Unable to get Hybrid to work

[Leanoric]

I thought that I would give Hybrid another go, and I was as unsucsessful this time as I was last time. Just wondering if anybody could give me a clue as to where im going wrong?

Im trying to deinterlace and crop a vdub captured lagarith avi. At first I was getting an error due to pcm audio, so I set to custom and changed to aac in the audio tab. I still got an error due to pcm, so I compressed the audio in vdub2 and opened the new file with aac audio in Hybrid.

I dont get the audio error now but for some reason hybrid only gets 25% through the job and then crashes.

When I click the preview box, the video plays fine, deinterlaced. Any ideas? Thanks.

I've worked it out, I had missed the apply configuration button in the x264 tab.

Naturally, since you probably didn't change the entry in the audio queue.

I've worked it out, I had missed the apply configuration button in the x264 tab.

Not pressing the apply configuration button in x264 should not cause an error. So whatever you did, I don't think the issue was you having forgotten to press a button in the x264-tab.

If you can reproduce the issue, and you want help, better create a debug output (read: https://www.selur.de/support) and share that, since:
a. those screenshots don't really say much
b. the 'user amusement log' doesn't contain any meaningful information. (Only thing they state is that the 1st pass stats file wasn't created and that Hybrid failed after 0.133 seconds while trying to start a video encoding call)

Thanks for the quick reply Selur. Since posting earlier, I have had several crashes and have not been able to finish another video. The audio causes an error every time, even when I change the entry in the queue.

I have gone back to compressing the audio in vituladub to aac, but now it crashes for other reasons.

I have created a degug output for you.

According tot the debug output, the crash happens when processing the .avs file:

Problem I see there is that ConvertToRGB24 converts the video to RGB24, but Hybrid assumes its YV12.
=> I'll look into it and report back.

Thanks

Send you a pm with a link to a dev version which should fix the issue.

Thanks Selur, Ive put a couple of videos through the dev version and its working great. No crashes with the audio now either.

[Selur]

Thanks for the feedback.
