Im having a problem where it will act like its working, (takes up cpu/time/etc) but i dont get an output file. It was working, then it just stopped, and the only difference between this file and others that i have encoded is that this time i let frpas record sound as well as video.
Do the following:
1. Turn on "debug mode."
2. Start the encoding, then close the black window.
3. Edit the "autogenerated.cmd" file with notepad, and add the line "pause" to the end.
4. Double click the "autogenerated.cmd" file to run it.
5. Note any errors once its finished and post those errors here.
There have been problems on some computers encoding files with sound.

Why are you all using the "sooo" modern .mkv container? I don't like using VLC for playing back, especially on my Mac.
I would like to use the video player of my own choice and that means:
Pleeeaaaase, use the official mp4 container if you are encoding with h.264. ;)
What benefits offer .mkv containers regarding EVE related h.264 movies? ù Ok, then please use mp4. Or is it just ignorance? :)

o/ DS,
got a few questions you might be able to anwser:
- I have been trying to encode a video I made, but after the process is done, the video is nowhere to be found. The video input and output files are located on a different HDD (which is in a raid setup, shouldn't matter but info = info). The temp dir is empty, a full search of my pc doesn't find the filename I set (I tried this a couple times coz I was thinking I was going mad). Just now I cut a section of the movie and put it on the same physical disk the H.264 tool is on, encoded it without a problem giving me a nice output file. Any clues?
- In my projects I like having a few seconds of black movie (the standard adobe premiere black movie inserts, changed in length only) to get my title, credits and certain transitions. The encoder seems to remove them, while just setting the music to start when the picture starts. Black movies within the movie end up really weird (hickups). Is there a cmd line I need to run to get rid of this problem .. cos this really frells up the movies, check em out for yourself: before encoding and after encoding.
The second question is obviously the most important one, if that can't be done I have to change the way I edit my movies (which would really suxor for the stuff I have been working on till now).
Thnx in advance and no offense intended with the movies :)
All the stuff above does not necessarily reflect my corp, my alliance or even me..

Nice encoder. Frapsed one fight at half res (single core  ), threw it into movie maker  , ran it at the highest settings then put that into the h.264 (204mg > 20mg \o/) Test Render .
In all honesty i'm not that fussed with the res, it means anyone can run it (and even if i could have frapsed it at full screen anyone watching it on a smaller monitor wouldn't have been able to read the txt anyway). What i am curios about however is are there any de blockers or sharpening tools around that could improve the visual quality further i.e. something i could either throw this .mvk in or the .wmv (vain hope  )?
If the blocking was in the original WMV, it means your original encode is bad. If the blocking is in the output MKV, it means you need to choose a higher quality mode if you want to get rid of the blocking.
Middle of the night posts ftl  . What i ment was is there any way to make the text readable? [Both encodes were done at the highest settings, .mvk with sharpen enabled, though my res 1680x1050 isn't a multiple of 16...]

I'm using MKV for a few reasons:
1. If someone has the ability to play back H.264, they have the ability to play back MKV, almost for sure. Quicktime does not properly support all of H.264, and so using MP4 is totally useless in that regard. Apple intentionally made their player support limited features of H.264 in order to create a limited "sub-standard" for their own use. In terms of hardware players, using MP4 isn't going to help because there are dozens of other settings that have to be set just right for those to be able to play it. And I doubt anyone wants to watch EVE videos on their HD-DVD player.
2. MKV is, as far as I know, the official container of the Scene for DVD rips, which means it will probably become the de facto standard over the next few years.
3. Its open source!

The second one is probably caused by using Premiere's "Optimize stills" which seems to to break a lot of encoders.
The first one is the strange problem I've been trying to hunt down. In the meantime, turn on Debug Mode so that the temporary files aren't deleted. Also you can save the sound as a separate file and input it itself rather than getting the sound from the original source.

Your obvious problem is your video isn't 1680x1050; its half that. The text is unreadable no matter what. It looks like you FRAPSed at half resolution, which guarantees that your viewers will be unable to read any of the text. To be exact, its because FRAPS "resizes" by just taking every other pixel in both the horizontal and vertical directions. Good for speed, atrocious for quality. Don't use half-resolution FRAPS.

