x264 cli doesn't want to start

gizmo27 · 12th August 2008, 11:27

hello

Using GKMod with x264 cli, this one doesn't want to start : only until the r649 and not after
The command line is good I 've verified it.

Why ?

What is the reason ?

buzzqw · 12th August 2008, 11:41

please post the command line before and after

Ok it not as easier as it looks like :
the command line is the following :

Code:

F:\x264-CLI_r928\x264.exe --progress --thread-input -B 1378 
-p 1 --stats "statsfile.pass" -A "p8x8,b8x8" -b 2 --direct auto --subme 5
--me "hex" -o NUL 1.avs

In the delphi source, there's only the command line without the red parts you can see before.

These parts are added at the encoding time, by this code :

Code:

ExecuteAndWait(ExtractShortPathName(EncExe) +current_job.cmdenc+ ' -o NUL "'+JobData.Input+'"', True, True);

current_job.cmdenc is only the command line without the red parts

But I don't understand : it works until the r649 and not after.
Why ? I don't know.

-A was chanced in --partitions

-A still works, it is the short alias for --analyse or --partitions. Where did you download the new build from? Is any information reported when it fails to start?

When I write manually in DOS :

Code:

F:\x264-CLI_r928\x264.exe --progress --thread-input -B 1378 -p 1 --stats "statsfile.pass" -A "p8x8,b8x8" -b 2 --direct auto --subme 5
--me "hex" -o NUL D:\NIAGARA_MASTER_SERIES\VIDEO_TS\niagara.avs

It puts "error : no input file"

Why ?

Sharktooth · 14th August 2008, 11:29

does the file exists?
is avieynth installed?
etc...

gizmo27 · 14th August 2008, 11:33

yes the file exists and yes avisynth is installed

Sharktooth · 14th August 2008, 11:34

can the "user" read from that folder D:\.......?

buzzqw · 14th August 2008, 11:48

and opening the script with virtualdub show no error ?

BHH

gizmo27 · 14th August 2008, 12:11

no

or it's my pc which is out

gizmo27 · 14th August 2008, 13:48

ok it's not a computer problem, I've made the command line shorter and it works.

Probably cause of the compilation : I've specified "PAnsiChar", so...

I have an idea: You didn't put "D:\NIAGARA_MASTER_SERIES\VIDEO_TS\niagara.avs" in parenthesis. Your posted CLI doesn't have it.
