I was able to get the the package handbrake-0.9.8-i486-1alien.txz to work using the dependencies listed in aiden's post (with some tweaks). installpkg fontconfig-2.8.0-i486-1.txz installpkg freetype-2.4.10-i486-1_slack13.1.txz installpkg gcc-g++-4.5.2-i486-2.txz installpkg glib-1.2.10-i486-3.txz installpkg glibc-2.11.1-i486-7_slack13.1.txz installpkg libogg-1.1.4-i486-1.txz installpkg libsamplerate-0.1.7-i486-1.txz installpkg libtheora-1.1.1-i486-1.txz installpkg libvorbis-1.2.3-i486-1.txz installpkg libxml2-2.7.6-i486-3_slack13.1.txz installpkg zlib-1.2.5-i486-4.txz I moved my HandBrakeCLI to /usr/local/bin/ to work with my queue scripts. ldd /usr/local/bin/HandBrakeCLI linux-gate.so.1 => (0xb771a000) libfontconfig.so.1 => /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1 (0xb76e6000) libfreetype.so.6 => /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 (0xb766c000) libogg.so.0 => /usr/lib/libogg.so.0 (0xb7667000) libsamplerate.so.0 => /usr/lib/libsamplerate.so.0 (0xb74fc000) libtheora.so.0 => /usr/lib/libtheora.so.0 (0xb74ab000) libtheoraenc.so.1 => /usr/lib/libtheoraenc.so.1 (0xb7468000) libtheoradec.so.1 => /usr/lib/libtheoradec.so.1 (0xb744f000) libvorbis.so.0 => /usr/lib/libvorbis.so.0 (0xb7427000) libvorbisenc.so.2 => /usr/lib/libvorbisenc.so.2 (0xb732e000) libxml2.so.2 => /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2 (0xb7208000) libbz2.so.1 => /lib/libbz2.so.1 (0xb71f7000) libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0xb71e3000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0xb71ca000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb71c6000) libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 (0xb70dd000) libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0xb70b7000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0xb70ab000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb6f43000) libexpat.so.1 => /usr/lib/libexpat.so.1 (0xb6f23000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb771b000) This can work, but I'm interested in the settings ClunkClunk used to compile the earlier package that didn't need the extra libs.

Thanks Andy, but I'm having some problems with this. ./handbrake.SlackBuild HandBrake-0.9.8/make/.svn/props/ HandBrake-0.9.8/make/config.guess HandBrake-0.9.8/make/xcodemake Hmm... Looks like a unified diff to me...

I'm fairly knowledgeable using Linux, but it's a life long learning process. Any suggestion is appreciated.

Hi ClunkClunk, Did you ever get a chance to compile HandbrakeCLI 0.9.6? I have been using 0.9.5 for a while, but no running into errors with BluRay mkv's. I'm thinking the newest version may help.

This may be a silly question, but the way I understand this script...If I use "user shares" I would want to use the -u switch, right? I access the server though user shares and the /mnt/user/ paths are the ones that should also be cached. Thanks

Hi Joe, I'm trying to track down a problem with some software I'm using where new directories are not being scanned. Anyhow, I think it might be a cache issue (browser, application files). I love your script, but I have a question. Where are the cache files saved? Just killing cache_dirs.sh doesn't fix my problem and I'm not sure what your script is doing. I guess I can start the server without your script ever started and copy new directories over to eliminate cache_dirs, but I want to use cache_dir. It could be an issue of completely refreshing the cache of dirs like the server was rebooted (which doesn't seem to fix it every time). thanks for your input!

ClunkClunk, I have been using 0.9.5 for a while now with no issues so far. Thanks for the help.

@ClunkClunk, Should we be using the unMenu .conf to ensure we are using the latest compiled package from you?

I still can't the folders to refresh. I'll keep looking. Maybe the developer changed something.

Hi, I love using cache dirs, but I'm trying to track down an issue with my music steamer running on my unRaid server (Subsonic). When I add a new folder, it doesn't show up unless I reboot. I shouldn't need to do this. Its not the browser cache and since I rebuilt the search index for Subsonic and deleted the folderCache files it uses, I'm looking at other possibilities. Stopping and starting the cache_dirs script doesn't help. Is there a way to force cache_dirs to rescan? Are files left over that could be deleted? Many Thanks!

