I'm going to take a break from x265 for a while. Every new build gets slower and slower so there is no need for me to keep banging my head against the wall, hoping that someone has created a build that will encode HEVC faster than 5 fps. I'll check back in a few months to see if MCW has decided to concentrate on making the encoder faster. Besides, I should be outside enjoying the nice weather instead of sitting at the computer, waiting for another heart attack.

jb_alvarado's media-autobuild_suite is going to work well again with MSYS2-64; x265 already builds with GCC 4.9.0; so there are experimental builds of the 4 EXE flavours. Yet, a few issues have to be fixed still...
And because there was a stable-merge again, version 1.0+21-8963bc3aa2e1 with the usual MSYS (GCC 4.8.2).Last edited by LigH.de; 7th May 2014 at 04:38.

Hello everybody,
does anybody knows how cmake gets his version info for x265 from hg? When I use the TortoiseHg installer pack to clone, I can compile x265 normal under windows with msys2/mingw-w64 and it gets also the correct version. But when I try to use the build in mercurial hg tool from msys2 it don't get the version number and cmake stops with errors. -
The folders that contain cmake and hg MUST be in the "path".

Also, I have no experience with TortoiseHg. The x265 wiki still must be read with some tons of salt (unfortunately). -
Hello El Heggunte,
thanks for your answer! This doesn't help. I don't work with the windows path variable, I work with my msys profile, and there is the all in the path I think. When not than I think mercurial can not clone and cmake can not build.
Is strange, I even don't install TortoiseHg, I only unpack the msi file, put the path in my profile and it work. I need to ask the developer from msys2.
I was working before with msys1 and I think the new version is way smarter, so I don't want to go back. -
Version 1.1 is coming "soon™", so there was a stable merge again. There have been many preset changes to make them a lot faster with only little quality penalty.
Therefore: x265 1.0+151-108996798e78 -
being in possession of content with the usual amount of artifacts, ie, (tv sources) -- won't help with these kinds of upgrade efficiencies. but i'll have to test for myself and see if there really is any difference or penalty using an older x265 build once the x265 team update their portal with the latest build, since they don't update that area often. i'm at their mercy since i don't know how to compile for xp. and before you ask.. no, i don't go to sharing sites like mediafire. my pc is not equipt to handle (block) their ads.

x265 1.1+3-1fe42453d2e3 is up. Time to clean up my HEVC folder a bit and remove 0.8 versions.
-
For those who don't like MediaFire&Co I compiled and attached the lates (MinGW 32/64bit; 8bit/16bit) x265 versions.
-
Well, among many other file hosters, MediaFire is rather fair, IMHO; not too many ads, not too hard limits, quite compatible (even Opera 12 can handle it and block flash ads without disabling the download).
-
From what I understand, it doesn't make all presets faster but just speeds up the medium preset to pretty much do away with the need for other presets unless you are a glutton for punishment with super slow encoding speeds. The faster presets are no faster than before.
Still a long way off if expected to replace x264. Like Ligh stated though, time to clean out all older x265 folders.
EDIT:
We have sped up the ultrafast preset by about 10 to 30% (bigger
benefit at higher bit rates). There is a very small impact on encoding
efficiency, but you can always increase efficiency by using a slower
(higher quality) preset. We've also sped up the superfast, veryfast
and faster presets in a similar way.Last edited by DarrellS; 4th Jun 2014 at 09:33.

Practical encoding speed will depend on many factors. If the bottleneck is reading the huge uncompressed source file from a slow harddisk (or an elaborately filtered AviSynth script via avs4x265 pipe), then faster calculations in x265 won't speed up anything. And supported CPU instructions may have some impact as well, even when the source is read fast.
-
I encoded a 1080p clip at 15 fps so there is some improvement there but using the medium preset, I only got 3.2 fps. Also, I add --crt 18 to my presets and using the external encoder in Virtualdub, I get an anonymous pipe error on the medium preset and have to remove the --crt 18 from my command argument to get it to encode. The ultrafast preset ends up with almost double the bitrate as the medium preset.
-
There is no command line option "--crt". Maybe you mean "--crf".
But it also depends on the position where you put options into a command line. At the wrong position, it may split an option from its argument, and the command line parsing gets confused. -
Whoa, I screwed that up pretty good. My first preset was correct but somehow I managed to hit the t key instead of f key, then copied and pasted to all my other encoders.
Thanks for that. I doubt that I would've figured it out on my own. I need to get better reading glasses I guess.
EDIT: Looks like I used -q 18 on ultrafast.Last edited by DarrellS; 4th Jun 2014 at 18:41.

I guess I need to clean out everything and start over cause I can't get anything to work now. Gets to the last frame and crashes. None of my x265 presets work. I must've used an older encoder earlier today instead of the new one.
-
Crashing during the after-encode summary in "ultrafast" and "superfast" presets is already a known issue to me. I notified the developers, they are about to fix it. A next release should work well again...

Not_so_Off-Topic...
Latest version of avs4x265 is 0.4 0_o
http://kurtnoise.free.fr/x265/ -
Uh, nice. It became tiny, doesn't include an x265 anymore. No changelog though, probably still does the same (feeding raw YUV and adding required parameters). Maybe does it include now suggested additions from the avs4x264 thread in the doom9 forum (which seem to got lost there, but I got an email notification about the disappeared reply)? It seems to support High Bit Depth script output, according to what I understand from the C sources.
Ah, it is explained from here on.

P.S.: x265 1.1+35-495874699b0d on MediaFire and below.
Another stable merge + one more useful patch. Presets ultrafast and superfast should not crash anymore during the summary.Last edited by LigH.de; 5th Jun 2014 at 04:02.

I can confirm that the crash problem is fixed in x265_1.1+35-495874699b0d but the encode speeds are much lower (10.39 fps) than yesterday and lower than the old version that I still have.

I tried Fllear's build and encoded 1080p at 16.26 fps.

Халоу!
Tired of all these samples!
Can be viewed on the fresh and simple / amateur record on this > similarity video (sourсe). -
Something is wrong with 1.1+45. Every build that I tried would only encode 1920x1080 at 4.3 fps.

Overlooked
Strip from the trees show that the encoder does not produce image correction with the next frame - stupid duplicates / not refer to changes (not subtracts).
My suspicions seem to come true:

> theory 2
