@dlflannery

your answer is a good aswer too !
if you cannot evaluate pro/cons mean new audio plugin is ok for you !

@pdjm
attention: Adjust CRF Profile is to use ONLY when you answer "HIT MEDIA SIZE" on crf question.

about the inderlace: the phrase "Type is determined to be ..." is written only for NOT PROGRESSIVE source files.

@Prospero424
thanks, thanks ! you spotted a very ugly error !
automkv will double count the size of audio.... only with ts files
Fixed in next release !

@delacroixp
in next version the queue module got update. AutoMKV will save for every job its xml profile, so will be possible to "Use this profile" with queue

i hope to not break anything...

Gr8... will each job need a separate folder or will many jobs be able to use 1 folder, 1 temp folder and can each job have a different xml (profile) ?

Also, if I rip 3 movies in IFO mode into 1 folder (assume each movie is 1 file), including the IFO file and rename them all accordingly... movie1.VOB, movie1.IFO... movie2.VOB, movie2.IFO... etc
Will AutoMKV and/or DGIndex encode all 3 movies correctly ?

Btw
You must break something... 10 steps fwd, 1 step bkwd... only GOD gets it right the first time.

in next update the queueXXX.ini (jobs) and the new x264queueXXXprofile.xml goes in the automkv directory, so there is no need to have as many folders as jobs. Even the temp folder could be one only

no, sorry. each full rip in one folder. OR put all in one folder, then create the d2v files for each movie and demux only the audio you want (named accordly to movie name).Then you can queue the d2v+audio works

Another try, still cannot find vbs files

@buzzqw

I tried again last night. The AutoMKV folder is on the root level of the S: drive and when I woke up today I had the "cannot find file temp\mkvmaudio.vbs" error again. If I double-click on the file I got a Script Host Error saying that in Line 2, Character 1, it couldn't find the file. I get the same cannot find file error for mkvmaudio2.vbs, movielenght.vbs, and deint.vbs, all of which are in S:\AutoMKV077\temp\ right now.


P.S.: If you're getting ready to do a new release, it would be movielength.vbs.

Ah, I was looking in \temp. Well, the files from that attempt were all thrown out when I tried again. I saw the line saying what size the muxxed file was but I thought the \DVD folder only held the ripped DVD files, and I didn't see any files that matched the listed size anywhere else.

I'll see. I turned off the antivirus and am running again right now. Will AutoMKV work with .NET framework 2.0? As that is what I have.

Quote:

In the Script Host Error message? I don't know. It did not specify. I will try taking screenshots next time it happens.

I'll try that if this attempt freezes on those steps again.
Thank you for your help.

Problem with subs

Hey guys, I'm having a problem getting subs in my foreign XvidD encodes which I am afraid is a bad case of "user error". I've tried a number of things including burning them in and a number of different movies, all of which I have had no suceess. VLC player simply doesn't show them and the subtitle track IS selected and enabled. WMP & WMP classic shows the extra black space at the bottom of the screen but displays nothing, captions are enabled. If anyone could take a look at the attached and steer me in the right direction, I would be very greatfull. This is really the first hiccup I've hit with this fine piece of programming.

Cheers,
the other bhh

Container/codec=wmv/wmv
Resize filter =none
deinterlacer=film
removeGrain(mode=2)

No subtitles

and the now the movie is about half the viewing size as before (movie.avs does say 720) and the sounds is still out of sync.

I will try again with these settings tonight, but I'm going to re-rip the movie with ripit4me.

a little note about subtitles and WMV

first of all for view subtitles is needed http://www.free-codecs.com/download/DirectVobSub.htm and if installed in Haali Media Splitter allowed to load vsfilter

second: in wmv isn't possible muxing subtitle ! you must "embed/burn in" subtitles, by checking on Advanced Settings "Burn Subtitle in Movie"

Thanks much though perhaps we (you) could use the idea of watch folders as implemented by Dr DivX (http://stage6.divx.com/Dr_DivX/show_video/1010870) which would allow numerous rips in 1 folder to be automatically encoded according to a specific profile.

As to the default resolution options... Auto, 720, 704, etc... perhaps you could include 'Original'.
I realise that most people use encoding to crunch or compress their movies by 60%, 80% or more... mostly through downsizing and then partly through the elimination of extraneous audio tracks & extras. Only a small fraction of the compression is actually due directly to the new codec... though H264 (Mpeg4 P10) has very a significant advantage over Mpeg2 material.
Nothing beats the quality of original resolution by eliminating the downsizing process.

Maybe this isn't exactly the appropriate place to ask this, but it has happened with two dvd ripped movies that subtitles are not shown on video...
(would it be illegal to name those two movies, or could I do that for reference purposes? )

I encoded those movies both with autoMKV and Nero Recode and the subtitles are not shown, although I have all necessary software installed and did not omit any relevant step in the encoding procedure...

DirectVobSub loads, the "Show subtitles" setting is selected, so as the relevant subtitle, but they are not actually displayed...

I even tried ripping the subs with a different program, removing those embedded and merging the new subtitle files to no avail...
Even having internal AND external subs did not help and choosing between the two...

What is at fault here? Should I use an earlier version of DirectVobSub, or is it due to a bad rip? (I re-ripped both movies 2-3 times...in this case, maybe not all protection was properly removed ? )

My job finished early this morning and I am pleased to report that my file came out A-OK. All audio tracks, subs, ect. But now I need to reactivate my Antivirus software and try to find out where my issues were in the past.

hi !

thanks for your vote. now with 3 to 0 ( holy cows, 3 votes only, what the hell ! sometime i think to quit. ) seems that new plugin is preferred.
And i prefer it too.

fogbav, feel free to put your experience in the wiki !
Hi buzzqw !

Sorry that i am not so present here in the forum as i was in the past. I have some big changes in my Job so give me 2 weeks or so and i will do all the tests and bring back my lazy buddy in here again ..8)

The problem is ... your Program is getting near perfect now ... and so all the freaks out there seems to be some kind of "pleased". Please ... never give up ... you do a very great job in here ... even if it gets some kind of silent (3 Votes only).

Best IT is when you here nothing about the IT ....8) Thats the time it is running kind of perfect ... same with your program.

How would I do a grayscale encode in AutoMKV? I remember there being a checkbox on MkvMagic's advanced settings. I might be ripping a DVD of an old B&W film soon and would like to reap the space savings if I can define it as a grayscale job.