3. Its open source!
1. I have the ability to play MKV on my Mac, but I can't use the player of my choice. I have to use VLC for that and that's no Mac-only problem. It doesn't matter if "Quicktime" does or does not support all of H.264, it's all about the non-Apple MP4 and MKV container formats, not the compression. Don't mix that up. This is the reason why it's not useless if you use the official container for h.264 compressed videos. At this point I don't see any reasons for the MKV container. No benefits, just a lil bit more of incompatibility.
2. MP4 is an _official standard_(Apple's own container format is called "Quickime"), MKV format is a wannabe-official standard in a few years as you mentioned.
3. Be serious, that's a good reason? ù Hm.
However, if you want that your video will be watched, you should use the containers (and at this point I 'm not talking about the codec) what your "standard customers" are able to play back without getting new software, plugins and stuff. It's not difficult to use standards. :)
Apart from this mistake, good work.

H.264, with the settings the program uses, DOES NOT WORK WITH QUICKTIME. Using .mp4 would not change that. And Quicktime is the only major software player that supports MP4 and not MKV. Since it cannot play the files in any case, that doesn't matter.
And VLC is only one of plenty of players that supports MKV; any libavcodec/libavformat-based player supports it. Meaning basically every reasonably popular free video playback solution. For mac, mplayer is the best, much better than VLC.
I'll say it again: Quicktime cannot play back the videos my program produces even if you remux it into an mp4 container. Since Quicktime is the only major program that plays H.264 internally but doesn't support MKV, there is no reason to use MP4.
Also, if you want, you can very very easily remux the output video to MP4 using MP4Box. It takes about 15 seconds.
If I chose MP4 as the default container format, here's what would happen:
1. Quicktime, by default, plays back .MP4.
2. "THE VIDEO WON'T WORK ON MY COMPUTER! Quicktime pops up and says it can't play it."
3. Lots of angry people.
Since I prefer my program not to generate lots of angry people, I'm not going to use MP4.

MKV does work on my Mac with Quicktime, just without sound. Is that an "own H.264 settings" problem? As far as I know I never had problems with other major codecs and formats (on both platforms, Mac and Windows).
However, if you want to share videos, you have the decision between compatibility (= more ppl watching the videos without getting angry because they have tons of plugins/tools/players to search, download and install, remux and stuff) and your personal interests. Seems that you prefer the last one.
I will stop discussing, it's pointless, I guess. You're right. Keep up the good work. :)

Now that is really strange, and makes little sense... the sound is AAC, which is actually Apple's official format. Now that is just really strange.

I've considered adding mp4box into the package and having a radio button choice between MKV and MP4.
However, you'll have to convince Chribba to allow the .mp4 extension on EVE-Files also. Honestly its not a bad idea at all to give the end user a choice, especially since I am using AAC audio; the primary reason for MKV being so widely used is because MP4 doesn't support Dolby Digital audio (AC3). And since I'm not using AC3, I might as well give the option for MP4.

Hi,
as promised, I gave it a try and got everyting up to 1920x1072 in my (first) new movie.
Mostly thx to your nifty tool (put you in the credits  )!
http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=575998
I have posted multiple settings:
Very High:
Autoencoder on maximum quality and medium file size, base file was a 12GB losless Avi, no resizing.
High:
Autoencoder on medium quality and medium file size, base file was a 12GB losless Avi, no resizing.
Medium:
Autoencoder on high quality and medium file size, base file was a 12GB losless Avi, resized at 72%.
Low:
Autoencoder on low quality and medium file size, base file was a 12GB losless Avi, resized at 60%.
Even on the lowest setting it still readable (just).
But on the highest it almost looks like my original fraps 99% .
Greetz,

Weird discussion, the used codec features don't fully work in quicktime but you demand a mp4 container for playing it in quicktime more easily.

Well one possibly useful feature is that I could add the --level 41 flag to the stream and allow an MP4 container, which would allow it to be played on a Playstation 3 or Xbox 360, if I recall correctly. But who watches EVE videos on a console anyways?

