320 kbps audio from Ripbot?

[lonrot]

Hi,

I prefer to deliver the audio with the highest quality possible because Youtube loves to re-encode everything.

How can you make Ripbot to encode the audio at 320 kbps aac or better yet 384kbps if the dropdown menu only offers up to 192 kbps?

You can put the cursor there and enter a value, you're not limited to using the dropdown

That's odd, I'm using Ripbot 1.17.5 and whenever I click on the audio profile field it opens the dropdown list. If I start typing nothing changes.

Sorry I was going by memory - maybe I was thinking of an older version or confusing it with the video bitrate which you used to be able to enter manually

You can submit a request to the Atak to add in more audio profiles/options

or you can use something else that allows you more control e.g. megui

Easy.

Select your file, choose settings. Go to Ripbot temp folder and edit job1_EncodeAudio.cmd (screen below):

Thank you Cauptain that did it!

Is it normal to have 6 channels listed in the codec information of the video?

SampleRate(Sample/sec) : 48000
BitRate(Bit/sample) : 16
Channels : 6
KBitRate(KBit/sec) : 384

Please post a mediainfo from your selected file here.

Hi guys, I'm reviving this thread to post an easy script to change the audio in Ripbot which can be opened from the desktop.
It involves two files inside the RipBot264temp folder:

batch.ps1:

Get-ChildItem *.cmd -Recurse | ForEach-Object { (Get-Content $_) | ForEach-Object { $_ -replace '128','384' } | Set-Content $_ }

batch.bat:

CD /D %root% C:\temp\RipBot264temp
powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -file batch.ps1

Make a shortcut for batch.bat which can be opened from anywhere. I set the quality to 384 as you can see in the batch.ps1. Change it to the bitrate you need and voila.

Bear in mind that it applies to every job you have on queue. Any job at 128 kbps will be replaced!

The script is attached as well.
