The preset medium is better in my opinion.
Is RipBot264 using this preset by default?

Yes medium preset is used by default. You can verify that in script.

Atak, sorry for ignorance but where is the preset described in this script?

#Denoise
Loadplugin("C:\Programas\RipBot264v1.19.4\Tools\AviSynth plugins\mvtools\mvtools2.dll")
super=MSuper(video,pel=2)
fv1=MAnalyse(super,isb=false,delta=1,overlap=4)
bv1=MAnalyse(super,isb=true,delta=1,overlap=4)
fv2=MAnalyse(super,isb=false,delta=2,overlap=4)
bv2=MAnalyse(super,isb=true,delta=2,overlap=4)
video=MDegrain2(video,super,bv1,fv1,bv2,fv2,thSAD=400)

In settings check 'Use QMTC instead of yadif' and then activate deinterlace.

Hello, my RipBot264 just installed some updates, since then it keeps giving me this error, with every video that I try to import.

ConvertToYV12: invalid "matrix" parameter (RGB data only)
(C:\Temp\RipBot264temp\job1\getinfo.avs, line 2)


How can I fix this?
Thanks!

Edit 1: I tried to re-download RipBot (1.19.4) and I could add videos again.
Then I closed and re-launched it, updates was automatically installed (1.19.5) and it started to gave me that error message again.

Edit 2: I reinstalled all codec packs and everything seems fine now, sorry!

Compelling photos. I'll have to do some more testing. I'll be honest I took it more on faith that the slow was better because of someone I know. I usually test these things more myself.

"Have you ever seen footage encoded as 23.976i,24i,30i and so on"
Don't know if I have but I also don't keep a good memory of that stuff. I was having issues with some videos not giving the option, but I figured a way around it by forcing the settings in batch mode, and if they didn't stick just manually copy pasting the code into the AVIscript. Also, my issue could have been a fluke, IDK.


Update: Ran some of my own tests, and indeed. Medium is performing better than Slow.

@Atak
on a two-monitor setup with extended desktop when I press the cover button the "download poster" window appears half in each screen (in the middle of the extended display)

not a big problem but I thought I should mention it

Hi Atak,
Just got around to updating and using the latest build, and have discovered a strange problem.
When using video preview, instead of the player showing a video, it throws up an error message:-
"The Script's return value was not a video clip, (Is the undefined value)" in red letters.
However, I did a couple without adding a Level Change (eg:-PC-TV), and it previewed a video, BUT if I then added the PC-TV filter, the error message came back.
Any thoughts ???...I'm yet to process said queue, so don't know if error will jeopardize the process.

Update...nothing was processed, just errored the whole queue, have gone back to 1.19.4...

I've been using 1.19.5 and loving it. My guess is you need to reinstall your AVIsynth and/or codec packs.

Just an update,
This still seems to be an issue. It's interesting because more are showing up as --bitrate 98 now. I wonder what made it change to 98 from 99?

Thanks for the info, but it didn't make any difference, and what codec packs are you referring to ???

One thing tho, if I set up a job in 1.19.4, there's not a problem, and if I then start 1.19.5, it previews & encodes that job, without a problem.

I think that would be slow

Slalom, no, because in Windows 10 you have network places since mapping drives is from 1990.

however, I did map a network drive, pointing Ripbot temp folder to it, launching it and finding it could not access the shared drive because it insists on running in the elevated environment, mapping the drive in the elevated environment. adding a job, pressing the go button, and watching it error out...

Just as I expected, the EncodingClient can't share a mapped drive! it errors out immediately after copying the tools there

so what I am asking for is that the temp location can be \\server\share. and then the encoding client can use that as the shared location for all of the files and it can skip trying to share a folder on the machine in that instance...

doing it this way will take all I/O load off of the machine running ripbot, except managing the encodingservers and it's own encoding tasks, and put it on a device made to handle it--the NAS box...
