RipBot264 v1.18.3 - Simple and easy to use GUI -> IPOD . PSP . CONSOLES . BLURAY

[Ajax_Undone]

No. Well it depends on the encryption of the disc. Are you using an on the fly decrypter like anydvd...

ripbot is just going to demux (i.e. rip) the selected streams into your temp folder anyways. so it's not like you'd be encoding from the disc

[thebasa]

Yeah using anydvd HD with blurays and normally I use the anydvd ripper and then point ripbot at the m2ts on the mounted iso, but it would be cool if I could just read it from disc and skip the ripping step? Is there risk of skips when reading from disc that there wouldn't be reading the ripper-verified complete copy from hard drive?

[Ajax_Undone]

No. you should be ok

[thebasa]

Ok, for some reason I thought it would be frame serving from disc but it demuxes first so I guess a successful demux is as solid an indication of no errors as the ripper copying successfully. Thx

I'll try on another computer

[paxton]

ok, so I just found this piece of software this evening. I've looked around and can't find a good tutorial. I'd like it to use with my BluRay movies. Would someone kindly point me in the right direction. I did get through around 30 pages, but 3 years of postings are difficult to weed through.

Hello Atak,
I dont know if this is where I would report a problem with RipBot264 but I noticed that 24fps sources are not automatically converted to 30fps using the iPod/iPhone profile.
Im sure you are aware that iPod Touch and iPhone both require 30fps for video playback. I realize RipBot264 has a speed setting that can be changed in the properties. However, that particular tool uses the AviSynth "AssumeFPS" filter which naturally changes the speed of the video playback.
I believe a better way to change the frame rate without affecting the playback speed would be to use the AviSynth "ConvertFPS" filter which uses a "Blend Mode" by default. It introduces minor motion blur during action scenes but it's very minimal and doesnt affect the quality of the experience as viewed on the portable devices. I tested the filter out on one of the AVS scripts that your tool generates and it seems to work fine AND the video playback speed is not affected.

Please let me know if I am looking at this the wrong way or if I am missing something =)

Thanks!

That's the only thing I saw there.



I don't understand the wavpcm and the audio selection screen.
If not much trouble, please show me what it is w/ screenshots.

EDIT

It seem if I changed it into Base3.0 profile, I can't re-encode.
I was always using base4.0.
I'll ty figuring out what's wrong, but help is still needed and would be appreciated.

Is there a way to make Ripbot encode the audio and video simultaneously? On longer files it can take 10 minutes and up to encode the audio since it's only using one CPU core, before the video encoding actually starts.

[essential]

i read through a lot of this thread and didn't see this question so forgive me if it has been asked.

on ripbot 1.15.1 when i load my video in, in the lower left hand corner it says, "please wait, indexing video stream."

main issue:
on the newest version, 1.16.0 nothing happens. when i load my video it doesn't say anything in the lower left hand corner, and my video never loads. i've left it for a long time hoping it would eventually load. i'm back to 1.15.1 for now. is this a known issue? is there a fix?

secondary question:
also, this is a preference question. is there a general rule when encoding 1080p down to 720p, do you keep the DTS 5.1 or go down to the 640kpbs? i've been going down to the 640kbps because the video kbps seems so much higher, but i didn't know if the general rule is to keep 5.1 DTS?

thanks.

[stryker412]

I have a show that is VC1, and I'm converting the mkv from 1080 to 720. All the episodes except one went through fine using 1.16.0. For this one episode I kept getting avs2yuv.exe crashing. I switched back over to 1.15.1 and it went through fine. Any ideas?

Where did you get the source file?

Straight from my BD.

that's up to you. I would say DTS has a more full, lifelike sound and therefore should be kept. Atak would say it's a waste of space and you should use AC3. AC3 will take up a lot less space as it's 640kbps vs DTS which is generally 1509/1536 kbps (that's why your bitrate with AC3 is so much higher at the same target size)

Hey Atak,
I have some AVI files here with two audio tracks. When I import the file in Ripbot, it only demuxes the second audio track, not the first. The first is german, the second english. I only need the german stream. Is the error caused by FFMPEG or is there something missing in the command line?

[Denner]

I am also having the AVCHD muxing problem (after switching to the new RipBot264 v1.16.0 ) when re-encoding my Blu-Ray's to AVCHD.

Converting to .mp4 for my iPad is working fine and I also tried encoding a Blu-Ray to .mkv and no problem there either, so I guess I will have to go back to an older version to solve the problem and wait for an update that solves the AVCHD muxing bug ?

I know that I can abort RipBot while muxing and mux manually, but I was really happy with the option to have the RipBot shut down my computer when it was done

Thanks for a great program Atak_Snajpera, I have been using RipBot for the past year, and this is the first time I am having any problems, so I am very impressed with RipBot and stability in general

Keep up the great work

Best Regards
Denner

I`m using latest RipBot and when making x264 v1.16.0 and when encoding movies to 1280 x 5xx first pass using like no more than 20-30% cpu and second pass no more than 65-80% on my Intel core quad 8300 @3Ghz. I also uncheck that low priority button and still encoding first pass with only 7 fps and second pass 6 fps

Should i replace x264.exe with core2 optimized code?

edit: i try replaced and didn`t help

[gigirex]

Hello everybody!
I had the chance to appreciate Atak's nice app.
Only one problem: how to preserve automatically the original quality?
The source file bitrate was 19Mb, but the resulting output bitrate was only 4mbits.
I have attached the Mediainfo report from the source and the output file.
Thanks for every help

avs2yuv crash = video decoder crash.

2-pass and 19000 kbps
