Windows GUI error

[Ares1110]

I downloaded the latest handbrake from svn://svn.handbrake.fr/HandBrake/trunk. When I run the Windows GUI, it reports error.

error log:

An Unknown Error has occured.

Any hint?

Thank you!

Hb.dll is missing. You need to build this along with handbrakecli.exe under mingw-w64

I compiled a handbrakecli.exe under mingw-w64. It also reported this error.

Hb.dll is missing.

We'd get through this much quicker if you were around on IRC. If you don't want to join #handbrake, then at least stick around #x265

[Ares1110]

fixed.

Ran into the same. IMHO there's good reasons to allow interested parties to successfully build/debug the windows GUI only. hb.dll seems the only hitch - the cli needs to fit the build, but that's no problem, since nightly build downloads offer the cli separately. With hb.dll, that's not so easy - extracting from the nightly installer using 7-zip alpha maybe. Or install the nightly, possibly ruining presets and existing queue. Yes it does (the queue it kills due to faac, the user_presets I've no idea why, and the built-in presets it's my own fault wanting to remove useless clutter), though probably not the installer but the actual launch which I could have avoided.

In short: Expand the nightly archives with one for the current x86 hb.dll only? Then I'd lose settings only if I stepped into the code too far...

Done. libhb downloads are now on the nightly page.
