x265 encoder keeps crashing for no reason - NCF - 30.01.2024

Hi, I'm trying to figure out why the x265 encoder keeps crashingPlease, read the 'Infos needed to fix&reproduce bugs,..'-sticky before you post about a problem.


RE: x265 encoder keeps crashing for no reason - Selur - 30.01.2024

Will look at it this evening after work.
Does the Vapoursynth Preview Work?

Yes.  It's the x265 encoder that's crashing.

Hybrid aborts with " x265 output: x265 [error]: unable to open input file" while calling:
"C:\Program Files\Hybrid\64bit\Vapoursynth\vspipe.exe" "C:\Users\Jason Edades\AppData\Local\Temp\encodingTempSynthSkript_2024-01-29@22_21_03_1910_0.vpy" - -c y4m | "C:\Program Files\Hybrid\64bit\x265.exe" --input - --fps 24000/1001 --output-depth 12 --y4m --profile main12 --level-idc 6.2 --limit-modes --no-early-skip --no-open-gop --opt-ref-list-length-pps --weightb --ref 6 --lookahead-slices 0 --crf 10.00 --opt-qp-pps --cbqpoffs -2 --crqpoffs -2 --limit-refs 0 --ssim-rd --psy-rd 2.50 --rdoq-level 2 --psy-rdoq 10.00 --dynamic-rd 2.00 --aq-mode 1 --sbrc --vbv-maxrate 12000000 --vbv-bufsize 12000000 --deblock=-1:-1 --selective-sao 0 --sao-non-deblock --no-repeat-headers --fades --psnr --ssim --range limited --colormatrix bt709 --sar 1:1 --output "C:\Users\Jason Edades\AppData\Local\Temp\2024-01-29@22_21_03_1910_02.265"
normally this hints that something is wrong with the Vapoursynth script:

core = vs.core
# Import scripts folder
scriptPath = 'C:/Program Files/Hybrid/64bit/vsscripts'

But since you wrote that the Vapoursynth Preview works fine the next thing is that:
1. some over active anti virus or similar tool is interfering
2. some memory issue which is only triggered when encoder and decoder use the ram

Do other encoder work?

I tried other encoders.  It still crashed.


RE: x265 encoder keeps crashing for no reason - Selur - 30.01.2024

Okay, so it isn't just a x265 issue.
try:
a. setting your temp folder to a folder output of your AppData folder
b. disabling virus scanners or similar (<- especially when H is not a local drive)

It's still crashing randomly.


RE: x265 encoder keeps crashing for no reason - Selur - 30.01.2024

Randomly, during encoding of the same or different sources?
Ranomly sound like some memory or asm issue or heat issue.

Different sources


RE: x265 encoder keeps crashing for no reason - Selur - 30.01.2024

Does it also crash if you simplify the script?
