3)download x64 build of x264 from your favorite builder
4)rename build to x264_64.exe then place it in x264 folder as in step 2
DONE!
with this workaround i'am noticing a speed increase of about 8% a very nice boost
maybe you can add a option for the user to choose what build to use x86 or x64 depending on there cpu then have StaxRip vfw4x264.exe->x264.exe(x86) or vfw4x264.exe->x264_64.exe(x64)

I'm with, and is not a problem, it is a strange behavior of the program, I will explain:

1 - I have 2 hds, "C" drive is empty and the unit "E" is the operating system Windows XP SP3;
2 - I set up initially StaxRip (installed on drive "E") to let the temporary folder within the program itself, and also marked the option to delete the temporary after the end of conversion;
3 - The odd behavior is this, when I set the temporary folder to the drive "E", the program does not delete the temporary after the conversion even though I checked the option, even when I set the folder to the "C , and an option to delete function, the program copies the log of the conversion to the same destination folder of the video. This is a bug?

Although it does not bother me, but I thought I should report.

Okay Folks,
i got the NV_Tools 2001 running with StaxRip!
(tested with DVD and Blue - Ray source)
not tested with VC1

@multitask:
change the Arguments in the DGIndexNV Demux configuration to the following:
-i %source_files_comma% -y 1 -o "%working_dir%\%source_name%.dgi" -a -h
this way it will work with multiple input files.
also there is no need for -e, because -h includes the exit comand.

You have to change the profiles settings in Filters to the following:

DGMultiSource = Loadplugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\dgdecnv2001\DGMultiDecodeNV.dll")%newline%DGMultiSource("%source_file%")
Change the path to your needs, so Staxrip will find DGMultidecodeNV.dll ;o)

If you want to do a manual cropping, exit the crop dialog with the exit command,not with the cross, otherwise Staxrip will crash.

Sometimes StaxRip crashes when loading the .dgi file, don't know why. But generally it works this way.

Hope this was usefull,
Daniel

Encoding for people..

I often encode long DVB recordings, usually more than tree hours.
This makes decoding to .wav impossible because of the 2GB limit of .wav's.

So I do use the direct cutting of the .mp2 method.

The problem is that when audio is encoded, I have two choices:
either cut audio with VdubMod, where some filters like fade in/out are not taken into consideration, resulting in a video track with fades and an audio track without fades
or use avisynth and nicaudio, but again cutting is done with vdubmod, so same output as above.

What I ask is:
when decoding of audio is done with avisynth, all filters (especially fades) to be included in the xxx_cutting.avs that is loaded on VdubMod, so as to get my fades into the audio track, just as I get them in the video track.

This was fixed a year ago or so, but somehow it broke after an update.

I think it's better to do all the DVB cutting things in ProjectX and Cuttermaran.
Normally i use projectX for demuxing and Cuttermaran for the cut.

After that you can load the resulting mpeg or TS files into StaxRip to convert....

I'll investigate it.

When it deletes the temp dir where it usually saves the log, where else should it save the log then?

@Desaster Dan

Thanks for the report, I received my Nvidia card and it runs, now I'll have to wait for neuron2 to get a license.

I've changed it to include all filters now, I'm not sure why I didn't do this in the first place. Since it also generates a wav this will only help if you target isn't too long. If it is we have to find another solution.

Why not use StaxRip?

yes, your x286_64 workarrounk works without problems, thanks again.

The other thing ist NV_Tools....
I player arround for a few hours now, and i had some StaxRip crashes. sometimes after cropping, (with or without x button)
and somtimes after compcheck.
the curious thing is, if i load the dgi file manually after the crash, i can do the compcheck without any prblems and proceed...

So i think, this is the end of what we can do, now Stax is the man, now as a proud nvidia owner...

yeah hopefully now with stax76 having a NV GPU to test with he will get StaxRip working smoother with DGIndexNV we wait for him to work his magic

Why not use StaxRip?

cause Transport streams are sometimes a litte bit tricky.
Ts/DVB is NOT mpeg standard.
In most cases you have problems with video/audio sync.
ProjektX and Cuttermaran are specialized tools for that.

So maybe it works also in Staxrip in the very most cases,
but using this two freeware tools it is the recommed procedure in the DVB-C comunity.
And: Never change a running......

multitask,
i had the same isssue whil my testing.
I't because staxrip don't find dgmultidecodenv.dll, and tries to use ffindex instead.
so check your path to dgmultidecodenv.dll. also possible you have a error in your script, (missin spaces, comma's etc.)

@MuLTiTaSK

I think there is a bug using ffms2 opening script as source file instead a normal source file.

@Desaster Dan

I have much experience with DVB since I'm using it since this crappy odsoft application and hardware decoder card. Even coded a DVB application with some special plugins. The ProjectX CLI was developed for StaxRip (it was called DVX 2002/2003 I think). Cutting with StaxRip never caused sync issues with DVB-S and DVB-C streams I've recorded. ATM I'm recording TS with DVBViewer and handle it directly with DGIndex, don't cause big sync issues so I'm skipping ProjectX, StaxRip still includes ProjectX but it's disabled now by default because it would ask for Java when it's enabled and some people don't need ProjectX.
