That could be a great addition/change, if you have several encodes queued up, and they're 4K for example, the last junk or 2 take "forever" to complete...then it has to do it's thing before starting the next one...many hours could be saved, if this could be implemented.

There could be up to 15 servers, not doing anything....such a waste

And I'm glad that someone else is having this problem, too. This happens way too often, and like byteshare said, if you're not "watching/checking" it every so often, it can be stalled for hours...I used to queue many job to do overnight, but not anymore, there's nothing more frustrating to check it the next day, only to find that it stalled not long after you went to bed

Coincidently, I have had the first post on the last 3 pages....

OK, so I apologize in advance if this has been asked many times before, BUT...

Is there an option to convert TrueHD to DTS-xx ??

I thought that Ripbot was able to convert it, at some stage...maybe I'm wrong, but I have had several movies lately with TrueHD audio, and they don't play on my TV, or Bluray player (unless somethings happened to them)

If I attempt an import of a TrueHD audio movie into tsmuxer, it discards it....

Any thoughts or suggestions ???

Cheers

If this happens so often so why don't you post some screenshots like I asked you in private message more than a week ago? (Task manager + Encoding Server window).

It doesn't happen the same way, every time, but I have had a quick look in Task Manager, and I couldn't tell if there was a problem with anything, as you mentioned.

And TBH, I just want to get past the stall, and continue, ASAP....but having said that, I don't run Ripbot overnight, anymore, this being part of the reason.

You asked me to check x264 / x265, and ffmpeg, if I recall, and there are multiples of each, and I really don't know what I'm looking for, anyway...sorry.

There's 2 different "stall's" that I can tell, one is part way thru an encode, and another where it is "Starting" but doesn't.

It hasn't happened for me very often, but maybe 1-2 times a week with 3 different computers (all running 2-4 local servers).
I'll try to document it better myself. Since it doesn't happen that often checking the computers several times a day has just become part of my routine.

Green preview and encode

I just upgraded to the latest version (1.23) from 1.19.x. Running windows 10 — I’m having the same problem that others have said on the board where when I load a mpeg2 source — both the preview and encode are just green screen. I don’t get this issue if loading a MP4 source.

In searching the board I could not find if this has been fixed. I presume a dependency needs to be upgraded. Short of a removal of all of the dependencies and reinstall — has someone figured out the culprit and a fix? I could ultimately go back to 1.19.x but if someone has already resolved — I would prefer to keep up to date with everything else that comes with the updates.

Thanks in advance.

Windows 10 is a problem here.

I just need to give you and updated explanation....

I had 2 chunks/servers stall just now, so I went into Task Manager, and there must be something wrong, as it doesn't show any details, and there are missing "tab's" to access the different screens, so I can't provide a purposeful screenshot, atm (Windows 7)

But I will !!!

Also, would you be so kind as to comment on my post #15802, about TrueHD.

Thanks

V1.23.0

Hype! for V1.23.0.
Not sure what all of the changes were just that the x265, mkvtoolnix, ffmpeg, and core were all updated

I saw some changes today with the date of today, so something changed, or did I really wait that long to restart my PC? Possible, lol.

process priority

hello, would be possible to add an option somewhere into settings to start enkoding on set priority? (please)

now enkoding (ffmpeg.exe & x265-64.exe) starts at lowest/idle priority which drops my fps rate on 0,50 and below like 0,29.

if I manually re-set priority in task manager on normal then fps stays in reasonable values

please note that diference between low and normal priority causes me to encode my stuff a whole day longer if I forgot imidiately to higher priority

or if such option wont be considered then atleast please tell me what line should I add to .cmd files so they could run at normal priority right after the start. thanks for reading this

no idea why would I need that, I dont have any problems with cooling of my cpu nor pc lagging while encoding. at times when I encode stuff cpu is always at 100% peek.

my issue is about drastic fps drop due to low priority level of encoding processes.

I'm having a very weird problem.
All my conversions are failing randomly.
They can be enconding up to 60% and fail or or 2% and fail.
I've tried with and without OpenCL enabled. (RX 580 with 18.4.1 drivers)
Here is a log of one that failed after 3 mins of enconding.

I also, re-downloaded the Ripbot so I tried a clean install and it still fails.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance!
