[FEAT.] Adding a soft stop/start feature to MeGUI

Actually, when the main encoding task is started, you have to wait until it is finished before shutting down your computer (it can last hours : 3 to 20 hours for me).

I tried to enter hibernation but Windows complained telling there was not enough resources to perform the operation even when the encoding process was paused (this is very true for x264.exe which eat a lot of OS resources even when paused).

My idea is to use the Windows DbgHelp API and override a SEH (Structure Exception Handler) from which a full memory dump of the encoding process can be performed upon reception of a control-break signal sent by MeGUI.
The process can then be restarted from the saved memory dump at the next MeGUI start.

all bug reports must be posted in the megui project bug tracker on sourceforge.

When attempting to enque the audio encode portion of a job, dts to ac3 using either ffmpeg or aften, click enque MeGUI errors with the message: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' Tried several different files and they all do this when trying to enque the audio job. Used to work fine so no sure what changed.

I can still convert the audio using eac3to via the stream extract tool but not from the input tab. Any ideas what's going on?


Problem 2, latest update of mp4box is giving the following odd error when trying to mux, previous version worked fine:

[Error] Log for job17 (mux, 00000.mp4 -> 00000-muxed.mp4)

I'm trying to use the HD stream extractor and MeGUI is telling me that it can't write to a network location. My work station only has a small SSD. Is there anything I can do about this?

No, but it looks like it doesn't matter since eac3to won't work over a network either. I posted about this in the eac3to thread. I'm surprised that this hasn't come up before. I just mapped the drive I'm working with.

I am running under WinXP if it matters.
I am getting the exact same error with the latest mp4box, running Windows 7 64-bit. It only happens to me when the final file-size is projected to be nearly (but not quite) 4 GB.

In addition to the error above, I also sometimes see this (very similar) error as well:

I am running the latest everything from the dev server update.
I've hit the same error, same environment.

I've had several movies hit this error and I noticed the pattern.

Any time the video exceeds 2GB, the error occurs. All the isotmp files reach either a size of 2,097,128 KB or 2,097,109 KB and then crash MP4box like clockwork.

There is nothing wrong with the streams. Using a separate mp4box install, I was able to mux the streams and the result plays fine on my PS3.

Edit: oh, and you can't replace MeGUI's mp4box.exe with the one installed with this other program. I tried and got an immediate error.

Also, I tried to revert back to a previous version of MP4box and it also errors out on me.

I believe you need the whole mp4box folder.
I tried replacing the mp4box in MeGUI with RipBot264's by replacing the whole mp4box folder without getting an immediate error.
I didn't tried muxing file of size bigger than 2GB though.

MP4Box build has been changed today. with this build I cannot reproduce anymore the problems mentioned above. But with all the GPAC problems in the last weeks I assume we will find new (or old) problems soon.

Code:
0.3.5.26
- [Audio Downmix] enhanced avisynth script in order to cover more input channel configurations. Patch by tebasuna51
0.3.5.25
- [MKVMuxer] changed log output language to English
- [x264] added option to disable the 64 bit mode of x264
- [x264] in case of a problem with the 64 bit mode of x264 it will be disabled (and not automatically enabled again)

Anyone have an idea on what is going on with the audio encode input tab? I posted this question a few days ago with no response so I assume its just me but could use some ideas. Now using MeGui 0.3.5.26 and still same problem.

When attempting to enque the audio encode portion of a job, dts or ac6 to ac3, 5.1, 448kbps using either ffmpeg or aften, when I click enque, MeGUI errors with the message: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' Tried several different files and they all do this when trying to enque the audio job. Used to work fine prior to 0.3.5.24 so not sure what changed.

I can still convert the audio using eac3to via the stream extract tool but not from the input tab. Any ideas what's going on?

Bug reports (and feature requests) may be overlooked here so if somebody really need/want the attention then the report has to be created in the SourceForge tracker.

Please post the log file. Also I assume that it has nothing to do with changes between 0.3.5.23 and 0.3.5.24 (please try it with extracting this file into your MeGUI directory http://megui.org/auto/megui-core_0_3_5_23.zip)

The file in Input tab must be a standard DTS or AC3.

If you have the audio track inside a container (mkv, m2ts, ts) is always better use eac3to with the stream extractor tool.
