I agree. If someone has a reason to prefer another application, they should know what it is, and therefore not need explanations about it.

.. ok .. dumb question time ^______________^ .. can this encoder handle 24 & 32 bit wav forms ?? the Encoders that are Demo's always convert it to 16 bit and destroy the multi-channel encodes and just make them Pro-Logic Garbage T_T

.. never mind by previous question; found the Source Code for 8 Channel AC_9, now I just need to re-write it so it will do what I need it to do ♥_♥

Just thought I'd give a heads up that I'm starting back to work on this stuff again. I'm going to go through this whole thread and make sure that any issues that have been raised are cleared up, and I'm probably going to make some significant changes to a couple sections of the guide. I'm also toying around with the idea of rewriting the amvapp installer from scratch, to address a few problems that I have with it. I also plan to make sure that everything in the amvapp will be compatible with all versions of Windows since Windows 2000.

Solution has been found for zarx264gui not producing an output file in vista.
Zarx264gui must be run as administrator (right click the exe file and choose run as administrator). If this doesnt work for you please let me know. If you have any other issue with the application, please let me know as well.

Here is a new build of zarx264gui with a number of improvements: http://zarxrax.kicks-ass.net/zarx264gui_1_1beta.zip

With this version, all known problems should be fixed, and it should run on all operating systems from windows 2k and up (provided you have .net 2.0 or higher installed).

New features:
- Automatically converts colorspace to yv12 if necessary.
- Allows you to load most video types directly (avi, mpg, mkv, mp4, ogm). It will automatically create an avs file to help loading.
- Quality presets (im not an expert on x264 settings, so can someone please check over these and see if they look reasonable), including one that SHOULD be compatible with quicktime player.
- You can now drag and drop a video file instead of having to browse to it.

Known issues: file drag and drop allows you to do stupid stuff with the filename. If you try to use a filename that doesnt exist, or is the wrong kind of file, I guess it will crash. If anyone can help me program error handling for this, please let me know.

Please let me know if you have any problems with this version.
