[MPlayer-users] Lossless h264 Encoding

[Ognjen Bezanov]

Hello!

I want to be able to encode to lossless h264 streams using 
mplayer/mencoder, but I have had no luck so far.

I scoured the web and the mailing-lists and so far the only thing I have 
found is a thread (url: 
http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mencoder-users/2005-December/002293.html) 

specifying that setting qp_constant=0 should give me lossless encoding.

All well and good, except that when I try setting that option I get the 
following error:

"Option x264encopts: Unknown suboption qp_constant"

Has mplayer changed the x264 options for lossless compression? How would 
I enable lossless h264 in mplayer now?

Thanks.


Ogi.
