  1. When I start encoding with megui and x264, megui hides the command line output of x264.exe.

    I would like to see that output to check the bitrate info in realtime, while encoding.

    Is it possible ? Or the only option is to not use megui, but to use x264 directly, with cmd.exe ?

    What do you mean by check the bitrate info in realtime ?

    The commandline doesn't show this (so even if you can see the commandline used it won't help you), but some x264.exe builds show the progress bitrate , filesize, elapsed and projected time for encoding, filesize, etc... as encoding progresses is that what you mean? If so, you need to use x264.exe

  3. MeGui has no option to show the command line progress output of x264 atm.

    But I don't understand why this command works:
    Code:
    cd /D D:\InstalledApps\MeGUI\tools\x264\x264.exe
    start /low x264.exe --level 3.1 --preset slow --tune film --crf 22 --output "E:\h264 stream\disc2.264" "E:\source\disc2\VIDEO_TS\VTS_01_1.avs"
    but this one does not work:
    Code:
    start /low "D:\InstalledApps\MeGUI\tools\x264\x264.exe" --level 3.1 --preset slow --tune film --crf 22  --output "E:\h264 stream\disc2.264"  "E:\source\disc2\VIDEO_TS\VTS_01_1.avs"

  5. use:
    Code:
    start /low "" "g:\Hybrid\x264.exe" --level 3.1 --preset slow --tune film --crf 22  --output "H:\Output\test.264"  "H:\TestClips&Co\test.avi"
    the first content inside "..." will be interpreted as the title.

    Code:
    Starts a separate window to run a specified program or command.
    
    START ["title"] [/D path] [/I] [/MIN] [/MAX] [/SEPARATE | /SHARED]
          [/LOW | /NORMAL | /HIGH | /REALTIME | /ABOVENORMAL | /BELOWNORMAL]
          [/NODE <NUMA node>] [/AFFINITY <hex affinity mask>] [/WAIT] [/B]
          [command/program] [parameters]
    
        "title"     Title to display in window title bar.
        path        Starting directory.
        B           Start application without creating a new window. The
                    application has ^C handling ignored. Unless the application
                    enables ^C processing, ^Break is the only way to interrupt
                    the application.
        I           The new environment will be the original environment passed
                    to the cmd.exe and not the current environment.
        MIN         Start window minimized.
        MAX         Start window maximized.
        SEPARATE    Start 16-bit Windows program in separate memory space.
        SHARED      Start 16-bit Windows program in shared memory space.
        LOW         Start application in the IDLE priority class.
        NORMAL      Start application in the NORMAL priority class.
        HIGH        Start application in the HIGH priority class.
        REALTIME    Start application in the REALTIME priority class.
        ABOVENORMAL Start application in the ABOVENORMAL priority class.
        BELOWNORMAL Start application in the BELOWNORMAL priority class.
        NODE        Specifies the preferred Non-Uniform Memory Architecture (NUMA)
                    node as a decimal integer.
        AFFINITY    Specifies the processor affinity mask as a hexadecimal number.
                    The process is restricted to running on these processors.
    
                    The affinity mask is interpreted differently when /AFFINITY and
                    /NODE are combined.  Specify the affinity mask as if the NUMA
                    node's processor mask is right shifted to begin at bit zero.
                    The process is restricted to running on those processors in
                    common between the specified affinity mask and the NUMA node.
                    If no processors are in common, the process is restricted to
                    running on the specified NUMA node.
        WAIT        Start application and wait for it to terminate.
        command/program
                    If it is an internal cmd command or a batch file then
                    the command processor is run with the /K switch to cmd.exe.
                    This means that the window will remain after the command
                    has been run.
    
                    If it is not an internal cmd command or batch file then
                    it is a program and will run as either a windowed application
                    or a console application.
    
        parameters  These are the parameters passed to the command/program.
    
    NOTE: The SEPARATE and SHARED options are not supported on 64-bit platforms.
    
    Specifying /NODE allows processes to be created in a way that leverages memory
    locality on NUMA systems.  For example, two processes that communicate with
    each other heavily through shared memory can be created to share the same
    preferred NUMA node in order to minimize memory latencies.  They allocate
    memory from the same NUMA node when possible, and they are free to run on
    processors outside the specified node.
    
        start /NODE 1 application1.exe
        start /NODE 1 application2.exe
    
    These two processes can be further constrained to run on specific processors
    within the same NUMA node.  In the following example, application1 runs on the
    low-order two processors of the node, while application2 runs on the next two
    processors of the node.  This example assumes the specified node has at least
    four logical processors.  Note that the node number can be changed to any valid
    node number for that computer without having to change the affinity mask.
