Thanks should have thought about this myself really since I've had such a good responce to the guides.
Not sure what you by make a graph with meGUI ....my guides only uses a filter graph for direct interface with AVISynth and x264.exe which is completely seperate method to the MeGUI system that I wrote for others who don't like using so many .bat files. I may have misunderstood your comments, please clarify if so. Thanks for your input though its always good to have somebody knowledgeable to help with Qs and to point out thintgs, oh and thanks for the heads up on MeGUI will update later.
Cheers,
Jiff.
Jiff, thanks for your kind response, nice to being here.
You can give it a go. You don't need to have a BD burner.
I also make graphs as direct interface for avs since pin info is not recognized by mostly used tools and it is more flexible method in selecting filters independently...

You use two methods in re-encoding:
1)X264 directly,
2)X264 indirectly via MeGui.
What i meant here is related with MeGui; your mkv outputs can be used directly by AviSynt Creator (which is a tool coming with MeGui) without any need of manual graph- which mostly hated by the end users, in creating automatic avs files- another hated one, which will be accepted by MeGui as source file.
And instead of writing codes preset profiles can be used easily.

MeGui automatically loads all needed secondary software including AviSynt Script Creator (which makes auto avs files from your source files.)
Open MeGui and select: x264:SA-HD DVD (encoder settings) and MKV (file format)
Open AviSynth Script creator under Tools and if you want to config the avisynt profile select what you want (i selected just input and crop)

Untick Resize and tick crop and "Auto Crop"

And cilick "save", you will select the name of the avs file which will be created; i selected newest.avs.

Now MeGui will open created avs file, change the output name-in my case i made newest_out.mkv

Lets have a look at the avs file created by AviScriptCreator:
Code:
DirectShowSource("C:\\Users\
ica\\Desktop\\Newest\
ewest.mkv",fps=23.9759856527702,audio=false)
crop( 0, 146, 0, -144)
(BTW, i normally create my avs files using graph since i fell free myself in selecting demuxers and decoders-see my thread)
Click "Auto Encode" and select these on opening popup window:

Select "Queue"

Don't care about this popup and select "yes" and start encoding:

2.2.7- Re-encode the video with MeGui:
How?
I think you are familiar with this message as our friend D2VCreator never recognizes TS pin info:

so i think you have two ways:
1)Converting video of remuxed TS to mkv via Haali under Graph: (since demuxing again to h264 and remuxing to mkv is no handy with MkvMerge and no way for VC1 files.)
Haali Splitter > Matroska Muxer (output.mkv)

And AviSyntScriptCreator will recognize the mkv files.
Default demuxer and decoder will be used in this case.(Running graph on the back-stage)
In my case default filters are Haali and WM Video Decoder DMO:

2)Preparing a graph using the filters as you wish and making a manual avs and opening this avs with MeGui.
Here is what i selected in my own on-purpose graph;
File Source(Async) > Arcsoft MPEG Demux > Arcsoft Video Decoder selected as independent of the default filters:

best.
