clever FFmpeg-GUI, small FFmpeg UI, fully portable, no installation.

After version clever_f3.2.8.03 when you try svt-av1 encode you have this error

I try different files but the error is still same and can not do the encoder .

Thanks

Also when you use cropping on any codec encoder :

you do not have the page when you choose scale algorithm when you press encode :

and the movie is encoded with the black border

Hope there is just a glitch and will be corrected if it is possible !!

Thanks for this great tool !!!

Your settings make no sense.
You first cropped with the result 1280x688, which gives a DAR of 1.85.
If you resize to frame width 1920 then the frame height must be 1036 with the same DAR, and not 1080 as in your picture.
Padding with the same values as frame with and frame height makes no sense and is pointless.

As for the error:
I confirm it. The FFmpeg code has been changed.
(av1 only supported in MP4 and AVIF, and not in mov, as before).
I will change this in the next beta.

In the meantime there is the following workaround:
Make your settings and then click on To batch, instead of encode.
Then quit clever FFmpeg-GUI.

You will now find a new text file BT_open.txt in your destination folder.

Open it in your text editor and change .mov to .mp4
Save the file, close the text editor and restart clever FFmpeg-GUI.

This will now start directly into the batch grid.
Click execute, and your AV1 video will now be encoded correctly.

What is the point of cropping if i want the same resolution to be 1920:1080 like i did before and not 1920:1036 as you say ?

Just like i do it with ffmpeg script for example : -vf "yadif=0:0:0,crop=1280:692:0:14,scale=1920:1080:fl ags=lanczos,setsar=1:1" -r 24 -aspect 1.7777
Thanks again !!!

Every movie has its original aspect ratio, i.e. the ratio of frame width to frame height.
You should not change this aspect ratio, as this will change the visual result.

So if you resize from 1280x692 (1.85) to 1920x1036 (1.85) then the visual result is the same.
If you resize from 1280x692 (1.85) to 1920x1080 (1.78) then the visual result is changed.
If you absolutely want to change the output format to 1920x1080, then you must resize to 1920x1036 and pad to 1920x1080.
In this case black bars above and bottom are added.

You could also resize the whole 1280x720 to 1920x1080, without any cropping.

Autoupdate on startup would be a good idea

@ProWo I've PM'ed you over at the Doom9 forums but thought I'd let you know here, I've discovered a video encoding bug in the latest Beta v3.3.0.02 that isn't present in the previous Beta v3.3.0.01 or the Official v3.3.0 release, a "Error creating an internal frame pool" dialog pops up, do you think you may know what this may be?

Hi oniiz86,
I can't reproduce that here.
Does this also happen with another movie or only with this one?
Which settings did you make exactly?
Post a mediainfo report from this movie here.

I've tried another film with a HEVC stream & I received the same error, perhaps it's HEVC related as there are no such issues with AVC streams?

Also for some strange reason the frame rate is reported as 23.81 fps in the top right hand corner not the proper 23.976 fps, the MediaInfo reports 23.976 (24000/1001) but for some strange reason when I actually play the file with MPC-HC & click on File then Properties the dialog box reports the frame rate as 23.81fps.
