Index: Version 1.25.0 (Jan 4, 2020) Version 1.24.0 (Jan 26, 2019) Version 1.23.1 (Oct 28, 2018) Version 1.23.0 (Aug 26, 2018) Version 1.22.0 (Jan 2, 2018) Version 1.21.0 (Sep 22, 2017) Version 1.20.0 (Jul 8, 2017) Version 1.19.6 (Apr 6, 2017) Version 1.19.5 (Feb 2, 2017) Version 1.19.4 (Jul 19, 2016) Version 1.19.0 (Aug 2, 2015) Version 1.18.3 (Jun 27, 2015) Version 1.18.1 (Sep 18, 2014) Version 1.80.0 (Aug 28, 2014) Version 1.17.5 (Jan 1, 2014) Version 1.17.4 (Feb 2, 2013) Version 1.17.3 (Aug 2, 2012) Version 1.17.2 (Jun 13, 2012) Version 1.17.1 (Apr 28, 2012) Version 1.17.0 (Jan 2, 2012) Version 1.25.0 Release Date: Jan 4, 2020 Download(s): RipBot264v1.25.0.7z Added: EncodingClient combines chunks with output file on fly as soon as they are encoded in correct order Added: Option in EncodingClient to suspend jobless server Added: Option in EncodingClient to shutdown server at IDLE state Added: Audio profiles in ProfileAudio.txt Added: Variable priority mode to EncodingServer. In this mode EncodingClient will be automatically changing encoding priority in order to balance progress on multiple servers running on the same machine. Added: EncodingClient now also shows encoding priority set on server side ,selected encoding numa node and communication delay. Added: Support for GPU decoding via lsmash plugin Added: HDR HLG support Changed: DGHable tonemapper to BT2446. Furthermore BT2446 has been configured to emulate MadVR's tonemapping. Changed: lsmash is now a default decoder for all formats. Fixed: EncodingClient is now copying file to shared folder in buffered mode. Windows disables buffered write if write buffer in application is higher than 16MiB. Because of this write buffer has been reduced from 64MiB to 16MiB. Buffered write significantly reduces copy time on machine with huge amount of RAM. Fixed: Excessive flickering of encoding status in EncodingClient Fixed: EncodingServer not starting on some Xeon machines with high number of threads. Fixed: Few minor bugs found since last version. Version 1.24.0 Release Date: Jan 26, 2019 Download(s): RipBot264v1.24.0.7z Added: Two new options in RipBot264.ini (RunCommandSuccess,RunCommandError). Example: RunCommandSuccess="C:\Some Folder\YourProgram.exe" /some_switches %JOB% Runs specified command when a job is finished. Added: CPU utilization graph in EncodingServer and in EncodingClient. Added: KNLMeansCL [Adaptive] denoiser. (denoising strength is being reduced according to luminosity of the pixel) Added: /server-name , /avisynth-prefetch-threads and /knlmeanscl-opencl-device-type to supported switches by EncodingServer.exe. Added: /restart-if-no-progress switch also activates extra process (SuperviseProcess.exe) in order to detect any hangs directly in EncodingServer.exe. (logs are stored in %TEMP%\SuperviseProcessLog.txt and %TEMP%\EncodingServerLog.txt) Added: Auto reconnect option in EncodingClient.exe Changed: /knlmeanscl-opencl-device to /knlmeanscl-opencl-device-id and /x264-opencl-device to /x264-opencl-device-id Changed: EncodingClient no longer re-indexes video file. Fixed: EncodingServer.exe not starting on machines with more than 32 logical processors. Fixed: Instability in EncodingServer on some machines. Version 1.23.1 Release Date: Oct 28, 2018 Download(s): RipBot264v1.23.1.7z Added: Option to bind EncodingClient to specific IP Added: Commandline switch to bind EncodingServer to specific IP (for example EncodingServer.exe /IP 192.168.0.1) Added: Commandline switch for EncodingServer /restart-if-no-progress (automatically restarts stalled encoding task) Changed: Audio and Video streams are now indexed simultaneously. Fixed: Various bugs reported since last major version Version 1.23.0 Release Date: Aug 26, 2018 Download(s): RipBot264v1.23.0.7z Added: Better queue management Added: support for commandline switches in EncodingServer.exe (/minimize , /port , /node , /affinity , /priority , /x264-opencl-device and /knlmeanscl-opencl-device) Example: EncodingServer.exe /minimize /port 2000 /node 2 /affinity AAAA /priority low /x264-opencl-device 0 /knlmeanscl-opencl-device 1 EncodingServer will start in tray and start listening using port 2000. Encoding task will be assigned to NUMA node 2 with affinity mask for CPU1,CPU3,CPU5,CPU7,CPU9,CPU11,CPU13,CPU15 in low priority. Futhermore x264 opencl will be set for first device and KNLMeansCL filter for second device. Added: Support fot 3rd audio stream Added: Preffered audio language option Added: HDR to SDR conversion directly in script (no bottleneck if used with prefetch) Added: Automatic pre-indexing of all audio streams after demuxing Added: support for PRORES as input format. Changed: WatchFolder Mode now adds first unlocked file to queue instead of waiting for first detected file in folder to be unlocked Fixed: Crashing in EncodingServer when other instance was being closed. EncodigServer also starts much faster than before. Fixed: Various bugs reported since last major version Version 1.22.0 Release Date: Jan 2, 2018 Download(s): RipBot264v1.22.0.7z Added: Support for UHD Blurays Added: Automatic HDR information retention while encoding to HEVC format Added: Automatic HDR to SDR tonemaping during conversion to AVC format Added: Option to limit MT usage to specific filters only Added: Custom Script option Fixed: Various fixes and improvements Version 1.21.0 Release Date: Sep 22, 2017 Download(s): RipBot264v1.21.0.7z Added: Support for AviSynth+ MT x64 (installer located in ToolsAviSynth folder) Finally no need to automatically limit processing threads due to 32bit memory limitation. Warning! Jobs created by older version won't work with this version! You must start with freshly created job! Fixed: Various tweaks and changes under the hood. Updated: MKVToolnix v15.0.0, EncodingServer v1.8.1 Version 1.20.0 Release Date: Jul 8, 2017 Download(s): RipBot264v1.20.0.7z Added: Automated Batch Mode (aka watch folder mode).
