NAME
h264enc - the interactive shell script ripperSYNOPSIS
h264enc [-1p | -2p | -3p | -qp | -crf | -b | -e | -r | -sc | -scan | -iso | -spr | -mfr | -bpp | -bpb | -v | -help] [-p <preset>] [preset_file]DESCRIPTION
h264enc is an advanced and powerful interactive menu-driven shell script which uses the encoding utility MEncoder from the MPlayer project. The script can be used to encode DVDs, (S)VCDs or regular video files to the high-quality H.264 video format (also known as AVC (Advanced Video Coding) or MPEG-4 Part 10). At the moment, the script supports virtually all options of the libx264 library and a variety of audio codecs, including support for up to three DVD audio tracks muxed into the MKV/MP4/OGM/TS containers. h264enc is targeted primarily at power users or users who understand the process of video encoding and want to tweak their settings in order to achieve the best possible quality/file size of their encodes. For more information and a FAQ, visit http://h264enc.sourceforge.neth264enc uses a configuration file stored in the user's home directory inside a hidden directory named as .h264enc where the user can enable or disable many of the supported audio/video filters and containers. This can reduce the time it takes to pass through the script when the user disables filters and/or containers he never intends to use. Further, the configuration file stores the paths to the required programs and a few other things like some script options, MPlayer flags and email support.

- cp --------> Load a custom preset file (see example below)
-
-
-
- Example of presets usage: h264enc -2p -p hq
- The above example will encode the DVD or input video file in 2-pass mode using the High Quality (HQ) preset
- Load a custom preset from a file:
h264enc -2p -p cp /path/to/file/preset.cfg - Please have a look at the preset.cfg file inside the h264enc package to give you an example on how to write a custom preset. The preset.cfg file is usually located inside the doc directory of the h264enc package.
- Examples of x264 presets/tune/profiles usage:
h264enc -2p -p slow
h264enc -2p -p slow -t film
h264enc -2p -p slow -pf main
h264enc -2p -p slow -t film -pf high - The first example encodes the input with x264's slow preset. The second one does the same but tunes the encode settings for film footage. The third example is as the first one but selects the main H.264 profile and the last example uses both a tuning for film and selects the high H.264 profile. You can also switch the -t and -pf options, eg: h264enc -2p -p slow -pf main -t film
-
- -b /path/to/file/batchfile
- Load a batch file generated by this script. This option can be useful for testing or debugging the MEncoder parameters and for batch encoding.
- -e
- Edit the config file from within the terminal. This option defaults to using the 'nano' text editor but one can manually set his preferred editor in the EDITOR variable of the config file. The config file is located in /home/username/.h264enc
- -r
- Reset configuration file. As of version 8.5.7, h264enc uses a configuration file which contains the paths to the programs needed for its correct operation. This option tells the script to remove and recreate the config file using the default values. It can be used to restore the original values of the config file in case the user has modified it and wants to get rid of those modifications. It is also used for resetting the config file in case the user has installed a required program after h264enc has generated its config file. If this is the case, the config file will not contain the path to the newly installed program so one has to reset the file in order to find it. This is because the config file is generated/updated only once: if it's not available on the user's system and during config version updates. The configuration file is located in /home/username/.h264enc/config
- -sc
- Perform a sanity check. This will check for the programs which are required for the correct operation of this script and it will print the status in a list. It will also display which audio codecs are supported by MEncoder.
- -scan
- Scan the DVD disc and display extensive information about it. With this option, one can display or export the information to a file on disk in text, perl, python, ruby or xml format.
- -iso
- Create an ISO image of the DVD disc. Note that this option does no do any stripping of specific titles, audio languages and/or subtitles. It dumps the DVD content 1:1 to an ISO image.
- -spr
- Calculate the Storage and Pixel Aspect Ratios (SAR/PAR) for various resolutions.
- -mfr
- Calculate the maximum allowed frame references within DPB (Decoded Picture Buffer) limits for different H.264 levels and resolutions.
- -bpp
- This is an informative option which lets you calculate the Bits Per Pixel (bpp) values for various resolutions. The bpp value represents how much bits each pixel gets. The higher the bpp value is, the more distinct colors the pixels will have which leads to a higher overall picture quality. Note that these values are not absolute! For video content with a lot of black in it, a bpp value of 0.14 may look very good. Video content with a lot of high motion scenes may still look bad with a bpp value of 0.20, so this really depends on the content you are willing to encode and the resolution you choose when scaling down.
- -bpb
- This option is similar to the -bpp one, except it calculates the Bits Per Block (bpb) values for various resolutions. The bpb value expresses how many bits each 16x16 macroblock gets. Good bpb values are between 37-52. As is the case with Bits Per Pixel, the bpb values are not absolute and depend on the video content you are willing to encode and the resolution you choose when scaling down.
- -help
- Display built-in help of the h264enc script and exit
- -v
- Display version of the h264enc script and exit
