RipBot264 v1.18.3 - Simple and easy to use GUI -> IPOD . PSP . CONSOLES . BLURAY

[medp7060]

Is there a way to increase the "visibility" of the interface, i.e. the font of the GUI is too small.

Edited: managed to do a few tests. no more comments because I have removed it for good.

Atak,
Great program. Thanks for all your support.
1 question...
1. When converting a mkv file to AVCHD with DTS audio (bitrate: 1536 Kbps, sample rate: 48 Khz, 5.1), I generally change the audio option to 5.1 Aften, 640kbps, AC3 instead of leaving the xxx stream-copyxxx as the default audio. Is there any benefit to more stable play back on my stand alone blu-ray player (sony bdp-s550)? I feel like the playback is sometimes buggy. Sometimes, I will get only audio but no video for a minute, then it pops up OR the tv just says no signal. Sometimes, reloading the DVDR+DL disc makes it work. I'm trying to figure out if this "bugginess is a result of my encoding options, or if it a problem with my bluray player, or my reciever. My Pioneer reciever can play all audio including DTS so I am not sure why I keep changing the audio? I guess I'm doing it because I think the AC3 is "more stable"? Does this make any sense? Would love to hear your opinion.

If it helps, I usually 2-pass, lock the size to 8150MB, choosing AVCHD as my output, and burning to a DVDR+DL.

Thanks in advance,
Philippe

My specs (with all HDMI cables going into the Reciever):
Sony Blu-ray player BDP-S550
Pioneer Reciever VSX-819H
TV is LG 37" HDTV

My computer is running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, Intel Quad-core Q9550 @ 2.83Ghz, 4GB ram, DVD burner is HP DVD writer 1070r, media is Verbatim DVD+R DL (8x speed), burning with IMGburn.

@pdek
Try to burn your DVD at 4X instead of maximum. Use DVD+RW if you don't want to waste your discs. Let me know if this helps or not.

Atak, do you have any suggestions on my errror?

Great program, thanks a lot for creating. I've successfully encoded some of my 1080p mkv files with ac3 audio to 720p to save space and the 720p look great. A few questions:

1. Can I keep HD audio from mkv container if I leave at copy stream?
2. I have a recording from media center that I've converted to mpeg. When I play the video and audio are in sync. When I try to use ripbot to reduce the size the audio becomes out of sync with the video. I've also used mkvmerge to seperate the video and audio and both are the same length. Using Ripbot on the two separate files also results in out of sync audio. Any ideas? I'm using the high 4.0 HD.Bluray.consoles profile.

Thanks again.

can you upload 50 mb sample (mpeg) to www.mediafire.com (use DGSplit)

@PsyChoses
Default 4.0 profile is enough. Period.

Thanks a lot Atak_Snajpera.
Installation of MP 11 solved the problem for me.

Hi Atak,
I am using your marvellous program for ripping video for my Sony X Series (NWZ-X1060) Walkman. But 2 channel audio setting is upto 128kbps. I wish to use, higher 192kbps audio setting too.

Can you please add this setting under the "Audio Profile" preferences? (Being: 2.0 CT, AAC-LC, 192 kbps [abr])

Or, can you give me the way, how to apply this setting?

Thank You...

[Wishbringer]

I hardly doubt you can hear a difference between 128kbps and 192kbps AAC stereo with a walkman and delivered headphones...

[Atak_Snajpera]

@APorter819
temporary solution to your problem
1) change extension of your file to .m2v (for example sample.m2v)
2) open .m2v file in ripbot
3) enable inverse telecine function
4) set audio delay to -750ms

After this i have perfect audio synchronization. I don't know if this works with your whole file. Let's hope that audio delay is constant.

@magmo
did you have the same problem in older versions of ripbot?

[blacksapprow]

Hmm,
The hint, seemed to me like an effect type Atak!

For 2 channel audio 128kbps is a really low bit rate by means of audio quality. The cinema sound is much lower in quality than a studio recording. I didn't only requested it for only choosing 192Kbps use. I may use higher 256kbps and 320kbps setting when necessary, if possible of course!

English/USA or other country specific films generally recording in real time with microphoses "outside" not in dubbing rooms. Therefore hearing the speech is really a matter sometimes. Increasing the bitrate might be helpful in many cases.

This setting is not only necessary for me here. It might be useful to others...

I will give this a try tonight and report back.

For aac 128kbps isn't low.
http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=AAC

Reaches transparency in most samples and for most users at around 150 kbps

Movies aren't much different from music in that regard. From my experience with the NeroAAC encoder movie and tv audio tracks usually come out smaller than the average music track at a given quality settings, so the psy-model the encoder uses thinks they are easier to compress.

[blacksapprow]

Gee,
I have invented a new device by mistake.

microphose singular, microphoses plural

Of course the right typing I meant was "microphones" Yeah they may contain a lot of microbs on the hoses. Not completely wrong in fact

I also would like to have 192kbps.
