[Ajax_Undone]

I'm not that stupid :p

Well I figured. Not to sound condescending.

Can you post a log... should be in ...\Ripbot264\Logs\*.log

Hi all

Ever since 1.10.7 i have been having problems getting the final .mkv, i get the mkv created message but no final mkv(it seems to work every other time)

anyway here is the log

I bet you are running Windows Vista? Vistas protection prevents you from writing stuff to the root of the boot disk. Please create a directory and make sure you instruct Ribbot to save to that directory instead.

Have done the same mistake myself a few times :p

[Nemesis7]

Just turn off UAC in the Control Panel and you're set :)

[shades]

Any way to select the Language to pass through on DTS encoded file for a recode? An option to change somewhere?

[therealjoeblow]

Changed: Level 4.1 has been changed to Level 4.0 (Reason: some devices do not accept anything above Lv4.0. For example Tvix. Quality settings has not been changed!

Hmm, I wonder why Atak did this? According to wikipedia, there's some sizeable max bitrate differences between the two levels:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264

4 = 20 Mbit/s 25 Mbit/s 60 Mbit/s 80 Mbit/s
4.1 = 50 Mbit/s 50 Mbit/s 150 Mbit/s 200 Mbit/s

Etc. Also, who cares whether Mr. Tuvix can't handle 4.1? Or a PSP? Why should that affect my Blu-Ray profile?

Can someone please tell me what settings to [either change or revert] in the 4.0 profile to have a proper 4.1 profile? I don't (nor ever will) have a Tvix, and plan only to play my files on the PC, but want the 4.1 profile to be properly compatible with DXVA.

Thank you

You can directly edit the profile ini files. In the Profiles directory of ripbot, open up the file "[ level 4.0 ] HD . BluRay . Consoles.ini" in a text editor and at the very bottom of it, change Level=level 4.0 to Level=level 4.1

Thanks Paddy and Nemesis

all working now

hi, at 99/100 ISO file writing, mp4box.exe crashes. my .mp4 file works though.. any ideas? i've updated to 10.8.7 btw.

[Nemesis7]

I encode my files using RipBot264, and it's amazing, love it. But there seem to be limitations concerning mp4 files like adding multiple audio and subtitle streams to a mp4 file, also adding chapters.
I suppose mp4box can help me with this, but what would the commandline be if I wanted this in one mp4 file that plays properly on the iPhone:

Video: animatrix.x264
Audio 1: a1_jap.aac
Audio 2: a2_eng.aac
Subtitle 1: s1_eng.srt
Subtitle 2: s2_nld.srt
Chapters: chapters.txt

For the subtitles I'd like to use ttxt files, but I'm not sure the iPhone supports this. I managed to get srt subs working on the iPhone using mp4te (http://www.bomijoa.com/iphone/download/mp4te_0.3.2.msi) though.

So what I'd like to know:
the commandline for mp4box to achieve the above

[MovieDude]

looks like a good application, going to try it now :D

MP4Box -ipod OUTPUT.mp4

note that mp4box defaults to 25 fps if you don't specify any frame rate value. If your content has other FPS, then add the -fps switch along with the value, eg -fps 23.976 or -fps 29.970

I don't know if you guys are aware, but the first time I went to convert I got a x264.exe error. I replaced it with the x264.exe in my meGUI directory, now it's working fine.

I'm getting this error when I load the video file:

[asarian]

I don't get it. How are you gonna interrupt RipBot264 exactly in-between two jobs? Once it's done with the first, it immediately proceeds to the second (which is good, btw).

Or are you saying you could actually interrupt the current job, and with 'delete temp files' ticked off, that RipBot264 will pick up where it left off? That would be fantastic!
Well, to answer myself, RipBot264 apparently can't resume the current job where it left off: it just restarts the current job altogether. Well, it was idle hope anyway. But that doesn't mean such a feature wouldn't be welcome. Kinda like a 'resume download' for FTP thingy. I don't see why x264 couldn't be made to pick up where it left off. Would come in handy for crashes, too.

[MovieDude]

I am having so much trouble converting AVI's to MP4's first I used meGUI and all were out of sync, now using this program I got 4 perfect movies and now 3 out of sync. Ok I can configure the delay bla bla bla.. but now I'm getting this:

x264 [error]: ratecontrol_init: can't open stats file

i got that error in the beginning too, i installed these 3 prg as required.

Yes these are a necessity! Before you try anything uninstall any codec pack that you might be using. FFDShow should be sufficient to decode anything your looking to decode.:rolleyes:

[xaero]

thanks ~bt~, that did the trick!

[shlap]

I've tried using RipBot 1.10.8 to generate an mkv from both an m2ts and an evo file.

Every time my audio starts out in sync but gradually falls behind the video. I've installed the latest AVISynth, ffdshow, and Haali's Media Splitter.

Am I doing something wrong? I'm using the Console profile and, 2-pass 12288kbps. The only thing I can think of is that I have Nero 8 installed, maybe uninstall that?

[~bT~]

^ try selecting stretch instead of cut for audio.

or maybe assumefps?

[shlap]

^ try selecting stretch instead of cut for audio.

or maybe assumefps?

Thanks, I'll give that a try. I did notice that...

video duration=2:31:18.996, audio duration=2:31:19.008

so would "stretch" stretch the video to match the extra .012 seconds?

[skrowl]

May I request m2ts as an output container? I've had the best luck streaming h.264 / AC3 in this container to my PS3. Outputting to MKV then running it through tsmuxer to make it a m2ts is my current workaround, but I'd like to avoid the extra setp.

