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

[Pimp Shanti]

Decided to see just what this program could do. I installed it on 8 Quadcore i7 machines and gave it a 23 minute file to chew on (h264 source, no audio). I let it go with the default settings and it encoded it at 370fps in 2min 04secs. Pretty impressive. I then set it to the Ultrafast preset and it crunched it at an incredible 1800+ fps!! But... it then took ages to Mux the file. Total time to completion: 2min 07secs! What's going on there? The strangest part is that there was no audio present to be muxed. Any ideas?

Also I'm trying to hunt down some AVC-Intra footage if anyone can help? The only AVC-Intra material I can create at the moment is MXF OP-atom - audio/video in separate files, and not recognised by RipBot. Any links to any other flavours of AVC-Intra, and preferably MXF OP1a (audio & video in same MXF container) gratefully received.

Thanks everyone

Atak, thanks for the new version! :)

[BlockABoots]

Will RipBot ever support Frameserver via VirtualDub??

[Atak_Snajpera]

why ?

[BlockABoots]

cos i do all video editing in VirtualDub, unless you know of some other way to editing in VDub and then use your program for encoding?

[Atak_Snajpera]

Well for editing I use Sony Vegas and Frame Server Debug Mode plugin.

[Jake802]

I used the newest Version of RipBot and now I keep getting told I have the wrong Bass.DLL Version. I keep getting little dialogue boxes and they say version 2.3 is required? What did I do wrong?

[Atak_Snajpera]

you have overwritten old instalation. EXTRACT FILES TO NEW FOLDER!

[Jake802]

Thanks!

[DTS-HD MSTR]

Thanks Atak_Snajpera for the updated version of RipBot264 v1.17.4 is as always perfect.

[jandor]

Thanks! Atak, for the new version! Excellent.

Am I able to make AVCHD's with Lossless audio?
I chose Demux once loaded, top right when loaded said "DTS-MA"
When I hit AVCHD as the output and change the size, add subs anything I get this error = 'Unknown / 1509000' is not a valid floating point value

[Atak_Snajpera]

dtsma and truehd are not allowed in avchd according to specs. I just forgot to disable copy stream option.

[N1ghtjar]

I have made loads of AVCHD's on BD25's with lossless audio and they all play fine on my Panasonic (known to be fussy with discs and AVCHD specs) and my Cambridge Audio, after all AVCHD has the same structure as a blu-ray.
How can I enable it or can you enable it for the next update?
I'm fed up with calculating MB's and not getting it to fill 100% of the disc, most of the time its 95-98% filled.

Here is a BDinfo if it helps

[Killuah15]

hey i wanted to start making let's plays etc. everythings fine, but if i want to add an avi file to RipBot264 i get this error code:

DirectShowSource: RenderFile, the filter graph manager won't talk to me
(C:\Temp\RipBot264temp\job1\getinfo.avs, line 2)

I've googled endlessly without any answers then i found this forum and i hope you can help me :( please :(

[Atak_Snajpera]

see first post maybe...

[N1ghtjar]

Atak, any chance I can have an update for my post please

[Atak_Snajpera]

Calculating video bitrate with DTS-MA/TrueHD is a nightmare! I really do not have motivation and time to fight with this madness. I will disable muxing DTS-MA/TrueHD in AVCHD in next version.

[Killuah15]

hey Atak, i can't find this problem, i just can find a version you added for someone, so he didn't get this error, i tried it too but i get this error anyway :S (it was an older version of ripbot)

[N1ghtjar]

Tell me about it Atak, I get it spot on MB's wise, I get the film size and the Lossless audio size and make it the exact size of the BD25 and yet I can get anything from 700mb to 1GB short of filling the disc, thanks for the update, looking forward to trying ripbot to create them fully in the future, Thanks

[Distributed Encoding - Multiple NICs Setting?] Hi all. I have a main HTPC that does most of the heavy lifting for me, including video conversions. It serves as the Master for all the encoding nodes with RipBot. In this HTPC is also a Ceton TV card which has its own IP address. Arguably you could call the device dual-homed. I was wondering if it is possible to set the Server to use a specific NIC? Changing the config file with the loopback address 127.0.0.1 to the Network address 192.168.1.xx seems to have little effect, and the DE Server still listens on the Ceton IP address (which for info is 192.168.200.1). If I disable the device in network settings DE Server then picks up the correct address.

Any help is appreciated.

Many thanks,
Mark

I followed the instructions in the first post and uninstalled/reinstalled all required programs. Still persists. Fairly sure I have no other codec packs installed.

Source video's info is below. What other info is required to troubleshoot and where do I find it? (Still quite new to this)

Thanks.

I'm having the same problem. Only happens with VC-1 material.

The only change is that I'm using windows 8 since this week.

win8?

[Pimp Shanti]

I was wondering if you could swap ProRes/DNxHD with AVC-Intra. I will describe my workflow on Windows 7.
1) first i've installed x264 VFW codec
2) in Sony Vegas I configured x264 codec to encode only in intra mode (example : --preset superfast --tune fastdecode --keyint 1 --bitrate xxxxxx)
3) my destination container is .avi

once .avi is created it can be used in DE mode.

I suppose you can do the same on mac. Just install x264 codec and then select .mp4 as output container.

I've tried to achieve this using both Final Cut X and Adobe Premiere CS6 but no joy so far. Premiere outputs AVC-Intra into an MXF container. No built-in options for AVC-Intra within an AVI. Not sure how I add codecs to Premiere but that's my next step I guess. However...

Feature requests:


Support for DNxHD & ProRes source files
Support for MOV and MXF containers (OP1a preferred but also OP-atom if it's possible)
Batch encoding where the same source material is encoded to several different bitrates/resolutions
A 'watch folder' where new files are automatically processed using predefined settings


I believe these functions will open your software up to many grateful professional video editors!

:thanks:

[Atak_Snajpera]

Not sure how I add codecs to Premiere but that's my next step I guess. However...
on windows you need this http://www.videohelp.com/tools/x264-VFW

win8?

Windows 8 would be 6.2 not 6.1.

[Atak_Snajpera]

Windows 8 would be 6.2 not 6.1.
indeed.

[QUEENFAN]

Is there any option in ripbot264 to convert to Bluray directly?

If I remember right, this option existed inb older versions. I don't want to burn AVCHD to BR because not all BR-Players support AVCHD so I prefer to use native BR format as output.

[hoju3508]

@QUEENFAN, you can always change --avchd to --blu-ray manually in tsmuxer.meta file.

[N1ghtjar]

This is true but I have found more incompatability problems when selecting blu-ray strangly.
I never have an issue with selecting AVCHD with tsMuxer, but both my machines play AVCHD without issue.

For the same reason they removed my x264 FHD Benchmark .
It seems that they dumb filter marks everything with x264 and mkv as some illegal content. They removed benchmark because they didn't like test sequence SVT_1080p50.mkv in archive.
I think it is time to move to Mega

[Dahitman]

Probably a stupid question... but... how do I encode in 10bit?

[Atak_Snajpera]

use PC only profile

[QUEENFAN]

I bought myself some new TV-series DVD's and a BR-Burner too. Now I want to encode the epsiodes with Ripbot264 to AVCHD and burn them on BR.

Which Profile would you suggest to encode DVD-sources generally in 2-pass-mode with locked size for best quality: ["High 4.0] HD, Progressive or "[Main 3.0] SD, PSP" (or another one)?


Thanks a lot for your help.
