MediaCoder

I just switched to MC 0.8.30.5620 and x265 encoder don't work - Everything was fine with 0.8.29.5608 so I reinstalled it...I'm running a win7 x86 machine , so I guess there is a problem with new MC version on x86 machine; is it correct ?

Is MC installer going to be updated/fixed ? Anyone else with same problem ?

I just tried the 32-bit version of MediaCoder 0.8.30.5620 and it works fine with x265. I'm using a 64-bit OS but that shouldn't make a difference.
It may have been corrected already so you might want to try redownloading the installer (I used the full version).

Yes , it could make a difference. It's possible to run many x32 applications on x64 machine, but NOT THE OPPOSITE (x64 app. on x86 machine).
Right now, I'm encoding a video; I'll try the new installer (I use the full version as well) later.
Please, could you test the 32-bit version of MediaCoder 0.8.30.5620 x265 encoder on a 32-bit machine ?
It looks to me like the x265 encoder 64-bit has been implemented on BOTH MediaCoder versions (32-bit and 64-bit) . Thanks

Running a 32-bit program on a 64-bit OS should be the same as running the 32-bit program on a 32-bit OS? The reason you can't run 64-bit applications on 32-bit OS is because the program is designed around the x86_64 instruction set which is an extension of the normal x86 instruction set (which is what 32-bit applications use).
In any case, I don't have easy access to any 32-bit computers. And regarding your suggestion of the 64-bit encoder being coded into 32-bit version of the program, I believe there was the same problem before in a previous version. It would be up to Stanley to recheck that though.

Yes, same problem was with version 5600 - after a few days has been fixed.
Now I think there is same problem again with version 5620-
Can you contact Stanley and ask him to check ?

There is a bug report section in the forums where you can post any bugs. This will allow other people having the same issue to check and confirm whether it is a valid bug or not.

Also note that people who respond to this Forum, such as HuggiL, the Moderator, and meRobs, are just users like yourselves and not part of a development team. There is one developer: Stanley.

I understand, but how can I contact Stanley directly ? He should check the users posts here in the forum...
However I reported bug in another forum section as well, hope to get an answer...
