStreamsExtractor code can't undestand them and show all like 'english'
If you can't modify the code it is better preserve the previous eac3to version 3.54 with no major changes except that.

[VoodooFX]

@Kurt.noise

1) "svt-av1-psy" in the updated program is not "psy" anymore. Rename it to "svt-av1".
2) Doing "svt-av1-psy" job, the program is passing "crf" as float ["33.0" for example] - that leads to error.

Another request if possible...

I have some material which was originally shot at 23.976FPS, but when released as a PAL retail disc, it was encoded at 25.000FPS, with the audio having been sped-up.

I'm re-encoding those discs back to the original 23.976FPS and using the built in default AC3 encoder to slow-down the audio track to remove the "chipmunk" effect.

"AutoEncode" lets me do just about everything I want, EXCEPT, the FPS selector is greyed out in the "Adaptive Muxer" and won't let me set it to 23.976, it is set at 25.000, the original source frame rate.

Are you able to unlock that so that I can select 23.976 and have the process automatically mux all of the new tracks at the corrected frame rate?

https://i.postimg.cc/d1KJjzV4/Auto_Encode.jpg

Many thanks!
TRJB

[Kurt.noise]

Yes, sure

[tebasuna51]

With mkv source file for video 25 fps I can select other FPS, like 23.976, but is ignored when send the mkvmerge job.
Still send --default-duration 0:25/1fps instead the necesary --default-duration 0:24000/1001fps

I was still having problems using recent system installed Avisynth+,
so till now I'de gone back to an old verstion of avs+.

I've now installed most recent XP version of avisynth+, and restored original MeGUI redist folder, and no problems encountered.

Here is the latest ver$ Avs+ for system install (Use/Install the XP version for MeGUI).

New build: Avisynth r4483
https://github.com/pinterf/AviSynthPlus/releases/tag/v3.7.6pre-r4483

20260203 3.7.5.r4483 (pre 3.7.6)
--------------------------------
* rst documentation update: RGBAdjust https://avisynthplus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/avisynthdoc/corefilters/adjust.html
* rst documentation update: ColorYUV https://avisynthplus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/avisynthdoc/corefilters/coloryuv.html
* optimization: add AVX2 TurnLeft/TurnRight/Turn180 (R/L: 1,5-3x speed).
* optimization: ConvertBits AVX2 integer->float
* optimization: ConvertToPlanarRGB(A): YUV->RGB add AVX2 (2-3x speed)
* optimization: ConvertToPlanarRGB(A): YUV->RGB 16 bit: a quicker way (1,5x)
* Fix: C version of 32-bit ConvertToPlanarRGB YUV->RGB to not clamp output RGB values.
* ConvertToPlanarRGB(A): add bits parameter to alter target bit-depth.
* ConvertToPlanarRGB(A): from YUV->RGB full range output: optimized in-process when bits=32, other cases call ConvertBits internally.
* Fix: Packed RGB conversions altering the bit-depth (e.g. rgb32->ConvertToRGB64() worked always in full range.
* Add more AVX512 resampler code. (WIP)
* Add more AVX512_BASE code paths (Resamplers)
* Build: add _avx512b.cpp/hpp pattern in CMake to detect source to compile with base (F,CD,BW,DQ,VL) flags.
However AVX512_BASE itself is set only when AVX512_FAST found.
For pre-Ice Lake (older AVX512) systems you can enable it with SetMaxCPU("avx512base+") and get the optimized AVX512_BASE functions.
* Build: add new architecture z/Architecture

EDIT: Folder x64-xp, or x86-xp for 32 bit.

@nechto : there is only one audio stream based on your logfile...so, you can't have more as target. Maybe, that was another job ?

@StainlessS : so, basically, you say that the latest C++ Runtime dlls (https://aka.ms/vc14/vc_redist.x64.exe) are not xp compatible ?

[StainlessS]

I copied files from my system32 to redist folder,
cant remember if I also tried copy dll's from the linked installer. (or from system32 AFTER install of the linked installer).

I usually keep my runtimes quite current using https://github.com/abbodi1406/vcredist/releases
[EDIT: Whenever posted in this thread New versions of free software used in the GUI's :- https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=184719 ]

the problem is:
I have Russian as default and English as second default.
in result I cant recode folder due to system automatically not getting different than Russian language(first default).

P.S. And I would prefer to have setting "make video without audio if noone audio is matching" and if this setting is not set + video has only 1 audio to include this audio automatically without match to choosen language - sometimes video contain language of system, not real language(eg Android in French will give you video with "French").

probably because the AvisynthWrapper.dll is not compatible within the latest Avisynth+ library.

What sure that works currently its : latest Avisynth+ r4483 & AvisynthWrapper library both compiled w/ VS2026 & latest VC++ runtime dlls

because this is what I'm using these days on my machine (Windows 11 Pro x64).

