The lossless conversion really did not take very long. Takes a lot longer to suck in a 4K then for it to do a lossless conversion. The advantage is that DE is still running why the VC-1 source is being demuxed and converted to lossless.

I suppose I can use that one fast machine in the house to do the VC-1s or I can just convert it to lossless myself for those sources. Once I convert video.mkv, can I delete the video.mkv.ffindex* files and will the index be built automatically when the job starts?

If you remove video.mkv.ffindex then Encodingclient will automatically reindex video.mkv.

Atak_Snajpera- just hoping you saw that some of us were having issues with distributed encoding on the latest release. Has to do with the files within the script being referenced in a local manner rather than in the shared format.

See post #16742 for details.

I'll try that new version of ffms. I assume I can just delete the ffindex files. I'll try that one job, and if it works, I'll nuke the ffindex files for the 60 or so jobs I have in the cue.

For testing purposes use some low resolution (720p) to speed up whole process. I just need to know that everything is correctly encoded at stitches.

I probably won't be able to get back with you about this for a few hours. Have to take care of something else right now.

No problem. My current testing shows that latest version of ffms2 is NOT frame accurate for AVC! (new chunk does not start from correct frame) VC1 seems to be ok despite detecting all frames as I-frame.

Latest ffms2 also is not frame accurate for HEVC! (some frames are missing at joining point).

The VC-1 source I used tested out great. Too bad it's broken for everything else.

VC-1 is just a pain. Back to making h.264 lossless before the conversion for me.

Do not worry. I will be using different version for different codecs.
ffms2 2014 -> AVC
ffms2 2017 -> HEVC
ffms2 2019 -> VC1 and rest

Let me know when this is implemented and I will start adding the vc1 jobs.

x265 is already used to stream. Netflix uses it if your device supports it.

Is H.266 supposed to come out soon?! It seems 264 still hasn't completely been replaced by 265 yet.

The workaround described in post #16742 works, but remember to create a network connection to your movie-source, which is valid from an elevated shell also.
If you create a network connection (or do a 'net use') with your ordinary user-rights, the workaround does not work.
Reason: RipBot264 runs in Administrator-mode and therefore the movie-source has to be accessable with elevated (Administrator-) rights.

Hope that helps.

A problem with version 1.24.1
Although starting and stopping on DE was fixed, if you abort a job and try to restart it, the problem re-appears

Afraid I'm in the same boat now. None of my DE jobs are running now. Restored from backup, turned off auto updates, and everything is working again.

see post #16773, this may help until Atak has fixed it.

Use latest version only if you have no old jobs in queue. Old jobs may not start due to incompatibility with ffms2.dll and old .index file.

You may try to manually fix this by editing each jobx.avs file.
If your source video is not AVC or VC1 then change ffms_latest to 2017 in line below #VideoSource

Code:
#VideoSource
LoadPlugin("C:\Users\Dave\Documents\Delphi_Projects\RipBot264\_Compiled\Tools\AviSynth plugins\ffms\ffms_latest\x64\ffms2.dll")
Code:
#VideoSource
LoadPlugin("C:\Users\Dave\Documents\Delphi_Projects\RipBot264\_Compiled\Tools\AviSynth plugins\ffms\2017\x64\ffms2.dll")
notepad++ should be able to do that in batch.
