I'm guessing that question was for me, and the answer is nope, I'm using TFF -> 29.97 & Restore -> 23.976 fps.

I am running 1.17.1.

This error keeps popping up when adding a video file.

Oh boy, now I'm jealous. I'm averaging between 12-14 hour encode times on my old clunker on 2 hour BD movies. Even when I get DE running on 3 machines the FPS is in the 4-5 range and it's still taking me 8-10 hours. I better start saving my $$$ for one of those i7 quad cores.

One suggestion
Shouldn't the last chunk in each pass be smaller, at most 5000 frames, so that other servers are not idle for a lot of time?

And, I got an error which appeared when I logged on the "server" (main machine) using Remote Desktop Connection. At first I thought it was a coincidence, can someone else verify this? (or not?)

[flebber]

Clearly th error Iam getting is because a ':' is inserted into the directory name between video name and temp.

Any reason why or how to clear it?

don't say that you see difference between 1 and 2 . i barelly see difference between 2 and 4

I mostly see a difference in the encoding size. A difference of 1-2 could be 500-1000MB difference in a 16x9 1080p movie. With a really grainy movie, it could be about 14GB in size with a CRF of 20 (Fargo comes to mind). With denoising around 4.5, I was able to get it to 8GB. Not a bad space savings and I find the picture quality looks much nicer then with all the grain.

Any reason why ...

show us your ripbot264.ini

I'm using TFF -> 29.97 & Restore -> 23.976 fps.

if source is telecined (mix of interlaced and progressive frames) then you should use inverse telecine function.

Ripbot.ini

[settings]

[Atak_Snajpera]

is this a joke? Download again with proper .ini

lamentably no joke.

Hi ! Latest version getting this error after program is done gathering information about the file

Exception EConvertError in module Ripbot264.exe at 000093E2.

Replaced the files now im getting same error with message ending in 0000949A

I love this program and i have never had any issues with it. I had to learn a bit about interlaced and progressive stuff but since then, every conversion turned out great. I still would like to ask the author a question if i may. Atak - no pressure - but do you have second audio track on your to do list?

[MD74]

I thought i would share my experience with using DE. First of i like to thank Atak for enabling distributed encoding. My setup consists of 5 machines, the first one is a dual CPU Xeon x5650 @ 2.67Ghz (12cores). This box serves as the host for the main ripbot control box. it has all the files stored on it and is where i create the jobs. the 4 other boxes i have vary a bit. each box comes with dual CPU Xeon L5520 @ 2.27ghz (8cores/16HT). 3 of the boxes have 24gb ram and the other has 16gb. all are running 10k scsi drives for storage and OS is 2008r2. The result is 4 encoders able to process bluray at 70-80fps. This is faster than realtime of the movie and generally i can finish a movie in about 90 minutes in 2-pass config using 10bit profile.

The interesting part is the encoder has very similar fps when doing 2-pass encoding. I dont seem to be able to break the 80fps on pass one for bluray content. My guess is that i could be running into a bottleneck on the headend server since it has to communicate all that traffic (130mbit) between all 4 encoders. I know that people have been asking for more encoders added and Atak mentioned 8. This would basically be what i'm running now if you were to use desktop quad cores. i think anything beyond that would be pointless as the overhead required to make them work would defeat the purpose. However, i suppose if you have a bunch of dual cores it might make more sense to have more than 8 but i could also argue you need to get better machines too.

Hope this sheds some light on what it would be like to have 8 quad core desktops as a configuration.

Again, great work Atak, thanks for all the hard work and dedication to bring such a great application to us.

[Atak_Snajpera]

do you really have to use 2-pass mode? constant quality will be faster (1-pass).

if you have 1gbps lan then bottleneck won't occur. 100mbps is indeed to slow for your very fast pcs.

let's assume that single pc can encode at real time (24fps). bd movie bitrate is often around 30mbps.

30mbps * 4 pc = 120mbps

ups bottleneck ...

It's not a coincidence, the error appeared again yesterday. It appears only when D.E. is used.

[Atak_Snajpera]

i don't use Remote desktop
Also 'error' means nothing to me. I'm not a fortune teller...

Hey so did u find any solution working on that For any other uncompressed format
