Feature Request For Gknot

[Hiro2k]

Hi Len0x I know you've been busy lately with all the new things you're adding to AutoGK, but maybe you could add this little feature for those of use still using Gknot.


I encode alot of anime, and as you can see from my specs I have room to hold alot of it at a time. As time goes by and hard drives increase in size, it won't be too uncommon for people to hold multiple DVD's on their HD at a time. And the change of time will also mean that newer processors will be developed to increase ripping time. So it is evident that we will be able to do more encodes at a faster rate. However Gknot only allows for 8 slots at a time :(. (I like BSing to much :devil: )


I was wondering if you would be willing to increase the number of items you can encode from 8 to something higher like 16 or even allow users to define it in a config file. Currently I can only do 8 episodes at a time, when I could easily do the whole 24 anime series at one time.

Thanks Len0x

I might be missing something, but queue has no limit size currently!
There are 8 profiles (which means that you can save settings for 8 movies for later processing), but it has nothing to do with how many items can be in the queue...

I was lost for words, I know it has no limit for ques, but I was asking if you could increase the number of profiles. It makes it easier for me to not lose my place and forget which one I have already done. It has happened to me alot already, or else I wouldn't be asking for it.

Thanks.

I still wondering though - episodes usually have the same settings all the way through seasons and I don't understand how you can forget what you queued if you can simply have a look at the real queue or the place where you were encoding. Your original point was - you wanna able to queue lots of eps in one go or not?

P.S. I _never_ myself used profiles at all as the only time they are needed if you want to save something for processing a couple of days later...

Yeah that's a good point about the settings not changing from one episode to another. But I did not want to encode all the episodes in one day, I wanted to do them later with each one having it's own profile. That way I just go to the add job button and press it for each profile instead of having to open different D2V files and replacing the audio and subiteles right before I want to encode them all. And I can't do that with the current limit of 8 since some of them have slightly different audio sizes which throws off the final file size.

If I'm the only one who wants this, then don't worry about. When I get around to learning Delphi, I'll make my own special build ;)

number is increased to 16 for the next 0.29 alpha build
