I have this Geforce RTX 4060 8GB and never tried encoding with it, next project I will try it with your settings.

I have a GeForce GTX 1660.

If you look at this link you'll see that your card has more capability than mine (like AV1 encoding). I would guess it is faster too.

Nice card, but I can't get one. The driver is Win10/11.

Give the software a run and see what you think of the results.

Thanks for the link and info, will test with GPU on the next project.
Will run one encode with GPU and one with software/CPU and compare them.

Be aware GPU encoding is awful for grainy content. You should use software encoding with that kind of content.

That's interesting... Although I don't have the right GPU to do it, it seems odd that whatever you are using to do the mechanics of encoding, I don't understand why whether the GPU does it or the CPU, aren't the math and computations exactly the same? Why are there different results...? Just curious...

For a project I had to convert a music video clip from PAL to NTSC. I used GPUENCC with INTEL GPU. The resulting video was fine but the audio was out of sync and kept getting further out of sync. Then I changed GPUENCC to reencoding with NVIDIA GPU and the audio in the result was completely in sync but the video was somewhat stammering or stuttering. The length of the original file was 3:32 minutes. The INTEL GPU changed that to 3:41 minutes while the NVIDIA GPU kept the 3:32 intact.

Interesting. I personally haven't had any issues with that any kind of content using GPU.

No, software encoding is slower but can use more advanced/complex ways to save bits.

Try something like Ghostbusters (the original one), even at BD50 bitrate the output created by NVEnc looks denoised and has this pulsating effect, the one encoded with x265 is superior in every way.

Ah, good to know, thanks! Now I don't feel like I'm missing out so much... For me, re-encoding to a BD25 (movie only) even with very strong but compatible settings might take the better part of two hours. A film that is smaller and doesn't need quite so high settings may take about 45 minutes, so that is fine with me.

Unfortunately the resizing and syncing, etc, is done by NVENCC and QSVENCC (I think they use the FFMPEG libraries). You might want to try downloading a newer version of those and see if you have better luck.

The newer versions didn't do it for me. So I used the video from the INTEL GPU and combined that with the audio that I stretched with 104,27%. It gave a good result. It's a pity that I couldn't get GPUENCC to do it. But I understand that is up to QSVENCC. And the choppy video was the fault of NVENCC.

UPDATE

I found an other way to get it done. Using BD_RB with the hidden option IMPORT_PAL_TO_FILM=1. It gave an excellent result. And BD_RB did the stretching for me.

Hello!

I have tried the last 3 versions & the current beta version, with & without the add-ons, different versions of AVISynth, and using different encoders, but I still get the error message - PredictAndEncode() 00006 2803

Thank you for any assistance!!!

You get this error when the source stream was encoded at a framerate that is not allowed in Blu-ray. Acceptable framerates are: 23.976, 24, 25, 29.97, 50, 59.94 -- even then some are only compliant with certain frame sizes.

So how can I fix it? I am just shy of being able to just burn it -- 24,963MiB vs disc size of 23,866MiB. Can that much be done with Overburn?

I can tell you that it is an overflow error, and that it is probably happening while trying to calculate space requirements (based on the 2803 error locator code). But that's about it.

There is more than enough space on the drive (over 100gb). It gets to ~93% Overall Progress. This was using FRIMSOURCE for Frame Serving (I've tried all the others except DGDecNV, as I do not have that exe). I have also tried AUTOMATIC QUALITY -


UPDATE: DoH! It was a bad file in the mix :-(

Sorry if I missed it, but is it expected that GPUENCC/NVEncC removes DV/DoVi profile 7.6 (dvhe.07.06) when re-encoding video? Thankfully it does at least leave the HDR10 there.

The program hangs on trying to convert Opus audio.

[MrVideo]

I want BDRB to read in a disc and not re-encode any of the videos it will end up keeping. The following is in the config:

FORCE_NOENCODE=1
FORCE-ENCODE=0

Yet, BDRB goes ahead and encodes anyway. Is there something else that needs to be set?
