And it seems that my player was reading the subtitle files from the same directory, because the name was the same for both files. That would explain why I thought it was working earlier. I just have to rename my output mp4 to something different and the subs are no longer picked up externally.

I get an error when trying to pass a VIDEO_TS.ifo file to autox264.

offtopic:
I'm just setting up a linux box for x264 encoding, so I"m new to this. I'm looking for single app encoding, so I'm also playing with handbrake.

Thanks

your mencoder build is probably outdated
please add the job to queue, then paste here the job
maybe b-adapt or psy-rd

buzz,

Sorry for not explaining it better. My initial problem was that I selected a VIDEO_TS.ifo file I had previously ripped to my hd. Then it autocropped the enitre frame, taking 720 from the top and 480 from the right. I have now manually cropped it am running an encode. We'll see what happens.

This may have *too* many options for me as I'm a noob to x264 encoding.

Is it possible for me to select a mkv container instead of mp4?

[buzzqw]

autox264 "actually" support only mp4

maybe in a future update i will support even mkv

BHH

[buzzqw]

update windows AND linux version (same link as above)
a little better resizing
added mkv support
added info on mencoder build used

BHH

[buzzqw]

(actually for windows.. later for linux)

added support for MeGui X264 profile's

in the same place as autox264.exe create a folder "profiles", copy in "profiles" all xml files from megui x264 profiles's

BHH

[buzzqw]

windows update
rearranged gui
added support for saving program path

linux build will follow later

BHH

is it open source?

[buzzqw]

yes, gpl v3

source code, in purebasic, is avaiable on request

BHH

[buzzqw]

update the linux build too

BHH

Sweet!! Thanks for the MeGUI profiles support. I can't wait to get back home after break and play with this thing on my 64-bit Sabayon build.

[buzzqw]

please report any errors

BHH

Thanks for the MeGUI presets addition. Why aren't the presets listed in alphabetical order in your drop down list?

[buzzqw]

.. maybe i must rework the parsing profile directory

EDIT: update the linux build, fixed the alphabetical order of profiles

BHH

[yeye69]

If I create a shortcut on the desktop and/or run autox264 from other directory than where autox264 installed, there is no profiles. This is a bug or a feature?

[buzzqw]

This is a bug or a feature?

it's look like a bug to me

windows or linux ?

Same issue here. Linux version, with Gnome desktop environment. If I make a launcher in the Gnome menu then I don't see the presets, if I run it from the directory I put the binary then the presets are there.

Thanks for fixing the preset drop down sort order! This is an awesome frontend!!

[buzzqw]

update the linux build

fixed not profiles found when lauching auto264 from a link (thanks to yeye69 and mocham)

[yeye69]

It works, thanks!

But I'm confusing with a cropping. If I want to omit crop values, do I put 0 in these values or width x height? I need some clarity on this question.
