Xvid4PSP 5.1 doesn't encode H264 videos

[whatever911]

Hi. For some reason, I was able to load and encode H264 videos just fine yesterday, but I couldn't today.

When I loaded a H264 video file, it says "Caching: attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that the other memory is corrupt."

I went on Google and searched around but couldn't find any good solutions. So I uninstalled Xvid4PSP and re-installed the latest version, which is 5.1. But the problem still persists.

I thought I may need to update my codecs so I installed all the latest codecs for both video and audio.

This time, I was able to load H264 videos, but a new problem arose: only audio was converted. Here's the error log I got from trying to encode a H264 video file:

Please help me. Thank you very much.

it sounds like you should do a ram memory test. something like the bootable iso at http://www.memtest.org/

[whatever911]

I ran the Memory Diagnostic Tool (windows 7 64-bit) and there was no problems with the memory.

I'm able to load xivd videos, but not H264 videos at high bitrates and resolutions. This is really weird.

[aedipuss]

weird. have you tried a different version of xvid4psp to see if it's a programming error in that version? i'd try the current beta as it's most up to date.

[whatever911]

I think it's the program. I have tried different fifth versions, but it seems only version 6.0.3 Daily 2377 works for me. Do you know how to add subtitles for version 6? I can't find it anywhere. This one looks fancy but kinda hard to use.

I don´t use Xvid4PSP. But maybe the problem is, that source file is in an avi-container. This caused me various problems with other programs, because of splitter.
Maybe you can try to demux the avi, and then mux it into a mp4 container. I use mp4box for that, and it helps a lot.

Good luck !

@NoBuddy: Thanks but that doesn't work either

Another weird thing is that I'm able to load those H264 videos with VirtualDub and encode them, but not in Xvid4PSP. I think this has something to do with the recent windows updates I did.

try a system restore back to when it all worked
PS - You're not allowed to cross post here...better erase your other post and insert "deleted"

[whatever911]

A system restore?? But... but I have done so many windows updates ... is that the only way out here? What if it doesn't work still?
