How get get x264 codec working for NSVTools?

[rachin]

I have experience in configuring h264 to work with NSV but this time around I'm just not able to get it going

I installed the latest fddshow from http://x264.nl/ and then set h264 to "Set all stable formats to libavcodec" in the VFW codec configuration. Then I downloaded nsv_coder_x264.dll and saved it to c:\program files\nsvtools folder.

I'm able to play the x264 format nsv files fine using Winamp but unable to bring up the config screen for x264 from nsvtools. I can see X264/VFW option in video format under NSVTools --> NSV --> Config --> Encoder Config but when I click on configure nothing happens. For vp62, vp61 or vp31 the configure screen brings up the settings screen.


I did pretty much the same steps I think on my laptop a while ago and when I click on configure the settings options for X264/VFW shows up. On my desktop though clicking on the configure button after having selected "X264/VFW" does absolutely nothing.

Am I suppose to install any more software on top of what I've installed already? I did a search and couldn't find an answer to this either on Google or on this forums.

Thanks in advance for any answers you may have for this, have a good one.

Never mind got it working. I had installed the ffdw but did not install the x264 run time. If anyone finds with similar issues, download the x264 runtime from http://www.softpedia.com/progDownloa...oad-29491.html and install it.

I'm having the same problem, and can't figure out what you mean, could you please help me?

The latest X264 isn't built on VFW anymore, u have to find a separate build using that.

U can find it here I think:

No matter what I try/download I cannot get the x264/VFW pull down menu in NSVCap (NSV - config - encoder config) I tried all of Wildex's installs on that site and it is still not showing up.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have used the exact same tools ons at least 3 different computers after a reinstall, always working, both on XP and vista =/

Are you sure you have the nsv_coder_x264.dll shim in a location it can be found by the encoder/tools?.

Hi, Wildex999.
Thank you for your efforts but your .dll files cannot encode video files and I cannot see config.
Can you review it again and fix the bugs pls? thank you for your blogs. We will click it everyday for sure.

[navruzjon]

Can anybody give a hint of how to exploit v61 or v62.dll? I get an error on encoding the file. I could not adjust it. Thank you.

[sankt]

What kind of error are you getting ?

[navruzjon]

Thank you Sankt. Sorry, I forgot to look at that part.

I'm putting nsv_coder_vp61.dll, nsv_coder_vp62.dll, nsv_coder_aacp, nscrt.dll to NSVtools folder. When I start to configure, Windows closing the NSvate.

Is something wrong with nscrt.dll? I copied it from Winamp/plugins.

[sankt]

What are you trying to do with nscrt.dll ?

[navruzjon]

When I want to enter NSV cofiguration, the system is crying that not found nscrt.dll, so I copied it from Winamp/plugins but now it is closing all NSVATE.

[navruzjon]

I did it finally. That was nothing about nscrt.dll. After my installing windows service pack, it is solved.

Sankt, Thank you anyway.

Ahh yes, X264... Any new links to this vfw codec plus the nsv_coder.dll? Since all of megaupload is ruled by the government now???

[Smelter]

The latest x264 with vfw should work.

Here is the source code for the nsv_coder_x264's and a lame audio mp3 coder

As is.... may have to build or rename the output to nsv_coder_...

Indeed. I found a curious problem tho. I ran across a x264 Stream on the Shoutcast TV Guide. It seems that Winamp won't play them by default. I take it Winamp failed to implement that video codec inside their player like they did with VP6 and VP8. So this may actually be the best plan unfortunately. Is Winamp going to include x264 in any of their builds anytime soon?

[Smelter]

change the poo type to 'H264' from x264 and see what happens.

vp8 decoding is included in winamp so you can guarantee support for that without the decoder.
