The only app I have that uses Quick Sync is CloneBD. Using a gen 9 i7 I have seen 1080p encodes in the 300+ range. It is variable but generally averages in the 200+. I pretty much use it to convert BD to mp4. I set it to create 4gb files at 720p. Takes about 15 min.

If you want to give me command lines for both QuickSync and Nvidia that I could run against the same MKV, I can can share the outcome.

I have EVGA GeForce RTX 3060 XC GAMING 12GB, 12G-P5-3657-KR, and i7-14700k (UHD770), and i9-10900k(uhd630) that I can run it against.

As I tried it last time (I have to reconfigure in BIOS to unhide iGPU, so not doing that everyday) QuickSync was still miles faster than
x265 (the latter yielding 0,7fps for a prime 4K UHD-BD on this i9-11900K) vs. nVidia 3080 running like 26..28fps for a comparable good UHD-BD NVEnc profile. Will have to run a comparison again, given the latest developments.

Very interesting topic. I would love to find out the outcome

I can't figure something out.
I'm trying to rebuild a disc with bonus features from a couple different sources. I took a screenshot from one of the source BDs and edited it a bit.
I set the config file with "MENU_BACKGROUND=C:\Users\DoctorM\Desktop\QM Bonus Features\QMMenu.png" but the background is a starry sky.
I tried converting it to a JPG and the same thing.
Is there something I'm missing?

Yup. That seems to have done it.

That would match the observations made here:
https://technical.city/en/video/UHD-...70-vs-Arc-A770
The clock speeds of the build-in gpu are way lower than in the dedicated ones.
Nevertheless a good performance for something you basically get for free with your processor.

I just noticed, isn't the i5 13420H a mobile processor? Will its GPU be as strong as a desktop 13th gen's UHD7xx gpu?.

Yes, it was on a notebook that I borrowed. Not sure what impact that would have on GPU encode speeds.

BD Rebuilder has started to fail during audio conversion. It has started adding "_eng" to the end of the extracted audio file name, before the file extension. I've found that if I rename the file deleting "_eng" and rerun the program, it successfully converts the audio. Do you know what could be causing this?
For AC3 files, it also generates an empty file without the "_eng".

Not sure if this is a bug or not or just a limitation?

UHD 4K title through BDRB, set UHDMaxrate=36000 (I'll do this as I am putting it on BD50 media so the bitrate needs to come down) - Done it plenty of times w\no issue.

As expected it encoded the main movie only down, well this current title I have has 25!! TV spots & trailers, BDRB obviously did not encode those (even with 'Quicker Encode' set to on it never picked them up) so it never brought the bitrate down on any of them (spikes of 90+Mbps on some of them).

Thought I'd be smart; I pulled out the main movie M2TS that left only the extras (4.55gb worth), figured BDRB could encode these down if I turn on the 'Quicker Encode for extras' on and set the CRF=30 in the INI and set the size limit to 3gb. Set this way BDRB did pick up all the extras however they ended up with a Dolby Digital only file (They are all TrueHD audio) even though I didn't change the setup (HD audio intact etc). I suppose BDRB saw the Quick Encode and CRF=3- and size of 3gb and figured the only way to do that was to strip out the TrueHD audio track?

Even if this would have worked I still would have had to get all those M2TS files back into the main structure and may have had to edit with BDEdit every one of those 25 clips & playlists.

So I guess I'm asking if there is an easier way, is there a HiddenOpt to ensure the entire structure (Main movie & extras) are all encoded down?

EDIT TO ADD: Everything does show up to encode if I set the target to BD-9 but that doesn't help much as of course I want a BD-50 taget size)

I'm not 100% sure about the following, but give it a try.
Go to Settings - Import/Quickplay
What's the threshold for Minimum BD Playlist minutes?
If that is set to low (default is 10 minutes I think) BDRB doesn't pick up trailers and such and leaves those intact.

Set the following in your ini file: MIN_M2TS_SIZE=0

Why not set: Target size BD=50

Thanks everyone, results...

cartman0208: I actually never saw those options, but I'm doing a 'Full Backup' not the Quickplay so I don't think any of that'll work?

MrVideo: Target size is not a problem, and the size of the files are not a problem. I'm trying to lower the bit-rate of each of the M2TS files not just the main movie (by setting the 'UHDMaxrate' option). Bringing the size down of the original UHD to fit on a BD-50 is fine but you also need to lower the bit-rate as well (BDR media has an upper threshold to bit-rate limit). I am attempting to get all of the high bit-rate trailers to show up in the 'stream' window to ensure BDRB is encoding those as well as the main movie (using UHDMaxrate limit I set)

musiclover: Well setting the MIN_M2TS_SIZE=0 did in fact do 'something' but odd result. Now the main movie (as usual) shows up in the window but as well as 3 other M2TS; 2.8mb (one of the smallest files on the disc and is just the 'Not in HDR' message), 53mb (the disc intro) & 20mb (an end of disc message). So it seems to have done the opposite, those M2TS files are some of the smallest M2TS files (and thus are not even trailers) it didn't recognize any of the 20+ trailers that range in size from 48mb to 450mb. Setting MIN_M2TS_SIZE=1 (or any number above '0') just picks up the main movie only again.

Odd that it picked up the 53mb M2TS that is an intro but none of the teaser trailers that were even smaller (from 40mb to 50mb) so wonder why it skipped those? Some of them are about 9 seconds in length could that be the issue? Although it also didn't pick up any of the longer 2 minute trailers either. So for some reason it's not picking any of those up and decided (randomly?) on those three M2TS files?

Just a longshot. Try it with REENCODE_MENUS=1 in your ini file.

And setting Target size BD=50 may also have some effect. BDRB should know then to lower the bitrate of all videos.

Exactly, which is why I suggested it. The only way to reduce the size of the video file is to lower the bitrate.

So sorry MrVideo, that seems to be my fault there. I was wondering why you mentioned that then I re-read my original post and I didn't mention that I had already reduced the size set as well.

The original un-touched is 82gb (movie=81gb & 1gb in extras). My first try I did set the Target=50 as normal (along with my UHDMaxrate set) but the result dropped it all the way down to 39gb (though at this point I didn't compare any of the extras to see if they were shrunk down compared to the originals)

I then set a custom size to 46500 and that gave me a total size of 44gb, at this point I noticed the extras were not touched at all.

So I'll try another re-encode with the normal 'Target=50' set instead of a custom size and I'll set the 'REENCODE_MENUS=1' as well and see what I get with that.
