Beta 7.5.0.131

[yoyo57]

Been testing with standard videos during the week, and all ok. Although no quicker than 32bit.
Today tried two videos a 1080p x265 10bit and a 2160p/4K
Great results, converted to DVD with no issues at all.

Good morning yoyo57,

There is a bug that was reported to VSO.

1st video loaded ALWAYS ends up in 4:3 ratio.
Did you notice this ?
I loaded the same video twice, 1st entry was 4:3 and 2nd 16:9 as expected.

Now about the speed issue.

Are you loading viles manually OR you are opening/loading projects then convert ?
There is a speed issue loading files from project.

Load the files manually, ensure all your hardware tests were done, and you should see it much quicker than the 32 bits.

To prove it, do this…

Load 1 or 2 files,and SAVE IT in a project…

Start ConvertXtoDVD fresh and LOAD that project
Or double click on you project.

Convert and pay attention to the fps speed for each file (average) after a few minutes STOP, should be enough to see max fps.

Start ConvertXtoDVD fresh again.
Load the SAME files manually and convert.

Do you notice a huge speed difference now ? (Depends also on the codecs and video card)

The fps speed should be much higher ? ! ? !

Morning.
On two disks that each had 3 different videos. Each video outputted at 16:9 as expected. The videos are long, each one around 90 minutes long. So long project.

Hardware tests were done, and I load each file manually individually.

On the other points, I'll check them in a couple of days.

Thanks again, much appreciated.

A saved project, on my old PC the speed results follow, is W10 64 i5 3.4gh 16GB DDR4 Ram and very old Video Radeon HD7750 2gb.

Same files added individually, I do not see any change in speed of conversion

Hello,

UPDATE !
========

I always test with the same little videos so tests run fast !

I have this issue with the Dancing Cats, re-produced over and over on 2 machines ...

With this said, it seems I cannot reproduce this speed issue with regular full episodes/movies !

So please test with the Dancing Cat 01 / 02 / 03 to see WHY those videos has this issue and not others ...

Comments added to the bug site....
I guess this should NOT be an issue for most people, just no idea why these little videos get HUGE speed hit on testing....

[yoyo57]

Love the cat videos!
Results below comparing:
first - loading of 3 files individually
second - project of the 3 files
To me the results are the same, makes no difference

WHAT is going on !

Even with those 3 videos, I cannot reproduce it this morning !!!

I wanted to ensure the hardware decoding was used and it does all the time, Project or Manual etc...

I might install an OLD Build and see if I can reproduce it (Again)
Something must have changed that resolved it with Build 130-131 etc...

We've published a new build that should fix the problem. It's available here:
