Currently I just get an empty ffmpeg2pass-0.log and pass 1 is as
slow as pass 2. As expected he result is worse as well.
Uh-oh, I thought that’s what was supposed to happen (except for the
worse result part). I thought libx264 worked that way. I better
try it the other way!
I just tested doing pass both ways. It is true that ffmpeg’s log
appears to remain empty, while x265’s does not. But the output is
identical as near as I can tell, and putting pass as an ffmpeg option
was actually slightly faster (both passes about the same speed as
opposed to pass 1 being a bit slower via x265-params.
Hmm I just tried release x265 and with ffmpeg both my passes were the
same time, with x265-parans pass 1 was twice as fast. Quality was a bit
better min psnr wise with x265. Visually I could only really tell on the
first 10 frames - it seemed much the same after that. stats below show
that more was spent on I frames with x265-params.
OK, I bow to your greater knowledge and experience, and will start
using ‘pass’ in x265-params. Thank you!
I snipped some other "evidence" in my last post.
If you want to check outputs between the two ways look at the last
lines of the larger block of x265 [info].
with ffmpeg the last 2 lines of both pass 1 and 2 are the same for me -
x265 [info]: tools: rd=3 psy-rd=0.30 signhide tmvp strong-intra-smoothing
x265 [info]: tools: deblock sao
with x265-params they are different and refer to reading/writing stats.
x265 [info]: tools: rd=2 psy-rd=0.30 early-skip signhide tmvp fast-intra
x265 [info]: tools: strong-intra-smoothing deblock sao stats-write
x265 [info]: tools: rd=3 psy-rd=0.30 signhide tmvp strong-intra-smoothing
x265 [info]: tools: deblock sao stats-read
