This means that if an +encoder process (x264 or Avisynth) stopps responding, it will be +terminated. This is done in order to ensure that the main program as +well as the other encoder processes can continue properly. More +specifically, a warning will be raised if the process does not respond +for one minute. If the process still didn't respond after five minutes, +it will be terminated and consequently the encoding job is aborted. In +some rare cases, your Avisynth script may take a very long time to +initialize and thus the process will be aborted before the encoding can +start. For example, this can happen if FFMS2/FFVideoSource takes a very +long time to index the source file. In that case, we recommend to index +the source file beforehand, e.g. by using the 'ffmsindex' tool. + + +8.