Thanks a bunch ClunkClunk. I just saw the new on this today

ClunkClunk, The version out-of-date is fixed now. I'm still able to re-encode an mp4 and the audio works. My normal encodes are ~1.5gig (full resolution). I really wanted the audio bug fixed when re-encoding for portable viewing like my on my Droid. Converting an ISO, I had to change the "--Longest" switch in my script, but seems to work. Thanks again. A few changes that I feel are worth mentioning: Changeset 3268: add --main-feature title selection option (replaces -L longest title selection option) Changeset 3265: Fix an issue with the CLI version check logic. Changeset 3205: fix audio clipping when downmixing and output codec is lame On a side note, I upgraded the AMD Sempron 140 with a quad core Athlon II X4 635 in my unRaid. The single core preformed impressively well, but I wanted some more power for Handbrake. My encodes went from 10 fps (~4hrs) to 36 fps (~1hr) per movie. It's overkill for Slackware, but I might run a vm server in the future and this will definitely help.

Thanks ClunkClunk! I was able to encode the same MP4/AAC to a smaller mp4 file and the audio was correct this time. I have not tested this version will an ISO yet. One thing I noticed was the version seems to old when checking for a newer version... root@unraid:~# HandBrakeCLI -u [10:01:01] hb_init: checking for updates [10:01:01] Using http://handbrake.fr/appcast_unstable.xml [10:01:02] latest: 0.9.4, build 2009112300 [10:01:02] hb_init: checking cpu count [10:01:02] hb_init: starting libhb thread HandBrake svn3282 (2009110401) - Linux i686 - http://handbrake.fr You are using an old version of HandBrake.

ClunkClunk, Thanks so much for compiling a newer version of Handbrake. I’ve encountered a similar problem as reported here which sometimes produces garbled audio when encoding a MP4/ACC file. I do this to reduce the file size of a mp4 file for playback on a portable device. Some movies encode fine while others have audio that sounds like a record player spinning slowly. The same problem happens weather I encode on windows or unRaid (I'm playing the files in VLC). Handbrake-svn3154 still has the issue. I tried to compile my CLI and get the following error when trying to retrieve the svn: svn: error while loading shared libraries: libaprutil-1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Would you compile Handbrake-svn3205 (or above) package for us novices?

aaronjb, What CPU are you using? What encoding speeds to you see? I get ~10fps and ~3hrs (give or take) to encode a movie (basically tweaked setting of the 'classic' preset with a --quality 20). I find HandbrakeCLI runs better on unraid with my single 2.7Ghz, than on my windows Dual 2.0Ghz. I attached my Handbrake queue script. Its not user friendly with arguments and all, but neatly written. I run a tweaked S3 Sleep script. I wanted to be able to drop ISO's into a directory and have the script pick them up as long as there is time before I want my box to sleep at night. The sleep script won't shut down while the drives are spinning. So, as it loop though the files and adds 3hrs for ISO and 2hrs for mp4 (using the _small.sh settings) files until 7pm is exceeded. Just wanted to share what I worked on this weekend. P.S. I'm so happy this works on unRaid. Thank you for the latest compiled version ClunkClunk

I wanted to just be able to drop .ISO files in a directory and queue up encoding. There is no queue in the CLI, but with my limited scripting knowledge I was able to piece together some scripts that almost work. I have a few small questions. handbrake_queue.sh; ln 59 I would like the output file name to be the same as the ISO. My script is using the "basename" command and appending ".mp4". This produces "movie title.ISO.mp4". How can I remove the ".ISO" handbrake_queue.sh; ln 16 - I'm trying to determine if any ISO files are in the directory. I can't seem to get this to work correctly. if [ $(ls -l $ISO/*.ISO | wc -l) -gt 0 ] I start "handbrake_queue.sh &" so it can just run in the background. Its a never ending loop with a 1min (will up this to 10min) delay between checks for new .ISO files. On line 74, I start /queuelist.sh & the same way to prevent the process outputting to the screen. Is this a good way to go about this? Thanks
