I'm still using the 2.60 (https://www.videohelp.com/software/Avisynth) version of Avisynth and really didn't chance anything in my configuration.

The problem is the following. I can't re-encode any of my commercial released blu-rays anymore. It only outputs about 21-25 mb and the encodes all come out as this mess:

any help would be appreciated.

Well, you have to keep in mind that Simple x264 Launcher is just a GUI front-end that invokes x264 with your Avisynth script. No more and no less.

The included x264 binaries were not even changed in the last two releases of my Simple x264 Launcher package. The last time that the x264 binaries were updated was in version 2.92 [2019-07-22].

So, IMO, there is nothing in the last (or second last) release of Simple x264 Launcher that could possibly have changed encoding with x264 and Avisynth input!

You didn't replace the x264 binaries manually, right?

I can only speculate about the cause of your problem. Might be that the Avisynth process crashed; might be that the x264 process crashed. Hard to tell, since your screenshot excludes the most important part of the log – the very end.

It would be helpful if you posted a complete log of your encoding task that shows everything from start to finish...

Anyway, if you open the very same Avisynth script that you are trying to encode in Simple x264 Launcher in, e.g., VirtualDub, does it open and "play" (seek) properly all the way to the end without problem?
