I was encoding movie with the newest version 1.86 beta AGK and i have a question!
When i choose in the assistant "forced sharp matrix",then in the log window AGk doesnt says that its using forced sharp matrix like it was saying in the previous versions! I was trying this on the different resolution like 528 or 640...!
Why is that-does AGK dont use this option or what when i choose to use it???
Anybody..??

Hi dj, have a look here: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?threadid=88118

If I can be familiar, it's good from time to time to stop encoding and look around, ie read the threads in the forum :cool: ; that's why I have told myself (in another thread) to go back fishing :D

Ive seen that tread BigDid-i was fishing back there (always:p ).And how can i rename sharpatrix to sharpmatrix?(my comp. dont allow me to rename it-it says that i must name the file...??)
but is this "sharpatrix" (wrong spelled word in the input deirectory)
reason that info doesnt appear in the log window-Maybe Lenox will tell! Should i switch back to the 1.8.5 version,beacose this new version doesnt use forced sharp matrix???

You can:
-go back to 1.85 and wait for a new rev to solve the bug
-rename .sharpatrix to .sharpmatrix; I use windows explorer, in the directory, right click on the file, dropmenu and left click on rename; the file should be modify-able, rename it you are done
-or create from scratch a .sharpmatrix file: open notepad, new, save as
".sharpmatrix" (make a copypaste including the"") you are done

Once you have the file well named and in the right place, AGK will tell you it will use it; as long as it doesn't find it it can't use it.

I have not included the option go fishing, wait for the 1.87 to come out, but it's up to you :D
One last tip, make really an extensive use of the search function, you should event be able to retrieve the howto make the .sharpmatrix from scratch, given by Lenox himself :)

Mea culpa, upon thinking hard about it, I remember that the post was not about .sharpmatrix but about .ess or .cartoon or one of the hidden options; anyhow the creation process is the same, see my above post:
open notepad, new, save as ".sharpmatrix" (make a copypaste including the"");
short story longer: once the empty file created by/within the notepad is named ".sharpmatrix" in the dialog box it will appears as .sharpmatrix in the windows explorer .

Don't know if clear, waking up and in the fog; if more info needed, after a few cups of coffee, I will try a different approach :)

Bye
