mencoder & x264 help
hi all i'm trying to get mencoder working to convert a video along with an intro video (so essentially joining two videos but this will be for many files all with the same intro file) but i can't seem to find any good guides out there
here's what i want: video: x264 @ 200kbs audio: lame mp3 22050 Hz stereo @ 64kbs cbr resolution: 512:384 framerate: 23.976 container: avi and i want to mp3 converting and video converting to be as fast as possible (i know there are options to speed it up) and also to have multi-core support if available please help |
can i get some help on this please?

What you want to do may be more complicated, so you may have to take it step by step, to join files see here:
http://www.misterhowto.com/index.php..._with_mencoder Also see some howtos on converting the videos: http://wiki.quakeworld.nu/Mencoder_howto You may need to first convert all videos to a common format and settings and then join them. I've never done all that in one step, but you can try. I can't really provide you with a specific example because I usually use ffmpeg to encode videos, then if I need to join them (rarely) I use mencoder. |
can't i just combine the two following commands?

I would try this command:
Code:
mencoder -o output.avi -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:br=64 -srate 22050 -ovc x264 -x264encopts bitrate=200 threads=auto -ofps 23.976 input1.avi input2.avi |
thank you i'll try that now.. also will that work on windows and linux as i use both?
|
hey where can i get mencoder from without mplayer? or at least without smplayer?
|
It should work on both OSs. You cannot get mencoder without mplayer, it's a part of it. Just download it from the main site, they suggest using svn especially when using newer dependencies:
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html Then compile it. smplayer is not necessary, it's just a GUI frontend. |
if i get it from the svn will it be windows binary's or source as i don't know how to compile it on windows only linux :\
|
On window$ just use the binary:
http://oss.netfarm.it/mplayer-win32.php |
hmm i can't get the svn to work lol not a good day :P

Try the p3 or p4 or rtm (whatever that means). These were likely compiled to support at least pentium 3 = p3, pentium 4 = p4, and whatever rtm is.
I can't help with this too much because I don't use Window$, haven't used it in quite some years. |

You need to do them in order, first run it with pass=1, then with pass=2. If you want better quality you can also remove the threads option, it may affect motion estimation. However, you said you wanted a multithreaded way of encoding. You can also add the 'nr=' option back in, but it's mostly for noisy input videos, nr = noise reduction filter.
