(Old) MediaShrink - An HTPC focused encoder

[evilpenguin]

Nope, mediaShrink won't handle that, but that's not a bad idea for a future improvement. I'll let you know if I figure out a simple CLI that you can use to convert that.

Ben from Eng HD helped me modify one for DVRMS toolbox and it works, but I'm not a big user of that program, so every so often I do something that ends up erasing the input file and giving me nothing in the end (usually end user error that causes that).

I know you have tons on your plate, but just something to keep in the back of your mind.

I forget the name of it off the top of my head (it's on my PC at home, will have to check later), but I have a program that does just this with two clicks. Not sure if it's command-line driven too, but it could be added to the MediaShrink toolkit. Detect DTS --> Encode new AC-3 track --> add it to the MKV container.

The end file would be a tad bigger (new audio track) but it would keep both DTS and AC3.

I have the same issue, no DTS receiver... :-/

I'll find that program when I get home and see what I can get it to do w/ the command line.

EDIT: Found it... eac3to is what I use to conver the DTS to AC3. I think I can remux it back into the MKV from here too... need to do more research.

[ohpleaseno]

yeah, dvrms toolbox leverages eac3to in the process that Ben helped me with. I'll look into it.

I'll get you the SJQ stuff you're asking for as soon as I can figure out why SJQ thinks I changed my password.

Entirely off-topic, (well, not really, but anyway), if one were to build a computer and want the main focus to be on encoding video (i.e. Handbrake optimization), would a lower speed Quad Core or a higher speed Dual Core processor be better if all other things are equal?

personally id vote lower speed quad core... because video encoding is one of the FEW tasks that actually utilize multiple cores to offload tasks too... (no i don't have any hard data but thats my experience...)

+1

If you check out Handbrake's benchmark forum you'll see lots of good data supporting that. Also, not related to performance, but you'll have a much easier time managing the CPU temp on a slower quad than a faster dual.

[ohpleaseno]

Hmmm... This may get interesting. I have a bunch of mismatched parts laying around and I may go out and get a cheap quad core Athlon. I'm thinking about an SSD to go with it. I searched the HB forums for benchmarks including those, but couldn't find any. Theoretically it would help encoding times too, right?

Nope SSD won't help much, encoding is all CPU (also memory, but to a much less noticable extent).

[razrsharpe]

the ssd will just help will overall responsiveness and load times of the OS and its programs. Like ep said encoding is not limited by the disk at all so an ssd isnt worth it for an encoding machine.

[ohpleaseno]

heat and noise would probably be the biggest considerations for the SSD

Thanks man!

Say I have an .mkv encoded with dts audio. In my living room, I have Sage hooked up to my DTS capable receiver and it is no problem.

I just bought an LCD and another HD-200 for my bedroom. I obviously can't play the dts track on the TV, so I was wondering if mediashrink had the possibility down the road to be able to take the .mkv, look and see if the only audio is dts, take out the dts, encode to ac3, add the ac3 to the original mkv preserving both the original dts and adding the new ac3.
.

Hi, I almost finished writing such a tool SAGEAudioConvert...

Syntax: SAGEAudioConvert [options] source

Options:
-inplace replace the original video when complete.
-outputdir directory to place final video if not using inplace option.
-workdir temporary working directory. Default is OS temp directory.
-language convert this language (ISO639-1). Default to every languages.
-stereo downmix multi channel audio to stereo (Dolby Pro Logic II).
-kbps kbps for AC3 encoding. "192", "448" or "640".
-priority process priority. "low" or "normal".
-recursive process every mkv file recursively from source directory.
-listISO639 display a list of valid language code.
-debug create a verbose debug log beside the executable.

Defaults:
-inplace -kbps=640 -priority=normal -language=all -recursive

Examples:
SAGEAudioConvert z:\movies
SAGEAudioConvert -inplace -kbps=640 movie.mkv
SAGEAudioConvert -inplace -priority=normal z:\movies

The link will be available in 1 or 2 days :-)

EP,

When you use comskip to determine the cropping how far into the file do you go. Do you go to the first commercial... or just a few minutes in. I am asking this because last nights Criminal Minds had a dark scene at the beginning that was more dark on the left side.... So mediashrink cropped too much so I got the right side of the show centered with black bars on each side.

Is there any way that I can set it to go further into the show before determining cropping? I really don't care if I have to comskip the whole show I prefer getting the cropping correct.

[aaronb]

I can't prevent mediashrink from cropping my files, and it is cropping way too much, I end up with roughly the top left quarter of the video. I tried using /noAutoCrop, specifying the resolution with /xRes and /yRes, but to no avail.

My command line is:

"C:\mediashrink\mediaShrink.exe D:\SageTV\Seinfeld-ThePie-1845976-0.ts /batch /InPlace /x264 /onePass /noAutoCrop /highProfile /cliBitrate 2500 /ac3 /mkv"

Did anyone get back the Handbrake % completed display mentioned a few pages back. I'm just getting to the new version (which I quite like btw), but it would be nice to see the estimated time of completion that was in the older version. I see the workfolder and the network stream (encoding over the network) so I know it's working.

Thanks. Props to EP and the rest of you for making something that really takes much of the headache out of Handbrake.

Added: btw, is there any way to use the CQ handbrake settings. They seem to be recommended throughout their forums.

[ohpleaseno]

I'm back to the no audio video problem I had before. I'm calling mediaengine directly now and I'm getting this.

EP,
I have seen the same issue of "unable to find Video" too. I have tried all quick updates you have mentioned before and still the same result. I am a Newbie so user error may be a factor on my side. I am see this on my one an only HTPC, no clients or extenders here. I am trying to encode DVD files that I ripped using DVDFab. I ripped them 1 to 1 to my hard drive. Please Help when you get a chance.

EP and Others,

Oops! I did not drop the entire folder on to the "mediashrink.exe" as explained in the "A Digital Home Blog: Media Shrink" states. I was dropping only the Video_TS folder. I now have a command line file running...
Newbie on board...
