BRIEF TUTORIAL FOR MeGUI AND ENCODING FROM HDrips AND DVDrips!
1. Installing and Updating:
install MeGUI, update it. (Update is a MUST! then load all profiles offered during the update!)
2. Opening and Creating Avisynth
When you run the program, File/Open your source film,
(SOURCE MUST BE GOOD QUALITY -- HD, HDrip, DVDR, DVDrip or atleast R5 LINE --, don't bother with low quality sources) it will ask you to create AVS file, its mostly needed for resizing, cropping,filter information, and source path of course. Just untick/unselect the Resize, cause if you temper with the resolution it doesn't turns out quite well, so original resolution is fine without resizing.
Only HD and DVDR need to be resized and cropped!
3. x264
Cause a lot of you can't find HQ Slower profile, here are MY profiles (updated), just unpack them in the megui directory and overwrite yours and when you run the program all profiles should appear!
Download link:
Make sure that codec is x264 and container/extension/File Format is MKV. Use HQ Slower profile (it takes some time to encode, for me its like 3.5hrs, and on dual core processors its around 2hrs.) or even HQ slow (not much faster but with less command lines). Experiment with it, look at other people rips (especially Adzapper's, then compare to your own), maybe you find even better profile than HQ slower.
Right now I'm testing Sharktooth's custom profiles that can be found here:
4. Audio
Audio source (input) is the same as movie source file! Open it, then find the source video file. (example: if you have opened troy.avi then created avisynth script troy.avs, after that you click on Audio input "troy.avi file IS Audio input/source!)
Select it and open, select codec to be NDAAC (Nero Digital Audio Codec) Use profile NDAAC-HE-64kbs, then select Adaptive bitrate and set from 45-50kbs (thats enough for decent audio quality and extremely high compression!) or you can use LAME MP3, go to config, there is not much things you can do here just change the bitrate from 128 to 80 (below that, the sound isnt very good) click OK.
NDAAC (Nero Digital Audio) is one of the best codecs, probably even better than LAME cause it can do high audio compression while preserving decent audio quality at small bitrates.
If you don't have installed nero digital audio codec download it here:
Then copy all the files (neroAacDec.exe, neroAacEnc.exe, neroAacEnc_SSE.exe, neroAacTag.exe) from extracted directory (win32) to C:/Program Files/MeGUI/. Do not copy the entire directory, only files.
5. Final Step
In the lower right corner you have "Autoencode" tab. Click on it.
Select a Container to be MKV (if it isn't already). This is where you decide the entire outcome/bitrate of the movie. Click "average bitrate" option and type the desired bitrate (example 500kbs total, 450kbs goes to video 50kbs to audio, of course if audio is set to 50kbs if it is set to higher bitrates then it will lower video bitrate), that is depending on movie duration your size and bitrate will vary. Aim to get the size 1MB BELOW the targeted size, if its 300MB rip, aim to 299MB, if its 400MB rip, aim to 399MB (this is because of compressing with winrar so you dont get fourth rar file on 300MB rips that is like 1-2MB's)
Also you should cut the end credits of every movie (source), there are a lot of programs that can do that easily.
It's not about the size, its about entire quality of the movie outcome.
Those 5-10 minutes can mean A LOT to entire picture quality on final result.
I did this regulary, just forgot to mention. Cheers!
6. Encoding
In autoencode window click Queue. In upper left corner you have the tabs Input/Queue/Log. Click on Queue. Click Start. If no workers exist program will offer to create one!
And thats it. Now you have to wait Razz, in my case 3 hrs.
As Adzapper said, 100MB is 30min of the movie, 200MB is 60min of the movie, you get the point.
Ripping and encoding the movies from DVDR's.
I've done few DVDR's with megui (if you remember chronicles of riddick, underworld, underworld evolution etc.)
I've used two more tools for that one is called joinvobfiles that can be found here:
and this one:
mpeg2cut (you can trim vob files if you want to remove end credits)
ok this is MY process, probably there is faster, better blah blah, but still it worked.
First you need to find the main movie files usually called:
VTS_01_1.VOB,
VTS_01_2.VOB,
VTS_01_3.VOB,
VTS_01_4.VOB,
(DVD Decrypter is the best for that, if you know how to use it just select the option "select main movie files", and select the location).
Copy it to some temp folder and join those files with (join vob files program that I've provided the link for) into one big 4gig vob file.
rjuan pointed out an easier way to join vob files, that DVD Decrypter can join them as one file while copying "main movie files" I haven't tried this cause generally I didn't encode much of DVDRs to x264.
Here is how:
First step:
Second step:
Use mpeg2cut if you want to trim the end credits, save as new file of course.
(When you cut, you select time borders from start to the time where end credits begins, then save that trimmed file to a new file)
Second thing you need to is open that joined file e.g. "joined.vob", File/open in meGUI, choose d2v creator, demux all audio tracks, wait until its created, open that d2v file, now very important thing... Avisynth will open, here you need to crop the image to remove black stripes (I've always used Auto crop and it worked fine), save that avisynth by desired name.
Choose appropriate audio track (there will be few probably... english and any other language).
The rest of the process is the same... Experiment with it...
I see many of you ask the same questions about problems not even looking what others have already encountered and sloved.
Word of advice, first read through the tutorial, then if you encounter any problems during setting up the program, encoding etc. search and read through these pages, miraculously you will probably find an answer for your problem, if not then try to ask for help.
Many of these same questions will probably not be repeated over and over again. Very Happy
Cheers! Smile
