Believe I found a litlle bug in the encoding client. If the connection times out for some reason the connect button stays disabled. In my case it was the first run of the latest encoding client and it wasn't allowed in the firewall. So the connction timed out. The connect button should be enabled after the connection timed out so you can reconnect after fixing the problem with the connection. Had to enter the ip in server 3 to be able to start the encode on the second machine.

Code:

Added: MKV can also be used in Distributed Encoding Mode.
Changed: 1 min chunks for CQ mode instead of 10 min
Fixed: not working 'Shutdown when Finished'
Fixed: error message in batch mode. Broken video file will be automatically discarded
Fixed: EncodingClient was using Domain-Name instead of Computer-Name
Fixed: Incorrect number of frames between passes in Distributed Encoding. Now number of frames in last chunk will be limited according to stat file
Fixed: corruption at the begining of the chunk. (Encoding Client will first analyze video and then prepare chunks according to I-Frame (key frame) position.)

Nice, now you've added MKV I'll have to give distributed encoding a go, any one got it working on WH Server 2011?

Any chance of adding option to sleep after encoding finishes please?

Fantastic news Atak! Thank you for adding the MKV support. That will help me greatly. Where can I find this version? Is it on the main page or is it still unreleased?

I am also interested to see if the chunking change is a plus or minus for CQ. Seems to me that creating 120 chunks as opposed to 12 is opening up a greater chance of error, but we will see. Any chance the chunking time could be an INI change?

I found some bug (MKV in distributed encoding hangs for some files) .

It shouldn't be problem because chunks are splited at keyframes.

Thanks for the update Atak. I would be happy to test the changes for you if you need it.

Also, I don't know if you know this, but there is a regression bug in x264 with trellis=2 and subme >=8 that can cause corruption. You may want to update the package with r2146.

Edit: Nevermind, I see that it is packaged with r2120. Should be fine.

On MKV distributed encodes is the "New Job" windows supposed to hang and say "Not Responding" for a few minutes before starting the Demux? Should I just consider that normal?

Yes its normal its scanning the file for frame data

I sort of figured as much, but I never had it do that before for so long. Also, I am getting more "Starting..." chunk hang-ups than I was getting before. I am sure it has to do with the fact there are so many more chunks in CQ mode now. Simply increases the odds of a hang-up.

I was ripping Leaving Las Vegas Blu-ray tonight with the new software running 1 minute chunks. Something very odd occurred with the final video. Occasionally, there are parts of the movie that have 1 or two frames from other parts of the movie put into it. Almost like it was not re-assembled correctly. I'm going to re-encode it again to see if the same thing happens.

Edit: I encoded Willy Wonka blu-ray and about every minute (or so), there is corruption for a frame or two.

Strange, I have only encoded a couple BD MKVs and so far, so good. I had problems with earlier versions (prior to the I-Frame split change). Are both of those movies VC-1?

Willy Wonka is VC1 while Leaving Las Vegas is AVC. I'm going to have to start watching more of what I've been encoding to see if there are any more problems.

Question.

Does anyone know what "Couldn't open input file in HIDE mode! Existing" means and possibly how to correct the issue? Thanks

Is it a size/space issue?

picman1 · 20th January 2012, 13:53

It looks like I have to encode subtitles (build into picture) to get the forced subtitles can anyone suggest what the best configuration would be to get the closest quality to the original video would be for BD. I want to encode the subtitles for Avatar and keep the quality as close as original, space is not an issue. Thanks

I use the "Very Slow" preset with the "Film" tune. I also use CQ 17.

Balthazar2k4 · 20th January 2012, 14:13

Definitely having more problems with "Starting..." hang-ups after the CQ split change. Had an encode hang overnight when it stalled on a chunk. Basically turned what should have been a 2-3 hour encode into almost 8 hours.

Trayman · 20th January 2012, 15:32

@rc71 I had the same problem with some of my dvds. It's dgindex that generates that error. It has something to do with invalid characters in the filenames.
I used ifoedit to remove some streams and made a new ifo file. After that it ran smoothly. Don't know what it reacted to only that my tinkering solved the problem. Will take a look again at my copy of A Clockwork Orange to see if i can isolate the error.
