Technical FAQ
- What is HST™?
HST™ (H.264 Speedup Tech) is an innovative advanced technology developed by OpenCloner Inc. It can largely increase the conversion speed of a Blu-ray movie.
Now a normal length Blu-ray movie can be converted up to 500% faster. This speedup is realized through optimizing the GPU of the video card.
- Does Blue-Cloner support HST™?
Yes. Beginning from Blue-Cloner 2, Blue-Cloner has supported the acceleration function of HST™. The transcoding speed of Blue-Cloner will be increased by about 5 times via the high speed operation of GPU, and video quality will also be greatly improved. But if you want to open the acceleration function of HST™, you need to have a video card which supports HST™.
- How to know whether my system supports the acceleration function of HST™?
After Blue-Cloner starts, it can automatically detect the system, and if your system supports the HST™ technology, you will see a black HST™ icon with a red dot added on the H.264 button under the codec page in the setup window, as shown:
Otherwise, if your system does not support HST™, you will see the following picture:

- How can I open the acceleration function of HST™ in Blue-Cloner?
After installing Blue-Cloner (Version2.00 and subsequent versions), it will automatically open the acceleration function without users' setting if the program detects that your system supports the acceleration function of HST™. If you need to close the function, please change "H.264" into "MPEG2" in the codec page in the setup window.
- Why does Blue-Cloner prompt me to update the driver when I want to open the acceleration function of HST™?
It is because Blue-Cloner finds out that your video card supports HST™ in the support list, but a driver of NVIDIA is not installed, so your video card cannot obtain the support of software. At this time, you need to use the official driver of NVIDIA, but cannot use the default driver of microsoft. After you install the official driver of NVIDIA, functions in the aspects of games, movies, files, etc. can all be enhanced. It may be for another reason that your official driver version is too old and cannot support the acceleration function. So now, you need to download the latest driver from NVIDIA. Please refer to the following official website to download: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
