Atak-

Any chance of Ripbot supporting Hi-res audio output in the future? ie:True-HD/DTS-MA

Thanks again!!

Hi Atak,

You never reply me about my troubleshooting.

1.10.3 & 1.10.4 Troubleshooting when playing the AVCHD blu-ray conversion in ps3 and blu-ray players. Audio track, sounds goes on/off tested with 2 different blu-ray players, and 1 ps3.

Probably something wrong with the conversion?

Thanks.


i have try with 3 movies. 2 mkv and one from blu-ray ripp directly.
Now tested with 1.10.1 and size output not ok. total size 2GB no 4480.

First-time user here.
I opened a large video file in RipBot and now it displays something like "please wait... gathering informations..."

It would be nice if RipBot could display a progress bar while it's waiting there.

[topsham]

Does anyone know if there is a 64 bit version of x264.exe? I'm using Ripbot264 in a 64 bit Vista environment and was wondering if this would speed up processing at all?

[Atak_Snajpera]

i apologize if this has already been covered...i'm converting 1080p .m2ts files to .bluray to make avchd discs. I am getting between 7-9 fps on the second pass. Is there a file i can manually edit (x264 encoder settings) to speed the encodes w/o loosing too much quality?

i'm using a q6600 @ 3ghz.

7-9 fps is very fast for 1080p. I have only 3-4 fps on Core 2 Duo 3Ghz :)
Do not change anything because quality will suffer. Only agressive changes will give you higher speeds but it also means lower quality!

It would be nice if RipBot could display a progress bar while it's waiting there.
Not possible!

Now tested with 1.10.1 and size output not ok. total size 2GB no 4480.
Do you really think I care for older versions??? You should always use the latest.
Check if you have the same problem with audio during preview in ripbot

Use google. 64bit version should speed up to up 10 %

I need sample amigo!

[womble2]

Will it be possible to choose which audio stream will be used when handling with an .avi file ?
As far as I know, now the first audio stream is used.
I have a lot of .avi files with at least 2 audio streams and it would be nice if I could tell ripbot, which to take in the final file

[fib0by]

7-9 fps is very fast for 1080p. I have only 3-4 fps on Core 2 Duo 3Ghz :)

I've a slightly slower Core 2 Duo (it's a 2.6GHz IIRC) and I get around 2...3 fps in Pass 2. Yes, it's pretty slow.

Does RipBot scale up with the number of cores? Will it be able to use more than 2 cores efficiently?

E.g., my motherboard supports (after a BIOS update) the Phenom quad cores. If I upgrade to a quad at the same clock speed, will the fps go up significantly? (I'm hoping for a double speed, but I'll take any improvement at this point)

[Atak_Snajpera]

x264 encoder scales very well with number of cores. Look
7-9 fps is very fast for 1080p. I have only 3-4 fps on Core 2 Duo 3Ghz
He has two times more cores and speed is also two times faster

I didn't know that avi supports 2 and more audio streams! Sample please :)

i'll just build a dual xeon/skulltrail setup to 2x-2.5 increase encoding speed. atak :thanks: for the awesome program man! all of us really appreciate it's simplicity and usefulness!

Is there a way to use RipBot with x264farm to do distributed (cluster) encoding?

Hi Atak

Do you really think I care for older versions??? You should always use the latest.
Check if you have the same problem with audio during preview in ripbot

First, i have try with 1.10.4, with the latest ffdshow version, results, it's what i told you. I have try all my other version to be sure of what could be the trouble and have try until 1.10.1 to be sure that it is not the new version the trouble.

I always install the latest !! but i have just try something to try to understanding if it's ffdshow trouble, or the x264 version, so i try other older version.

My trouble is that:

1.10.3 & 1.10.4 Troubleshooting when playing the AVCHD blu-ray conversion in ps3 and blu-ray players. Audio track, sounds goes on/off tested with 2 different blu-ray players, and 1 ps3.

that would be sweet:devil:

the thought of building a farm of cheap quadcore systems to do x264 encoding would be awesome instead of spending 2-3k to build one 8 core system...

[Atak_Snajpera]

I don't know if it is non-standard, but I have a lot of these...
I think it would be easier if you remuxed all avis to mkv. avi was not designed for multi audio streams.

[womble2]

Sure, that's not really a problem, because of just muxing it's lamost just copying the file.

So what I then would love to see is a button to play the demuxed Audio Files, even if it would just open my standard mp3 player.
Because now I have to check manually which is the stream (file) I want.

