, you just need to download and replace the (extracted)StaxRip.exe
file.

This update will destroy your existingSvtAv1EncApp
profiles. You have to take care and re-set them! Be aware that this is also valid for existing jobs!

Please check out the Changelog as always to know what has changed and start with fresh settings to avoid side effects. In case you want to use the old settings, double-check the templates and settings for the encoders mentioned in the Changelog!
When it comes to Dolby Vision and Cropping I highly recommend reading this updated guide, especially when you think the crop is not correct: Encoding Dolby Vision with StaxRip
[!IMPORTANT]
In case you have problems extracting the archive, please update your extraction tool or use 7-Zip.
Because some users reported this problem, I have re-uploaded the (same) release with another compression.

💡 The last two releases had to be rushed to prevent users creating broken Dolby Vision encodes. Because of that many related issues are fixed and improved with this release. When it comes to Dolby Vision and Cropping I highly recommend reading this updated guide, especially when you think the crop is not correct:
Encoding Dolby Vision with StaxRip using x265, NVEncC, QSVEncC, VCEEncC
Please check out the Changelog as always to know what has changed and start with fresh settings to avoid side effects.

This one is an important update for everyone, who also uses sources with Dolby Vision metadata and wants to transfer them to the encode/target properly while cropping the image. As it turned out, a lot of guides and information are wrong, misleading or at least incomplete from a general point of view. It took me hours to get and verify all the information about that topic and develop a way to ensure all different types of sources are treated the right way, so the encode will be as accurate as possible.
Basically almost everything should be straight forward and handled by StaxRip, definitely a lot easier, faster and less error prone than before. Please make sure to run a new instance with new settings and jobs to avoid side effects like lost or changed settings and handling.
x265
is supported!Custom
section to add Dolby Vision parameters by hand will interfere with the procedures, so please avoid that.Import VUI metadata
- nothing new, but I wanted to mention it.VBV settings
have to be manually set as required by the encoder. In a future version the values might get set by StaxRip, but currently you have to do it by hand. If not, the Assistant will help you.Auto Crop on opening
feature, that was activated by enabling the Crop
filter on a template, moved to the Options
. Now you can decide between No auto cropping
, Dolby Vision sources only
, which uses the metadata to set the right crop, and On all sources
which uses the normal Auto Crop
feature in case no Dolby Vision metadata was found.eac3to
will be forced to extract also the Enhancement Layer
and use it to extract the metadata depending your choice on Extract HDR metadata
.Resize
and Cutting
filters are currently not allowed. In case of a problem, the Assistant will guide you. You can avoid that by putting the code into a different filter as the Assistant only checks for the filter names. Be aware that you will probably mess up with the result!
Crop
feature is limited. In case of a problem, the Assistant will guide you. You can avoid that by putting the code into a different filter as the Assistant only checks for the Crop

Special thanks to @Morku for testing some scenarios and finding some bugs. 🙏
🤔 There is no way I have mentioned everything I wanted to. 😅

💡 This release is a regular release again, so I recommend using fresh/new settings, otherwise be careful because of possible side effects.
⚠️ There was a annoying bug that caused a crash when a specific project was saved. If you've downloaded the release before, just use the hotfix to replace StaxRip.exe
. Sorry for the inconvenience. 😞

⚠️ This release is a bit different: No tools or plugins were added or updated and the StaxRip.exe
file is (almost?) 100% compatible with v2.32.x
. Therefore this time you can find two archives to download:
StaxRip-v2.33.0-x64.7z
- In case you don't have v2.32.x
or you want to run a clean and complete instance, this is the one to go.StaxRip-v2.33.0_ExeOnly.7z
- If you already have v2.32.x
, you can download this packed exe file only, replace the existing one from v2.32.x
with this one and you're fine.Published by Dendraspis 9 months ago

💡 As always: Even tested, please check the outcome of the HDR10+/DolbyVision encodes when using the new features to verify it worked also for your type of source file.
⚠️ Please note, that since v2.29.0
for x265
an AVX2
build is included. If you want a generic build or one, that is even more challenging for your CPU, visit @Patman86 's Releases and simply replace x265.exe
or edit the path in StaxRip's App Manager.

A rollercoaster year is over, but we managed to publish 17 releases in 2023. A lot of bugs were fixed and new features implemented. And more is going to come in 2024 - starting with this one. 🍾
✨ I wish you only the best for 2024! ✨

The last release sadly has pathing bug, that needs to be fixed.
⚠️ In case you have StaxRip v2.26.0
already in use, just download StaxRip.exe
and delete recovery.srip
as well as the subfolder StaxRip_temp
from the StaxRip folder and you're up to date. Because nothing was changed setting- and file-wise, the setting files are compatible with v2.26.0
. Otherwise proceed as usual.
Changelog:
This time there are no UPX-packed executables included, so there are no false positive AntiVirus warnings any more.
Special thanks to @DJATOM and @jlw4049 for contributing and @pat-e and @Patman86 for helping and testing with the new VapourSynth version. 🤝 🏅
