Do you have 5.1 samples I could test on?

[edit]

Since I convert to WAVE, not sure the encoders can handle files larger than 4GB...

Maybe... maybe not. Requires NTFS too, or there's a 4 GB limit. But if you want a sample I still have one.

a sample would be great, then I'll make the encoder match the source for 5.1, 2.0 and 1.0

Sure, it's only 3 mins, but the whole file is 400 MB.

AC3, Dolby Digital, 5.1

I could make a dropdown with: Auto, Mono, Stereo, 5.1

@Eretria-chan

Do you have a sample, like in mkv, with audio (5.1) and video. Bencos isn't great with audio-only sources. 10 sec would be good. Thanks!

Hmmm. It's in AVI. But I'll mux the audio and cut a 10 sec sample.

22 MB. 11 seconds.

Say, how about actual profiles for different sources that sets "Source" and bitrate, eventually 5.1, audio, etc?
For Anime sources, it would typically be Bitrate 318, 32 kbps sound, stereo and Source Anime / Toons.
Then there could be Movie at 500 kbps for video, 32 kbps for audio and source Movie.
And maybe DVD Rip which would set bitrate to about 1500 kbps, 32 kbps for audio and source Movie / Anime or something. 1500 should be about good for almost flawless DVD quality encodes.

Right now I'm testing to see what bitrate I could use for a typical movie source (non-DVD). Which means poor quality usually. 500 kbps seems good, going to try 400 and lower too.
1000 kbps for DVD quality is pretty good, but not entirely DVD quality, but still very close.

I think I'll let the channel count a user setting, no auto. If the user set 5.1 and a 128kbps, and in the filelist I hit a stereo file, I don't think it'S right that bencos chose the new bitrate to use.

I think it's a good idea to link Source and video bitrate. Isn't anime set to 268?

But if 5.1 is selected, Bencos must allow higher bitrates at least.
Yes. Yes, anime was originally 268, but I found that it sometimes smoothes out the intro of some movies a little too much. 318 produces almost perfect quality encodes, so... Well, I guess it's up to each and every one.

Yes, 5.1 will have higher bitrates selection

Btw, maybe different levels of the profiles would be a good idea? Like, high, medium or low for anime content. Only, it would control the bitrate this time.
Obviously, when encoding DVDs, you need a lot more bitrate rather than encoding non-DVD sources, so I thought that might also be a good idea. Though a movie is a movie, depending on the quality of the source, different amounts of bitrate can be used to encode it, since all that bitrate would be a waste if the source is bad quality.

I would like to know if its possible to add a funcfion to BENCOS that calculates the hh:mm:ss total of episodes dragged to it. I use windows media player 10 to get the total time and megui's bitrate calculator to bitrate. If BENCOS could at least give me this total time, I could install windows media player 11 (which didn't give me the time in seconds :P). I don't know if it's possible to add a calculator, but that would be great. Something like: add 12 episodes, total time 4 hours, 39 minutes and 36 seconds; desired final size (I would give this): 596.4MB (49.7MBx12). Bitrate that should be used: XXX. :'( :'( Wonderful!!!

It's very hard to implement this, like in megui? I just think that would help a lot!!!

How do you do Stéphane, use a standard bitrate for every anime?

@Eretria-chan

The "Source" menu will already mod the bitrate, once done.

@Weltall

I could add a bitrate calculator (as in RA4/5). I think to create the thing you'd like would require more time than what's been already spent on bencos.

As for me I always use standard bitrates. I have no problem with some filesize differences.

RA5 calculator didn't give me right bitrate, thanks anyway. I think I'll stick with this process I'm familiar to

I have this size problems cause I always want to use a full dvd, I thought you could just do the same thing but you had a better solution to calculate.

I think the only thing missing now is an encode list recording after closing (maybe a save list like in RA5) and drag and drop

OK then, I'm just happy with it.

wouldn't be hard to save the list.
will be hard for drag drop

If I could save a list, I shouldn't need to drag and drop so much. The pain is have to select everything again after a system pane.

Get a UPS and beer

List save / load should take more than 10 lines. I'll try to make it this weekend.
