Hybrid(Windows/Linux/Mac): Input -> x264/x265/Xvid/VP8/VP9

[ampersand]

Yeah, the audio was the problem. I demuxed the video, converted it with Hybrid and it went fine, 1700kbps. When I remuxed the converted video with the original audio it didn't fit.
I'm guessing it's because of this:
Analyzing video stream (0).
=> Detected stretch factor for track 0 is 4/5.
Prefering container (23.976) over stream frame rate (29.970)
Notice: Video stream raw and container lenght differ, other streched streams might exist.

I've no idea what to do, force 29.970 fps when converting?

Tell Hybrid to prefer the stream instead of the container fps
(Config->Internals->Prefer Original->Frame rate)

Thanks!

Just installed last version, but had some problems, attached both Report and debug files.
Seems to my scarce knowledge a kind of sintax problem ordering or finding vapoursynth scripts.

Thankds.

I don't really see the issue.
Debug output seems fine up to the moment when the queue was stopped during audio encoding.

Still having problems with version 2023.03.17.1,
running win10 updated and Nvidia driver 531.41, uodated last weed,

Here the debug file:

I don't see any direct issue with the Vapoursynth script that is used:

But since NVEnc fails with "y4m: failed to parse y4m header." the issue is likely somehow with the Vapoursynth script or the used filters.
My guess is that it's an issue with the fft3dfilter version that comes with Hybrid.
Try whether the issue is fixed another denoise in QTGMC than fft3dfilter is used.
If that helps replace the fft3dfilter.dll with the 'R2.AC3-AVX: AVX only R2.AC3 release' from https://github.com/AmusementClub/VapourSynth-FFT3DFilter/releases
The currently included fft3dfilter version in Hybrid is the 'R2.AC3 Even faster....' version, which requires AVX2 (didn't know that at the time).
=> my guess is your cpu doesn't support AVX2 and in combination with that fft3dfilter version you run into issues.
(in case your cpu does not support avx either, try https://github.com/myrsloik/VapourSynth-FFT3DFilter/releases/tag/R2)

Thanks, will try it later and let you know if works.

[locotus]

Seems to be working fine up to know. Thanks again.
