compatibility problem: besweet doesnot take well intermediate wave from ffmpeg, especially when channels conversion, I assume besweet accepts wav in 32bit float little endian, what ffmpeg?
I encounter deformed audio in many such a cases when ffmpeg is used.
Having done the conversion with dbPoweramp and Audition, both produced Wave file that besweet handled properly.

Hi, I recently stumbled on staxrip, which is hands-down the best gui I've seen yet.

I currently use AutoGK, which is the easiest GUI I've seen yet, though it doesn't support MKV or x264 encoding. However, there are 2 great features of AutoGK that I'd love to see in Staxrip: 1) Ability to add jobs while working on a job; and 2) Select a target file size.

Would it be possible to add these 2 features in a future release?

Another great feature would be to have the option to delete the temp and source files upon successful completion of a job.

Much thanks!

"Select a target file size" is there, take a look at the topright of the UI

Regarding the other options, the author is a lazy ass.

No, honestly, he's currently taking a well deserved time-out from StaxRip.
We may all hope his masterpiece will get an update in a couple of months.

all the three features are already implemented:
1) while a job is started, open another instance of StaxRip, do your tricks and add job, it will be added in the other instances job list and processed after the current is finished
2) when 2-pass encoding profile is selected, there is an option to put target filesize, its really quite obvious, you can't miss it
3) partially implemented, options -> misc -> delete temp files directory
you can "program" staxrip to delete the source file by using tools -> event commands, but this needs some work to achieve it.

Believe me, there is nothing autogk does better than staxrip

Need help!

I want to reencode a file from xvid to x.264 in order to adjust the brightness and contrast of a movie. I have tried to insert a filter under Options=> Filter=> code appended to trim function or code inserted at top of scripts: Levels(D:\Love Crazy.1941.Jack Conway.avi,16,1,235,0,255) or Levels(%,16,1,235,0,255) all trials gave an error :

Script error: syntax error
(D:\Love Crazy.1941.Jack Conway temp files\Love Crazy.1941.Jack Conway.avs, line 4, column 24)

Also a filter to adjust saturation, hue etc. is needed.

Up to now I always have to go via VitrualDubmod to do these corrections and reencode with a high bitrate and then go to Staxrip for x264 encoding. I am sure there must be a better way, but I have not found it.

Levels(%,16,1,235,0,255)

Interesting syntax, but try, for example

Code: [Select]

AVISource("C:\source\16\myvideo.avi")
Levels(16,1,235,0,255)

Code: [Select]

AVISource("C:\source\16\myvideo.avi")
Tweak(bright=-18, cont=1.10)
levels(16,1,235,0,255)

Code: [Select]

AVISource("C:\source\16\myvideo.avi")
Tweak(bright=-18, cont=1.10).levels(16,1,235,0,255)

Lupissimo · « **Reply #96 on:** November 12, 2010, 11:49:40 AM »

Thank you for your answer! I tried your sugestions, but got always :

Script error: Invalid arguments to function "AVISource"
(D:\Love Crazy.1941.Jack Conway temp files\Love Crazy.1941.Jack Conway.avs, line 4)

I used your exact script:

AVISource("C:\source\16\myvideo.avi")
Levels(16,1,235,0,255)

or should myvideo.avi be replaced by my file? ( which did not work either). Could you please give the exact script?!

As these functions for video manipulation ( color, brightness, contrast etc.) are essential even when encoding DVDs,
I wish it would be made available as a standard filter such as cropping, noise, deinterlace.

Based on the information I know about your source, presumably it would be

AVISource("D:\Love Crazy.1941.Jack Conway.avi")
Levels(16,1,235,0,255)

I could write all this, but you should definitely read the documentation for AviSynth (Documentation included in the installation of AviSynth). Information is available and the Internet - http://doom10.org/index.php?topic=18.0

Lupissimo · « **Reply #98 on:** November 13, 2010, 01:22:15 AM »

Thank you! That did the trick!

and thank you for the link!
Still it would help to have brightness,gamma,contrast,hue and saturation as a standard filter, without having to specify the source every time. Although I see the difficulty to establish the correct values interactively without a preview.

