StaxRip

[tormento]

Custom command in the codec options
I don't think it's a matter of the encoder.

[DJATOM]

I think encoder should print an error about input and default colorspace mismatch and don't try to resolve since desired output is undefined.

It's the [resize] header to make me wonder.

[DJATOM]

There is no option to disable that resize (without nuking the code and recompiling). You probably can ignore it as UV planes will have constant value anyway, so it doesnt change the result.

Greetings, I have a question.
Does Staxrip offer the possibility that if I have a certain audio source that a certain profile will be loaded automatically?
In other words, if I have AC3, he should take the copy / mux profile and if I have DTS, he should take the AAC profile.
It can be done by hand, but can something like that also be automated?

[tormento]

Could be possible to automatically import QP file in the same directory of .avs?

Not so useful for single file mode but helpful for batch too.

[legend]

How do I sharpen video? Is there have option to do that.

[Atlantis]

in Filters->Line->Sharpen

[legend]

How do I add my desired text in the end of source file. For example I like to add- 720p.x265.HEVC in the end and automatically add in every encode

[Mister XY]

How can i load with ps1 script different Audio Profiles?
# active project
$p = [ShortcutModule]:: p

#global object with miscelenius stuff
$g = [ShortcutModule]::g

if ([MediaInfo]::GetAudio($p.FirstOriginalSourceFile, "Format") -eq "AC-3")
{
$muxAudio0 = new-object "MuxAudioProfile"
$g.LoadAudioProfile0($muxAudio0)


$muxAudio1 = new-object "NullAudioProfile"
$g.LoadAudioProfile1($muxAudio1)
}

Hello, is there any way to modify writing library like this?

Hi, I am playing with the Options/Subtitles/Preferred Languages function, but I can not seem to find the naming/shortcut for Norwegian language to be included in this list. Does anyone know what to type in Preferred Languages to make it highlight Norwegian subtitles when demuxing?
I have tried: No, Nor, Norwegian, Norway, Norsk, Bok, Bokol

[videoh]

nor

So I finally tried qaac for AAC encoding. My God how fast it is. I always used eac3to/Nero. Not anymore!

The same movie took
eac3to 08:42
qaac 01:43

I knew I shouldn't use something that is 10 years old!

Hi!

Where did you download fdk aac? It seems it is not included by default?

[jlw_4049]

Hi!

Ok then.

What would be a good setting that would boost the dialogue? Something similar to dynaudnorm in ffmpeg

There is a thread in audio section.

[Magik Mark]

Thanks a lot!

Now I'm trying to figure out how to configure it to something similar to dynaudnorm.

Any tips?

There are some ffmpeg builds with fdk-aac enabled. If you are used to it, it’s plain transparent.

[jlw_4049]

Yeah compiling it yourself if you've never done it is tedious

Guys

How do we encode HE-AAC v2? I would like to do some experiment

[Atlantis]

Could you please explain something. Using qaac 2.72 Patman quality 50. The command line is qaac64.exe --tvbr 50.

During encode, staxrip is showing
AAC-LC Encoder, TVBR q54, Quality 96

What's q54? Why 54?

[legend]

Can anyone help me to do the following

1. How do I make sample from SelectRangeEvery. When I do that it shows full runtime of the video rather than from SelectRangeEvery command.
2. How do I change frame rate mode from variable to constant in x265 encoding?

[Atlantis]

If you write SelectRangeEvery(2400,48) it should show only 2% of the movie.

In x265 as far as I know it is constant by default, you don't have to do anything.
How do you get variable framerate?

[jlw_4049]

Selectrangeevery(1000,10) every 1000 frames would encode 10.

Yes I know it’s constant by default. But in mediainfo it shows frame rate mode : variable

See the UPDATED FAQ 3 here (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=424070#post424070)

@Tormento
I also recommend qaac over fdk

[tormento]

Updated x264 and x265 are out but not compatible with StaxRip status window.

Do you plan to build a update and compatible version of those or have we to wait for next StaxRip iteration?

P.S: I loved when Staxrip had nightly too...