This worked exceptionally well in terms of compression - the windows media file I got through Adobe Premiere's compression was about 560 megs, this spat out 155 megs. I do have an issue though: Not only is the music completely off by as much as 10-15 seconds, the end of my movie plays itself twice, and it cuts some of the transition screens in the process. Any suggetions? I'm going to run it through your encoder a few more times and see I can get something close to what I want.
I don't mind sacrificing the sound-sync a little for that much less space, but some of the transitions go by so quickly I can't even read them.
Great job otherwise DS.

I have seen that problem before and it is usually caused by the "Optimize Stills" option in Premiere. If that isn't the problem the only thing I can think of is to reinstall AVIsynth--the output should be frame-accurate to the original, so any difference makes no real sense at all.
I've seen tihs problem before and it is really a tough one because it makes so little sense computationally.

Edit: Nvm, first question answered.
Second question: I edited a small Fraps video with Vegas and rendered it with Sony Vegas using the DivX codec, then I run it through the Encoder. So far so good, the file runs and I can see it. I send it to a friend, and when he tries to run it, he just sees black. That's fine, he probably doesn't have the codecs, he downloads both Xvid and CCCP but no dice.
I send it to another friend, someone who also edits videos and has all the codecs, and the same problem. Black screen.
Any ideas?

One small doubt (that was probably answered in another page already, but meh ), if I'm not interested in modifying a file in Vegas or any other editor, can I run the uncompressed FRAPS avi (2.5 gigs) through this and still get a decent size? Or will I have to run it through an editor, compress it into xvid or something like that, and then run it through the encoder?
You can run the uncompressed FRAPS through it; in fact, if you compress it in something else first, it'll make the result worse, not better.

This is a problem with the codec setups on some computers; the AutoEncoder fails to properly read the audio, and as a result fails.
The solution is to input the audio separately from a standalone wav file.

Maybe a stupid question, but do you think the audio problem i have with the AutoEncoder could be because i have the main audio source to be HD Audio instead of AC97 in the BIOS on my motherboard?
Also the audio is enabled with HD Audio in my BIOS now.
Any idea about that Dark Shikari

Shouldn't affect it: here's how it works.
Normally when playing back a video:
File -> Demuxer -> Audio + Video
Audio -> Decoder -> DirectShow -> Hardware -> Speakers
Video -> Decoder -> DirectShow -> Hardware -> Screen
When using AviSynth, like in the AutoEncoder, to extract the sound:
File -> Demuxer -> Audio + Video
Audio -> Decoder -> DirectShow -> File
Video -> Decoder -> DirectShow -> Nowhere
Technically, this should work exactly the same as it does before. There are some possibilities though...
1. Try installing the VCM codec.
2. What version of Windows Media Player do you have installed?
If we can find a step that fixes it, I can put it up for everyone to know.

1. Try installing the VCM codec.
2. What version of Windows Media Player do you have installed?
If we can find a step that fixes it, I can put it up for everyone to know.
1. The Windows Media Video 9 VCM Codec is installed, and it have been that for like 1 year now
2. I'm using Windows Media Player 11

Weird. My two computers, both of which work, have WMP 11 and WMP 10, respectively.

1. Turn on "debug mode."
2. Start the encoding, then close the black window.
3. Edit the "autogenerated.cmd" file with notepad, and add the line "pause" to the end.
4. Double click the "autogenerated.cmd" file to run it.
5. Note any errors once its finished and post those errors here.
There have been problems on some computers encoding files with sound.
I'm having the same issue. Turned on debugger and pasted it below. This is after I re-rendered using the Huffyuv codec. (previous to that I used zero compression through Sony Vegas, gave me a 70 gig file which wouldn't encode.)

Now that is strange, temp.avs can't even be found (or wasn't created).
Well since I'm not the coder, all I can really suggest you do is use a separate input audio file--this solves 100% of problems in my experience.

Hmm im noticed it some times too. I cant really reproduce this error, but it happens :>
I will take a closer look and get in touch with Dark Shikari to push a new version.
Maybe i will release the Source Code too, to fix and improve my messy code :) by other skilled Delphi coders. :)

I also have some commandline changes that should be made, so IM me (I'm Dark Shikari on AIM, not on EVE as much lately due to college) and we can finish up a new version that doesn't suck as much.
