Agree with the latest comment, and, furthermore, with a reachable developer who actually interacts with users in Doom9 forum, megui thread.

To be fair, the regular updates are in the Dev strand only - the stable strand has been at v2112 for quite some time - so you only need to be updating with the Dev updates if you need the bleeding-edge functionality. I think we should be very grateful for a tool that is under such frequent development and improvement rather than complaining about it!

As if in some fashion or trend,and constructors of such programs almost every week throw new version.Users should deal only uninstall the old version and new installations and not to work with them.I do not know what that is interesting,pointless...

(MEGUI 2087) something very wrong with AVS Script Creator - several crashes (whole megui) until making project .......

The only thing I found unintuitive on this program is how you can't just add a batch of video or avs files in one go, otherwise this is probably the best x264 batch encoder now. Go with handbrake if you want more straightforward one click solution.

Overall nice and kind of simple. Does the job. Decent layout. However, it just keeps amazing me how bad people are at making their programs intuitive. Why not have a button to simply start the encoding? First you gotta queue it, and then figure out that you have to start a worker.

Thanks for that information, I had a look and it does actually state thjat "The sound track (if present) also fades linearly to or from silence. The fading affects only the last num_frames frames of the video". In any event I had to chop the episodes and got them as close as I could. Apart from this, and it being sometimes a little complicated to use I love this programme, it does it's job spectacularly as far a s quality is concerned, I have no other complaints about this software other than that already mentioned.

Avisynth's "Fade" setting fades the VIDEO, NOT THE AUDIO. See http://avisynth.org/mediawiki/Fade . This is not a "bug" in MeGUI, nor a "bug" in any other program.
|
|||||||||||||||
I have checked for updates, every module is up to date as of today and I am still unable to get the fade oput for audio to work. It does not fade out the sound when I use the audio cutter to apply a cut to the audio of a ripped DVD made to a VTS file by MeGUI. Even after going through the stages of pointing to the original AC3 file, The Cut File and saving as the same or a new file, it makes no difference - it does not fade out at all, ever. basically it is useless to do this. The reason I need to do this is that the programmes I am converting from my original DVD set have end credits that last up to 8 minutes, the cut and fade is completely necessary as the main audio track fades out almost, before the end credit theme begins to play. If I did the conversion like this the audio would end abruptly and sound really bad. I am doing all this because I have a BD Player that can play MVK files with 5.1 sound from an external HDD, I am desperately attempting to make space on my shelves by encoding all my DVD series. This particular series, Band of Brothers, is the only one that has required this fading, and it does not work. The bug is obviously not fixed.

The best GUI for x264 out there. The only problem I have with this software is it is little buggy, the developers have however made it more stable than it ever was... Contains so many useful tools which work brilliantly, you can tweak a lot of settings with the GUI and if you want add more commands in the script. At first its little difficult to use but later it becomes very easy to use this tool. The AutoUpdate is excellent. Highly recommended, I use it as my default video encoding application as I am not comfortable with the x264 CLI..

It's true this tool is hard to used for beginner like me, but with guide/tutorial I can make a great video! with high quality and small size, made my pc HDD had more room:)

This All-In-One just keeps rolling on. There seems to be an un-shakeable bug when mux'n in a negative based AC3 file (e.g. - file Delay -14.ac3) causes the mp4 to double the video timecode. If you don't know how to use this proggy, it can be daunting at first but once you get you're feet wet you don't look back! One of all time go to tools!

This encoder just keeps just getting better, gotta give them a A+ on their support for fixing bugs and stuff.

I been using MeGUI to close to a year now. It is a GUI which contains the most features compared to the other GUI. It's like a toolbox with various tools that might come in handy some day, I wouldn't say I have gone through all the features though. Besides that, Zathor and the other devs of MeGUI(Sharktooth and more) have been actively updating the development build with more features and bug fixes. The devs responds promptly to the bugs reports posted in MeGUI's sourceforge bug tracker and MeGUI's doom9 forum thread. It does take some time to learn how to make use of the various tools and the workflow of MeGUI though. But once you learned how to use it, you can do wonders with it.:)

For some reason this new version won't mux..I get mux errors, yet when I use an older version 0.3.5 I have no mux problems at all..I can't figure this out...The only thing thats changed is the core program.Anyone else having this issue?

One min Tip: Use patched versions of x264 to get more.
|
|||||||||||||||
This is the best x264 GUI made. It's is not exactly for newcomers, but the use presets for various devices will be helpful. Quality of encodes is excellent. Various plugin filters can be loaded so you can tweak your settings to your heart content. You can also include your filters, giving you infinite customization options. Easy to use sliders give fine control over quality, and you can also directly edit in CLI parameters to your liking. Everyone wanting to advance their skills in encoding should use this tool. For noobs I recommend XMediaRecode, a very simple tool which is not only powerful but easy to use, with large number of Device profiles. Tip: Download MeGUI from here or Sourceforge page. In settings change update servers to development from stable to keep getting new updates. Don't worry these updates are very stable. Never experienced a glitch myself. !!!! I will soon post a beginner guide to MeGUI very soon !!!! Bing MeGUI Wiki page for a comprehensive coverage of this tool

Obviously the commenter below doesn't remember every post about dgdecode errors with avisytnh. Yes, there's a chance you will have the same programs installed on your system somewhere as the Megui 'tools' folder. The developers want to minimuze the complaints & confusion and they try by making sure you're using a compatibile version of the tool required. There's an option to turn off file backup when needed in the settings - whats so hard about that?? And all apps get deleted when/if you uninstall. IMO, this is truly the best GUI for encoding videos - period

This used to be a nifty tool, but it has worsen a lot. Apparently every tool used by MeGUI has to reside in the MeGUI\tools folder - even avisynth plugins, which means that I have to install a lot of stuff twice! You should stick back to the old fashion way where you can set up the path for each application and then use them as they are.

Kept telling me that avisynth is not installed although it was there in the usual program files folder.
|
|||||||||||||||
What happened? The new version has lots of blockiness in the final output file..I don't know if its the new presets or what, but even at the highest settings I get blocks galore...Going back to previous version

The new version has some speed to it!! Rock on---Now, who is going to write a new guide to tell us what all these fine tunings are? Ive searched but cannot find---Excellent version!
|
|||||||||||||||
I love this program- I just wish the megui guys could get cuda support in it somehow!! Excellent tool----

*the best*
