x265 10 and 12 bit fixed 2.1 or 2.2 version

Post by Deleted User 39358 »

Where is the x265 10 and 12 bit proper 2.1 or 2.2 DLL?

It was reported several months ago, that the last x265 DLL update contains a bug, that encoded video with 2.1 version is reported as 0.0 (quite annoying bug and should be fixed easily). There is already x265 2.2 released more than a month ago and still no update to DLL. Can you update the DLL, please? Pretty please...

There's nothing stopping you from compiling your own version of HandBrake that includes the latest x265. See...

Works beautifully!

All you have to do is follow these instructions, but add a trivial Step 7.5 and do something completely different for Step 12.

I'm not going to tell you what those alterations are, because this is something you need to figure out for yourself.

Why?

Because when something goes wrong, and it will, you'll also need to figure out the solution for yourself. Don't come here asking why your modified nightly code doesn't work.

Re: x265 10 and 12 bit fixed 2.3+ & FDK

Post by ByteShare »

Modification from: https://trac.handbrake.fr/wiki/CompileOnWindows
--Note-- The HandBrake team will NOT support any custom build of HandBrake, be warned.

I found the easiest thing to do was:

Fresh Ubuntu 14.04 install:

sudo apt-get install subversion yasm build-essential autoconf libtool \

zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev libogg-dev libtheora-dev libvorbis-dev \

libsamplerate-dev libxml2-dev libfribidi-dev libfreetype6-dev \

libfontconfig1-dev libass-dev intltool libglib2.0-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev \

libgtk2.0-dev libgudev-1.0-dev libwebkit-dev libnotify-dev \

libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev libappindicator-dev \

gcc-multilib


Or:
sudo apt-get install subversion yasm build-essential autoconf libtool

sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev libogg-dev libtheora-dev libvorbis-dev

sudo apt-get install libsamplerate-dev libxml2-dev libfribidi-dev libfreetype6-dev

sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1-dev libass-dev intltool libglib2.0-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev libgudev-1.0-dev libwebkit-dev libnotify-dev

sudo apt-get install libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev libappindicator-dev

sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib

>then:

sudo apt-get install git yasm libtool intltool cmake

>then:

Extract mingw-w64-bin_x86_64-linux_20131228.tar.bz2 to home folder as mingw

*-------------------------------------*
After those steps:

Then edit the file: libstdc++.la

Located: /home/User/mingw/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib

Last option from: /home/mingw-w64/mingw-w64/linux-x86_64-x86_64/build/build/root/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/../lib

Change To: /home/User/mingw/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib

Run:

export PATH=~/mingw/bin:$PATH

(to test mingw) Run: x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc -v

>then:
git clone https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake.git

-Outside of terminal go to the HandBrake folder and edit the file:
HandBrake/contrib/x265/module.defs
Using https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265/downloads/ for recent link you should change the fetch and extract info to look like:
X265.FETCH.url = https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x26 ... 2.3.tar.gz
X265.FETCH.basename = x265_2.3.tar.gz
X265.EXTRACT.tarbase = x265_2.3
manually add new x265 tar to /home/test/HandBrake/download and extract

>then:
cd HandBrake

>then:
./configure --cross=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --enable-x265 --enable-qsv --enable-hwd --launch-jobs=1 --launch --enable-fdk

Files:
/home/User/HandBrake/build/HandBrakeCLI.exe
/home/User/HandBrake/build/libhb/hb.dll

------------------------------------
For GUI:

Compiling the Windows GUI

Install Microsoft Visual Studio Community edition from ​https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/prod ... ty-vs.aspx

Download zip: ​https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake.git The source code for the GUI is in the Win/CS folder. The solution file is named HandBrake.sln

Please make sure HandBrakeWPF is set as the startup project in the "Solution Explorer". Right click it and choose "Set as startup project" if it is not.

change under HandBrake WPF > Converters > AUdio > AudioEncoderConverter.cs
Remove the if statment for: if (!HandBrakeEncoderHelpers.AudioEncoders.Any(a => a.ShortName.Contains("fdk")))

Save all

Now simply go to the Build Menu and click "Build Solution"

Please note, you will need to copy hb.dll into the output folder where HandBrake.exe is compiled to. Depending on the build profile you select, you will find it in a folder under: trunk\win\CS\HandBrakeWPF\bin\...

You'll also need the x265 .DLLs for the version you installed which you can get from http://msystem.waw.pl/x265/
Get the GCC 6.3 version

Do not do this. This is here for a reason and will NOT enable the FDK encoder for you. It either won't work, or it'll fallback to libavaac.

That code checks if FDK is available in the compile. So if its not, it doesn't show the menu option for it.


Also, the x265 included in HandBrake will show 2.1, not 0.0. We corrected this in the package so it's a non issue.

Finally, I'll warn people again, you will not get any support for using custom versions. If you get crashing or problems because of it, your very much on your own. We will probably upgrade to 2.3 in the not so distant future in the nightly builds.

That is why I say to build the hb.dll with "--enable-fdk"
I updated my instructions with a warning at the top.

My instructions are to get it (x265) up to date, not to correct the 0.0 issue. Looking forward to the nightlies having 2.3

My comments were directed at many people, not just you.

You still don't have to remove that code. If the encoder is not appearing, it's not available. (i.e not compiled in)

Okay, makes sense. Thank you.
