How to autosave x264info when using bat?

[stillwater]

I encode using bat files.
I wonder how to autosave x264info when using bat?
I know that megui can save jobs' x264info automatically in log files.
Is there any way to save x264info in bat automatially when encoding complete?
If so, pls tell me how can I do that. Thanks a lot.

x264.exe [options] 2> logfile.txt

That wouldn't show the progress indicator or the other output in the command prompt though.

Right click top bar of command line window... EDIT -> SELECT ALL.
Right click top bar of command line window... EDIT -> COPY.

Paste into the document of your choice.

I mention clicking the top bar of the window because if you just click anywhere, it will deselect your selection.

Edit: if your window is closing on you, put "pause" as the last line in your batch file.

Alternately, you can right click, Select All in the main window, then hit enter to copy your selection to the clipboard.

I wanna try this, but a quick question first: what kind of a processing penalty if any might result from using this w/x264?

Negligible, really...

Wow, logger rocks LoRd_MuldeR!

Thanks for such a versatile tool (and not just for encoding stuff!)

Nope. I do not accept any donations currently...

Then *big pat on the back* and keep up the good work, this little piece of code is a true gem

Thanks again,

Question: Does anybody know how to redirect the stderr of an application to another application's stdin - using the Windows command prompt ???

I know that I can redirect the stderr to a file using programe.exe 2> stderr.txt, but is there something similar to program1.exe | program2.exe for the stderr?

Well, I tried program1.exe 2| program2.exe and it didn't throw an error. But still only the stdout stream was redirected, not the stederr stream...

Try program1.exe 2>&1 | program2.exe
