have you tried the most recent version of RipBot. I know it had some issues in the 1.13.0 version of it...:rolleyes:
I'm pretty sure I downloaded the most recent version, but I'll check to be sure. I was able to get it to run by editing the .ini file and disabling the startup check, but when I start to process files it immediately says "Done" and nothing is written. Probably because it can't figure out where Haali is? I'll make sure I'm on the most recent build and try again.
Thanks!

Use the latest build. v1.13.2...:)
lol.. well i tried that too and received the same error.. after much googling i found the answer.. bepipe is dependent on .NET
so i loaded .NET2 and all is working now..
thanks.

I tried adding two .sup files: english and spanish. When I tried playing the movie after encoding, the english subtitle became spanish :confused:. The spanish one is Ok. Is this normal?

No prob. I usually disable software check just cause the potential for a bug seems a little to high.

So I checked and I using the current version. So it's back to the drawing board. I can get the program to run if I disable the startup check, but when I try to convert the video it doesn't. The last line in the log says:
"Error: The source file 'C:\temp\RipBot264temp\video.264' could not be opened successfully, or retrieving its size by seeking to the end did not work."
That file definitely does NOT exist, but I have no idea why. There is a directory for each job under the "C\temp\RipBot264temp\" directory... Any idea what I'm missing here?
Thx!

You have just 3 options. Shut down ... , Low Priority and Keep jobs queue. Now try to guess which one you should uncheck.

Keep jobs queue unchecked is for deleting temp directory?
If so it doesn't seem to work with StoreTempFilesin=AUTO
Also StoreTempFilesin=AUTO creates a blank temp dir in C:\ and a Temp dir in the largest partition, E:\ in my case.
Edit: I figured out what C:\temp is from as the default output dir was left blank and that's the default. I figured if I left it blank it wouldn't make that dir and use the source input directory like it always does by default for me. But I guess when input is from an image or BD it can't use input as output. Well hmm maybe you mean keep jobs queue unchecked deletes everything inside the Temp dir, it does indeed do that, but could it delete the Temp dir too? Same with default output dir.

Windows Vista and Windows 7 (I have no XP) does not allow me to delete anything located in C:\ !

25th February 2009, 12:28
That's odd I can delete just fine in vista, in windows 7 I could as well but not the PerfLogs directory, are you using UAC?
Also I notice that no matter what I set for default output directory, C:\temp is created.
Sorry to be nitpicky I just like to keep my hard drives some what organized and empty temp dirs don't really help that cause.

Most people have UAC on. Moreover in Windows 7 if you disable UAC then sidebar disappears. So I'm trying to get used to it (i like sidebar:).

One more question: I only have 720p TVs, so I need to convert everything to 720p. I thought, from reading the forum posts that you just need to set the MODE to 2-Pass, and then set the Lock Size to 4.5GB (or close). I did that, but it looks like the video is still 1080p. Is there a tool that will tell me what the video is? And should I be doing something differently to convert the video to the lower res?
Thanks again for the help!

Quick question - using the latest version of RipBot - I convered an 8GB HD-DVD file into a 4GB MKV file. While the results look good - playback seems a bit strange. I use VLC Player and the resulting MKV files seems to play back "fast" and seems to "stutter a little"
Also if I skip ahead in the video - I am at the end of the video while the slider bar in VLC is only just past the 1/2 way mark.
Is my MKV file ok and VLC that is acting up? Or is there a problem in Ripbot?
Confused... Any help would be great appreciated.

If I go to the properties page and select build in picture it browsers for a subtitles file but none of the ones it wants is .sup so how do I convert the .sup into a file type that ripbot will accept.

I was just about to post something about the ff/rwd as the picture freezes or stutters on my player. Is this working ok in 1.12.0? I am currently using that version to do a Blu Ray and rather not have to start again.
Also, with 1.12.0 I used off to make the audio kept in sync. As that option seems to be missing, will it still be in sync. I usually use copy stream for the audio.

The file is an .m2ts blu-ray rip. The same error ocurrs no matter what file I try, even previously encoded files. A couple times in the past I got a different error at this point, but re-installing avisynth always fixed it.
I've been using Ripbot without problems for a long time now, nothing changed on my system that I know of.
I've tried re-installing Halli, avisynth and ffdshow (x64) several times now. Tried starting a job with and without audio. Tested my RAM. Spent hours searching the forum and Google and I really don't want to wipe the OS and start over lol.

I don't think so.
Reasons:
1) mkvmerge and Haali media splitter do not support truehd yet
2) eac3to can not fix audio gaps in trueHD stream (a/v sync problems)
3) lack of avisynth plugins
3) calculation formula for blu-ray structure will not work due to variable bitrate in True-HD stream
if that is the case, shouldn't it be displayed?
No. You see actual informations. A/V same length function will be activated after you click OK button (proper Trim values are added under #AVSameLength in script)
, now that the delay option is in properties, it's awkward getting the delay correct in one go..
hopefully my last niggle for today, instead of 50ms can the option be 20ms or the old 10ms pls? maybe an .ini setting could be applied?
It's easier for me to have audio delay section next to preview button because I can quickly check if delay in preview is correct! In older version I had to go back to main windows each time. Besides I got free space for Language combobox without ruin basic design. In terms of GUI's design I'm very strict. We have saying in Poland that 'Everything must have arms and legs'.
Regarding audio delay. 50ms step is optimal for me. Maximum error is only 25ms. There is no way you can detect that kind of delay!
Simple example:
Let's say you have video @ 25fps
1000ms / 25fps = 40ms
Every frame is displayed in 40ms intervals. So maximum error (25ms) is smaller that duration of single frame!