And have I already said that it would be a big save of time for me, if the resize option could be stored in the profile file ?
So that every file I add with a specifiec profile will be resized without hanging through the Properties ?



Thanks a lot again Atak ;)




Btw.:
does anybody know a good way (batch) to remux a lot ov avi files, even in different folders, into mkv ? Till now, I use the MKVtoolnix, but I don't think, they have an batch option, better it HAS one, but a very easy toll, that walks through a folder and subfolder just remuxing every file would be nice.

Ok, forget that, I wrote a little script using the mkvtoolnix command line ;)

[Ajax_Undone]

Divx avi 2.0 is supportive of two audio streams... Still cant get the size past 4gb...

MkV is a better choice because it is more versatile as far as audio, size and subs are concerned...

[turbojet]

Speaking of the long wait in the beginning, out of curiosity is there a reason you chose frame indexing with dgavcindex and ffmpegsource over directshow haali->ffdshow libav ?

[Mike_111]

Great program! Just one tiny thing. It would be awesome if you could implement default audio profile and default resize settings (incl. custom or the ability to add a profile), just like the default video profile in the RipBot264.ini :)

[Atak_Snajpera]

Speaking of the long wait in the beginning, out of curiosity is there a reason you chose frame indexing with dgavcindex and ffmpegsource over directshow haali->ffdshow libav ?

I chose that method because I wanted RipBot264 to be independet from DirectShow hell :) Simply I wanted to avoid conflicts in filters.

[fib0by]

Maybe I'm blind, but I don't see any way to include soft subtitles in a Blu-Ray to Blu-Ray rip.

I rip the BD with AnyDVD HD.
I open the main movie file in RipBot. It says "analysing" so I wait.
When it's done, I can select chapters, video and audio, but no subtitles.
I click Ok and then it's remuxing to mkv.
When it's done, there's a button labeled subtitles, but it doesn't seem to do anything useful: it just opens a new window, but there are no subtitles there to choose.

I'm confused because in tsMuxer I can select and include a subtitle track if I wish. But of course tsMuxer cannot shrink the video track.
RipBot has a subtitle button too, but it's not working.

What am I doing wrong?

[Ajax_Undone]

Atak have a video sample that my Kodak makes and it doesn't want to show in ripbot... Figure you can tell me why...

It has selective output...

OK, what are the minimum requirements for using FFT3DGPU. I have a Radeon X1650 with 512MB and it will not work for me.

if thats too old a card for FFT3DGPU, would it be possible to have the option to use the MSU denoiser also?





edit: OK, I found its doom9 topic. it says my card should work, but it seems there are issues with it and WinVista. SO, my request still stands, would it be possible to have the option to use the MSU denoiser also? at least until the Vista problem is worked out?

[Sarreq Teryx]

what does the error message Couldn't open input file in HIDE mode! Exiting. mean???
Something wrong with source. Open .vob in DGIndex and see what's happening.(sorry, I forgot about this entirely for a week) I tried that and DGIndex doesnt show any errors with the file

I posted a question a few days ago about if avchd played on a samsung bdp1400 could have DTS audio. Well I found the answer. According to Wikipedia article on the avchd spec, it only supports audio DD up to 640kbps or LPCM but not DTS. This explains why my samsung will play all the ripbot avchd with dd but not dts. When I burn the ripbot avchd to a bd-re it plays even with dts so it must think its a bd, not avchd. If anyone has a panasonic or sony stand alone bd player (not ps3) have you been able to play a ripbot BD that had DTS and burned to a DVD9 or 5 succesfully?

[Atak_Snajpera]

You must manually convert .sup files to .srt

OK, what are the minimum requirements for using FFT3DGPU. I have a Radeon X1650 with 512MB and it will not work for me.
I have Laptop with Redeon x700 128 MB + Windows Vista SP1 and everything is working well. Even 1440x1080 :)

Now you know why .mov format is not officially supported in my app.

Solution: Remux .mov to .avi using this command line
ffmpeg.exe -i "c:\1.mov" -vcodec copy -acodec copy "c:\1.avi"

Hi,

Yes AVCHD with DTS @ 1.5Mbps plays back no problem on a DVD+R DL via a Panasonic DMP-BD30 Blu-Ray standalone deck.

Also the AVCHD spec does allow for DTS on AVCHD. The spec is upto 1.5mbps bit rate after compression and 1 - 7.1 channels.

