Don't download the XXL version. If any trouble aftet that post your trouble that un admin can help you. Good luck.

I tried this ffdshow
Still the same:

DirectShowSoure: RenderFile, the Filter graph Manager wont talk to me

Unfortunately, Quicktime still gives the same error -2010: The movie contains some invalid data. ITunes still refuses to import it. Very finicky...

File must be in blu-ray structure. There is also reason why I did this but I have no time for explanations right now.

I guess you do it this way because the playlist will specify what each audio track is- making for less confusion amongst users who are unsure which track to use. However it would still be much more flexible to allow choosing straight from a .m2ts file. I rarely have the disk space to allow ripbot to demux the video stream as well.(It also defeats the purpose of saving time because of the extra video stream demux when adding bluray structure to ripbot).
I never rip the whole bluray to hdd - only the movie - again saving time and space.
If you could add audio choice direct from .m2ts files in next update it would be much appreciated. Thx again.

If .m2ts file is outside structure video is not remuxed to mkv. Video will just be indexed by DGAVCDec and then audio will be demuxed/converted by eac3to.

If .m2ts does not belong to structure then I assume that .m2ts comes from AVCHD camcorder (AVC+single AC3). Therefore I use different method without showing that window.

OK I see - but can you change your assumtions in next release. It would be nice to have the audio demux choice without having to put the .m2ts file into ripbot via a bluray structure. Thx.

Yes, this file works on and can be successfully imported by iTunes! Thank you.

Hmm, is there a way to crop and add borders? I have a movie that's not vertically centered; and I'd like to crop the uneven borders, than re-add new, equal-size borders.

[8ternity]

Hi Atak,

Just to said Thank You!! It work 2.35:1 @ 720 :)

[Atak_Snajpera]

Problem solved

[leemjas]

let us say I have 4.7 GB mkv file; in order to play on the PS3 i need to add borders using the addborders command. I picked CQ-22 using blu ray output after finishing the file was reduced to 2.9 GB (The file plays fine but the bitrate was reduced).

My question is that if I wanted to only add borders without changing the bitrate or Quality of the original file what is the best way in Acheivng this?

Thanks ..

[~bT~]

Use 2 pass encode and lock size to 4480.

[~bT~]

Problem solved

what was the problem?

use auto crop then resize.

[leemjas]

Use 2 pass encode and lock size to 4480.

Does this mean that using 2 pass encode and locking file size to 4480 gives better quality than using CQ-22 on a 5 GB mkv?

[~bT~]

^ bitrate will fluctuate but will fit dvd5.
or u could use a lower cq.

[leemjas]

I can play AVCHD off an external harddisk; but is there any way I can copy it to the internal harddisk on the PS3 while remaining in the AVCHD format?

[~bT~]

^ doesnt the internal hdd have a 4gb limit?

[bigggt]

^ No 4gb limit

[Sarreq Teryx]

as of this version (I don't know about 1.9.9 or 1.10.1 though, I didn't have opportunity to test them), if I turn on any filtering in the properties dialog box, nothing is able to encode. it goes through normalizing, encoding audio, pass1, pass2 and muxing in less than 5 seconds, obviously with no output

sample here (http://www.mediafire.com/?r3mlziciwxq)

^ doesnt the internal hdd have a 4gb limit?only if you're using FAT32

Works without problems in 1.10.2

Thanks Atak. Will this be fixed in the future release?

[benedicto]

Thank you for this nice and easy to use tool for a newbie like me! It serves my purpose of preserving harddisk space. I tried successfully shrinking a 24G m2ts down to 3.6G mkv, keeping all program defaults except changing the size from 1080p to 720p and muxing in an English subtitle which I demux with tsmuxer and converted from sup to srt using suprip. The resultant mkv still maintains good picture quality and both the audio and subitle are perfectly sync.

I have one newbie question (please don't laugh): What is CRF? By changing its value 18-20-22-24-26 can I arrive at a size of mkv something more close to 4.7G so that I can get the best PQ possible to fit into one dvdr? If so, is there a way to caluclate?

[Atak_Snajpera]

use 2-pass and lock size at 4480

[hdpete]

Please can someone tell me whether it is possible to get RipBot to use a temporary file elsewhere, i.e. my D drive as I only have 15gb spare on my C drive which isn't enough. Thanks for your advice.

[Atak_Snajpera]

Edit ripbot264.ini

[arrarro]

with version 1.10.1 and .2 itunes does not import mp4 files created with iphone-ipod profile. I am using now v1.9.10 and everything is fine again. Maybe you were aware of this problem, if so ignore this post and thank you for your efforts Atak!

