It is possible to change the bitrate from copy preset and have multidownload?

[ijorel]

Hello i have tried most o of the preset downloads or the ffmpeg command with multiple episodes downloads and the command "copy" is the only allows me to download 12 file simultaneously but the bitrate is about 7000k and i want it on the range of 2500k - 3000k, is there a posibility to change that bitrates?

-c copy does what the names says copy the video stream, if you want to change the bitrate you have to select an encoder instead of copy. The encoder is dependent on your preferences (h264, h265 or AV1) and hardware (nvenc for Nvidia GPUs, amf for AMD and qsv for Intel). All encoders should be limited at best to 2 download since it either limited by the driver or the hardware. CR usues h264 with mostly 8 MBit/s for 1080p.

when i select h264 on amf (fo amd) the app download process crashed,

I don't have access to any AMD GPU so I can not test it, but the ffmpeg log might contain something helpful.

and there's one error appears

the amd card is a rx6400

[hama3254]

the amd card is a rx6400

What I found is that this GPU has not the required hardware to allow for GPU encoding. Source Reddit The reddit post also gives suggestions like trying the iGPU of his Intel processor which should work on must except F version since the don't have a iGPU. Other options are software encoding (libx264 for h264) which the Downloader will limit to 1 stream since it will use 100% of practically any CPU you could have.

[ijorel]

ok got it, and for this error what can i do?

[hama3254]

This is a response issue from CR, it usually happen if download for longer time and the cookies would need to be refreshed. If this happens after some downloads you should just close and restart the downloader.

[ijorel]

Hello, i have restarted the app and wont work, how can i refresh cookies in order to continue downloading large queue because this error repeats until the queue procees all the list. it is possible to pause the queue until the cookies refresh?

[ijorel]

the solution is wait about 10-15 min but i need to add queue again, and for more than 41 videos it start to send me the error 403, my question is if its possible to do the pause until the app can resume downloads

[hama3254]

The Downloader is not build for such large download numbers. I set a season of 12 episodes per session this should be more than enough for the private use for what the downloader is build.

Could you increase it please?

@x3inspire i already explained that in #789.
