Encode x264 with ffmpeg?
« on: February 22, 2011, 12:04:41 PM »
When I try to encode x264 with ffmpeg I get "Unknown encoder 'libx264'". x264.tcz is loaded. Is it in another extension?

You could use mencoder or the standalone x264 binary in the meanwhile.

Ok, now I've tried the x264 binary but all I get is colorful snow in the output file.

I've tried:
x264 -o outfile.flv infile.mpg 720x576
and
x264 -o outfile.mkv infile.mpg 720x576

The infile is an ordinary mpeg2.

Please help.

It doesn't take mpeg input, AFAIK, at least that's what I read from x264 --help (I use mencoder, myself).