Which are considered the absolutely best denoisers out there, in both CPU and GPU categories? I need to remove grain with losing as little quality and detail as possible.

RipBot used MDegrain and KNLMeansCL, so these are the only two I'm familiar with. I like CPU-based MDegrain, but I never found a way to effectively use GPU-based KNLMeansCL at stronger values without losing a lot of detail, even with "wmode=3". My usual solution was to use MDegrain for main processing with a very slight pass of KNLMeansCL (to slighty smooth things over), but I see a ton of newer filters I've never heard of and I have no idea which ones are considered much better alternatives for what I need.

I got a new system and was testing h265 encoding. I finally can do nVidia H265 encoding and was amazed how faster it is than x265. My system is already a lot faster for x265 than before.

x265 : 5.31 fps.
nVidia H265 : 60.96 fps!

Is nVidia H265 encoding quality as good as x265 encoding?

Next I tried Intel H265 encoding and it says your hardware doesn't support it. How come? I have the 11th Gen Intel processor. What more do I need?

That being said if the quality is good enough for you then there isn't anything wrong with it.

For your Intel iGPU you might need to enable it in BIOS or hook up another monitor to the on board video. Otherwise when it's set to auto and nothing is using it it's actually off and your computer will say that it's not there for programs looking for it

For my very limited 2 tests I have done both 2K and 4K HDR, nVidia H265 looks good for the same final bitrate. I have a GeForce RTX 3070. What would be the difference if it was an RTX 3080? (difference in h265 encoding only)

Should I go and enable the Intel encoding? Is it worth it compared to nVidia?

I'm not up to date on rather or not Intel or nvidia is better but I imagine nvidia would be better

Nope, not liking NVEnc. Got excited too soon. It gives banding effects in gradients. X265 gives smooth surfaces. Back to x265.

The good thing is that I learned Multithreading! I was surprised that some of the filters are still as slow as before, QTGMC for example. I get like 3 fps like the old system.
Then I learned how to use Multithreading and it's up to 8 fps.

I imagined since this system is 2.5 times faster in x265 encoding, it should be 2.5 times faster in all filters but it is as slow as my old system with QTGMC. I suppose it is not optimized for newer processors?

Thank you for sharing your experiences - could you possibly share a snippet of NVenc banding? I've been using the NVenc encoder and haven't noticed any so just wondering what I should be looking for. Thank you.

Left is x265 CRF 22, right is nVidia H265 QP 26. All 10 bit. This makes an equivalent bitrate.

However if you go with high enough bitrate with nvidia you wont see banding. But I don't want that much bitrate.

There's ways to make it a little faster but it really doesn't have much to do with your CPU speed. It's just sloooooow lol

I made it 3 times faster. Put in the first line

SetFilterMTMode("DEFAULT_MT_MODE", MT_MULTI_INSTANCE)

and the last line

Prefetch(8)

8 is number of threads.

[dr.zapp]

I have a AMD Ryzen 9 3900X, it flies through QTGMC X265 encoding. The following script gives me 40+ FPS @60% CPU.

SetFilterMTMode("DEFAULT_MT_MODE", MT_MULTI_INSTANCE)
QTGMC1 = QTGMC(preset="Slower", inputType=2, edithreads=64)
QTGMC2 = QTGMC(preset="Slower", inputType=3, prevGlobals="Reuse", edithreads=64)
Repair(QTGMC1, QTGMC2, 1)
Prefetch(64)

[Atlantis]

I tried Prefetch(16) but it slows down very badly. I have Intel i9-11900K 3.5GHZ. Best is Prefetch(8) for me.

Is adding edithreads= necessary? I just use QTGMC(InputType=2, TR2=2)

Your source is progressive, right? Why do you use 2 QTGMC, does it make it faster?
QTGMC1 = QTGMC(preset="Slower", inputType=2, edithreads=64)
QTGMC2 = QTGMC(preset="Slower", inputType=3, prevGlobals="Reuse", edithreads=64)
Repair(QTGMC1, QTGMC2, 1)
