I would check CPU stability and memory first. Overheating cpu or faulty memory may case those glitches.

Thought I would comment that this program works greatly! Very easy to use and a simple GUI. One function I would suggest is an option in batch mode to auto crop. It is a very painful process when trying to auto crop a number of files manually. That is all =)

OKay here is what I found using 1.18.2 with the firewall off.

XMen Days of future past.
First Pass very slow fps 8-10
Second Pass seemed normal 15 to 20 fps
Encoded file did not save
First Pass again 2320 to 31 fps
Second pass Seemed slow some 2 to 16 fps
Files saved properly

1.18.1
First Pass 20-32 fps
Second Pass 15 to 20 fps
File saved properly

Riddick
Roughly the same numbers as above as well for versions 1.18.2 & 1.18.1
First file did not save either.
Did not try a second attempt with 1.18.2. Went straight to 1.18.1

In summary 1.18.1 is much more efficient and reliable in converting movies...

Since Upgrading to 1.18.2, I'm getting audio encoding timeouts, which I have never gotten before (going back several years):

E:\Temp\RipBot264temp\job44>"D:\RipBot\tools\avs2pipemod\avs2pipemod.exe" -wav "E:\Temp\RipBot264temp\job44\job44_AUDIO1.avs" | "D:\RipBot\Tools\opus-tools\opusenc.exe" --bitrate 240 --ignorelength --quiet - "E:\Temp\RipBot264temp\job44\Encoded_Audio_1.opus"
avs2pipemod[error]: DirectShowSource : Timeout waiting for graph to start.
(E:\Temp\RipBot264temp\job44\job44_AUDIO1.avs, line 6)
Error parsing input file: -

This is what I get when running "jobXX_EncodeAudio1.cmd" manually. However, I can just run it again, and it usually works. I then just run the jobXX_Muxfiles. However, I'm getting maybe a 50% failure rate. Ideas? I can use eac3to and pipe it to opusenc.exe and never get any problems.

System is a i7-4770, 16gb RAM. Temp drive is a RAID-0 pair of disks.

Yeah, I am starting to get errors as well even in 1.18.1 now. I thought my Riddick Blu-ray rip worked but getting error in writing the file as well.

Uuggh. Not sure want to change anymore....

at this point I can only advise you to uninstall avisynth, haali, ffdshow. Reboot and install everything again. Btw use latest avisynth 2.60

Atak, okay, I uninstall avisynth, haali, ffdshow on all computers. I also updated Java on them all. I have the same issue that it does not encode the movie successfully. Here is a pdf file of all the screen captures that I put together when trying to encode a movie Riddick.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...ieEncoding.pdf

I tried it with no success. I use AnyDVD HD to rip the blu ray and then use RipBot264 to encode to an MKV.

So I decided to use MakeMKV to rip the Blu ray. It of course creates a MKV file. When I use that MKV file with RipBot264 it works perfectly and very fast.

So I decided to try another Blu-ray disc, The last of the Mohicans. I ripped with AnyDVD HD and tried to encode. RipBot crashed halfway thru Pass 2. It gave me the following error:




I will be using MAKEMKV again to see if that will work...

There should be a log saying what went wrong. See \Logs\Jobx_log.txt
Regarding encoding speed. What is CPU usage when you see fps drop?

Thanks. I think I know what happens here. Fix is on the way.

This patch should solve that DirectShowSource Timeout error. Also EncodingServer has been updated and hopefully fixed.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/uc...1.18.3_beta.7z

Make sure that every PC has updated EncodingServer.exe. Also re-fresh already created jobs (select job -> Edit -> Done)

Thanks Atak, As far as the CPU usage I am not sure. However, I can tell you that on my PC (192.168.10.11) which is the most powerful of the four, I think the CPU usage is around 3/4 or less. I know this because I have used 3 servers on this PC because I had enough CPU power to do this a few times.

Also BTW the above error shows in all 4 PC's not just the one that is handling the distributed encoding.

Log Files
Encoding Riddick #1 Failed
Ripped via AnyDVD HD
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...9/Job5_log.txt

Encoding Riddick #2 Failed
Ripped via AnyDVD HD a second time
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...9/Job1_log.txt

Encoding Riddick #3 Success
Ripped via MakeMKV
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...9/Job2_log.txt

Encoding Last of the Mohicans #1 Failed
Ripped via AnyDVD HD
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...9/Job3_log.txt

Hope this helps!!

Also show me 1.txt , 2.txt and so on files from \jobx\chunks\ folder. Pack them into one archive.

Atak,
First findings,
  • UAC dialog box on start - normal
  • UAC dialog box second time on start - for server activation
  • UAC dialog box third time when adding a second server
  • Smart Screen Prevention box on one of my Windows 8 machines. Clicking OK does not work. Unable to run Ripbot256.

    I turned off Smart Screen and got it to work. Please try to fix this as this should not have to be turned off

Will get back to you after encoding...

I'm Windows 7 guy so this won't be "fixed". On my OS I do not get those silly popups . Besides How am I supposed to fix this? It is sad that with every new version user is treated like 10 year old kid.

Atak, when trying to encode all of the servers are blinking from "encoding" to "idle" over and over. This is even happening on the local machine... I rest the router and n the same issue. New IP addresses were given to some of the machines, but I re-authorized firewall access which happens on start of Ripbot264.

I turned off the firewall just in case with no joy.

make sure that you can access shared folder from other machines.
for example

\\SERVER-PC\RipBot264temp\job1\Chunks\1.cmd
