2. Few details about input file properties, shown in main window or edit window. i.e Video length, frame width, frame height, video bitrate, video format, fps, audio format, audio bitrate and etc. With help of this, we can set required encoding settings without going to file properties in explorer.
I didn't get this, you want that info or not?

I have two requests for you to implement on future releases of RipBot264, only if you can:

Thank's a lot Atak,

so why not downloading whole information from IMDB (or TMDB) to an NFO-File as you already retrieve these information? That would be fantastic.

Edit: Shouldn't be a whole scaper at all as there are EMM or MediaElch which do the job. But some basic data as Movie-Title, Original-Titel, Length and Year?

[Atak_Snajpera]

Is there any software like XMBC or any player which uses that extra information?

[Atak_Snajpera]

I've updated DownloadPoster app. This version uses themoviedb.org.
Pros: Much higher quality (up to 1500x1000) and no extra text on image.
Cons: Only one default poster can be downloaded. Working with java generated html is too annoying.

[klopsknoedel]

Is there any software like XMBC or any player which uses that extra information?

Is there a need for any other software which need/uses these information than XBMC (Kodi)?
At least since the raspberry-boom Kodi is widely used and a base of a lot of HTPC-Systems (RPi, WeTek ...).

Don't get me wrong, saving an additional .nfo would be a nice to have but is far away from being an essential feature. Just an idea. :)

Atak, thanks for the new version.
In this version I'm in trouble in preview...

hello,

i am sorry to trouble all of you but i am new in using ripbot264 great feature the distributed encoding. i understand that there is a youtube prepared on this matter but i still get the servers going. is there any other tutorial, perhaps with more details on how to properly set up the connections, share folders or anythings else to get the encoding going using multiple windows PCs? thanks in advance.

[Pulp Catalyst]

is there any chance of getting denoise in the batch mode, when dealing with old episode dvd's, the denoise filter works wonders for quality (also gives a good bump to compression efficiency as well).

Thanks,

[Atak_Snajpera]

yes...

@soneca
Finish all old jobs with older version. Use new version only with fresh jobs.

Generally everything should be working without any extra settings. EncodingClient automatically shares temp folder and so on.

Sorry for late reply. I had forgot to enable email notifications of new posts in this thread.

As of media info, I didn't find such in v1.19.0 but now the developer has added the feature on version 1.19.1.

Thanks a lot Atak_Snajpera :thanks:

- copy ripbot264 to client and servers pc.
- in client pc, change ripbot ini file to use DE (UseDistributedEncoding=1)
- in client pc, share ripbot temp folder with all users and full control
- in server pc, add ripbot temp folder as network drive
- in server pc, change the ripbot ini file to use network drive (StoreTempFilesin=NETWORK DRIVE)

the rest is in the video file, setting ips and ports in the encoding client app...

[Atak_Snajpera]

thank you for your comments, but i'm using the LAN at the office... so, here is some kind of limited/restricted network... and that was the way i found it works here...:o

maybe i missed some of your points... like "Server PC needs only EncodingServer.exe"... but it works at least...

[Atak_Snajpera]

Atak, thanks for the new version.

Always used this little file (https://puhow5.s.cld.pt) for testing. With this file can not the preview in this latest version.

Is it OK to increase this setting?

ChunkSizeFor2passMode=60

Let's say double it

[Atak_Snajpera]

Hi Atak, thanks for the latest build and patch.

I have a feature request that I would find handy in batch mode.

Would there be a chance of adding "Denoise" to the options...nearly everything else is.

If you have many files to batch encode, and you want to denoise them, you have to do them individually, once they're all queued.

Thanks

[BlockABoots]

Atak, have noticed when using batch mode that the demuxing audio window doesn't automatically close itself once its got to 100% and just freezes on 100%, i have tried closing the windows but its non responsive, Is this usual behaviour?

Also the main encoding window only shows 1 job rather than all the jobs (files) ive added

[Atak_Snajpera]

I've just added 40+ files in batch mode and I haven't noticed anything odd. I'm using win7. Does it freeze on specific file or randomly?

