RipBot error -- DirectShowSource : Timeout waiting for graph to start

[crankharder]

I've gotten this error several times on several different disks now:

"DirectShowSource : Timeout waiting for graph to start"

It happens after ripbot is finished Demuxing the streams and before encoding begins...

After reading a bunch of forum postings I have tried

a) using AnyDVD HD to rip the disk to HD first and then load that into RipBot
b) demuxing myself with txMuxer and then loading that into RipBot

All of these steps have ended up at the same spot.

Anyone know where that error is coming from and possibly how to avoid it?

Thanks!

Okay, reinstalled *everything* including windows, still getting the same issue. However, I checked the ripbot temp directory and I have a 5GB "audio_English.thd" file and a 30GB "video" that windows thinks is a Matroska File.

Both files play fine if I use the right program -- so it should follow that at this point I can manually compress and remux the files.

Given that i'm using RibBot, and the error above, which program is likely next in process -- so that I can hopefully better track down this error.

txMuxer maybe?

what os ? win7?

if so, you should use clisd's filter tweaker to force ffdshow over ms defaults

what does graphstudio say, when you render the video ? do the pins connect?

[crankharder]

win7 -- I will try those later today, thanx

[crankharder]

@poisondeathray I have 64bit win7 installed, so inside Filter Tweaker I've set everything I can to ffdshow (except mp2/3), however ALL of the options for 64-bit decoders are Microsoft.

The 32bit codec for cd1 wasn't checked (I changed it to ffdshow) -- attempting the first part (demuxing?) of ripbot again. I'll post back in ~30 minutes when it finishes, successful or not.

Ugh, this was user error. After RipBot finishes demuxes, and before it gets to the encoding settings I selected "Don't use ffdshow", I chose the opposite and everything is fine.

That got me also recently with a new install of RipBot when I wasn't paying attention to the muxing process. I hadn't seen that popup with older versions of ffdshow or RipBot.

Guys I'm having the exact same issue as described in this thread originally. How did you solve the issue? I don't see any options regarding using FDDshow. When you select to add the video steam in ripbot, it then brings up a menu where you select the playlist and audio track ETC. Don't see anything regarding FFDshow

I was experiencing the same types of errors, this is my first attempt at ripping BluRay.

Win 7 x64

I was using RipBot 1.15.1, I went backwards to 1.15.0 and everything works perfectly. I also cannot see any "dont use ffdshow" option.

[JSSR]

Thanks Modena. Going back to 1.15.0 fixed the issue!

THANK YOU!

I was having the same problem and was going nuts because I had an old blu-ray ISO which worked fine in RipBot, yet others I have ripped recently did not work (gave me the "DirectShowSource : Timeout waiting for graph to start." error posted) so I was beginning to suspect the new bluray drive I had installed somehow was at fault...

But using RipBot264 1.15.0 instead of 1.15.1 did the magic.
