Archivo - Compressing Video Hangs #64

Open beckga opened 8 years ago

beckga commented 8 years ago

Hi - I've been able to successfully archive files from TiVo using Archivo, however, I have frequent issues where the compressing video process counts up to over 2000 hours left when archiving a 1 hour show. I have 2 TiVo premieres and am using Archivo on my Windows 10, I-7 laptop with 16 GB of RAM. I searched forums to see if there is a resolution for this other than having to restart my laptop every time it happens. and then have to start the process of re-downloading the file, removing commercials, video repair and then finally video compression running again. It does work after restarting the pc and it happens whether I'm actively using the pc or if it is sitting idle. The archive interface is really nice and if anyone has a suggestion, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Hi @beckga, thanks for the bug report. Someone on the TiVo forums mentioned something similar, and said that replacing the HandBrake.exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\Archivo\ with the latest release of HandBrake fixed the issue. Let me know if the same thing works for you; if it does, I'll put together an updated release with this fix as soon as I can. The latest release of HandBrake's command-line app is at https://handbrake.fr/rotation.php?file=HandBrake-0.10.5-i686-Win_CLI.zip.

Thank you so much for your quick response. Coincidentally since I reported the issue, it has not happened again. I did notice there were several Microsoft Office updates installed on my PC last night. I might have believed that it was a fix if there had been Windows updates, so it is strange that it is suddenly working without me having done anything. I will continue to monitor and let you know if there are any further issues. I am really liking the program now - thanks for all your work. It is so nice!

This issue continues to be a problem for me as well. I've used 1.03 and 1.05 and more times than not, the program copies but the "Compressing Video" begins climbing up to thousands of hours left ("Compressing Video... (more than XXXX hours left).

@toddmannn and @beckga: I just released Archivo 1.1, which fixes a number of bugs. Does this problem still occur after updating? The new version is available at https://straylightlabs.net/archivo/#download.

Todd -

I've now tried 1.1 and transferred 4 different shows without issue, including 1 program that consistently wouldn't compress. Looks good!
