And thanx to all the good info I could get reading this thread
Hi Wolfe999,

Thankyou very much for the great feedback, hopefully some other users might be interested.

And I will continue....

Cheers

Phew, what a month. I'll be finally getting back to my encoding backlog soon (haven't even had time to update to see the Demo mode yet) but I just remembered something I wanted to ask Atak for a long, looong, looooong time:

• In the New Job window, the Output (file path/name) edit field: is it possible to make it editable (same as the Description field above it), so I can just CTRL-V paste the path and name without opening a Save As dialogue?

I don't know about the rest of us, but I'd certainly find it extremely time-saving, and I'm guessing it's an extremely quick and easy tweak to do, with no apparent downsides. I'm guessing it was disabled to avoid accidentally misspelled path errors, but hey, if you screw up one time, you'll either return to using the Save As dialogue or start being more careful about what you type in there, right? Thanks, Atak.

Ripbot freezes when closing?

Is anyone having issues closing RipBot? I've got 2 Windows 10 systems.

On my brand new AMD Ryzen 5900 system after attempting to close RipBot, the queue window closes, but the system tray icon remains. I have to go to task manager and end process on RipBot264.exe. This happens whether I've done anything in RipBot or not (e.g. open RipBot, do nothing else other than click close). The first version installed here was v1.26.0, but it continues to occur after the update.

My old Intel i7-4770k system didn't have this issue, but then the update to v1.26.1 has introduced the problem on this system too.

Hi coreying,

This is your first post here, in just over 8 years....

OK, so unfortunately this seems to happen every so often, and it's not necessarily a fault with RipBot, but it IS annoying when one pc does it, and another doesn't.

I have this happen, and have to do what you described, not sure if Atak would be able to track it down.

Off topic a bit here...

However, I have noticed some rather sneaky changes to RipBot with the last couple of updates (not that should affect this, tho), and it's mainly to do with the Avisynth MTmodes & how many "Use multiple threads for encoding" you can set for Prefetch.

It use to be a Limit of 16, NOW you can go all the way up to 64.


Back on topic...

So have you been using RipBot all these years, or just recently...just wondering about the version you had, before the problem started.

I doubt that it would be the AMD platform, as I have a 3950X, and it tends to behave itself pretty well.

Have you got nVidia software / drivers, or any Logitech stuff ??

Check if problem stil occurs in "safe mode". I suspect some app running in background is doing this.

If there's something that has been happening, that's a little annoying is, when using DE, just very randomly, it will just "finish" a Job, and start on the next one, when indeed to previous Job has NOT completed.

Fortunately, 95% of the time, when you go back to that stopped Job, it will resume, BUT when it doesn't, it's rather frustrating, and when that happens on a LONG 4K encode, it's a real PITA !!!

Maybe so, and I do have a 27" 2160p LG monitor.

But the situation doesn't change, it does NOT display custom settings !!!

Interesting, I just noticed that this field in Batch, IS editable...

Question/idea: is possible to use a remote G-Colab notebook too as encoding server ?

Some (maybe) useful Colabs:
- https://colab.research.google.com/gi...r/MiXLab.ipynb
- https://colab.research.google.com/gi...nthColab.ipynb
- https://colab.research.google.com/gi...r_GDrive.ipynb
- https://colab.research.google.com/gi...r/FFmpeg.ipynb

Hope that inspires !

note: last but not least, why RB264 does not have a git ?

Yes, using RipBot all these years. It's excellent software.

All the above

I tried Safe Mode, and yep, RipBot closes fine. So I rebooted into Windows, and first started by closing everything in the System Tray. This is when I noticed that each time I started RipBot, the "NVIDIA Settings" tray icon would reappear.

So I tried stopping the Nvidia services one by one and found that the issue is with the "NVIDIA LocalSystem Container" which starts 3 x nvcontainer.exe background tasks. I can perform a reboot, stop only this single service, and RipBot closes normally.

It appears this service must be running for the NVIDIA GeForce Experience software to work. Not specifically sure why it causes RipBot to break or why RipBot starts the Nvidia tray icon etc.

But I have also replicated this on my old Intel computer that I've used RipBot on successfully for the past 8 years. As mentioned in my previous post, it also broke recently. I thought it was the update to 1.26.1 - but around the same time I had also put in a new GPU which updated the drivers so...

Thanks guys

I always install clean drivers without spying services like GeForce experience. By the way. I have never had any issues with AMD drivers for example. NVIDIA really likes to know what executables you launch...

For some time now encodingclient.exe halts at 100% at random encodes. The main window closes, but the task is running and tray icon still showing 100% completion. When killing task, muxing start and encoding is resuming on next item.
Very annoying as it halts the whole ripbot thing until i kill the task again. Tried to initiate a few encodes from another computer, but same random thing happen.
Seems like it cant quit after encoding sometimes

I haven't touched encodinclient's code for long time so maybe some app running in background is causing this issue. See above posts about GeForce experience

That's almost the opposite to the random problems I have...

https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.p...78#post1945078

But yeah, as Atak mentioned, if you're running any nVidia app's (behind the scenes), they play havoc with certain RB functions...someone needs to fix something...

I think you can disable them in ProcessHacker.....

Hi all,
I search my future CPU for Ribot264 for 4K h265 @60fps.
AMD Ryzen, Intel i7/i9 ?

My actual CPU is Intel i7 3930k 6/12 threads (2011) recode at 3/4 fps.
My dream is 15/20 or better fps.

i7 3930k vs Last intel i9

I have an overclocked 3930K, they were pretty good, back in the day, but these day's, pretty slow for this sort of "work".

I also have a slightly overclocked Ryzen 9 3950X, and it's pretty damn good !!

I would strongly suggest a Ryzen 9 5900X (or higher).

Of course a Threadripper 32 or 64 core would just smoke this stuff, but at what cost

Hey Ripmann,

Today is your lucky day, Atak has released another autoupdate, and amongst a couple of other changes (yet tbd), your request has been granted, and you can now freely edit this :-
Quote:
• In the New Job window, the Output (file path/name) edit field: is it possible to make it editable (same as the Description field above it), so I can just CTRL-V paste the path and name without opening a Save As dialogue?

Hello,

How many fps in 4K encoding do you encode with your Ryzen?

Has anyone done the test with a Threadripper 32 or 64?
