x264 binary wont output

Postby hydra3333 » 21 Apr 2014 12:07

Hello, a newbie here unsure where to post, so here goes.

I downloaded the latest x264 windows binaries from videolan and tried to use them to create .mp4 files, but I receive an error message along the lines "not compiled with mp4 output support".

The commandline:

Code: Select all

"x264-x64.exe" --thread-input --frames "148541" --profile high --level 4.1 --preset slow --interlaced --tff --no-cabac --crf 18 --sar 16:11 --colormatrix bt470bg -o "Y:\HDTV\tv-movie-temp.MP4" "Y:\HDTV\tv-movie.mpg"
The previous x264 binaries I successfully used were from x264.nl with the that same commandline.
After the encode, I use ffmpeg to encode the audio and then mux video/audio with MP4Box.

Suggestions/links welcomed.

These builds don't have MP4 support so they output raw H.264 streams, which you can mux into MP4 with MP4Box.
Use the extension .264 or .h264 instead of .mp4 for the output file.

Hi, back again. Three things

1. Does the 32 but build accept avisynth .avs input ?

2. Does it accept a stream input, like below ?
"C:\software\avs2yuv\avs2yuv.exe" "%avs1%" -o - | "%X264EXE%" - --stdin y4m --thread-input --frames %FRAMES% --profile high --level 4.1 --preset fast --interlaced --tff --no-cabac --crf %CRF% --sar 64:45 --colormatrix bt470bg -o "%PARtemp%"

3. Is there a change log ?
