[dvd::rip] Many problems with a dvd::rip-cluster...(audio encoding problems, can' stop nodes, speed of the nodes...)

[Carlos-Manuel Major <cmajor@xxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone!

I'm experiencing some problems with a dvd::rip cluster . Well, first, the configuration:

1--MASTER NODE with etch, processor athlon xp3200+ master of th cluster, it runs the daemon (dvd::rip+transcode).
2 --FIRST  NODE with etch, processor athlon xp3200+, first node of the cluster, it only runs transcode.
3--SECOND NODE with sarge, processor Intel Pentium III, second node of the cluster, it runs transcode and nfs server.

transcode & dvd::rip installation with apt-get and marillat repository.


My problems are:

First, the speed of my first node is very slow (about 10 to 15 tps) but the master run 30 to 35 tps!!! Is it normal?

Second, i cant stop the nodes, even the master. When i hit  the stop button, it becomes grey but  transcode continues on each node. And when i hit start node, the node processes a second job at the same time. For example, before hitting stop, the node processes "chunk 1, pass 1" after hitting stop button & start button, the node processes chunk 1, pass1" AND "chunk 3, pass1". Each time i press stop ans start, a new job starts. Don't understand...

third and last for the moment ;-) i want to encode only the video stream. When i use only one PC (no cluster node) ther's no problem but when i use the cluster, i get errors, i think dvd::rip try to mux a audio and video streams but it can't find the audio stream. Can i solve that?

Well, i'm sorry for my english, i just hope it's readeable :-|

Regards.
