Yeah, I liked Jdownloader2 but I can do about the same with 4K Video Downloader plus it conflicted and corrupted my IDM installation so I had to remove both and reinstall IDM to get it back working. Lesson 1: you don’t install 2 downloaders. LOL
Phew, that worked better. No virus that time. I’ll give it a try and see if it’ll work for me. I was getting a bit nervous there for a minute. Thank you for updating your information!
My antivirus flagged it as a virus (Potential Unwanted Program). Thank goodness it caught and quarantined it.
It’s crazy. Why does the libx265 take SO much processing power to just convert ONE file at a time. I mean it pushes my CPU to >80% and if I try 2 files it’s 100% and stays there. And, the hevc_amf encoder won’t create 10-bit HEVC through the GUI I use. I’m just about ready to encode from the original sources again to h.264 and forget it.
I agree and have found that out. HEVC is a hog when it comes to processing. But, the reason I’m re-encoding is because my system crashed or should I say someone crashed it for me (long story) and I need to rebuild a large part of my library and just want everything consistent.
I have a problem with 10-Bit though. When I try to encode more than 1 file in 10-Bit with the HEVC_AMF ffmpeg encoder, my CPU usage goes to 100% and stays. And with 1000s of files to do. Well, you can imagine. Ugh!
It does but I’ve found how to force a HEVC 10-bit file using ffmpegBatch. I replace the program’s version of ffmpeg with the full ffmpeg version & then use the libx265 encoder with Profile=10 & Pixel Format=yuv420p10le & I get a nice HEVC 10-Bit file everytime but there’s one small problem, I can only process one file at a time or it pushes my CPU to 100% otherwise so I’ll just need to be patient in my processing. 🙂 Thanks for your input!
I’m not working with High Def sources anyway. It’s mainly shows from the 60s-00s and older cartoons so I’m wondering if the 8-bit vs. 10-bit is really even important. I mainly just want to re-encode my library and reduce it’s “footprint”.
Can you encode H265 10bit using the amf_h265 in ffmpeg? I hope I’m using the right terminology?
Here is what the command looks like for one of my presets in ffmpeg Batch and you’re saying I need to add MORE to it? I don’t even know what half of this means…
-map 0 -c:v hevc_amf -quality balanced -rc cqp -qp_p 25 -qp_i 25 -quality balanced -rc cqp -qp_p 25 -qp_i 25 -vf “scale=640:480,crop=ih/3*4:ih” -c:a aac -b:a 128K -filter:a loudnorm
Is that H265 (10-Bit)? Also, I have to use a GUI as I don’t know how to use the command line version of ffmpeg.
I’ll give it another look but there was some reason I didn’t like Handbrake when I tried to use it. But, thanks for the response.
Can it handle multiple files @ the same time?
My Radeon 470 had Kronos Open CL but I think some of my system drivers have gone crazy because the option to use it has disappeared. I’m really considering a new build even though my system’s only 3.5 yrs old.
I see what you mean about the other CODECs like VP9 and AV1. The future looks good for them but for a Plex library not so much. I tried converting a single ~20 minute TV episode and it took about ~16mins for AOM-AV1 and VP9 was somewhat over an hour or so. But, H265 zips right along in ~5 mins or less an ep with not as much strain on the CPU. Probably be going down the H265/AAC route. Thanks for the data & information. It’s helped very much!

So, any device that handles 4K should be able to handle H.265. Good informattion to know. Thanks for the input!
Thanks for the clarification on 264. I have an AMD 3700x with Radeon 470 graphics card. I’d like a decent balance between CPU/GPU encoding so not to put too much stress on just the CPU. I know nothing about AV1. Can Smart TVs read the AV1 or VP9 codec? I know my LG will take H.264 & H.265 but I haven’t tried the others?

Thank you so much for explaining all of this! So, it’s not an “exact” match for a virus, it’s the “behaviour” of the Patch/Crack that makes the AV/Malware software “see” or “think” it’s a Virus/Malware. That makes much more sense.
I’ve copied the link for the software with patch below. Wondershare UniConverter
At the bottom of the link, are the references from VirusTotals. I use Avast & Malwarebytes Pro and the report says Malwarebytes would catch and quarantine it. I guess a virus/malware to me is always a risk and I’ve had my system crashed in the past due to that and don’t want a repeat. If you don’t mind, I would like your opinion on whether to try it or not. Again, thanks so much for the explanation!
