Firstly thank you for this great app, been using it for ages and its fantastic.

Can somebody please tell me why this version just will not work for me.

If i use the inbuilt profiles its fine but im after great avchd quality.

can you take a look at my 1080p profile and see why its not working with this version, but works with 1.15.0

--level 4.1 --aud --nal-hrd --vbv-bufsize 25000 --vbv-maxrate 25000 --rc-lookahead 50 --aq-mode 1 --aq-strength 0.8 --merange 64 --psy-rd 0.80:0.00 --no-dct-decimate --no-fast-pskip --filter -2,-2 --keyint 240 --min-keyint 24 --ref 3 --bframes 5 --b-pyramid strict --b-adapt 2 --direct auto --subme 9 --trellis 2 --partitions p8x8,b8x8,i4x4,i8x8 --me esa

Nice!

I like your program but, some Flv files tend to crash avs2avi.exe or just don't encode nicely.

Also is it possible to save the avisynth script for use on every encode?

I know the TN article I listed in previous post mentions profile 3.1 but the tech specs here ( http://www.apple.com/appletv/specs.html ) specifically state CAVLC.

Now personally I dont know much about either other than the spec for main profile says you should support both CAVLC and CABAC however Apple is known for not playing by the rules.

On separate note do you think you could add 960x540 as a resize option for those of us that have aTV's and is only way to do hi res video at 30fps?

OK why is it in mkv if you ripped it from a disk. It should be m2ts.

MakeMKV will rip directly to MKV.

Makes enforcing rule 6 problematic. That's why I always give people the chance to shoot themselves in the foot.

One giveaway is the use of a standard torrent filename, which is not the case here. Looks legit.

@Atak - Pulled down your aTV profile and will give it a shot tonight. Pulling down Elephants Dream to test with in case you need a sample uploaded. Should have an update later tonight.

@Atak - I did a test of Elephants Dream (http://orange.blender.org/download) which was a 1080p avi file.

Using the profile you uploaded, I noticed weightp was enabled which resulted in serious blockiness. With CABAC turned on the aTV seemed to struggle playing the video back.

I did a second encode using same profile and turning off CABAC and Weightp and the video playback was much smoother and there was no blockiness.

I created two 50MB sample files but am having difficulties getting them uploaded to mediafire. If I can get them uploaded later on I will post the links.

http://www.mediafire.com/file/uwniwj...AD_profile.mp4

http://www.mediafire.com/file/nykfzm...eightp_off.mp4

As for 720p@30fps. Still a no go. Video doesnt show up as available for playback.

I've been using your app for some time now and am very happy with it. Great job.

I know you probably get a ton of requests but I have one I'd like to get on the record. I prefer the mkv container for my encodes but also want the flexibility to use an external Dolby/DTS decoder when watching the videos. MKV can now handle Dolby True HD and DTS-MS audio streams.
Would you please allow for that in a future version?

Correction, DTS-MA is what I meant to say above and that is actually not supported in mkv yet. Only Dolby True-HD. Hopefully the DTS-MA
part will follow soon as well. Either way I'm actually fairly happy with the flac option. Just wanted to get my 2 cents in.

I have successfully encoded most of my m2ts files to mkv but the remaining ones always end up with the following AviSynth error message:

You could try using 1.15.0 instead.

Error msg states file cant be found. Problem as I see it is where is your temp directory. Easiest thing to do is stop using auto in the ripbot ini file and specify a location. Keep it simple and make a directory like C:\Temp.

Same results as above.
The old aTV profile has --no-cabac --weightp 0 It always seemed to work
fine for me. Then again the vbv buf size and max have changed to 14000 each
and so has the level from 3.0 to 3.1. I did as mmmmdonut did and got the
same results. Only I used independents day.

I don't think ATV was meant to play 30fps @ 720p.
