Avidemux Forum

There must be some mistake in the hacky workaround you use to kill Jobs GUI process.

I can only repeat my recommendation to call avidemux3_qt5 directly in your shell script. That Jobs GUI is helpful on Windows where scripting and command line usage was (it is getting better now, but starting from an abysmal level) an unbelievable pain. Just script avidemux3_qt5 if you need HW accel or avidemux3_cli directly. You would need the --nogui switch to auto-confirm dialogs. No need to kill anything, just shutdown the system when the last call returns.

I compared also the result from saving the sample in copy mode with ffmpeg, and the structure is as expected very similar to the output of Avidemux (no wonder, both use the libavformat library, a part of ffmpeg). The first obvious difference is a different strategy in splitting data into chunks (very small chunks = good interleaving with libavformat, big chunks in the output of libmp4v2). No idea whether this matters.

By the way, a brief search for "davinci resolve audio stuttering" finds quite a lot of complaints, some reporting the issue to be solved by chaning the sampling frequency from 44100 Hz to 48000. You might try to re-encode audio with the appropriate "resample" audio filter enabled.

Avidemux is great software, jobs works perfect, but when I convert many video and I leave computer on night, or just I go out, it will be very well to shotdown cpu after last job... so option in jobs: leave window after last done will allow to do it.

VLC dumps the structure of the mp4 container beautifully. For the output of the MP4 muxer in Avidemux from saving the 01.mkv in copy mode (I've set the language of the first audio track to "English" and disabled other audio tracks):
