Hi. I thought "XtraPack" meant readymade...
Not AT ALL, in fact (so, after the waste of time that "comes with it" and) AT LAAAST!,
I was — finally — able to rencode videos with none of the aggravatingly stubborn error msg's : "Encoding failed"!.., using the plugins, to output "AVC H.264 (and HEVC.265) + .aac .mp4's"
(that is, in order to avoid an intermediate ".avi" file, to be later converted to ".mp4" using "Avidemux" or "ffmpeg" standalone).
The error was due to: trying to recode the audio stream, using "ffmpeg.exe" (built-in "XtraPack").
Although I use command lines to "ffmpeg" reencode videos along with their audio stream with no problem at all, WITH "AVIUTL", it's another hell of a story...
I had to add "my own" "neroAacEnc.exe" to the "3rdparty" subfolder ; and even "lame.exe", whenever I want ".mp3" audio instead of ".aac" (also tried to add "faac.exe", but ignored).
[ On some forum, a user advises to install "QuickTime", a component I don't even want to think about, "thx". ]
Not exactly serious, that "XtraPack". And, if copyright problems come in the way ("neroAacEnc.exe"...), users could at least be warned straight "out of the box" — and guided towards a WORKING solution* —, IMHO anyway. Why let them waste so much time?
*Is anybody able to apply the "Please-correct-paths.txt" "advice"?