[hdpete]

Sorry, please can you explain how to do this, I'm using Vista Home Premium x64. Thanks Atak

[Atak_Snajpera]

Open RipBot264.ini in notepad and change
StoreTempFilesin=C
to
StoreTempFilesin=D

[hdpete]

Thanks Atak for your quick reply. Please see attached screen print of the error I get when I try to save the amendment using Notepad. Any ideas what I've done wrong? Cheers.

[Atak_Snajpera]

Problably you had one in memory. Reboot your windows, retry. The file is probably stay in memory.

Just uploading a 30 MB m2ts file cut to mediafire which contains video, 2 dts , 1 ac3 and 1 subtitle track:
RipBot264 1.10.2 only recognizes ac3 as an audio track... but thats in my case directors comments.

And when demuxing dts manually and then adding via GUI, RipBot264 1.10.1 oversized BluRay 8150MB Output by 17MB (Video is 1h43m12s)
Haven't tested with 1.10.2 yet.

Hi Atak, still unable to save the amended ini Temp file details on either of my PC's and I tried a fresh install.

Perhaps you would consider setting the Temp to Auto setting in new updates. I would imagine that most RipBot264 users don't have enough space on their C drives to accomodate large HD video editing in the temp folder.

Thanks again for your time and help.

Problem now solved - saved amended ini file to desktop, deleted old ini file from install folder and cut & pasted the desktop saved ini to the install folder. Got there in the end!

v1.10.3
Fixed: mp4s encoded for iPOD were not compatible with iTunes after 1.9.10
can you tell us why that was pls??

[Wishbringer]

Changelog

v1.10.3
Fixed: DTS Hi-res detection (not Hi-Res DTS -> silly error :)

Don't know if fix was based onto my clip (cutted with tsmuxer 1.8.4b), but still there is only ac3 detection, no dts.

If you need another clip (other cutting way) please tell, I only know that way.:confused:

[Atak_Snajpera]

send me another ...

[Ajax_Undone]

Updated installer in my signature...

[Ajax_Undone]

Hey Atak what ever happened to the advanced x.264 codec settings... in older versions it just popped up after setting properties... Now cant even get it to show...

[Atak_Snajpera]

Qué??? I did not touch anything

[Wishbringer]

v1.10.3
Fixed: Calculation formula for DTS 1536kbps should not give oversized file in Blu-Ray structure

Encode just finished:
3 hour movie which gave with 1.10.2 an oversize of 36 MB now has free space of around 6 MB on a DVD9.

Great, thanks :)

[hdpete]

i'm using v1.10.3 with no codec pack, just the software included in Ajax_Undone's installer and I'm having a problem with the audio on blu-ray shrinks to either MKV or Blu-Ray. For the last 3 or 4 versions of RipBot264, the resulting audio has been too loud and distorted when played back via SPDIF to my Pioneer amp. In RipBot settings I always choose 'COPY STREAM'. The original Blu-Ray audio plays back fine through my SPDIF connection on my PC.

Please can anyone give me some advice on what the problem might be. Thanks

No problem with DTS-HD audio, just AC3.

Hi

Im trying to do a 2pass conversion using ripbot264 (console profile) and i have all the software installed and configured. I start the conversion and it seems to do the first pass fine but then just says "job done". When ive checked the log it says "i/o error at the bottom".
with no file created

Anyone any ideas?

Ive just realised that when i select my vob or avs file the two pass option dissapears... and i get some frame options instead.. is this normal? How do i set one pass/two pass

[Ajax_Undone]

What device are you trying to write to. I/O is usually a disk device...

Ripbot does not write to laser media (ie CD/DVD/BDR) only hard drives...

[womble2]

Hi

since "v1.10.2
Added: From now on user can specify which Audio,video stream wants to demux from Blu-Ray and HD-DVD structure"

I always get an error after Ripbot demuxed a video file:


No compatible ACM codec to decode 0x0055 audio strem to PCM.
(C:\temp\RipBot264temp\job1\getinfo.avs, line 2)


As far as I know now is that it might be a problem with mp3.
But I have no solution found yet.
And the "funny" part is, that earlier ripbot version convert the file without problems :(


Has anybody help for me ?


Thanks in advance

[Atak_Snajpera]

Ok, I didn't know how to "send" so here's a short example on uploaded.to

@Atak:

1.10.x does not like these HD-DVD's: The Mummy, and Mummy Returns. I got a window popping up and asking the structure to be read but it can not detect any video or audio clips.

For now, I have gone back to 1.9.x, and manually load the audio stream.

I am in the process or uploading the structures to you. Will post links once they are on the server.
