It’s crazy. Why does the libx265 take SO much processing power to just convert ONE file at a time. I mean it pushes my CPU to >80% and if I try 2 files it’s 100% and stays there. And, the hevc_amf encoder won’t create 10-bit HEVC through the GUI I use. I’m just about ready to encode from the original sources again to h.264 and forget it.
I agree and have found that out. HEVC is a hog when it comes to processing. But, the reason I’m re-encoding is because my system crashed or should I say someone crashed it for me (long story) and I need to rebuild a large part of my library and just want everything consistent.
I have a problem with 10-Bit though. When I try to encode more than 1 file in 10-Bit with the HEVC_AMF ffmpeg encoder, my CPU usage goes to 100% and stays. And with 1000s of files to do. Well, you can imagine. Ugh!
It does but I’ve found how to force a HEVC 10-bit file using ffmpegBatch. I replace the program’s version of ffmpeg with the full ffmpeg version & then use the libx265 encoder with Profile=10 & Pixel Format=yuv420p10le & I get a nice HEVC 10-Bit file everytime but there’s one small problem, I can only process one file at a time or it pushes my CPU to 100% otherwise so I’ll just need to be patient in my processing. 🙂 Thanks for your input!
I’m not working with High Def sources anyway. It’s mainly shows from the 60s-00s and older cartoons so I’m wondering if the 8-bit vs. 10-bit is really even important. I mainly just want to re-encode my library and reduce it’s “footprint”.
Here is what the command looks like for one of my presets in ffmpeg Batch and you’re saying I need to add MORE to it? I don’t even know what half of this means…
-map 0 -c:v hevc_amf -quality balanced -rc cqp -qp_p 25 -qp_i 25 -quality balanced -rc cqp -qp_p 25 -qp_i 25 -vf “scale=640:480,crop=ih/3*4:ih” -c:a aac -b:a 128K -filter:a loudnorm
Is that H265 (10-Bit)? Also, I have to use a GUI as I don’t know how to use the command line version of ffmpeg.
I’ll give it another look but there was some reason I didn’t like Handbrake when I tried to use it. But, thanks for the response.
Can it handle multiple files @ the same time?
As a follow-up, I’ve downloaded the 64-bit exe from Github and actually installed tartube and that seems to be Ok for the time being. I’m running a complete Security sweep right now to see if it catches anything. We’ll see.
