> I'd like to report a couple of bugs that I found, the first of them
> driving me crazy. I simply couldn't export using codec x264 (I had
> sound but no video) and I looked at all the possible solutions,
> updating MLT, checking python libraries, etc. Well, it was all much
> simpler than that. The file "video.py"
> (/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/openshot/classes/video.py) has this
> problem, at least for me, since everytime I tried to render files
> using libx264, I had the following output:
>
> [NULL @ 0x22e0900] [Eval @ 0x7fa2259f34c0] Invalid chars '.6' at the end
> of expression '0.6'
> [NULL @ 0x22e0900] Unable to parse option value "0.6"
> [libx264 @ 0x22e0900] broken ffmpeg default settings detected
> [libx264 @ 0x22e0900] use an encoding preset (e.g. -vpre medium)
> [libx264 @ 0x22e0900] preset usage: -vpre <speed> -vpre <profile>
> [libx264 @ 0x22e0900] speed presets are listed in x264 --help
> [libx264 @ 0x22e0900] profile is optional; x264 defaults to high
>
> All I needed to do was the following:
>
> if self.render_options["vcodec"] == "libx264":
> self.c.set("minrate", "0")
> self.c.set("b_strategy", "1")
> self.c.set("subcmp", "2")
> self.c.set("cmp", "2")
> self.c.set("coder", "1")
> self.c.set("flags", "+loop")
> self.c.set("flags2", "dct8x8")
> self.c.set("qmax", "51")
> self.c.set("subq", "7")
> self.c.set("qmin", "10")
> self.c.set("qcomp", "0.6") --->
> changed the value for "0,6", using a comma
> self.c.set("qdiff", "4")
> self.c.set("trellis", "1")
>
> The second one is much less important, but it also has to do with
> commas. Every time I click of preferences and I close the menu, on my
> "config.xml" file the value of the image size changes from "7" to
> "7,00", again giving me the following mistake:
>
>
> self.valImageLength.set_value(float(self.form.settings.general["imported_image_length"]))
> ValueError: invalid literal for float(): 7,00
>
> I haven't been able to fix it yet except by accessing the "config.xml"
> file and changing it manually to the default value, that is, "7".
>
> I think these issues can be easily fixed, so I hope that our
> developers include them for the future.