Lupissimo · « **Reply #99 on:** November 13, 2010, 03:08:22 AM »

I was too hasty! It just did not show any error, but the script d:\.... Levels(30,1,200,0,255) did not show up in the log file and therefore the corrections were not applied. Could you please tell me ,where exactly I have to put the script.

Hello,

I come from doom9, we talk about Starip to. What is the good forum for StaxRip?

Anyway, I'll post my demand on doom10.

See you later!

Hello,

I'm back with my noise at the end of an ogg file encoded by besweet via StaxRip.
I used to use Staxrip to create video 720p with x264 (for video) and ogg (for audio). Ogg is for me the must power full encoder for audio.

To make you understand, I upload a file, it is not an 720p file, it's a smaller one, you can find it here :

http://uploading.com/files/3655cff2/San%2Btitre.7z/

In this file youcan find:
* Sans titre.mkv => The audio + video encoded file
* Sans titre.wav => The original wav file.
* Sans titre_Output.OGG => The noisy file encoded by Besweet via Staxrip.
* Sans titre.ogg => The encoded file using Oggenc2 via xrecodeII

I read some forum and I found that this noise is a known problem.
As you can ear, the xrecode file (Sans titre.ogg) is noise less.
I just want to know how I can use Oggenc2.exe with StaxRip; if yes how can I do.
Is there a solution with this version of StaxRip?

Thank's a lot.

PS : I edit the original wav file and the besweet encoded file in SoundForge.

As you can see the noise is visible at the end of the file (on the bottom of the image).
What can you tell about this?

Thank's a lot one more time.

When I encode a video with multiple zones and then I try to encode another with a single zone, the xvid codec still uses the multiple zones setting from the first encode.
I have to close StaxRip, delete HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\GNU\XviD key, restart StaxRip and recreate the one zone encoding.

I have been using StaxRip for quite some time to re-encode DVB recordings to MP4 (playable with PS3).

In Finland YLE (national broadcast operator) broadcasts subtitles both in teletext and sub format. I have enabled Tools->Settings->Demuxing->ProjectX and modified its arguments to contain: -ini "%settings_dir%subtitles.ini"

subtitles.ini contains ProjectX settings to export subtitle teletext pages in srt format:
# Project-X INI
# ProjectX 0.90.04.00.b32 / 05.09.2009

# SubtitlePanel
SubtitlePanel.MovePosition.Value=
SubtitlePanel.SubpictureColorModel=YLE
SubtitlePanel.SubtitleExportFormat=SRT
SubtitlePanel.SubtitleExportFormat_2=SUP
SubtitlePanel.TtxPage1=451
SubtitlePanel.TtxPage2=452
SubtitlePanel.exportAsVobSub=1
SubtitlePanel.rebuildPTS=1

When I cut the video, the srt subtitles need to be synced with a separate program. Would it be possible to include such functionality in StaxRip, that srt subtitle timestamps are automatically modified correctly using to the cut list (use framerate and frame numbers in the cut list to modify the timestamps in the srt file)?

I use also VirtualDub DeLogo filter to remove the broadcast operator's logo from the recordings. Here is an example (Edit Filter Profiles and add the lines) how it is used - in case somebody is intrested:

[Remove Logo]
YLE 1 16:9 = LoadVirtualDubPlugin("%application_dir:VirtualDubMod%plugins\delogo.vdf","delogo")%newline%ConvertToRGB32()%newline%delogo(1, "", "%application_dir:VirtualDubMod%plugins\delogo\YLE1_169_DeBlend.bmp", "%application_dir:VirtualDubMod%plugins\delogo\YLE1_169_Alpha.bmp", "%application_dir:VirtualDubMod%plugins\delogo\YLE1_169_Color.bmp", "%application_dir:VirtualDubMod%plugins\delogo\YLE1_169_Repair.bmp", 15, 40, 0, 0)%newline%ConvertToYV12()

Thanks for the excellent program! I hope this new feature can be implemented and included in the future releases.

Hey guys,

I have been using staxrip for quite a long time and it is really a great gui. Everything works as it should for me, but one thing I just cant´t get to work.

How can I determine in a template, which audiotrack will be used as first track and which as a second track?
E.g. a dvd with four audiotracks (all ac3). I want to use track number T82 as the first and T80 as the second track. The used option is "Just Mux".

How can I do this?

