That is the same thing that happened to me. I somehow went from PC gaming to video encoding addict. Last year I picked up a Core i7 920 D0 Stepping and an Asus P6Tv2 Deluxe along with 6GB DDR3 1600 memory. I overclocked the i7 to 4ghz with HT on and I can encode a movie in single pass CQ18 @ 720p in about an hour and a half. I haven't tried 1080p so I can't say, but the upgrade was well worth it. I have successfully OC'ed the processor to 4.3, but it just runs too hot for my taste and I have to keep the fan running full tilt. Plus, as you mentioned, LGA1366 will allow for migration to the Gulftown CPU. Anyways, the 920 is definitely an OC'ing dream and you should buy it while you can.

Occasionally the 3-2-3-2 etc cadence is munged at the local affiliate but for the most part simple IVTC works IME. |

First of all let me say thanks for your work on ripbot264. I was absolutely stunned at the quality you can get from a blu-ray down to 4gb on main movie. I always use avchd format, lock to 4gb and have never been disappointed. I have a quick question about subtitles. When I first choose the m2ts file and it does it's analysing, it shows the english subtitle, but after I click okay and do all my settings, when I go to click selectable subtitles, it shows nothing in the box. I then have to click the plus "+" button and navigate to the temp folder, job1 and choose it there. Is there some default I can set up or is this the way it works. I'm good either way. Again, fantastic program, thanks for your efforts. Phil |

I was just wondering whether my encode times were normal... It's taking from 10 to 15 hours (usually around 12) to encode a BluRay movie with idx/sub subtitles. I'm using default settings. My setup is a Core 2 Duo P8600 @ 2.40GHz, 4GB of RAM, Win 7 64bit, and an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4670. Do those sound like normal transcoding times, or am I doing something wrong and taking too long because of it?

you have only 2 cores with slow clock so your times are correct

Atak - my hard disc crashed and I lost all the old versions of ripbot. I really liked 1.13 (I prefer the simple audio conversion - core dts or 640kbps core from True HD , instead of the wav/flac method - maybe a choice in the ini file could be offered ) Please could you give a link to 1.13 - Thx for your help.

The 860 vs 920 thing has driven me nuts! I think you are absolutely right about the difference between the X58 and P55 (et al.) chipsets. I currently have two 8800GT cards in SLI, but I'll never do it again. It's too expensive for the performance return, and I mostly game on my PS3/360/Wii now. Very rarely do I play a game on the comp these days. I had spec'ed out a Biostar Tpower 55i with the 860 for my brother who is interested in BD conversion as well. For x264, I know it's all about the processor speed, but I wondered if the difference between dual and triple channel RAM on the P55 and X58, respectively, made any appreciable impact...at least as far as video encoding is concerned? |

I had been struggling with whether to spend the $1,000 or so on a new i7 rig or a NAS, but the new rig is getting more and more tempting Besides, I think this C2Q has enough power to be a nice little server in its own right |

In my case I have turned my main computer into my server. It stays on pretty much all the time (since I am almost always encoding) and so I just keep stacking drives in it. I am looking at some NAS boxes now, but I just can't justify the expense... yet. |

Thank you for a great program
I have some mkv files not compliant with 1920x824 and 1280x526,,,If I use RipBot to make my mkv files compliant with 1920x1080 and 1280x720 AVCHD to play with PS3,,the size and quality will keep the same original or will be reduce ?? Last edited by maldino800; 19th February 2010 at 18:46. |

Regarding the NAS, I've really looked hard a Synology and NetGear. Both have some great products, but you're paying A LOT for some hardware that really isn't that impressive. You can build a cheap AMD machine that kills the power of those little boxes, but of course it's all about the software. Synology software looks fantastic, and it's about the only thing giving me pause from just building my own and running FreeNas...or possibly being a masochist and going with Windows Home Server lol |

2) You can use one of the tools in RipBot called "TSMuxer" to generate an .m2ts file that will play on the PS3. You just need to make sure the audio codec is compatible. Your MKV file will be bigger when generating an AVCHD, but if you reconvert using RipBot, you can specify the file size in 2-pass mode. |

As for the NAS, that is where I am heading. I have a spare computer that I am tempted to drop FreeNAS on and start piling on the hard drives. |

I'm going to have to say you're both wrong. the encoding time is going to depend on these main factors:
resolution - 720's will process significantly faster than 1080's aspect ratio - any low aspect ratios take longer, like 1.85 or 1.78 (there are more pixels to analyze) movie length - of course the longer the movie the more frames and time to process Last edited by pacaveli211; 19th February 2010 at 22:12. |

When I was using 2-Pass, Size locked to 8GB it would take about 10-14 hours with my quad core. When I moved to CQ=18 the times went down to 4-6 hours.
