MEncodeME for Linux
 
Tried the Linux version of mencodeme yesterday, and all I've got to say is WOW :bigooh:

You guys really know what you're doing! I'm amazed by the quality that mencodeme templates spit out (KSVCD)! KSVCD-template beats 6-0 all mencoder/transcode scripts I've ever tried on Linux... simply amazing!

@VMesquita:
Would it be possible for us Linux users to get the same version of mencodeme that Windows users get? Without the fancy directx stuff ofcourse :)

Cheers,
/tetra

I'm gald you enjoyed. :D

The code is still cross-plataform (or should be) :lol: I just stopped compiling because the only person that seems interested (sentinell) couldn't make it work in his MDK box. But it might have been something overflowing... :?

I'll compile 0.23 for linux as soon as I have some time. :wink:

Well, Mandrake has it's own quirks. Works great with Gentoo though.

GRRREAT!

PS. Could you make the message box wider, as currently the mencoder status message wraps to next row and causes terrible flickering.

Hi tetra, hi Vmesquita.

I don't just be alone on linux. :lol: :lol:

Well, MencodeMe don't runs in my MDK but I think it isn't a MDK problem.

tetra, What's your architerture? Are you using AMD atlon? Vmesquita,are you using atlon? I think that the problem could be in the compilation. You should compile for i586 (pentium I,II,II,IV, AMD K6 or later) or i686 (Pentiums III, athlon or later). The option must be indicated to the compiler.

eg:
Code:

gcc -march=i686
Thank's.

Excuse me my very bad english. I can read very well, but write ....

vmesquita 05-05-2004 02:00 PM

@sertinell
Yes, I have an Atlhon. I was not compiling with optimization the application, but I am not sure about the static library (wxGTK). I'll check this while I compile 0.23. :wink: I'll compile both forcing -march=i686 just to make sure. :D

@tetra
The problem is that Font Size of the textbox is bigger in GTK than in Windows. I think you can configure GTK to use a smaller fontsize, or maybe I can force textbox font. :idea:

Hi sertinell,
I'm using Athlon (XP 1800), with Gentoo Linux with a 2.6.5 kernel, everything optimizied for Athlon and mencodeme runs flawlessly.

@sertinell:
Have you tried running mencodeme as root? I know it's not a good idea, but that just might give a hint where the problem lies.

sertinell 05-06-2004 12:26 AM

Yes I tried it as root.

Peder 05-06-2004 09:10 AM

I'm running 0.2 on MDK 9.2 on a PII-400MHz as a normal user w/o any problems (other than slowness :)

I have libgtk+1.2-1.2.10-37mdk and my own compiled mencoder dev-CVS-040406

sertinell 05-06-2004 10:12 AM

OK. Then the problem it's mine. I must investigate it.

I'll see you soon

vmesquita 05-06-2004 11:07 AM

MencodeMe 0.23 for Linux is out:

http://www.jltoca.uaivip.com.br/file...deMe023.tar.gz

Enjoy!
:D

sertinell 05-06-2004 11:37 AM

Hi.

I've downloaded MencodeMe0.23 and, like I though, doesn't run under my MDK. But I have downoaded Overclockix (a distro based on Knnopix) and mencodeMe runs perfectly.

The problems are in MDK. I have the correct GTK version and all in order. I haven't answers :cry: :cry:

Thanks for your interesting

Hi, I downloadit and it runs great on Slackware 9.1, but the output (mpv file) can't be played with mplayer :/ wich version of mplayer is needed for using MencoderME ?

this is the one im using it... carlos@slackware:~$ mplayer --version
MPlayer 1.0pre3-3.2.3 (C) 2000-2003 MPlayer Team

Rename it to .m2v or .mpg and see if it plays.

@ sertinell
You have to provide more info, just saying "It doesn't work" doesn't give us any clue to what's wrong.
What happens? Doesn't it start? Does it crash midways? Any error messages? Which version of MDK?

@ micro_mx
Renaming it shouldn't matter to mplayer. Error messages, please.

I just encoded a short avi -> KVCD in 0.23 w/o problems

sertinell 05-07-2004 01:51 AM

Hi

I have MMDK 10.0 community. And It give me the following error

I haven't idea about the cause. Sorry.[/code]

belstones 05-17-2004 06:43 AM

Hello,

I have MDK 10.0 final on a Athlon (XP 1600) with the same problem.

mbaluda 05-17-2004 06:52 AM

I also have the same problem with mdk10

try using mencodeme as root with root environment (su -)

belstones 05-17-2004 07:46 AM

Thanks mbaluda,

As root as normal user the error remains the same (segmentation fault)

mbaluda 05-17-2004 07:50 AM

belstones 05-17-2004 08:35 AM
