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

[Lycan91]

Hello,

I am using Ripbot264 1.24.1 in DE mode on my 4 computers. However, EncodingServer.exe does not start on my computer with bi-xeon e5-2697v4 (72 logical processors), even with the latest ripbot update (1.24.1). Ripbot works well on my bi-xeon only in stand-alone mode

If I disable one of the two processors (36 logical processors), ripbot works

Do you have an idea to solve my problem?

Thank you

Run EncodingServer.exe via command line

EncodingServer.exe /affinity 1

If above command will work then set manually correct affinity mask. There is definitely some issue with cpus with more than 64 logical processors. Unfortunately I have no access to such machines so there is zero chance that I will be able to locate problem.

Hello Atak,

Thanks

I started via command line encodingServer.exe / affinity 1. It starts and i try to activate all CPU, however after the CPU32, it is not possible to activate the last



And we can activate only one of two nodes available





In other hand, if i keep only one CPU (I remove one processor), i can activate all logical processors in EncoderServer

If you are interested, i can make some tests... or i can give you a remote access (google or TeamViewer) to see this issue

What does happen if you disable HT in bios?

[byteshare]

x265 3.1+5 is now stable:

There were some fixes to aq-motion:

Stax does that for you I guess.

Hello Atak,

I desactivated HT in bios and EncoderServer.exe start with ripbot264 (Without Commandline), it works fine however only 18 logical / physical processors are active (It's normal without HyperThreading, virtual processors are disabled) on each processor, and only one node is active.





If we choose the socket 1 in "additionnal server", EncodingServer only keeps 4 processors and doesn't activate node 1, the node 0 is always enabled





Do you want i make other tests ?

Bye

1) Download this small program https://www.mediafire.com/file/zwurx...ask64.exe/file
2) Activate HT again in bios
3) Run RipBot264.exe
4) Check PID for RipBot264.exe in Process Hacker/Process Explorer
Example

5) run cmd.exe as administrator
6) GetProcessAffinityMask64.exe HERE_PUT_PID (in my case it was GetProcessAffinityMask64.exe 3932)
7) Show me content of GetProcessAffinityMask64Log.txt file

Atak, I'm looking at upgrading my current system. I've always purchased Intel in the past but am open to the new AMD chips. Someone suggested the Ryzen 3600X. Are there any performance differences in comparable chips between AMD/Intel in RipBot?

[Atak_Snajpera]

Ryzen 3600x is basically 8700k in video encoding tasks.

Ps. Buy 3600 without X because https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDV7aA6arVo

Hi Atak,

I activated HT in bios, and i made your tips

When i start ripbot264 (EncodingServer.exe doesn't run in HT mode), i obtained the following log:



ProcessAffinityMask=0
SystemAffinityMask=0
Node=0
ProcessAffinityMaskPerNode=0
SystemAffinityMaskPerNode=0

Then if i run Ripbot264.exe and i forced EncodingServer.exe /affinity 1 (Via cmd.exe), i get the following log



ProcessAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
Node=0
ProcessAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111

What are your thoughts on the 3700x?

3700x is basically a 9900k in x265. Your money ,your choice.

You get zeros in first example because you didn't run cmd.exe as administrator like I said.

BTW. Does EncodingServer start with these commands?

EncodingServer.exe /node 0
EncodingServer.exe /node 1

[Lycan91]

Atak,

In administrator mode, only ripbot264 (Without EncodingServer.exe started due to HT mode)





the log is:

ProcessAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
Node=0
ProcessAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111

If i make only EncodingServer.exe /node 0 (via cmd.exe) EncodingServer.exe doesn't run



However, if i do EncodingServer.exe /affinity 1 - EncodingServer.exe start





The log is:

ProcessAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
Node=1
ProcessAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111

And now, as EncodingServer.exe run, if i do EncodingServer.exe /node 0 or EncodingServer.exe /node 1, nothing happens either



The log is:

ProcessAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
Node=0
ProcessAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111

Nevertheless, i don't know if it's important but i noticed that when i execute EncodingServer.exe /node 0

The log is:

ProcessAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
Node=1
ProcessAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111

And if i do EncodingServer.exe /node 1

The log is:

ProcessAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMask=111111111111111111111111111111111111
Node=0
ProcessAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111
SystemAffinityMaskPerNode=111111111111111111111111111111111111



it's seems that the node number is switched when we do EncodingServer.exe /node 1 or EncodingServer.exe /node 0 twice

A quick question for you guys. I just upgraded my PC and I have an SSD drive plus a couple of HDDs.
What is the best configuration/settings to make sure that my encoding jobs don't kill the SSD due to many constant files being written?

I doubt that you will be able to kill NAND in your SSD by just doing encoding stuff.

I use MKVToolNix a lot with stuff that has intro trailers and outro trailers after I encode.

Otherwise you can define the frames to use with AVISynth.

Thanks. That was my fear. Unfortunately, the cuts don't always land on a keyframe, so I'll have to just do the video encoding in RB264 and figure out another solution to cut the audio properly.

Would be "neat" to have something like this integrated into RipBot without having to manually do the CSV file steps.

When I click the "x" in the top-right corner to close RipBot264, it hangs. I have to force RipBot to close. Deleting RipBot and re-installed it has had no effect. I've been using RipBot for nearly a decade. It starting doing this last year, if i recall correctly.

I'm running Windows 10 Pro, newest version.
