RB Farm v1.7 - server farm for faster DVD Rebuilder encodes

HERE is a link to the current version of RB Farm. The zip file size should be 25,585.

This thread describes the development and testing of RB Farm, an assistant program to DVD Rebuilder. RB Farm allows multiple PCs to work together on a network to perform a faster CCE encode than could be performed with a single PC.

1.7 - Added batch processing functionality. You can queue up multiple jobs and they will be processed in order.

1.6 - Upgraded auto encode functionality. You no longer need to press the encode button on a single PC to start the encode process. This should allow one click functionality on a farm. You should be able to press "prepare" in DVD Rebuilder and RB Farm will automatically do the rest.

1.5 - Fixed some problems with "rebuild automatically"

1.4 - Added auto rebuild
The "auto rebuild" check box will cause the current instance of RB Farm to attempt to rebuild the project after encoding using DVD Rebuilder. You should only select this option on the PC where DVD Rebuilder is installed and where you ran the prepare phase. DVD Rebuilder should be running with the settings for the current project correctly chosen, i.e., audio streams deselected, etc. The mode should not be one click mode, and "suppress warning prompts" should be selected.

1.3 - Added auto encode functionality
The "auto encode" check box will cause the current instance of RB Farm to periodically detect if a job is ready to be encoded in the d2vavs directory. If a job is ready, RB Farm will automatically join in and process the next available chunk.

1.2 - Added support for CCE Basic. You have to type in the EXE file name manually on the "path to ECLCCE" line.

1.1 - Fixes CCE 2.5 support