Also, Profile 4.1 would be nice since it includes a few things that 4.0 doesn't and is fully compatible with PS3 / Xbox 360 / etc.

[nwg]

Can't you output as a Blu Ray disc and then delete everything apart from the created m2ts file.

What does 4.1 do over 4.0 and would 4.1 be better for working with HD DVD/Blu Ray discs?

For anyone else, I fixed the audio sync issue when converting from EVO files. RipBot was using eac3to to extract the AC3 and because I didn't have Nero 7 installed, it was using the default codec to do this. Once I installed Nero 7 with the HD Plugin pack, eac3to was able to use the Nero7 dll to extract the audio and my sync issues are gone. Yay.

[deets]

ive uploaded 1.10.8 to vipeers which has a direct download and a torrent link...

seed if you use this :) let me know if its ok and works fast etc.

[dm1105]

Hello once again, my friends. I recently upgraded from version 1.10.5 to version 1.10.8. The latest version worked very well when I used it to encode an HD-DVD movie to Bluray format. However, it does not work for me when I encode an MKV. For instance, when I begin the encoding process, it finishes very fast. When RipBot264 is done with everything, I notice that the final file is less than half a gigabyte. It turns out that when I play the movie, only about 1 minute or so of the movie is encoded properly, the rest of the movie suddenly has a black screen with this error message on top of the screen: CAVIStreamSynth: System exception - Access Violation at 0x0, reading from 0x0

I'm convinced that it has to do with the fact that the new version utilizes DirectShowSource() to do the MKV decoding. By the way, I'm on a 64-bit PC running Vista Ultimate. Any suggestions? Please, no smart-ass remarks--leave that for your parents.

[Ajax_Undone]

Hmm Have you tried replacing DirectShowSource() in job1.avs and using the *.bat file to do it manually from inside the temp folder?

[dm1105]

Hmm Have you tried replacing DirectShowSource() in job1.avs and using the *.bat file to do it manually from inside the temp folder?

Thanks for the quick response. I was wondering if you can elaborate just a little bit more as to what you mean exactly. For instance, I don't know if you're asking me to try to change the way the 'videosource' is inputed in the avs script. Also, I don't know what batch file in the temp folder you want me to run manually. Thanks.

P.S.: If you don't mind me asking, what happened to your old avatar? Was your previous avatar a picture of you? Just curious (I've been away from this forum for a long time).

[Ajax_Undone]

Well as your first post stated I'm convinced that it has to do with the fact that the new version utilizes DirectShowSource() to do the MKV decoding.

So yes change the way the 'videosource' is inputted in the avs script. I figure if it would have worked before it should still ring true. I haven't messed with re-encoding mkv file types before so I don't know what video source filter to use..

In the temp folder that ripbot creates on you local hard drive. there should be a couple of .bat/.cmd scripts once it does the initial demuxing and what not and after you set your custom settings.

hi hope someone can help please! i am using the hauppage hd-pvr to capture from sky HD it creates a h264 ts file which plays fine but as soon as i encode them to blu structure the sync goes out i have tried "cut" "stretch" and manually adjusting the sync but cant get it to match is there anything else i can try? all mkvs work fine its just these ts ones!
i can post a sample if needed thx

[dm1105]

Hmm Have you tried replacing DirectShowSource() in job1.avs and using the *.bat file to do it manually from inside the temp folder?

Thanks for all the help. Apparently, its seems that I resolved the problem by removing M$ Office Groove from my computer. I read in a MeGUI forum that there was some sort of conflict between the usage of DirectShowSource() and M$-Groove. After its removal, I was able to use MeGUI for the first time ever and I no longer had the problem with RipBot264 v.1.10.8 + decoding by way of DirectShowSource() (weird, I know).

[Ajax_Undone]

Kool... Great to know...

[Sgt_Strider]

I realize the Iphone/Itouch doesn't have a screen resolution with an aspect ratio similar to a DVD. So I'm just wondering what resolution RipBot will use to re-encode DVDs into an MP4 file that will display properly on the Iphone?

[Sgt_Strider]

Is it with RipBot264 possible to create a mp4 file that is compatible with the iPhone that:

- has multiple selectable subtitles which can be turned on/off in the iPhone (.srt input)
- has chapters (with names)

If not, are you planning on making this functionality? Thanks mate.

I would like to know as well. If RipBot264 can't do it, which other encoder GUI can?

[nwg]

I only use ripbot to convert Blu Ray and HD DVD to a AVCHD DVD. Ignoring the fact that it takes me another 10 hour or so to encode at 1080p. I noticed that the bitrate is the same whether it is 1080p or 720p so, am I better off encoding at 720p saving time and because the resolution is smaller do I get a better picture?

I did I, Robot at 1080p and while it looks very good, I do wonder if 720p would have been better. I only have a 720p display anyway.

I suppose the advantage is I keep the 24fps/hz so everything stays in sync. When I playback at 720p it does 720p/60.

The blu ray subs have to be extracted. TsMuxer can do this. Then run it through Subrip to convert it to a srt file. It has to ocr the words so it may require manually correcting the software for mistakes or words it can't recognise.

I was hoping ripbot would work wih the sup files as it extracts the sup during the analysing of the source file but doesn't seem to do anything with it.

[Atak_Snajpera]

The blu ray subs have to be extracted. TsMuxer can do this.
Why do you use TSmuxer if .sup files are already demuxed in temp folder?

True. You can also try to download subtitles from www.opensubtitles.org
