Common problems:
1) Error message in Media Player Classic or other decoding problem (avs2avi.exe crashes)
Uninstall all codec packs and then reinstall AviSynth , Haali Media Spliter , ffdshow. XP users also must install Windows Media Player 11!
2) x264 crashes
check cpu stability in LinX. check memory in memtest86
3) FLAC conversion is not available for DTS-MA

Q: What does 4.1 profile do over 4.0 and would 4.1 be better for working with HD DVD/Blu Ray discs?
A: According to wiki maximum bitrate in 4.0 high profile is limited to 25Mbps. 4.1 is limited to 62.5Mbps. That's all!


Changelog

^ nice going mate!

will check it out as i need to do a few vids for ps3.

just noticed, u must have ffdshow? i don't really want to install ffdshow as i prefer separate codecs. any way around this?

EDIT: just tried it on a lil sample, i wasn't asked to install ffdshow, just started the process. very easy prog to use!

[Jerry_Sm@rt]

Very nice GUI,easy to use.
Why not making the first pass faster,like this:

x264.exe --pass 1 --bitrate 800 --stats ".stats" --bframes 3  --filter 0,0 --subme 1 --analyse none --vbv-maxrate 25000 --me dia --thread-input --progress --no-psnr --no-ssim --aq-strength 0 --aq-sensitivity 0 --output NUL "hh.avs" 

@echo+

x264.exe --pass 2 --bitrate 800 --stats ".stats" --ref 3 --mixed-refs --bframes 3 --subme 5 --b-pyramid --bime --weightb  --filter 0,0 --analyse all --8x8dct --vbv-maxrate 25000 --thread-input --progress --no-psnr --no-ssim --aq-strength 0 --aq-sensitivity 0 --output "hh.mkv" "hh.avs"

P.S:PSP really takes 3 bframes?

Are you sure You didn't install FFdshow? RipBot264 does simple check in registry every time at the beginning. If key [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\GNU\ffdshow] wasn't found you wouldn't be able to encode anything.

Jerry_Sm@rt:

Why not but before I change anything I would like to know what would be a disadvantage? (quality loss,file size not accurate...)

PSP really takes 3 bframes?

Yes! PSP plays movies with 3 bframes without any problems! My PSP has never had problems with any movie/anime.

...sharktooth's PD-PSP profile uses 3 b-frames, too.

@Atak_Snajpera
Maybe some psnr loss,but I really can not tell the differences between a fast 1st pass encoded movie and a normal 1st pass encoded movie(same bitrate).If I got a faster cpu, I would not care about it.
What's your psp version?3.5?I'm still running 2.71se

[Atak_Snajpera]

At the moment my PSP version is still 3.50 but in few days when my Lumines game arrives I will switch to 3.40 OE-A

Yes, I don't have FFdshow installed. But I did have it previously..

EDIT: Those keys are still there.

[Hyper_Thread]

Ripbot264 fail to open any supported format & display an error message : '25.0000' is not a valid floating point value. Even if try to open NTSC file ('29.9700' is not.... in this case)
Avisynth v2.57, HaliMediaSpliter, FFdshow & .Net runtime v2.0 are installed properly (i'm using other GUIs with no problems)

[RussianPsycho]

@Atak_Snajpera,

i get this error too:

[Atak_Snajpera]

Problem with decimal symbol has been fixed in new version (v.1.0.1)

[Hyper_Thread]

1- Not all of us are using the MT version of Avisynth, so why do you put SetMode(2) to the script when Deinterlace is activated ?! with official version, your script fail.
2- Tdeint don't give the optimal result with mthreshL=0. In most cases, Tdeint( order=0 or 1, full=false) can produce a good picture (this is my personal opinion).
2- The PC Profile is very slow (i don't try the 2 others), can you add a "balanced" profile.

Keep the good work.

[~bT~]

^ MT is not added if you're not using an MT version of AviSynth.

well, that's my experience anyway.

cheers for the fixed version!

[Atak_Snajpera]

Not all of us are using the MT version of Avisynth, so why do you put SetMode(2) to the script when Deinterlace is activated ?! with official version, your script fail

MT version will be used ONLY if available! So If you don't have MT AviSynth SetMode(2) will not be added.

Tdeint don't give the optimal result with mthreshL=0. In most cases, Tdeint( order=0 or 1, full=false) can produce a good picture (this is my personal opinion)

NO! You are wrong! Tdeint without mthreshL=0 produces ugly artifacts! BTW I made many tests with default settings and with mthreshL=0 and I did not see any difference between screenshots.

Why don't you use PS3 profile? (It uses 3 ref frames instead of 5 ). If it's still to slow use PSP profile (only 2 refs)

[Jacquers]

Thanks for the app! Downloading the update now to go and test it after work.

Just a suggestion for future updates: Maybe make only the changed files / exe available for users that have already downloaded v1.0.0 ?

[~bT~]

^ on the next version, would it be poss to select a destination for temp files instead of using c:\temp?

or just make sure the prog doesn't delete the temp folder?

[jethro]

This is one of the prettiest apps I've ever seen! Amazing interface look.
And it just worked w/o problems first time I tried it.

Firrst off I think it really needs user-customizable profiles. I think everyone here has some favourite switches and would like to tweak an option or two...

However, I like your simple design and minimalistic look very much and would hate to see it bloated and cluttered in any way. It would be great if you could keep this simple elegant feel while adding new options.

Custom profiles will be added in v1.1.0.

Simple design will be always kept. That's my goal

[Hyper_Thread]

Please don't say i'm wrong since i've said "this is my personal opinion". & i don't have to use a restricted level profile, i'm just proposing to offer much more choice for users.

[Atak_Snajpera]

OK! I respect your opinion. Custom profiles are under construction. It will take probably few days to implement and testing.