Greetings
LordHorst

Anakunda · « **Reply #106 on:** January 24, 2011, 01:44:41 PM »

Is stax still participating on the project?
I've observed ffmpeg often preprocessing audio track invalid format (wrong sampling rate for besweet).
This is the automatic selection.
I suggest using dbpoweramp. It's not free but generates correct wav.
The commandline:

CoreConverter.exe -infile="<infile>.ac3" -outfile="<outfile>.wav" -convert_to="Wave" -compression="PCM" -channels="1" -bits="float"

Compared the output by ffmpeg and found it's pcm_f32le which should be right for besweet but besweet output is deformed.

What gives better results on ripping BD, preprocess with MakeMKV, or process BD folder with StaxRip?
Is Staxrip capable to extract all nonvideo streams as well?

jandor · « **Reply #109 on:** February 09, 2011, 07:10:05 AM »

When doing a conversion from MKV to MP4 using idx/sub does not encode anything. When I do the conversion without the idx/sub works fine.
I would like to insert a idx/sub in a MP4 container! The idx/sub in MKV container works well.
If I am creating an MP4 and leaving the subtitles in the same folder the video is 2 to 3 hours coding and does not generate the MP4 file. Coding in vain.

Excellent software. Congratulations!

Hello

I just saw that StaxRip perhaps bug with detecting audio delay.

I rip a movie with DVDDecrypter and then I run StaxRip (DGIndex)

Example 4 movies:

DVDDecrypter log (3.5.4.0) / Mediainfo / StaxRip
1 : 0ms / 0ms / 0ms -->ok
2 : -176 / -176 / -176 -->ok
3 : -96 / -96 / -16 -->

4 : -80 / -80 / 0 -->

5 : -40 / -40 / 0 -->

i dont see a video delay in mediainfo for this films only audio delay

why staxrip add 80ms for my -96ms audio delay ?

Can i put the time detected by MediaInfo or is there a reason for this addition of 80 ms ?

Or it is a bug ?

i try 1.1.7.0beta version and 1.1.6.0 and it is the same thing

Thanks for staxrip

i can join the log after if needed

bye all

Batchman · « **Reply #111 on:** February 15, 2011, 03:09:37 PM »

theres no way u can force staxrip to convert 6.1 to 2.0 mp3, u can set decoders/encoders/demuxer all u want, but all fails on ea3to demanding installed nero or ffmpeg not supporting downmuxing, btw even if u force ffmpeg as decoder it still uses ea3to

ps: is staxrip dead?

when indexing vobs, stax demuxes audio. if you have multiple audios you can simply select them to just mux or encoding. if multiple one you just pic the ones u wnat, and choose wich order you want them on the usual place, change everything to just mux and you get a dual audio rip.

T82 should be 1st and T80 on the second one.
this should work.

kudos

Hy All!

I'm using Win 7 Ultimate x64, latest avisynth64 and StaxRip. My problem is the following:

I wanted to use x264 x64 edition and replaced the appropriate x264.exe with the x64 version in StaxRip's Applications folder. I was not able to use it due to 'error -1', so I had to figure out it was because of the 32-bit Avisynth 2.5.8 installed. After installing the latest avisynth64, I get this error: 'AVIFileOpen failed'.

At first I thought - by reading the .log file - it's because Avisynth is not able to load itself and its x64 plugins from the new place (Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins64\) during StaxRip (I am able to use all of the filters I need for other processes in VirtualDub x64).

Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance,

also still xvid not updated to the latest!
the vsfilter is not updated either I guess

I think I'm going back to 1.1.7.0 for now at least i can use DGindex there

Hi, stax76:

- First: I apologize for my bad English (I'm helping with a translator)
- Secondly: I think, to the work done to develop a free software, gratitude must be unconditional.

I shall report my problem:

OS: Windows 7 Professional
Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce 7025/NForce 630a integrated motherboard

- When I enter a video file and try to go to the next step, the program opens a window asking me a source filter, "DGDecodeNV", without which I can not do anything.

- When going to the website recommended, I see it costs $15. Is this a problem? Maybe, depends on the economy of each.

- Then go to Nvidia website, and see that my graphics card does not support video decoding CUDA.

So why did I ask for the program?

Help me, please.

Sincerely,

Fortuito.
