I also noticed that the FFMpeg encoder cannot use the full power (CPU usage at only 40% or so) of my quad core Phenom II X4 B45 (545 with the remaining 2 cores unlocked) while the MEncoder encoder can (CPU usage 100%).Ī final question : I notice that the installation program for 0. I have not yet had time to see if the encodes are successful (that is if the converted video files work), or if these settings will work on my other computers running Vista 圆4 or Server 2003 圆4. Start the encode -> Success, the encode finally can start. Start the encode -> Program does nothing, again! Another program restart, this time I also unchecked the default tick in "Encoder" and manually choose MEncoder (or FFMpeg). I then restarted the program, unchecked the default tick in "Source" in the Video section and manually choose MEncoder. Using defaults in the Video section, any attempt to encode my 720p MKV files to H.264 caused the program to do nothing, just as in the previous versions. use MEncoder as the default video source? If so, and if it is working (in my case at least) why change it in 0.7.2.xxxx, where it may not work (in my case at least)?īy the way, I just downloaded the latest version 0. What are the formats that MEncoder may not handle well, may I ask? Does 0. In the new versions, MediaCoder will attempt to use AviSynth to decoding several formats which MEncoder may not handle well.

so it is not too serious an issue but I would really want to know why 0.7.2.x does not work. work while every version of 0.7.2 fail? Have anyone else encountered the same problem? Every time I have to uninstall and return to 0.ĭisabling the test phase as suggested by some people does not work. On Windows XP the 32-bit versions also failed. I have tried this on 3 separate computers running Windows Vista 圆4, Windows XP 圆4 and Windows Server 2003 圆4. The program simply sits there and does nothing. Why do I not upgrade to a newer version? For the very simple fact that whenever I install a newer version (all 0.7.2.x) and attempt to use it to do the above conversion, the process simply does not start after I give the instruction to start. I use a fixed bitrate for both video and audio.

running on Windows Server 2003 圆4 to convert some 720p and 1080p MKV video files I have to H.264 MP4 files. I have been using the 圆4 version of Mediacoder 0.