For build in picture, the sup needs to be ocr'd with suprip to a srt file. If you select blu ray as the outcome you can add a sup file in the subtitle screen (above the location of the end results on the right side of the software). You will have to select the subs manually each time though.

Thank you Atak for a wonderful program. I've been using it with great success for some time now. I have one question: I use 64 bit Vista with 4 gigs of RAM with an Intel Quad Core processor. I understand that Ripbot will now run in 64 bit mode but when I view my processes I find that it is still running as a 32 bit application. How can I enable 64 bit encoding or did I misunderstand the new 64 bit capabilities? I'm using version 1.13.3.

I have tried this myself for Pans labyrinth and the SUP file preview was pure garbage, I took a leap of faith and burned the bluray DVD that was outputted, I even made sure that the subtitle language was selected as spanish but still my Sony BDP-S550 would not show the subtitles, this was a few revisions back though.

You installed ffdshow (x64) or MT?
It is ffdshow x64, although in the codec settings it does say ffdshow-mt. I can't see any other versions of x64 ffdshow at Soundforge.
But this was working fine before.
So I tried installing the latest sse version of ffdshow and left x64 version installed. It doesn't give the error now. So something is definitely wrong with x64 codec install.
I would think Ripbot would still try using the x64 version since it should detect the codec as being installed.

You do not need a X64 version of FFshow just the clsid versions. I’m using rev_2653_20090203_clsid at the moment.
Check in the RipBot264 “ini” file that Use x264x64=1 is set
When the encoding is actually started go via “Ctrl” + “Alt” + “Delete” then to “Task Manager” then to “Processes” You should then see X264_X64.exe file running >50%. This then confirms you are running the X264 X64bit version.
For me during testing with a Q6600 @ 3.4Ghz + 4Gb ram average encoding time for 2 pass reduced from around 5.5 hours down to 5 hours

It is an interesting note that just might be my system... (currently testing on another system BTW) I ran a couple entire main video vob's through ripbot and when the 1st pass cmd file was run on the video. x264_x64.exe ran 2 frames in then killed leaving me with a 3kb video.264 file in the temp dir.
When I run the cmd scripts outside the gui they execute just fine, but when the gui runs them at the end all I get is a 2/3kb video clip muxed in with a full audio file...
Like I said it might be nothing but my system. Here are the relevant specs.. AMD Phenom 9500 x4 4GBram Windows 7 Ultimate x64 preRC1...
Just figured I would give you all a heads up cause I just got done Converting about 50 DVD's to mp4 for my pod. And every one was just audio... No error was thrown so the logs are irrelevant...

Are there plans to have RipBot adjust the framerate of subtitles in the future? If I want to convert a 25 fps file to 23.976 fps, I'll demux using TSMuxeR, eac3to convert the Dolby Digital or DTS audio, use RipBot to convert the video but I've come across some problems getting my .sup, .srt or .subs to the correct framerate using Subtitle Workshop, Subtitle Creator, etc...

I tried bringing this up before, but you insisted you were correct, when you are NOT. You DO NOT HAVE THE CORRECT PROFILE FOR APPLE TV!
I dont know how many times I have to say it,, but I can guarantee you that unless you go into properties and resize it to 1280x720, ITS NEVER GOING TO PLAY ON APPLE TV.
It will play fine in Itunes, but if you try to sync it to your apple tv it will tell you that the format is incorrect and will not sync to the apple tv.
I dont mean to sound like a ass, and I was very nice last time I brought this up, but what good is it to offer a Apple TV profile when it wont work without resizing the video?
You have a great piece of software, but stop for a minute and actually listen to someone that HAS a apple tv.

The presets are only for compatible x264 encoding settings... Guess what... you have to resize that 1080p source for the ipod too...:p

Umm..I thought it was using h264 to encode? Do you have to set that option then? I thought the whole idea behind ripbot 264 was that it encoded everything using h.264. Is that not correct?
I guess I dont get what your saying. I thought the whole idea behind a preset was so you DIDNT have to resize anything, it resized it for you for the device in the profile, eg, psp, ipod, iphone, apple tv, etc ,etc

^ how does atak know what resolution video you want?
eg; i choose 320x240 for ipod while others choose 640x480..
oh, by the way, u should seriously read up on codecs and more.

Umm..I didnt say anything about Ipod. Im talking about the Apple TV profile. Apple tv is 1280x720 (for the highest resolution.)
Right from apples site:
====================
Video formats supported
* H.264 and protected H.264 (from iTunes Store): Up to 5 Mbps, Progressive Main Profile (CAVLC) with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps (maximum resolution: 1280 by 720 pixels at 24 fps, 960 by 540 pixels at 30 fps) in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
====================
So, you can import any movie you want into itunes (within reason) but that doesnt mean it will play on apple tv when you try to sync it or play it on the apple tv. If it exceeds either spec listed above by apple, it will give you a error message when trying to sync it on the apple tv.
Therefore, if you pick the apple tv profile, it should default to 1280x720. If for some reason someone is really concerned about disk space, they can change the resolution to 960x540, but ripbot should be defaulting to at least ONE of these profiles instead of a non apple tv supported profile.

x264 , Atheme , Elecard AVC encoder , MainConcept are implementations of h.264 standard. (XviD and Divx are implementations of MPEG-4 ASP standard)
Video profiles and audio profiles WILL NEVER BE connected with video size. It's up to you to select correct size. I don't care if stupid appleTV accepts only two resolutions (720p24fps and 540p30fps) How come PS3 can play everything in High Profile up to 1080p@29.97fps??? Why did you buy this crap? There are better solutions and probably cheaper!
BTW. BT is right. Next time at least do your homework.