[BlockABoots]

I've just added 40+ files in batch mode and I haven't noticed anything odd. I'm using win7. Does it freeze on specific file or randomly?

No, the actual encoding still runs, just that the audio demuxing window stays open. So basically i have 2 windows, the encoding window and then the demuxing window (which stays open and at 100%), when one file has finished encoding the 2nd job (file) is added to the encoding job list and then the demuxing windows starts processing again and then gets to 100% and stays open.

Is this normal for the demuxing window to stay open, i was sure that once the demuxing process got to 100% the window closed??

[Atak_Snajpera]

Will you be able to record this behaviour with fraps? It would help if I could see this with my own eyes.

[BlockABoots]

Ok will do

Hello, i tried to use filter on Distributed Encoding. This is my .avs script

#MT
#VideoSource
video=DirectShowSource("E:\Test.mkv",audio=false).ConvertToYV12().Sharpen(0.25)

#Deinterlace
#Decimate
#Crop
#Resize
#Colors
#Denoise

#Subtitles
Loadplugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\RipBot\Tools\AviSynth plugins\VSFilter\VSFilter.dll")
video=TextSub(video,"C:\Temp\RipBot264temp\job1\Sub.srt",-1)

#AudioSource
Import("C:\Temp\RipBot264temp\job1\job1_a1.avs")

#Triming
#AVSameLength
#ColorSpace
return video

i tried change the Sharpen value from 0.10 and 1.00 and the script preview show the different between 0.10 and 1.00. This also happened on the encoded video when encoding without using DE. But when using DE, checking the encoded video there is no different between using Sharpen value 0.10 and 1.00, both give same result, seems the Sharpen filter not loaded when using DE. However the subtitle is still showing when using DE.

Can You please tell me how to make the Sharpen filter work on DE as its work without DE?

[Atak_Snajpera]

Do not add anything to first line because it is always replaced in de mode. Put in another section for example after #deinterlace marker.
#Deinterlace
video=sharpen(video,0.25)
#Decimate

[jandor]

Very Good, Atak. Thank you.

[defalopii]

Thanks thats work

But another question, how to add another filters? Is that always must be under the #Deinterlace? Bcoz i placed the filter like this

#Denoise
video=Sharpen(video,0.45)
Loadplugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\RipBot\Tools\AviSynth plugins\MosquitoNR\MosquitoNR.dll")
video=MosquitoNR(video,strength=32,restore=1)

the encoded video seems not using those filter anyways, the quality and the file size same like as i dont use filters

thanks guys. i will try it.

[athlonia]

got it working. and it is working well. 2-pass encode in not more than 1 hour 30 minutes on 2 desktop and 1 laptop using wired connection through home network.

previous issue of not able to connect the servers was solely due to kaspersky antivirus firewall. once i allow ripbot264, encoding sever and client server in the firewall application filter rules, everything works.

thanks again #atak and #fantasmanegro. now i thinking of getting the same setup to encode 10Gb mp4 and shrink it to 4.3Gb mp4 for easier backups.

thanks again...

Why do i get 'Error' in front of the file name in the job list once a file has been encoded and moved on to the next file to encode in the list. The file seems to play ok??

1) select job
2) Right click and show log

Once again: Any ä, ö, ü, ß, á, à, É, é... in output filename? I have the the same error if I name the file e.g. "Test_ü.mkv". The file will be created (with incorrect filename "Test_³.mkv") and plays well, but only GUI shows error. Ripbot just can´t handle this.

@Atak:
I use Ripbot for seven years now, and since then this is bugging me. Maybe now its time to fix it? Also if input filename is called "Für Elise.avi" Ripbot doesn´t demux audio.

[Atak_Snajpera]

I understand your frustration but the problem is that I'm using Delphi 7 without any support for national characters. That's why It hasn't been fixed.

[Jake802]

I am receiving that same "Error" (Same as BlockABoots) in front of a lot of my completed jobs, except I am not getting a finished file. Nothing shows up when I get the "ERROR" message. It's also not every time just seems to be frequent though. I will try to post something next time it happens.

Hey guy's, what version are you using ??

I'm still on 19.0, and the only time I get this "error", is if I have aborted the job, otherwise, business as usual.
