Half of bugs have caught, there was second half =))))

Use raw-aac in autoencode it`s bad idea - mp4box don`t understand raw-aac:

If you use ND AAC and raw aac this not work because ND AAC only work with MP4 container like CT AAC only work with raw aac and not with mp4 for now.

Yes i use Nero aac - but after autoencode files with "aac" extension (actually mp4 but with "aac" extension =)))
And mp4box don`t understand these files (MP4Box - 20060519).

That is bug in AutoEncoder because Nero MP4 can't have aac extension so not only mp4box reject that file, any player will reject too.

@dimzon Can you manage to use only mp4 containers for all Nero, CT, FAAC, because is more flexible

Thanks

Guys, please take a look at this http://img345.imageshack.us/my.php?i...ppening8qj.jpg

First look at what error MeGUI is giving & then look in the background & please tell me why is this happening?

Happend 3-4 times, everytime it gives the same error. Why can't it find it when it is right there.

using 0.2.3.2153 24 May 2006

just tested the CT AAC

and got an error,
Job completed successfully and deletion of intermediate files is activated
Starting job job1 at 20:59:34
calling setup failed with error Can't find encoder D:\Utils\AV\DVD\Me.GUI\tools/encaacplus\encaacplus.exe, please check settings!

so had to change the path to:
D:\Utils\AV\DVD\Me.GUI\tools\encaacplus\enc_aacPlus.exe
and it found it ok

I did some tests with neroencaac.exe in ABR mode. I can't mux when I do autoencode but I can do separate jobs to encode video (2passes) and other to mux audio (encoded previously with SNG 0.71) and video.

The final file is OK.

fixed in 0.2.3.2155

EDIT: to fix encaacplus.exe -> enc_aacPlus.exe you have to delete your settings.xml file and let megui recreate it... you obviously need to set the paths again.
you can also uninstall megui, clean the folder and reinstall from a newer version package.

Guys, please help me out here!! I've put the "enc_aacplus.dll" in appropriate folder, that is "C:\Program Files\megui\tools\encaacplus" where "enc_aacPlus.exe" is also present, but still meGUI gives me error "Can't find enc_aacplus.dll!"

What is going wrong here? Have I put "enc_aacplus.dll" in wrong place?

Here is the screenshot http://img345.imageshack.us/my.php?i...ppening8qj.jpg

you could always do as sharktooth suggests - as i had the same prob with the \ and / and his solution worked for me (shame the bitrate calc still hoosed)

Since winamp 5.22 You need nscrt.dll (from winamp\plugins folder) too

In 0.2.3.2155 when I create a job using x264 and neroaacenc (selecting MP4-AAC as the audio output) and use the autoencode button, it spits out a .aac file and not a .mp4 for the audio (even though it SEEMS to be muxing correctly now). If I create an audio job with the same settings and choose MP4-AAC as the output, it outputs a .mp4 file.

I'm still experiencing slow-downs in this version compared to previous ones. Let me know what I can provide that would help.

EDIT: I take that back...the .aac file it outputs is not playable at all, and the muxed video rightly will not playback the audio.
In fact, this is what MediaInfo 0.7.2.1 reports about the muxed file:

Audio #0
Codec : MPEG-2 Audio
Bit rate : 154 Kbps
Channel(s) : 5 channels
Sampling rate : 7 KHz

Contrary to what it says about the single .aac file (encoded from DVD AC3 audio):

Audio #0
Codec : AAC LC
Bit rate : 75 Kbps
Channel(s) : 2 channels
Sampling rate : 48 KHz
PlayTime : 1h 34mn

1.in megui, in x264 encoding, if i configure 2-pass-1st pass, i cannot enqueue it, as it says output is not mp4

2.if i chose a high bitrate, and do 2-pass automatic , then at 2nd pass it automatically lowers the bitrate, i see it in log.

are these bugs anyone else seen?

Slow-downs mean a considerable drop in encoding speed for both audio and video compared to previous versions. For example, with the HQ-slow profile on first pass turbo, I was getting over 15 fps with my P4 2.4GHz, and now on the same source with the same settings I get under 10 fps. Although it would seem this would be a x264 problem, but I don't see how.

The important thing right now is the issue with the audio.

0.2.3.2155.
When I select a profile for x264 and hit config, it sometimes loads the wrong profile for editing, so I must manually select the profile again to edit it. Certainly not a fatal bug, but it can be annoying in a list of many profiles
I've noticed this issue since .2153, maybe before.

0.2.3.2155

I have the same bug than sp@rrow with filesize and autoencode, my settings :
- Create an AviSynth script, i edit it to remove audio=false
- Set codec to x264, container mkv, profile AE-Standard
- AviSynth script as Audio Input, codec ND AAC Q=0.34, container MP4-AAC
- Autoencode with filesize = 140 MB

Desired video size after substracting audio size is 2224609Setting the desired bitrate of the subsequent video jobs to 14542 kbit/s
Full logfile can be found here

And in update window, controls are not resized with the window