So I have MeGUI 6.6.6.6 on my PC but can't open it.
Does anyone know cause and cure for this weirdness? Many thanks.
Do you have avisynth as standalone installed in your system ?

[pooksahib]

Do you have avisynth as standalone installed in your system ?
I have 3.7.0 (32 and 64 bit) installed via AvisynthRepository. If I delete settings.xml then I can open 6.6.6.6 but unticking the 'always use the included avisynth' box results in me not being able to open it next time. Uninstalling the Repository avisynths fixes the problem but I shouldn't have to do that surely... MeGUI 2944 has no such problem. Thanks for your interest.

No support for 32bits stuff from me. Its time to move on.

"It was during the era of VirtualDubMod, about 15 years ago. I paid $2,000 to have custom AVSI and DLL filters developed specifically for my Remastered and Remake projects, many of which became quite successful. Unfortunately, these were developed as 32-bit tools, and the developer has since passed away. Despite trying every modern 64-bit filter available today, I haven't been able to find anything that matches the quality those filters provided—lossless rendering that brings every single strand of hair and every drop of rain to life. Is there any way to run these 32-bit filters, which even well-known companies have sought after, on modern systems?":confused:

This is not related to megui whatsoever. Why are you posting in this thread ?

Sometimes a video just won't edit properly. I've just had an old wmv video that went out of sync when I used 64bit but perfect with 32bit.
The Repository only goes as far as 3.7.0. I'm using 3.7.5 with MeGUI 6666's internal avisynth but would still like to know why 6666 shuts down if I untick the 'always use...' box.

That is not "the repository", the repository of Avisynth+ is there: https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus

[pooksahib]

I see what's happened here. What I've been talking about is the Universal Avisynth Installer but, once you have it, your working folder is called AvisynthRepository. Just to reiterate, my issue is: my MeGUI 6666 won't open if I've unticked the 'Always use the included' box. To get it back up I either have to delete the settings.xml file or uninstall my avisynth (from the Universal Avisynth Installer).

[StainlessS]

@pooksahib
Yes, I had the same thing, If you install XP version AVS+ from avisynth repository, then should work ok.
I need to test some stuff to see if there is a better solution.

See earlier in this thread. :- https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=2027905#post2027905

EDIT: Copy the XP version (avisynth.dl, etc) into you Groucho2004's Avisynth Universal Installer directory and install that via the Universal Installer setavs.cmd.
Hopefully, we can come up with a better solution soon.
(maybe ideally, MeGUI would have its own pre-installed requirements [not including any redistributed dir stuff] and current non MeGUI avisynth could have it's own requirements,
and no redist directory stuff required at all. I hope that this is possible, but dont know.)

[pooksahib]

Thanks, StainlessS, good to know it wasn't just me. However, since I last posted, I've had a second encode fail with 6666 (audio sync issue) so I'm going back to MeGUI 2944 for now.

[pooksahib]

I edit a lot of WMV's with MeGUI 2944 and, in the last week or so, a problem has arisen that I've never had before: the audio encode stage takes forever. So long, in fact, that I 'end task' and convert the audio to WAV and start again. Has anyone else had this slow audio encode and maybe knows of cause and cure? It seems to be very random: I've had WMV's that I've worked on a few times successfully but when I go back to make another cut - audio takes ages. Very odd...

[StainlessS]

@pooksahib
That is not for me a recent thing, quite some time ago I decided to use WAV audio always, and pre-convert to Float WAV at output samplerate (44.1KHz), because
I've found that Normalise can take considerable time in MeGUI, especially if other audio manipulation occurs in avs script. (eg convert to 44.1KHz samplerate).

My BAT file for conversion to Float 44.1KHz,

CLIP_To_OUTPUT_STEREO_WAV.cmd

REM Convert audio to WAV, 32 bit FLOAT stereo, 44.1KHz without dynamic range compression.
REM We DO NOT LIKE SPACES IN FILE NAMES (REM == REMark ie comment)
REM We DO NOT LIKE ACCENTS IN FILE NAMES.
REM Input from same directory at [EDIT: as] this bat file, output to existing "OUTPUT" directory in same directory as this bat file.

setlocal

REM Where to Find ffmpeg
set FFMPEG="C:\BIN\ffmpeg.exe"

REM Where to get input file, No terminating Backslash, "." = current directory
set INDIR="."

