Encoding crashes with SMPTE-ST-2084 settings

Using:

(just changed, the path to the tools and the location of the temp folder), the call works fine for me.

I get the same errors you did when the temp folder doesn't exist.
(tried different sources and couldn't reproduce the issue)

-> Does the folder: ""C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Temp\" exist and can your user write to it?

Hi, yes that folder does exist and I can write to it. I tried changing the Temp folder to Desktop, but the problem still exists.

I used your above code and it works, but its missing the "Transfer characteristics" "smpte-st-2084" bit. When I put "--transfer smpte-st-2084" into your code, then it doesnt work again : that bit is important and I must have it in my encode.

Okay, I just realized something: You are using an old version.
x265 renamed '-transfer smpte-st-2084' to '-transfer smpte2084', which is why your installation crashed. I fixed that a while ago in Hybrid,..
-> Update you version.

This seems to be working    I am using Hybrid 2018.08.05.1, which is the latest version on your website

I am using the latest version of Hybrid but the smpte command doesnt work in that, which version is ok in?

[Selur]

Last version works fine here.
Did you recreate the job? What does your encoding settings look like?
Would need a debug output of the processing to say more,...

I used the latest version when I sent you the last debut output, the latest version (2018.08.05.1) has "--transfer smpte-st-2084" which doesnt work, only "--transfer smpte2084" works which you sent me for command prompt.

[Selur]

I'll send you a link to my current dev version via PM which definitely sets '--transfer smpte2084'.
-> can't send you a pm, since you disabled it, so you'll have to wait for the next public release (may be next weekend in case I find the time)

When trying to send you a PM I get:

rudiano has private messaging disabled. You cannot send private messages to this user.

-> Check your settings: https://forum.selur.net/usercp.php?action=options and enable 'Receive private messages from other users.' if you want to get PMs from others

Thanks, I have done it

I've just installed the latest version available and the transfer option isn't correct for the x265 encoder.

Any idea when there will be a release with the change included?