[jtheripper]

Very interesting. Where did you see that the spec allows DTS? Makes sense that it would but I couldnt find that anywhere. Guess I will get me a panny player. Thanks

[Discoboy]

The spec does not actually mention the DTS trademark, but it does say bit rate after compression 1.5mbps and upto 7.1 channels i.e. the DTS core sound track spec of DTS-HD sound track. Spec link here:

[CupCak3]

two thumbs up on the software... I've used this successfully to backup several of my bluerays. I've been able to figure out most of my problems/wants by searching but have one final question (...at least for now ;) )

Is there anyway to keep an origional soundtrack instead of having it "re-encoded"? Are there any benefits to having it re-encoded? The movies I just finished have Dolby EX soundtracks that I'd like to pass directly to my receiver. Thanks!

[Ajax_Undone]

Thanx Bro...

[florinandrei]

If I'm not mistaken, RipBot uses tsMuxer to author the BD structure, right?
Well, if that's the case, there's a problem. The disks authored with tsMuxer will play in a loop on the PS3. Insert disk, it starts playing, it reaches the end, it goes back to the beginning, plays the whole disk again, and so on. :angry:

Anybody knows how to fix this?

[Ajax_Undone]

The installer has been updated to include an updater built originally by morphinapg for ASXgui Encoder.
He generously offered me the source after I asked and I modified it for use with RipBot264...

So big thanx to morphinapg...

Anyhow if you use it now it will just download The current build of RipBot264 so its kinda useless untill next release...

Currently Building a ffdshow and haali updater to include by 2.0 release. The 2.0 Installer will be the last one released until 3.0 comes around. So I want it to be self sustaining...

Ref: Samsung BDP-1400 & DTS - My 1400 plays DTS just fine with AVCHD. Perhaps the feature was part of the FW updates?
I know I've applied several FW updates.

Lovely app, BTW. A lot of praise needs to be heaped upon the author for this little gem.
It's beautiful.

Doesn’t setting the audio profile to “x.x. COPY STREAM” not work for you as for me this prevents reencoding. I use this function to keep the DD core track that Ripbot extracted from DD-HD audio track as if I let it reencode, the sound levels are much lower. I also use it when I have a DTS audio track.

Seems 1.8 is the latest and has some AVCHD fixes:

[fib0by]

Shrunk a big 1080p VC-1 thing to DVD-9. When there's a big image change (cut from one angle to another, or from one scene to another) the image freezes for several seconds. Audio keeps playing normally. This is on a PS3.

Several possible causes:
- DVD+R DL is being read too slowly by the PS3
- bitrate after shrinking is too small for this video stream
- bug in x264

Any ideas?

I'll try to upload the .m2ts file to the PS3 directly (bypassing the DVD+R DL media) and we'll see what happens.

P.S.: I shrunk another one, same procedure, same DVD+R DL and it seems to be fine. Kind of eliminates the DVD from the list of suspects, but in this case the bitrate is a tiny bit smaller (7GB final size instead of 8). But the master in this case looks a bit more smooth.

[Atak_Snajpera]

Did you ever check this out and fix it?
Fixed: 5.1 Audio profile was missing if audio had 8 channels

Audio track is stored in pcm format therefore it must be re-encoded to 5.1 AC3.

possibly the issue's with Vista 64? dunno.

Hello Atak,

thanks for your great work for the community!

I have a quick question: is there an option in the .ini files to set the x264 --keyint <int> and --min-keyint <int> parameters? Alternatively: do you have a HDDVD ini-file (similar to the Bluray one) which presets those parameters correctly? I'd like to create HDDVD compliant .264 raw files, and a couple of x264 parameters from the Bluray profile that I use at the moment have to be changed (e.g GOP <=36, and probably others).

Thanks.

[Atak_Snajpera]

My tests show that --keyint <int> and --min-keyint <int> are not neccessary. Blu-Ray ( and probably HD-DVD as well) players play movies without problems. Besides HD-DVD format is dead for me.

Well, I don't know how picky HDDVD players are with out-of-spec streams. What I've encountered is that some authoring tools don't accept out of spec GOP values, hence my question. I try to author a HDDVD from a backup of my purchased BD, as I see it as a waste of ressources to dump a perfectly functioning HD player.

EDIT:
Atak: is RipBot264 open source, I would volunteer to make necessary additions and test them, in case you've no interest and time to do this...