REM Where to place output file, No terminating Backslash.
set OUTDIR=".\OUTPUT"

FOR %%A IN (*.thd *.dts *.ac3 *.w64 *.aac *.m4a *.eac3 *.wav *.mp3) DO (
%FFMPEG% -drc_scale 0 -i "%INDIR%\%%A" -vn -acodec pcm_f32le -ac 2 -ar 44100 "%OUTDIR%\%%~nxA.WAV"
del "%INDIR%\%%A"
)

DRC_Scale thingy only for ac3 (I think), will show warning if not ac3 [just ignore].
Maybe change to 48KHz if required. (but suggest leave as float)

EDIT: Will batch convert multiple files, source files auto deleted in red.
Could add additional file extension as in blue, incl video files if audio extraction required.

EDIT: Remove the "-ac 2" should leave original channels rather than stereo.

[pooksahib]

Thanks, StainlessS. Myself, I just convert the audio of a tricky WMV by using wma2wav. It'll also correct any errors in the wma audio. Then just script like this:
a=FFVideoSource("D:\videofile.wmv", fpsnum=25, fpsden=1)
b=WAVSource("D:\output of wma2wav.wav")
audiodub(a,b)

Whatever blows your skirts up :)

[pooksahib]

I edit a lot of WMV's with MeGUI 2944 and, in the last week or so, a problem has arisen that I've never had before: the audio encode stage takes forever.
Cause and cure found! I totally forgot that I'd changed from avisynth 2.6.0 after I noticed that MeGUI 6666 was available. After some testing, I've found that avisynth+ 3.5.5, 3.7.0 and 3.7.5 have huge trouble encoding wma. With 2.6.0 reinstalled, it's effortless.

[LeXXuz]

Hi,


Just did few tests on my own :

filename = "Ça alors, comme c'est bizarre - 28 ans plus Tard.mkv" - input is a normal h264 video track. The file path also does not contain any special characters.

Using the File Indexer,
- DGSource : indexing ok / rendering ko
- FFVideoSource : indexing ok / rendering ko
- LSmashSource // LWLibavVideoSource : indexing ok / rendering ok

Using directly the AVS File Creator,
- BSVideoSource : indexing ok / rendering ok

So, I would say, this does not concern avisynth+ but much more what did you use as source. If you are looking for specifically hardware decoding support, I would say, go with L-Smash Works or BestSource plugins. Otherwise, ask developers/maintainers from other plugins to support special characters in filenames.

Kurt, I think I've found the reason for the issue with special characters in filenames. MeGUI's Avisynth Script Creator creates UTF-8 encoded avs files. However the routine that enqueues avs files within MeGUI seems to expect ANSI coded files.

Try to enqueue an UTF-8 encoded script WITH special characters and you'll get an error. Open this in Notepad++ or any other editor and convert it to ANSI. Load that file again in MeGUI and queueing will work fine with any indexer. DGIndex files are ANSI encoded as well when using MeGUIs indexing routine.

Could you take another look into this pls? :thanks:

The SVT AV1 compilation is still crooked and doesn't respond to the specified bitrate (in fact, it lowers it by half). The same applies to CRF. VID Coder behaves adequately.
The bitrate is set to 6500 in two passes.
The actual bitrate is 3800, while VidCoder uses 6300.

I dont know why you're still using this encoder if you are not satisfied by the rate control target bitrate. I'm not responsible for this. Personnally, I used to use it through CRF values and Im quite happy with the results. Report any issues to the SVT-AV1 team, not me. Or, better use x264 or x265.

[stimco]

https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=2025661#post2025661
I set CRF 16 and got a bitrate of 3200. This is just ridiculous.

[Kurt.noise]

Ridiculous of what ? 3200 kbps does not mean nothing like that...

And btw, youre comparing apples and oranges (VidCoder and megui dont use the same encoder).

[stimco]

XVid4PSP tested the standard SVT AV1 version 4.1, and everything works perfectly with both CRF and two-pass VBR. The CRF scale is consistent, and two-pass VBR outputs almost accurately, without distorting the specified 6800 into 2600. The quality is excellent, and the settings window is present. My conclusion is that all these forks are clumsy crap. PSY functions have been transferred to the original.
And one more thing... when encoding FFV, the status window doesn't close after completion; it freezes and starts counting down from zero, although the task is complete.
The x265 settings window is taken from x264... why?, if it doesn't work.

I am choosing dont encode video and choosing different Audio, choosing folder and .. reciving same files without any audio recode.

p.s. still cant update - it is showing me ffs 5.1 is available but cant update..

[GhostAFRippEr]

fyi, I just uploaded a fresh build for x86 plateform (not tested though). Some people seems to be interested by using it.

Same link as above.

Yeah,thx bor, unfortunately, IÂ’m stuck on 32-bit as well :D IÂ’m currently using MeGUI-2944-32 because the older filters are much more stable, which is why I havenÂ’t been able to switch to your versions yet. Right now, some packages are missing in the update, so IÂ’m trying to manually move them into the folder, but then the program won't launch... If you can fix this as well, IÂ’ll finally be able to get it running! :D

[nechto]

here it is

[tebasuna51]

Read here about the A_AC3/BSID9 codec. (https://www.matroska.org/technical/codec_specs.html):
Normal ac3 is defined as bitstream id 8 (5 Bits, numbers are 0-15). Everything below 8 is still compatible with all decoders that handle 8 correctly. Everything higher are additions that break decoder compatibility.

