Ps. I suspect that problem is related with variable FPS in original video.
Awesome ... where can I upload it ?

Thanks for your time ... DVD's are so ancient (compared to Bluray, 4/8k) that it's hardly worth fixing RipBot264 to deal with every issue in the old world.
As it is ... it runs beautifully, is largely bullet-proof and has most of the options anybody would want or need.

If windows ran as well as this app, nobody would have any interest in Linux ... or even Unix for that matter.


Thanks much

File has been badly muxed! FPS in container is 2x higher than FPS in video stream.



Solution. Remux mkv in MKVToolnix and specify correct fps for container.

Is there a way to have Ripbot not generate chapter markers? I would like no chapter information at all if possible.

Not sure if there's a global setting, but in case of individual jobs, you quickly edit out the stuff you don't need in chapters.txt in the job's folder (right click a job -> Open Job Folder).

My bad, I muxed the original VOB segments into a single file.
Remuxed to 29.97 fps (30000/1001), encoded with the restore->23.976 fps but ... unfortunately, it didn't remove the interlace.

So, I did a double encode test on the first 100mb chunk and uploaded the results:
1) Decimate Restore -> 23,976 fps (20.5 mb) . (Badly interlaced)
2) Deinterlace BFF -> 29.97 (18 mb) . (The interlace is very nicely gone)

Quite frankly, the BFF->29 fps conversion is small enough ... but I'm still keen to Restore it downto 24 fps aswell.
Also, I usually encode semi-anomorphically (ie non 1:1 pixel aspect ratio) with slightly elastic width and/or height,
letting MKV signal and display the correct aspect ratio.
I chose Custom [x,xx:1] but the picture seems a little bit out of shape.

Concert was originally recorded in 29.97 FPS interlaced. Converting to 23.976fps makes zero sense.

Lol ... too true ... I hate NTSC (Too little resolution, too many fps)
The Pavarotti Duets (2008) compilation was also released on PAL in 25 fps but the original footage was probably shot at 24 fps.

Most pre-digital movies were filmed at 24 fps and sped-up for PAL 25 fps ... ie the movie actually runs 4% faster and
sound/voices are at a higher pitch compared to the original.
I use to rewind those PAL movies back to 24fps [not ChangeFps(24) which maintains duration]. Bluray has pretty much sorted that out.
Rewound movies look and sound more natural (no helium voices).

Many new movies/documentaries are now shot at 30 fps but I still like to take some of them back to
24fps unless they benefit from the higher framerate (eg fast action movies).
8k supports 120 fps (240 for VR) but the higher framerate benefits to end-user seem less obvious than the higher resolution and 12-bit color.

That said, I'm happy with Pavarotti (The Duets) at NTSC 29fps (RipBot makes it happen) ... but it's nice to experiment and push the boundaries.

Thanks much


It's all good

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you're getting confused about this...

I have been "watching" this, and the only instance of it having 59.94 was on the original 100mb sample's, which is wrong.

Wouldn't it depend on how the samples were compiled, for the fps to change.

The "original" VOB's are as so:-

Bit rate mode : Constant
Bit rate : 6 500 kb/s
Width : 720 pixels
Height : 480 pixels
Display aspect ratio : 4:3
Frame rate : 29.970 (30000/1001) FPS
Standard : NTSC
Color space : YUV
Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0
Bit depth : 8 bits
Scan type : Interlaced
Scan order : Bottom Field First
Compression mode : Lossy

I've actually got this DVD.

Tested with a 33 second dv avi and it never stops Gathering information. Left for 20 minutes.

Theres no cpu (i7 9700K) activity on the RipBot thread, and no disk activity either.

It's not crashed as I can Abort and close it fine.

No I'm right. Each Field is unique which means that after deinterlacing you obtain 59.94 progressive FPS. Live concerts were often recorded like that.

MPC-HC preview error

So "boss",

I have many, many old TV recordings that I thought I might start running thru RB, so I loaded one, and as I need to the get the aspect ratio correct, I clicked on "preview", and it came up with this error:-

https://www.mediafire.com/view/8z3f8...error.jpg/file

If I take out the audio track, then that error also goes away, but then MPC just show's a black screen.

What would you suggest ??

And I know I'm not going to win this argument, but it's 29.97 interlaced (as per original vobs), but then you're saying it's 59.94 deinterlaced.

If it plays OK in it's original format, why would you want/need to deinterlace it ??

It's also not just one long concert, it's a compilation of many occasions where he's sung with other famous singers.

The question wasn't nearly as stupid as it may have sounded. A filter could provide a set of default compression/reduction techniques even at its lowest setting, and the reason I asked it is because Ripbot's GUI sets the filter's Mono Noise value to 0 by default. You may want to provide some sort of a "disabled" visual hint (gray it out, don't allow values lower than 1, put an exclamation mark icon next to the zero, or just mention it in a tooltip) for those who may think that they'll be running a denoise filter on its lowest setting. I asked to confirm my assumption. A lot of people won't.

In mpc-hc enable that option


I made a mistake and I forgot to leave that one option enabled.

DVD Voyager and Deep Space 9

So I have these shows on DVD and they've been turned into individual episodes using MakeMKV. These show use variable frame rate during the show and they will switch between 24 to 30 fps. Reading online there are several workarounds to get these shows encoded correctly, mostly using Handbrake and I was planning to use Handbrake for these.

My thinking is the whole thing should be converted to 120 fps and then downed to 24fps.

Atak, what your thoughts regarding these strange encodings. From what I remember, RipBot does not do variable frame rate.
