[mean]

Pros
------
* Using updated ffmpeg 3.x branch, should help to read some files (e.g. vp9,...)
* Optimised non accelerated display
* Bunch of bugs fixed

Cons:
--------

Indexing h264 in TS is crashing on win64

[mean]

the win32-32bis version seems ok

[mean]

It seems to be a compiler bug
Very close to that one: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60902
I'm trying to update the win64 compiler, which is always risky

[mean]

Seems to do the trick, it will take a couple of days to update everything

Any chance you can enable the new dynaudnorm filter as an alternative to the sloooow -3db normalization option ? The -3db normalization also doesn't work well with "live" recordings that might have an occasional loud noise that ends up making the whole video super quiet .

[mean]

ok, both win64 & win64_ffmpeg3 rebuilt
There could be some side effects

[mean]

It's being merged into master
I'll remove tomorrow the _ffmpeg3 nightlies

I uninstalled all other versions of Avidemux and installed avidemux_2.6.12_r160621_win64.exe
I loaded a project I just saved successfully with the release version with MMX disabled and it crashes in this version, even with MMX disabled. It's the OpenGL "Rotate" filter that crashes .

I've just finished cutting up an 11 hour video shoot into the individual bands with the released version - using the nightly build to save a couple .ADTS audio files. I'm now available to help you figure out why the Ffmpeg V3 isn't working as well on my system as the release version . What can I do to help?

[mean]

could you try with that one :

Hmm... No AVC codec? Crashed the first time I loaded the project.

Choosing the Mpeg4 ASP (ff) codec with all CPU options enabled it works!

If I load a project that used the AVC codec it shows as "Video""copy" but previews with the filters even though the filter button i grayed out.

Weird, now if I just start it up it defaults to all CPU options disabled? I set them all on and exited and it still starts all disabled?

[mean]

I forgot some plugins
Build are started, normally done in ~ 30mn

The key is debug mode it seems, something is not initialized

[RoadRanger]

OK, watching for it here  :

BTW, can't see where I'm supposed to set my timezone on this forum?

[mean]

25 mn to go

[RoadRanger]

OK, works fine. I do see that all the CPU optimizations are off, with them all on it still works although I don't know if a debug version actually uses those? It will take about an hour to "save" this project so I'll report back how that goes.

[mean]

It's  slightly slower and the files are bigger, because they contain debug informations
It 's just to help track down the problem

Tomorrow i'll do a "not slower" but with debug information to see if it works
My guess is yes.
