Just as you discovered with staxrip, you can create your own avisynth or vapoursynth script invoking the source filter and other filters that you like. Then the script can be opened in Simple Launcher.

Oh, Hi DG, (are you following me?...lol)...yeah, not really the answer(s) to my question, but nice to know.

I'd just like to know how to update some of the key components, not necessarily "custom" scripts. (unless that's a clue)

For example, where is the L-Smash source, when using this app ??

Cheers

My understanding is that it uses the input capabilities of x264.exe and x265.exe. They are built with understanding of (for example) MKV input. It won't be easy to change those things, which is why Avisynth/Vapoursynth input is the way to go for such flexibility.

Sincerely,
your stalker

Nice

OK, well, I might have good play around with it the next couple of days, and see if I can make any sense of it.

I was out riding my dirt bike today, so I need a rest.

Oh no, pop up window with "Your version of Simple x264 Launcher is more than 6 month old!" is back.

@LoRd_MuldeR: Could you make a new update for us? Thanks.

BTW: "Update web-server" doesn't work.

Hi, I can't seem to get this to work again for some reason. It's telling me this: FAILED TO DETERMINE VERSION INFO !!!

I switched both x264 64 bit with jpsdr's tmod https://github.com/jpsdr/x264/releases and a HEVC 64 bit build ver 3.5.0.20 from DJATOM https://github.com/DJATOM/x265-aMod/releases as I didn't wanna use the one that's included with it. Using the portable version btw.

I didn't change anything else. Simply refuses to encode using 64 bit now. This has been happening for the past 2-3 days. It was just working fine for the last couple of months till then when I stumbled upon this seeking to replace MeGUI with a faster gui that would create and keep the index of lsmash now this. Leaving me going back to my ex, MeGUI, so I can continue to encode with those encoders as of course no issues in MeGUI with those encoders.

using the same script!

I tried the skip version from https://github.com/lordmulder/Simple...nd-line-syntax that didn't seem to work since I did place it in the custom parameter field. Dunno where to place it and according to this https://github.com/lordmulder/Simple...cher/issues/14 if I read it right it's not recommended, why?

Any help on why this is happening? What am I doing wrong?
The program works again when I place the original x264.exe and x265.exe back not surprisingly.


And that 6 month update thing is really annoying. Can't turn it off.

Could the author possibly include a feature where when you select the destination I can either type it in or copy and paste my folder location instead of the one it currently is using so it's faster? As I already mention I do tons of trim encodes then append them together and I do see it says something about a batch but I dunno how to do that.

Also, an option to keep jobs on the program as soon as they're on the program as I use tons of scripts with trim like MeGUI and I had a crash with the program adding new jobs while it was encoding and lost everything and had to redo them all... Also an option to not encode right after adding a job. And an option to move more than 1 job on the list up or down and to delete them as well instead of moving them 1 by 1. All could be a on/off toggle in the preference.

I really like this program a lot. Thanks for adding a pause when encoding. Never knew such a thing was possible of all my years encoding with MeGUI. Its neat! Hella lot faster than it too!


[EDIT] Seems downgrading to version 2.98 fixed the issue so far. Strange bug.

Hi
I would like to encode UHD video in x265 format (2pass).
I saw that two parameters ( --scenecut-aware-qp and --vbv-live-multi-pass) are specific for the 2pass.
is it possible to specify these options for the 2pass in simpleX264 ?
thks

Currently it is not possible to specify custom encoder options only for the second pass. Generally, except for "--pass", the exactly same options should be set for both passes.

So options that are allowed only in a second pass are something new

Latest release detected as malware

After having installed your latest x64 version (downloaded from github) on Monday, our company virus scanner Trend Micro interrupted your program's attempt to check if there is a newer version available.

The IT summary is attached in the three PNGs. 15 out of 67 hits; but the big ones like BitDefender, McAfee and Sophos are also classifying it as malicious.

Might be the "Predictive machine learning" causing havoc, but it could also be that the installer on github is really infected. Can you please double-check, if it contains what you expect to be therein?


You provide a cryptographic signature there, but I do not know how to check the installer integrity with these files. Any hint for this?

Is this change maybe the evil that triggers the scanners?

On my private computer your latest version does not trigger an alarm with Microsoft Defender, but it was not installed from github, but updated automatically from within your program.

And btw, thanks for your program and the integration of 10bit and x265 long ago. It still covers most of my needs on a regular basis!

Itll be a false positive.

"Unknown threats, Predicative Machine Learning" says it all

(it's a fancy way of the "antivirus" vendor saying: If we can't find a real threat, then we make up one, 'cause well... somehow we need to justify those license fees you payed for our crapware)


Did you consider verifying the signature that I provide along with all of my release binaries in order to check the integrity and authenticity of the file you downloaded ???

If I do this, then the result looks like: https://i.imgur.com/lXAWtYS.png – which should answer your question

Yes, I'm so evil that I even wrote my own program (based on OpenSSL and released under a Public Domain license) for signing/verifying my release binaries

Looks like this here, using the .sig2 file:
https://imgur.com/a/qSxbgxo

Do I understand this correctly, that I am missing your public key? I however cannot find it on a key server searching for "mulder2@gmx.de". Is there something I need to do with the .rsa file you also offer in the download section?

[Edit]
Ok, I found your public key on www.muldersoft.com. Maybe you can add a link "Public Key" on the top of your page? I didn't expect the key down there after all the 3rd party tools. :-)

I trusted your key based on the same ID, that I saw on your screenshot above. Is the fingerprint published anywhere?

Is the .rsa file only useful in combination with your CodeSign tool? Kleopatra could not import the RSA key published on muldersoft.com, neither saved as .pem nor as .der file.

Ah, and the downloaded file passed the verification, so it was not hacked for some time. So the virus scanner alarm was a false positive.

Also here and here. Anyway, maybe I will make the public keys more prominent on the website

It's on the website, right above the actual PGP key outline

But be aware that the website shows the full fingerprint, whereas the Kleopatra screenshot only shows a "truncated" fingerprint (last 16 hex digits).

The RSA public key is provided in the standard OpenSSL/PEM format. This is not a GPG key/certificate though, so GnuPG/Kleopatra cannot import it. The OpenSSL command-line tool can work with such files:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.1.1/man1/rsa.html

It's a "raw" RSA signature value, encoded in the Base64 format. Probably the easiest way to verify it is by using the CodeSign tool. OpenSSL should work too:
https://pagefault.blog/2019/04/22/ho...using-openssl/

(though OpenSSL's "dgst" command requires the signature value in binary form for verification, not Base64, so you'd have to decode it first, e.g. using OpenSSL's "enc" command)

This can only be explained with my black&white colour blindness ... :-)

Thanks for your explanations, I will try them when being back at work.
