Can you tell me what kind of subtitle your source files are using, what language they are, and what languages you have selected?

The subtitles are .srt files, the language is English and I have all languages selected.

For those who are having subtitle issues with NVENCCRE when using "Keep Original Video (intact)", please try this version. You can replace the one included in the BD-RB folder. Give it some tests and let me know if it works ok for you now.

Please note that there are three options under the SUBTITLES menu item (1. "Keep Internal Subtitles", 2. "Convert BD/DVD Subtitles to SRT", and 3. "Add external subtitle"). Here is how they affect each other:

If 1 is selected, internal subtitles will be kept.
If 2 is selected, any graphical subtitles (PGS/VOBSUB) will be converted to SRT
If 3 is selected, any SRT with the same name/folder as a source will be included.

If you only want to keep an SRT and not the original graphical subtitles, deselect 1. Be careful, though, as any and all internal subtitles will be ignored (other than what is converted to SRT, assuming it is selected).

No luck with keeping the internal subtitles. The job ends in two seconds. No output file is being written in the Working/Output path. Only the log and the lastcmd are there.

Hello,

I want to ask if there are any plans to implement QSVEncC for encoding.
I tested with the Intel Arc A750 and had some promising results.

IMHO, slim to none chance. Why? Because it would require the purchase of another computer system with the Intel graphics card. Pretty much everyone here uses the nVideo graphics card. Plus the number of people that would use said Intel card is extremely small. No ROI.

Hello,

Thanks for your perspective. I appreciate the thought behind your analysis but I think there's a misunderstanding here.

While I understand your point about needing a new system with an Intel graphics card, I'd like to clarify that the QSVEncC support extends beyond the specific Intel Arc A750 card. It is indeed applicable to various Intel integrated GPUs (iGPUs) that come inbuilt in many standard PCs, especially those with Intel CPUs.

These Intel iGPUs are ubiquitous and certainly not limited to a small number of people as you suggest. Implementing QSVEncC, therefore, does not necessarily mean a need for users to purchase a new computer system. Rather, it could potentially unlock additional encoding efficiency for a substantial number of existing Intel CPU users.

As for the nVideo graphics card you've mentioned, it's notable to mention that not everyone is limited to this single choice, and having additional encoding options can only strengthen the tool's capabilities, increasing its appeal to a wider user base. The ROI might not be immediately obvious, but it's important to consider long-term usability and broad accessibility as well.

I hope this provides some clarity and prompts reconsideration of the idea. Thank you again for your input and discussion.

MrVideo · 16th July 2023, 22:42

I'm sure there are plenty of Intel CPU users with nVidea cards. If an Intel CPU user doesn't have an Intel GPU, he supports software only encoding (H2.64 and H.265), which takes many hours longer than nVideo hardware support. For jdobbs to support software that supports the Intel GPU, it would mean another computer system containing said GPU. If I were charging for the software, then there might be incentive to support other encoders/hardware. But, jdobbs does not. So, where is the incentive to do so? His focus is on nVideo GPU decoding/encoding. Obviously I cannot speak for jdobbs. This is my take.

Have you tried running that command line from a COMMAND window to see what error you get? It looks ok to me. Can you tell me how many subtitles there are in the original file? It looks like it is attempting to copy the second one. If it only has one... that may be the issue.

Sorry. I won't say definitely "no", but not likely.

There is one subtitle in the file. But on a source file with seven subtitles I get the same result. The job finishes also in 2 seconds without writing the result file.

The error from the command line is this:

Stream map '0:s:1' matches no streams.
To ignore this, add a trailing '?' to the map.

But... could it be the '0:s:1' needs to be '0:s:0' ?

Yes. That's why I asked. If there is only one subtitle it definitely needs to be "-map 0:s:0". I'll check it out and fix it. I wouldn't guess it would be too hard to find that issue.

Thanks for all the help with my past efforts for the 'GUILTY CONSCIENCE' movie, it turned out better than I had expected.

Now... I have a REAL challenge if anyone has any 'easily implemented' suggestions

I have really old AVI files of the 1987 series 'Werewolf' There are no official sources with the exception of the recent French release which uses very similar SD sources since the original negatives are not available. I am also checking with some online sources where they offer DVD sets. The one at Rarefilmsondvd is promising because they offer an 8 DVD set, which would hopefully suggest fairly high quality, perhaps 1st generation recordings. Other sites offer 3 and 4 DVD sets. So, I'm waiting to hear back from them.

In the meantime though, I do have all the episodes in an ancient AVI format. I mean, considering, they aren't super horrible. But I was wanting to ask if there might be some suggestions as to some 'SIMPLE' scripts I might try to improve it. I don't really have to upscale it, I can leave it in it's original resolution and just let the player enlarge it.

Here is a 5 minute snippet of the first 5 minutes of the Pilot. If anyone has any SIMPLE suggestions (in other words AVI script that I can actually get to run

) in order to help me to improve the video 'quality', I would be most thankful!

Cheers!

Jaime.

Actually, forget that

I just downloaded the pilot and episodes from YouTube and I think that gives me a LOT more to work with, at least starting with it really scrubbed clean. I'll see if I can insert a snippet from that here. It's not bad...

MrVideo · 19th July 2023, 10:42

Don't bother uploading a snippet. Anyone here can download it from YouTube, which I did. Actually it isn't bad, not bad at all. Except for one major thing: it is 25fps. Originally it was 480i29.97. Don't attempt to restore it to 23.976. The interlacing is gone and frames were melded together to get to 25fps. Just watch it as is.

I guess that's what happens when you start something and then not go back to it for a while.

Thanks for looking into it and I'm old enough to not even remember how many projects I started on and got distracted in the middle of.

Gave the latest version a try at just converting the subtitles from PGS to SRT intact audio and video. Source is a mkv with 2 PGS subtitles over to a mp4 hopefully with just the subtitles converted. Still end up with a combined subtitle double chapter menu entry at the end. mediainfo's attached of the original and the resultant mp4. Another odd behavior is if the container isn't changed and left at mkv to mkv the PGS subtitles just get removed but the menu comes over cleanly along with the video and audio ?

I'll be honest -- I have no idea how the issue you are experiencing could even happen. I was unable to repeat it in my testing. Looking at your log, it looks like the jobs are completing in an extremely short period of time.

I've sent a PM to you. But
could you post the contents of NVLASTCMD.TXT right after the job has completed?

Also, are you simply letting NVENCCRE run, or are you adding any steps or doing anything externally to the files?

The one at Rarefilmsondvd is promising because they offer an 8 DVD set, which would hopefully suggest fairly high quality, perhaps 1st generation recordings. Other sites offer 3 and 4 DVD sets. So, I'm waiting to hear back from them. In the meantime though, I do have all the episodes in an ancient AVI format. I mean, considering, they aren't super horrible. But I was wanting to ask if there might be some suggestions as to some 'SIMPLE' scripts I might try to improve it. I don't really have to upscale it, I can leave it in it's original resolution and just let the player enlarge it. Here is a 5 minute snippet of the first 5 minutes of the Pilot. If anyone has any SIMPLE suggestions (in other words AVI script that I can actually get to run ) in order to help me to improve the video 'quality', I would be most thankful! http://lathe-of-heaven.com/Werewolf.mkv Cheers!
