Either increase //T:310 (time in encodenew2.bat) or remove it all together.

I doubt its needed, but it would prevent relay slow computers to end up whit several instens of encodenew2.bat running i put it on 900 about 15 minutes :slight_smile:

its also possible to add > log.txt in the end of the cscript.exe string… it makes a neat logfile so if something is wrong and you down’t have super photographic memory you have a Chance to figure out what is wrong :slight_smile:

put >> log.txt and you get the next log added to the first and so on…

Tnx fer superb program Brian
