Possible to downgrade to DVDFab 9.2.2.8?

[rozemab]

I installed 9231 (as a separate install, in its own folder) and unchecked lightning shrink.

Did not make a difference.


Started 9.2.2.8, Using the same blu ray (Inception), it is now backing it up at 102 fps and climbing.

Hi rozemab
If you want you can have more than 1 version of DVD Fab installed on your computer in case one version gives you problems or for testing.
It may sound complicated but it's really easy to do this: Download latest version of DVDFab and save it, browse to the saved file right click (run as administrator). During install when the screen comes up for destination folder C:\Program Files\DVDFab 9xxx I change the blue from DVD Fab 9xxx and add 231 to the xxx or whatever version you are installing after the 9 next, start menu folder check box do not create start menu folder next, uncheck boxes create desktop icon and quick launch icon next.
After install restart computer, browse to C:\Program Files\DVDFab 9xxx double click the folder, right click the DVDFab application file send to desktop, right click the new DVD Fab icon rename to the version you just installed hit enter, DONE

Try turning off Lightning Shrink.

signals - are you asking me to remove 9228 and install 9231, then uncheck the Lightning Shrink flag?

I removed 9231 and installed 9.2.2.8. (kudos for the help Signals and CR929!)

Glad to help

[rozemab]

Try turning off Lightning Shrink.

9228 is blasting now with lightning turned on. So you must mean under 9231 ?

Try turning off Lightning Shrink.

I feel there is something broken with 9.2.3.1.

I attempted to back up HP part 1 with 9.2.3.1 and the best fps was 34.

I removed 9231 and installed 9.2.2.8. (kudos for the help Signals and CR929!)

Now it is running 172 fps, and climbing.

Nothing changed on my system except uninstalling 9231 and installing 9228.

Used the same blu ray disk, same blu ray drive etc. I even have handbrake running a queue of jobs in the background.

90312 is right. Version 9.2.3.1 works okay for some titles, but hits the wall on others! Version 9228 is the speed king, close to 250 fps backing up using h.265 HQ, mp4 container!


Hopefully the dvdfab team is reading this and can look into why 9231 is doing what it is doing......

If it works like it did for me it will take a header on certain titles. I checked a title that was slow on 9.2.3.1, 80 or less fps, on 9.2.2.8 and it was up around 300fps. Good luck!

[rozemab]

this is what it should do:

[rozemab]

I just backed up a HP film, and it is back up to the expected fps. I changed absolutely nothing in the past 30 minutes of testing.

It looks like the speed (settings = h.265 mp4, HQ) is somehow tied to the disk you're backing up....

so I'm at 9.2.3.1 and driver 361.43.

I'll try a few more disks and see if the fps stays high, or takes a header!

[90312]

Doubtful I did a clean install of 9.2.2.8 and no doubt about it faster. Titles that were down to 80fps or less are back up to about 300fps on H.265.

Watch you PM inbox, I am sending you a link to download v9.2.2.8. Get it ASAP, it self-destructs in 29 minutes. As Octo262 pointed out, this version is not officially supported any longer.

[rozemab]

here's the driver information from my downgrade

[rozemab]

Downgraded to 361.43, no change

The best fps is 35 for either h.265 or h.264 mp4 container, HQ.

I would like to return to 9228 and try it again.

Is there any configuration in dvdfab that might be root cause ?

[rozemab]

The h/w screens note I'm at 362.00 now.
