Hi, I posted my issues partially in the RB-Opt forum but here's the gist of it (I felt like starting a new thread since it could potentially be an RB issue)
Backing up Futurama S3 D1 R1:
Extracted into an .iso with dd 3.5.1.0, mounted with deamontools 3.46
prepared with dvd-rb .62, the project contains 6 vts'es with the actual episodes and 2 vts'es with extras. The bitrate gets more or less evenly distributed between all vts'es but i used rb-opt to lower the bitrate on the extras in order to get a bit more on the actual episodes. Now, the problem i'm experiencing is that CCE stops encoding one of the segments in VTS10. First I thought it was something to do with RB-OPT because in the very beginning i was playing with bitrates on all VTSes and not only the extras. So I asked robot1 about it and he recommended checking the segment in question for too low of a bitrate and reencoding it in CBR. Well, I found the segment where CCE used to freeze and made a small .ecl with the necessary stuff in it only i changed multipass vbr to CBR like it was recommended. Same problem, CCE stops encoding and just sits there with 0 CPU activity. I tried 2.50.01.00 and 2.66.01.07 with no luck. I know it's not the system or the software because I constantly use those in the big3 method so... If anyone has any recomendations please LMK
P.S. I made the ecl manually and not just by doing a resume encode in RB because after i killed the cce process, eclcce kept calling it and went on to partially encode other segments so I didnt want to risk having a bad/incomplete encode.
