Greetings Dan,
First, let me thank you for all your work on Encode360 and EncodeHD, these tools *really* eased my video conversion effort for the XBox 360!
Now my question: any word on the subtitle integration part?
Please keep up the good work, best regards, Pedro Lamas
Hey Pedro,
Hardsubs can’t yet be done using just FFmpeg. I *am* working on integrating Softsubs-support. Unfortunately, the X360 doesn’t support them yet, only the Apple devices :\
Dan
Thanks for the quick reply Dan, I’ve been researching on the subject myself and got the same conclusions: no subtitle support, and worst: no NTFS support (hence the need for the 4GB checkbox you have on EncodeHD
)
Well, I can live without subtitles, but I hope Microsoft will some day allow at least NTFS support on the Xbox 360…
Keep up the good work Dan, best regards, Pedro Lamas
Just wanted to say thank you for putting this out there! Good Job!
Dan,
I’m having a problem utilizing EncodeHD – I get an error saying that it can’t resample 6 audio streams into two – I suspect the issue is that I was trying to output to the AppleTV profile, and while the original one only supported stereo, the newer one allows 5.1. Thus, an updated AppleTV profile or a way to manually override the streams would be nice addition.
thanks,
Ben
Just wanted to say thanks for the hard work! Im very happy with EncodeHD, great job!
Couple minor requests-
Id love it if the queue would remove items as they are completed. Now if I walk away and leave it running, when I come back I see the same list I started with. Using Handbrake, etc., the convention is to take something from the list when it is complete.
When I encode for iPhone from a .mkv file, it always stretches the video to the iPhone resolution. The same video as a .mp4 or .avi source maintains the proper original aspect ratio.
Any quality settings? I find it tends to keep the original quality, which is good, but can mean larger files than other encoders.
Thanks again, great app!
Hi Tom,
I had initially implemented item removal, but I kept getting requests to take it out! People kept forgetting what they had finished encoding and having the list on-screen when the process was finished seemed to help. I’ll look at putting it back in maybe.
Hmm, can you get me a log of this happening?
Quality *can* be modified by changing the FFmpeg settings in the advanced interface. If you want to limit the bitrate, use “-b 1000k” where 1000 is your preferred bitrate. I don’t intend to make this a UI setting, as it tends to confuse matters for non-technical people, and simplicity is what I think sets EncodeHD apart from other encoders.
Cheers, Dan
Ok, how about for the list you place a big green checkmark or something to the side of each item that has been encoded? Then everyone’s happy. I can see what has been converted, and people still have a list of what has been encoded?
I’ve got the log file, here’s one for one of the stretched files:
- Edit by Dan: I’ve taken out the log as it was pretty big
Hey Tom. I sent you an email directly.
