Debugging x265 encoder in Visual studio 10

[Former user]

I have build successfully the x265 1.3 code in visual studio but i cannot debug it in Visual studio 10. Please provide possible help.

If you built it in Visual Studio, then all you need to do is make sure you are building for the Debug configuration, then make the 'cli' project the startup project, configure a command line for it, then hit F5

Thank you for replying! I did as you mentioned but the output command window flashes for a second with errors as attached on the output window of VS10.

I guess you are not giving any command line switches.. like stated in this link - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3697299/passing-command-line-arguments-in-visual-studio-2010

At a minimum specify an input video and output bitstream like "--input <>.y4m --output <>.hevc". You can pick up y4m files from here - https://media.xiph.org/video/derf/
