MeGUI doesn't create the content by itself, it only lets the required encoder (xvid_encraw) run.
There are two different FourCCs: a) which encoder created the video stream {xvid}, b) which decoder should be used to decode it {DX50|XVID|...}. VfW based editors and analysis tools usually refer to the first one, while DirectShow based PC software players and also consumer players should refer to the second. |

I just had a quick look into the code and it seems that the fourcc value is never used. So it must be a problem existing for years. Also I do not know how to change it. xvid encraw cannot change it (or is there a hidden switch?). Only "solution" is to hide this selection box in the GUI.

Now that's interesting ... did you plan to support a FourCC changer (which ever)? Or is it left from trying to use mencoder, the name base of MeGUI?
Anyway, merry Christmas. And thank you for your continuing efforts to provide the most useful video converter GUI. |

The Xvid Home Theatre profile automatically selects DX50 in MeGUI's encoder configuration so I expected that's what'd be used, but I can't think of a reason why it'd be necessary. I checked a bunch of old AVIs encoded with AutoGK (hardware compatibility option enabled) and the FourCC used was Xvid. For the record, of the two Bluray players in this house the Sony player refuses to play AVIs with a DX50 FourCC, but it'll play the same video fine if I change the FourCC to Xvid. The Samsung Bluray player will play either, so it appears of the two, an Xvid FourCC will be compatible with more players. Merry Xmas. |

Code:
2431 [Update] optional packages will only be downloaded/enabled if needed therefore during first use of such packages an online connection may be required if a package is not used in 60 days it will be disabled again currently the following packages are disabled by default (more to come): DGIndexNV, FFmpeg, MKVMerge, NeroAACenc, QAAC, x264, x264_10b, x265 DGIndexNV, NeroAACenc, QAAC and x265 still need to be enabled in the MeGUI settings NeroAACenc, QAAC and x265 need a restart of MeGUI so that the presets are enabled 2430 [OneClick] fixed unnecessary resize/crop in some cases (regression of 2357) 2429 [Update] version/date information will be shown also for disabled packages 2428 [Update] disabled packages are not hidden anymore Last edited by Zathor; 24th December 2013 at 17:31. |

Thanks Zathor. But I found small bug - qaac is always checked for ignoring updates in update windows even though it is enabled in External program settings. Also, it wont start encoding if some files are missing but not those needed for encoding.

I was messing around with various ways to de-interlace an NTSC video today and think I've found a problem with one of the scripts MeGUI creates. The de-interlacing method "TDeint (with EDI)" results in an error when previewing the video:
TDeint: Number of frames of edeint clip doesn't match that of input clip. I'm using MeGUI 2418 but I doubt it's changed since then. This is the script MeGUI creates when selecting "TDeint (with EDI)": edeintted = last.SeparateFields().EEDI2(field=-1) TDeint(order=-1,edeint=edeintted) After looking at the TDeint help file, I suspect it should be this: edeintted = last.SeparateFields().selecteven().EEDI2(field=-1) TDeint(order=-1,edeint=edeintted) The above applies to both the Interlaced and Partially Interlaced options. And..... I have a preview oddity when adding Decomb IVTC to a script. The bottom few rows of pixels turn green in MeGUI's Script Creator preview. TIVTC is fine, it's only Decomb IVTC. If I save the script and open it with MPC-HC, it displays normally. As it does when opening it with MeGUI's AVS Cutter or previewing the script after loading it into MeGUI's video section for encoding. The problem only seems to effect the Script Creator preview. Even more oddly, if I save a script containing Decomb IVTC and then use it as the source video for the script creator to create a new script, it'll display normally too. It seems to only happen when Decomb IVTC is being added to the script the Script Creator is creating. The row of green tends to flicker or flash while the video is playing.

No clue about the decomb part. EDIT: Decomb 5.24 fixes the problem Last edited by Zathor; 27th December 2013 at 13:37. |

Code:
2435 [Update] optional packages will only be downloaded/enabled if needed (part II) now all external programs are disabled by default 2434 [Update] an update to 2431+ will not disable DGIndexNV, NeroAACenc, QAAC or x265 if already enabled 2433 [AVS Script Creator] fixed "TDeint (with EDI)" (regression of 2305) |

Hi Zathor. Is it safe to disable all unneeded tools after 2435 update? One-Click encoder or file indexer wont start to encode using x264 and qaac if I disable and delete some of unneeded tools.

I assume that was an Avisynth 2.6 issue?
I have Avisynth 2.6 portable in MeGUI's root directory and Avisynth 2.58 installed, but I sometimes forget it means MeGUI is using a different Avisynth version. I guess that'd explain why the problem only occurred while opening video with MeGUI. Thanks. |
