Ok, this is getting frustrating... I must be doing something wrong. I'm using the same settings but now using x264. You'll notice that I have "Use Best Decoder" but can confirm that it is using ffdshow, within ffdshow I have set VCI decoding to WMV9.

try something faster, slower preset isn't mean to be fast
with 7000 bitrate you can achieve good results with Medium preset BHH

slow eac3to
Hi,
I have noticed interesting thing. When transcoding DVD to MKV(copy audio, X264), jobs done by eac3to are relatively slow in compare with jobs done by x264. When I looked on what is happening, I have found out, that x264 is utilizing CPU on 100%, while eac3to is utilizing CPU only around 8%. Do you have any idea, why eac3to does not use "whole" CPU? It could be much faster then. THX |

eac3to could be used for audio extraction or anduio encoding or audio piping to other audio encoders...
anyway neither eac3to or other audio encoders (only nero aac iirc) are smp optimized moreover eac3to can be severly slowdown by disk since it will scan vobs either way.. try to ask to eac3to thread BHH

it could be dangerous..
i suggest to add to queue the job AND manually add START in the same line of audio encoding BHH

1) x264 uses all cores - audio encoding will be stealing cpu cycles from x264 2) audio encoding is very fast - it takes less than 4min to encode whole Watchmen track (2h:42min 5.1 ac3 -> 2.0 aac on my Q6600@3ghz)

Hi,
since I remember I've always had troubles with compressing my hdtv recordings. I think I've used all the tools but the results were always same, either the apps crash or the outcome is totally unsatisfactory, the playback is jerky and totally unwatchable. I put much hope in HDConvertToX but it doesn't work as expected too. This brings me to the conclusion that maybe there is something wrong with my hdtv recordings or maybe my pc? So here is my big big request to the pros here to take the sample from the below link and compress it. Maybe someone more experienced will point me what I'm doing wrong. Here is the link to the original .ts file: Code:

http://rapidshare.com/files/258786059/proba_int.mkv Code:
http://rapidshare.com/files/258784358/proba_deint.mkv So once again, please, I will be very grateful to everybody who will take some time to examine the files and give me some hints what to do to make it look good! Thanks in advance! |

Everything worked fine but now i get no muxing anymore.
x264 encodes and when its completed, i get no mkv file. in the job folder there is, an .h264 file and the ac3 file. i thougt the problem was, that i have installed mkvtoolnix, but even after deinstalling the same error. |

most probably the subtitle extraction gone wild
make sure in temp folder there is "hdc_subs.idx" try manually launch vsrip.exe (from \applications folder) and rip the subs BHH

Thanks for the awesome utility! I am having some problems, however. When I analyze an m2ts file on my harddrive (ripped from BluRay) it gets an "Problems analyzing input file" message. The error log shows:
Code:
AviSynth 2.58, build:Dec 22 2008 [08:46:51]DirectShowSource: couldn't open file C:\Users\Rick\Videos\bd-tm1\BDMV\STREAM\00000.m2ts: The source filter for this file could not be loaded. (C:\Users\Rick\Downloads\HDConvertToX_2.0.424.3356\analysis\analyze.avs, line 8) |

Hi, buzz! Well, when I originally tried it out I had just installed the latest version of the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack, which I assumed had all prerequisites (program didn't complain.) After that didn't work, I downloaded each of the prerequisites from the posted links. Still no go. Then I tried installing XP into VirtualBox and installing everything to a brand spanking-new machine, and still got that error. I'm stumped! Clearly I'm doing something wrong...

VobSub subtitle format
Hi,
I would like to return to one topic we have discussed already. When transcoding MKV to MKV (e.g. to change MPEG2 to X264), there is problem if source MKV contains subtitles in VobSub format, because eac3to cannot handle this format. Therefore such transcoding will fail, or I can do it, but lost the subtitles, or I can do it manually with mkvextract. Wouldn't be possible to make the change in HDC, so that it is using eac3to only for subtitles in formats known to eac3to, but in the case of unknown format to use automatically mkvextract? Thanks! |

@rickatnight11
make sure you have set in ffdshow, WMV9 as decoder for VC1! @marklar ... not so easy (i have best hope on an update eac3to ...) BHH
