Re: 1.5.1 runs fine. 1.6 doesn't start

Also, make sure all GPU drivers are fully up to date and re-install .NET Desktop Runtime 6 (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/thank-you/runtime-desktop-6.0.12-windows-x64-installer) as that's also commonly an issue ... and it was the issue here, as well. Updated dotnet and 1.6 acte...

Description of problem or question: in 2017, I posted a question about using my GPU for encoding as opposed to my CPU. I was told.. by Ritsuka » Wed Mar 22, 2017 12:09 pm Nope, GPUs are horrible at video encoding. So, I upgraded my CPU and stuck to x264. Eventually I upgraded from Maxwell to Pascal...

Re: Why Handbrake?

avidemux works great if you're just trying to change the wrapper.

Re: I don't want to use my CPU

The size of the company is irrelevant. Think of it more along these lines: Is there developer interest? -> For Nvidia NVEnc , No. Most of us don't have Nvidia hardware. Even if we did, our typical use cases prefer slower but higher quality encodes which the hardware encoders are not as suited to. I...

Re: I don't want to use my CPU

I've been monitoring the Vegas Pro forum for15 years and I have never heard a claim such as that. Double-digit gains have been known to happen, .... when paired with a slow CPU. Perhaps you haven't run across my configuration before. When you have three (yes, three) GTX970 cards running in SLI (EVG...

Re: I don't want to use my CPU

hmm. nVidia has been around for over 23 years and is arguably the fastest video card on the planet from a company generating almost 7 billion dollars in revenue last year and is completely unsupported as an encoding platform? If I'm ever able to save up the money to move off of the LGA1366 platform ...

Re: Copy whole DVD (rip) to hard-disk, without any encoding, just plain rip

Once the DVD is ripped with MAKEMKV, encode it with HandbrakeCLI as an mp4. You can add this code to the end of the previous Makemkv batch file @echo off set mname=d set folder=d set rawname=d set quotes=0 cls if [%7]==[] set folder=%1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 if [%6]==[] set folder=%1 %2 %3 %4 %5 if [%5]==[]...

Re: I don't want to use my CPU

Odd that you should say that. Sony Vegas 14 encodes my videos using Cuda roughly 600% faster than my CPU

My entire library is .MKV because it works so well with Kodi. 1200+ movies and not one issue.

Re: Copy whole DVD (rip) to hard-disk, without any encoding, just plain rip

Windows itself can run programs when disks are inserted into drives, instead of depending on anydvd. you want to run the command line version of makemkv as a batch file to rip the dvd/blue ray on insert. I have multiple blue ray drives on one machine so I had to include some code that you may not ne...

I don't want to use my CPU

Please detail your question or problem in as much detail as possible: HandbrakeCLI notes my GPU but uses my CPU to encode. I believe my GPU would be much faster but it appears to be unsupported? Am I missing a driver or something? Tell us about your environment. What version of HandBrake? What oper...

Re: non techie has no idea what she's doing right.

Your source was not well compressed. I think this is the "answer" I was looking for. Digging into your suggestion, MakeMKV doesn't compress at all . It's just a raw dump from the media to .MKV so the file sizes are huge. Handbrake is now a key part of my ripping process. This saves me fro...

non techie has no idea what she's doing right.

Please detail your question or problem in as much detail as possible: So, I just specify an input 1080p .MKV file, change the output container to .MKV, and specify the output file name and hit start. I make no other changes. The process runs and completes just fine. The only visual difference I can...
