I usually do not restart my iMac between processing the files. And I noticed when I was upgrading to Mohave that the system reported "Machine thermal status is now fair," more often and for longer periods (30min to an hour) than "Machine thermal status is now normal" (only 2-5 min.).ĭoes anyone know if this sounds like a CPU or GPU failure? And if so, what remedies are advisable? I hear the fan running very loudly when processing a video.

And it's not my software, because even files done in other apps were affected this time.įrom what I've read online tonight, it seems like a hardware failure of some kind. So I know the problem is not my external HDD. Video showed up, and the file size was accurate. So I deleted them, processed one of the files again, and it seemed fine. Like 93MB on video files I know should have read 3GB. But some of the file sizes were really way off. Restarted the iMac, plugged the HDD back into the computer, and most of the files looked okay again. I plugged the drive into my media player connected to my TV, and the same videos looked fine. So both H.264 and H.265 files were effected this time. Even videos I'd previously converted with Super265 days ago. It happened again tonight, but this time even videos that had already been processed a few days ago were also effected. The first time this happened, I thought my external HDD had failed. Audio remains, but the video that was there just moments before appears gone. Both the original source video and the finished file. In the middle of a batch file process, all the videos turned solid green. I also may convert some of these videos from H.264 to H.265 using the Super265 app.Įverything's been going fine until a few weeks ago.

mp4 files that range anywhere from 2GB to 7GB. The most intensive work I use it for is amateur video editing.

I recently upgraded the OS to Mohave 10.14.1. Just to separate them out a bit, so when I eventually find a good version of some of my older classics I can replace the non-HEVC version or handbrake it myself.I'm running a late 2015 iMac (Retina 5K, 27-in) 4GHz Intel Core i7 with a AMD Radeon R9 M395X 4096 MB graphics card.

Which are both added to the 'Movies' library in Plex.

I also have FileBot setup to place movie content into two separate folders depending on the Codec Movies Slow process finding stuff, but once you get it all done. I've found several discussions on this and it always seems to turn into an argument and I haven't really seen anything that I would consider "best practices". I'm interested in the ideal settings for h.265 in order to maintain quality of my media but optimize the codec and disk usage. I have plenty of horsepower in my rack - currently 3x fully-loaded Dell R710s that are cold and I've a few desktops and laptops with i7 7700 or better CPUs with GPU hardware that could possibly be used as workers for tdarr. I'm interested in feedback on other tools/methodologies for managing the conversion of ~20 TB of media to h.265 I'm also wary about the h.265 compatibility with Plex and the various clients I serve - will I transcode more or less and what's the best way to determine that.Īs for the how, I played with tdarr a while back: and it seemed like a decent tool for the job. I'm wary, though, because in the past better compression has usually meant lower media quality.

I keep hearing about the "benefits" of h.265 and one of them is the reduced disk space due to better compression algorithms. I have a large mixed library containing a variety of codecs and I'd like to get it all on the same page.
