BD Ripper (3D Plus) BD To Mobile Settings/Time

[jtrevill]

I've done hundreds of DVD to Mobile using the XBox profile creating WMV's. Each of them took approximately 1.5-2 hours. I'm trying my first BD to Mobile today with the same Xbox profile and WMV's.

What sort of settings should I be looking at for the best quality? I'm not concerned about file size or bandwidth (I have plenty of storage and run on a wired gigabit network).

Today I was testing Cars... Its taking an estimated 8 hours with a Quad Core Processor and 4 gig of RAM. Is this normal? Or is something set to a too high of quality? What's the normal time estimate for 1 Blu Ray movie?

Cars took me about 2 hours (converting for iPad), using two pass, 1500 mb target size.
That was using File to Mobile. Using Bluray to Mobile, it took over 6 hours. quad core, @ 2.4 ghz. 4 gig ram. Because of this speed discrepancy, I'm using File to Mobile for my converts. Still trying to get an answer from support on why the diff, and if I'm losing anything doing it this way (some hidden encoder difference?). I'm not interested in anything other than the main movie, so works for me, and seems to look comparable to HB output). CUDA active, with my 8800GT, btw.

I am trying to convert Avatar to MKV Main Movie to 12 GB and its going to take 15 hours what gives.

8 GB RAM is maximum for that Dell according to its tech specifications posted on the site.

Also your CPU is too slow, therefore it takes 15 hours.

sorry that should have been 1.93 GB ram

what size cpu to cut down this time?

what size cpu to cut down this time?

Quad. And CUDA-enabled card will help too, if GPU acceleration activated

I am going to try on another machine.
where do i enable CUDA and GPU acceleration ?

[GregiBoy]

Settings->General->A/V Codec

You can only use GPU acceleration if your card CUDA-enabled (if it's nVIDIA) or DXVA-enabled (for ATI cards).
For that you have to go to Common Settings (Little green circle in top right corner of main window) ->A/V Codec. If you see your card is listed in Codec information - you're good, and you can activate GPU acceleration. For that you set drop-downs for CUDA (or DXVA) where available, click OK and restart DVDFab

You should choose the A/V codec settings carefully based on the type of video compression used on the original disc. The conversion speed will not be optimum if your video card has to do both the encoding and decoding. Experimenet with these settings, and by all means get CoreAVC ($12) to speed up decoding of AVCHD compressed discs. In my experience, MPEG-2 Blu-rays are the slowest, AVCHD (h264) the fastest (if CoreAVC is installed). Fast (DDR3) RAM helps also. It takes some tweaking of your system to get really good performance compressing Blu-rays. I was able to double my speed making BD->BD-9/1080conversions by using CUDA only for the encoding and using software for the decoding.

Hello I have a question about your post. I have an nvidia Geforce GT 220. I see my card under codec information in DVDFAB. See below. Am I reading it correctly, does this mean my video card supports both CUDA and DXVA mode? If so which should I use? Normally I use software for all because I had some problems with default settings but it takes a long time with software

Graphics Chipset :
NVIDIA GeForce GT 220

Supported Video Codecs :
CUDA_MODE_H264
CUDA_MODE_VC1
DXVA_MODE_H264
DXVA_MODE_VC1

CoreAVC : cannot be detected.

I would select CUDA as that seems better supported, but be prepared to turn it off if you have problems.

Thank you for your reply ))
