Do I need to put those filters on every PC, or just the main?

I get errors on every job with the custom filter

Hi slalom,

I think you misunderstood this post....that frame rate was the original file, not the one(s) that I ended up with, as I ran out of patience, and didn't complete any of them

Hi again, slalom,

I would doubt that you have to add these to every pc, ONLY the pc(s) that you queue up jobs on.

Servers just "help".

So what kind of error are you getting, as I have just gone thru the same process...initialy I had an error due to the name I gave the filters.avs.

@Ripman
Iīve been where you are - trying to achieve beste quality while encoding - often getting quite high bitrates and sizes...
After many years of listening and comparing - today I simply do it this way:
If for any reason, the quality hast to be preserved a 100%, I simply do not re-encode and jusr mux the original Audio
For all other cases, the given presets are sufficient (in my opinion, maybe with age the ears don't pick up enough detail... ).

In rare cases where I really need something different than the ripbot presets, I turn to another tool and encode audio there (dmmediaencoder,hybrid,staxrip,etc...) and remux afterwards.

After all, when going for max quality/size ratio, the topic becomes quite subjective and you actualy have to listen to what you encoded intensively.. AAC-LC can be done in VBR, AAC_HE Multichannel can`t, some encoders sound better than others with different source materials, some scale better between channels...

your idea of having a ram-drive as temp is interesting - do you really get a relevant speed advantage over a SSD? Does it make a big difference if you encode for 10 hours and then save 1 minute ssd/ramdisk? Or is the speed difference more noticable?

I donīt think so, since the main pc is compiling the scripts and simply servs them via the shared dir to the servers...
Other wise, the server on the main pc should run ok, all others not..
Since errors are everywhere, maybe there is a typo in the filters?
Do the jobs without the custom filter run smoothly?

If servers encode chunks then problem is not in custom script.

MDegrain3

For those using MDegrain3, don't forget to add MDegrain3 to the list of multiple processing threads in the Main Settings window tab.

Same for MDegrain1, right?

I changed to mdegrain2 and it started

Can someone write the steps to add the extra filters and how to use them please?

Easier to just uncheck it IMO. I haven't had problems that I've noticed at least.

There are two methods I know:
Method A: Copy/paste(or type) your script into the #Custom section
Method B: Save them as a .avs file in *RipBot\Tools\AviSynth plugins\Scripts\Custom, then select the custom script in the AVS settings.
If you have custom filters (IE not included with RipBot) I've found it easier to have them saved in the same location on all of the machines or you need to write your script to use the network path of the RipBot temp Tools folder (assuming you've saved them in the Tools folder of the main RipBot machine).

If you want more in-depth than that it gets quickly into the subject of how to use AVS, which is more likely IMO solved with specific questions or looking a guides such as: http://avisynth.nl/index.php/Getting_started

Atak, what are you thoughts on on limiting threads to specific filters? What circumstances should they limited or not limited.

Mt should be used only If you do some heavy filtering. If you just resize then using prefetch threads may even decrease performance.

I used that method with the avs files. I'll copy them now to the other PCs before adding new jobs

Ah, well that explains it. I'm always using some filters that are heavy.

How about one of these https://hexus.net/tech/reviews/stora...cie-gen-4-ssd/ to go with the 570 board.

I tried a new job. MDegrain1 was used. Clients were starting and stopping on a loop. I don't know what is wrong

I haven't tried MDegrain1, usually SMDegrain (MD3-4) with KLMeans as the prefilter but when I do use just MEdgrain it is usually 2-4.
Does the video play the preview on the main machine? If not, what error.
What errors are you getting on the clients?
Other ideas if you're waiting for another response:
-Try setting up a sample job on the client machines and see if that can encode as well.
--If they don't work, see if you get an error in the AVIsynth preview video.

There is a message, it says

Code:
Cannot load file 'C:/Program Files/RipBot264/Tools/AviSynth plugins/mvtools/mvtools2.dll' Platform returned code 126

(E:\Temp\RipBot264temp\Job332/job332_preview.avs, line 39)
this is line 39
Code:
#Denoise
Loadplugin("C:\Program Files\RipBot264\Tools\AviSynth plugins\mvtools\mvtools2.dll")
super=MSuper(video,pel=2)
bv1=MAnalyse(super,blksize=8,isb=true,delta=1,overlap=4)
fv1=MAnalyse(super,blksize=8,isb=false,delta=1,overlap=4)
video=MDegrain1(video,super,bv1,fv1,thSAD=400)
and my path of the program is

D:\DirectCD\Program Setup Files\RipBot264v1.25.0

so the path is wrong, I have to edit the path in the plugin, right?

missed thet part completely when creating the custom avs files (1 & 2)

Hi slalom,

Here's my simple way of checking what the path on your setup is..

So, open any job in your queue.

Chose the Avisynth "button"

Click on the "Show Video Script" at the top left side of the little preview screen.

Scroll down 'til you see #Denoise (it might be empty)

Then at the "Denoise" options list, chose "MDegrain2", this will instantly show all the info under #Denoise, and there's the plugin path you have to use....

I hope that works for you...