Then mkvextract exit with a ERROR.
Maybe there are other tools than can manage that codec but I can't test them without a sample.

Also D_WEBVTT seems not supported.

[EDIT]Tested the samples here (https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/6207#no1) with eac3to and also not supported but using ffmpeg them are decoded fine.

[nechto]

Ohh, pity.

[StainlessS]

Feature request,

On main MeGUI form Audio output Extension, when set to "M4A" it is output in AutoEncode as "mp4", can the "M4A" setting be honoured please.

Thank you :)

EDIT: It is honoured when encoding only audio stream via the main form audio 'Queue" button.
(I dont want it to have the same extension as the final output muxed file)

EDIT: x265 video encoder "File format" RAWHEVC outputs *.hevc, Good.
x264 video encoder "File format" RAWAVC outputs *.264, Good.

Are/Is,
Avisynth r4604 x64-xp, with any version of AvisynthWrapper.dll or no AvisynthWrapper.dll at all.
Everything else failed, [MeGUI shows splash screen and then vanishes]


Only tried x64-xp and x64-w7 with all versions of wrapper (only tried no wrapper, original wrapper and v141 wrapper with x64-19.50-clangcl-llvm-20.1.8 and x64-19.50)

Sorry, I aint got the foggiest notion what the problem cause is.

I would think maybe best if could demand that user have all necessary redistributables installed system wide instead of that redist folder thingy.

EDIT: I dont know if the clangcl-livm version of Avisynth requires any further runtimes, I aint ever used it/clang.
And dont know if any x64-19.50 ver$ requires any additional stuff either.
Seemed kinda pointless to do extensive tests on anything other than xp and w7 versions of avisynth.

[Kurt.noise]

I dont know why you test this from now because the wrapper is not needed anymore...

About runtimes, well it depends how libraries and tools have been compiled. For instance, for BestSource, this is my own compiled library which is provided. And I know, for sure, the latest runtimes are required since Im using VS2026.

[StainlessS]

Well ok, but maybe document that MeGUI will work with MeGUI built-in avisynth, OR, system installed Latest avisynth xp version only.

A few bugs and oddities:
It is impossible to open an AviSynth+ script in MeGUI (v 20260403) when using these plugin versions:
FFT3dFilter V2.12
neo_f3kdb V. r10

However, it works with these versions of the same plugins:
FFT3dFilter V2.10
neo_f3kdb V. r9

MeGUI closes immediately, so there is no log I can provide. Regardless of the plugin versions, the script opens correctly in VirtualDub2.
AviSynth+ 3.75 is installed on the PC, and the issue is the same whether using the AviSynth bundled with MeGUI or the system-installed version (AviSynth selection option).

The provided SvtAv1EncApp.exe is a 32-bit version; it stops encoding as soon as the file exceeds 2GB (which is very common when encoding in 4K).
Replacing it with another version (5fish/SVT-AV1-PSY Mar 28) allows encoding to complete successfully, even beyond 2GB.
However, with this version, MeGUI no longer provides detailed feedback; only total duration, frame count, current size, and elapsed time are displayed.

I hope this information helps improve the software.

[stimco]

5fish/SVT-AV1-PSY
Works only in single-pass mode. In two-pass mode, it returns an error on the second pass.

OK, where to start,
There is no problem with recent ffmpeg's, I was managing to confuse the hell out of myself by comparing outputs from two differing versions of MeGUI,
Older MeGUI_6.6.6.6.6 20251116_x64 and later MeGUI_6.6.6.6.6 20260403_x64. (Copying entire MeGUI folders and updating/changing tools directories on-the-fly).

Anyways, the real problem is a default setting in the new MeGUI_6.6.6.6.6 20260403 x265 Config settings for HEVC Profile,
[clickMe]
https://i.postimg.cc/Cn88YR49/HEVC-Profile.jpg (https://postimg.cc/Cn88YR49)
In current MeGUI clean install shows HEVC Profile = "Main Still Picture Profile", this is the setting that produces big encodes, and nothing whatever to do with FFMPEG.
In old MEGUI, that drop down selection box is disabled.

I've just changed HEVC Profile to "Main Profile" (Is that better than "Main 10 profile", I got no idea).

Sorry guys.

I am manually copying these files from an older working version to the x86 32-bit version, but the program won't open. If you could at least adjust the code so that the x86 version recognizes the tools when we manually add them instead of crashing, the x86 version would finally be usable. I have been waiting for an update for a long time.
