It's not aviable to adjust the value for "debloking sensibilty" with negative value (ex: -1). When I want to validate the settings a error warning is displayed : "is not a valid interger value".
It will be fixed in next version. Thank you!

I constantly get this error with HD-DVDs; what am i missing? its a clean install with just ripbot.
Use latest ffdshow 2301 and make sure that libavcodec is selected for all WMV1/2/3 and VC1

Im getting the same on some HD-DVD's.
It is already fixed in my personal v1.11.2

Atak_Snajpera is there a chance you adding the same kind of functionality?
I will try...

Thanks for great program - would it be possible to make it restartable from where each job has left off? One of the family always powers off the PC when I have been running a job for hours.... any chance of incorporating that into a later build please?

Thanks

hi Atak great to see you back, 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 h264 ts ones!
i can post a sample if needed thx :)

Hi DarkZell666, I have all 3 installed. Might reinstall them all again and see how I go.

[Edit] No go at this stage still :( Even after a reboot.

Hi Atak. Good to see you back. Anyway got one for you. I just picked up firefly and on some of the episodes RB shows no chapters, audio, video etc. Looking at the log I see the following in the title info file: The format of the source file could not be detected.

Any ideas?

Cheers

14th November 2008, 00:18

Atak_Snajpera, using eac3to - [a04] Decoding with libav/ffmpeg... [v02] Muxing video to Matroska... then used mkvmerge(mkvmerge v2.4.0 Build Oct11 2008) to join the .dts and .mkv files. The info on the final file shows libebml v0.7.7 + libmatroska v0.8.1 were used. Also Surcode DTS Encoder version 1.0.21.0. was used with eac3to as well.
Hope this info helps and thank you heaps for your time and effort.
It's strange the previous version worked before I used the latest one but now neither work :(
[Edit] I even tryed letting RipBot do the whole job with the same error just to let you know as well.

Hello Atak,

Today I have recoded a 9+GB m2ts file (AVC+DTS) to dual layer DVD (create blu-ray disc) . The result came out 6Mb bigger than the disc.

Everything was default settings (I didn't change anything other than setting 2 pass) I set the 2 pass output to the default 8150Mb, it came out at 8156Mb.

Here's the specs:

- FPS: 29.97
- Frames: 295630
- Duration: 2:44:24.198
- mode 2 pass, 4928 kbps
- audio DTS, copy stream, duration 2:44:29.429

I hope you can correct the bitrate calculation once more :)

After a 20 hours recoding this is quite a pain, fortunately I could cut the 6Mb with tsmurex.

I think this is not the first time this happened with DTS. Especially when I have several subtitles the calculation is most of the time wrong (almost always comes out bigger than the disc).

@stormswa
Show me full eac3to log.

I hope you can correct the bitrate calculation once more
ohh noooooo :)

I think this is not the first time this happened with DTS. Especially when I have several subtitles the calculation is most of the time wrong (almost always comes out bigger than the disc).
Does it happen more often with longer movies?

Bigmango

Does it happen more often with longer movies?

I think yes, but I am not sure (I remember having the problem with other DTS files in the past, but sometimes I added subtitles and sometimes not, so I'm not sure).

What I can confirm:

Problem 1:

- it often works fine. During the past week I have converted 3 or 4 DTS movies. All of them where about +/- 2 hours long, and all of them matched the target size perfectly (8150Mb). There were no subtitles.

- the above DTS movie with the problem was 2h44 long. It came out 6Mb too big. There were no subtitles.

Problem 2:

- there is a problem with subtitles. When I select subtitles, especially if I select several subtitles tracks, the resulting file comes out several Mb too big (2 to 8 Mb depending on the source and the number of subtitles). This happens with DTS and AC3, so it isn't dependent on the sound track.

It seems that adding more subtitle tracks increases the size problem, making the output bigger.

edit: the size miscalculation is only a few MBs. If it's complicated to fix (or if there is a risk to mess all of the good calculations up when trying to fix this) I think just lowering the default output sizes by 10 Mb (8150 -> 8140 and 4480 -> 4470) would be an acceptable easy and safe "fix" for all cases. Of course it wouldn't be perfect, but it's less trouble for you :)

Atak, lovely program, thanks for releasing it!

I have two questions:

Can anybody help me figure out the denoise feature? I've encoded some movies I have and they look a bit grainy. I thought denoising them would help but it doesn't seem to have made much of a difference when I check the AviSynth script. Any suggestions? Should I tweak the values some or just ignore it entirely?
Is there any way to remove the ripbot water mark at the beginning? It's not a big deal and I don't want to sound ungrateful, but it's a bit jarring.

Atak does this program leave any meta data on the file to allow VLC to identify it as the program that created it...

14th November 2008, 21:00

I still wouldn't mind a proper pasue button. I just used procexp.exe to pause the encoding which worked. I have now continued but unfortunately it is now going to take a lot longer. Second pass is usually around 2.2-2.5fps. It has continued at just 1.1fps and will take another 15 hours :( I only paused it for few hours.

When you restart after pausing, the encoding frame rate will continue just as fast as it always does, however RipBot264's display becomes highly inaccurate about the current frame rate and remaining time, because it bases that on how many frames have been encoded since you started the job. I've already suggested that the algorithm calculating these parameters should be modified, so that for example they only take into account what has been encoded in the last minute.

Not in my case. By the amount of time and the percentage done so far it is half what it was before pausing the encoding.

Yes, if this only happens in VLC, then it's not a "watermark", but merely VLC displaying some information about the file. Perhaps there is an option in VLC to stop doing that?

Can you detail please which "essential programs" are included with your installer that are not Atak's RipBot264?

If selected it will over write avisynth, FFDshow, and Haali but will not delete any extra filters or file that you manually put in to folders.

The installers that get downloaded by this installer (when selected) are of the same type and do nothing but extract the files into the already existing folders with an over write command (Nothing is deleted but might be over written)...

It's pretty self explanatory once you give it a try...

It allows you the user to install ripbot264, avisynth, haali, and ffdshow by choice... It installs shortcuts to the desktop StartMenu and the main project in x:\program files\ripbot264\*.*...

When ever I release a new version it has the most up to date version of the project and the latest FFdshow, Haali splitter and when the situation permits the latest avisynth.

So give it a try if you don't like it then you don't have to use it... Most people who are noobs or just want a simple strait forward installer that installs the software required. Love it...
:rolleyes:
Last count (accumulative) is 1987 downloads since I started building them... Only had 15 support requests and fixed all noted failings of the installer... I feel that is a good enough reason to continue building them...:)
