DVD-RB 1.27.1 keeps crashing after doing its work

[urvieh]

This is something new: I've had it work on a DVD with four documentaries on it (cleaned dvb-c recordings, total size a little over 5 GB). Bitrate redistribution is turned on, and so is the "All VTS" setting. I'm working in one-click mode.
According to the log file, everything is done well, but then an error message pops up and an OK kills DVD-RB.

Can anyone confirm this?

TIA.

I also got the error box crash after a rebuild was completed with 1.27.1. It was a ok box and warned something about the data you were working with may be lost or corrupt. It looked like a DVD-RB message, not a box from Windows.

Rebuild was correct and the files worked. I did a rebuild again and there was no error box crash. I did not save the logs, but there was no error indicated.

[Boulder]

I've seen it too. The last time it happened, DVD-RB had already been idle for several hours after the rebuilding phase had completed.

[jdobbs]

Dobbs scratches head. How do I debug something that happens when the program is idling???

[Boulder]

Well, it seems to occur usually right after the rebuilding phase, I just caught it again. The bad thing is that there is no dump file or anything to send you, there is only the Close button in the crash report window.

Try to run DVDRB in a debug (windbg) environment.

http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/installx86.mspx

1. Load up windbg and click 'File' -> Open Executable. Point to Rebuilder.exe

2. Click the 'Debug' menu and then 'Go'. DVDRB should then load up.

3. Run it and try to reproduce the error and if so, post the log in full.

Regards

[Boulder]

Thanks, I'll give it a go when I get home from work.

[urvieh]

I just tried to run filemon and dvd-rb at the same time. "Debugger detected" closed both applications. I wonder if blutach's advice will work :).

[mc2man]

i see that error trying to open 1.27.1 in wine - took a quick look in windbg - the only difference from 1.26.2 is the .dll's and size of .exe
in any event .26 works great.
log from 1.27.1

I haven't seen it again since I changed the encoder mode to Procoder Express and turned off bitrate distribution.

[wildchild77]

Same problem here when running 1.27.0 or 1.27.1 in Linux under Wine, something has been broken.

http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1103203#post1103203

@Jdobbs any thoughts on what changes may have caused this and could it be related to the changes in the mobile features?

[JJB]

I am getting the same error on 2 different computers.
It seems to do no harm as the job had been completed for a couple of hours before the error appears.

[Video Dude]

I got the error again, but this time it was in the middle of the Encode phase.

I left the error box alone and did not click ok. DVD-RB finished the Encode phase and completed the rebuild. After the rebuild, I clicked ok in the error box and it forced DVD-RB to close. No errors in log and output files appear valid (not corrupt).

Error only happens with 1.27.1.



Edit: DVD-RB was idle after the Prepare stage (before encode and rebuild).

[urvieh]

@Video Dude: Bitrate distribution enabled or disabled?

No idea yet. If it weren't happening on more than one computer I'd say it was instability in the system. I changed the compression software which is where my concentration is now -- but I'm not sure how that would cause this. The really interesting part is the fact that it continues to run correctly, which means the problem appears to be occurring outside of DVD-RB's direct code.

I may post a version using different compression just as a test to see if there is any effect.

[Video Dude]

@Video Dude: Bitrate distribution enabled or disabled?

Redistribution enabled with "always use HC" checked
Using CCE Basic for high bitrate movies, ProCoder for low bitrate movies.

[mc2man]

looking at some traces in winedbg both on an intel (produces debugger detected) and an amd (returns different error) there's a behavior 'similar' to what might be expected when an app has some sort of debug protection. I'm maybe wrong (not the first nor last), if not it's certainly justified. In terms of wine though it's a bit of a showstopper without custom patch.

I wish someone could tell me how to repeat this "crash". I've been running v1.27.1 over-and-over... I've done about 20 DVDs since this thread started, and I cant get it to occur.

I'm aware of the Wine issue and may be able to get around that one. It's because DVD-RB thinks there is a debugger trying to rip it off.

@wildchild77

I take exception to the "something is broken" comment, however. At no point have I ever promised DVD-RB compatibility under Linux. It isn't "broken" when you are trying to use it on a system for which it wasn't designed. But, of course, I will look at it.

The something is broken comment was in reference to Wine and not DVD Rebuilder. I have been using Rebuilder for quite some time and it has always been rock solid. Wine on the other hand is still in development and things get broken quite often. Ver.1.26.6 still works perfectly on my Linux set-up and I still have a Windows machine as back-up. Any help you can offer will be greatly apreciated and thanks again for the great program!

[urvieh]

Negative answer: After a successful encode with Procoder Express and w/o bitrate distribution (successful in the sense that the error didn't occur), I turned back to HC with bitrate redistribution enabled. There has not been a crash since. What does switching from HC to Procoder and turning off BR change? Could it be the standard EclPro.ini? I'm guessing because I'm not a programmer ...

[Boulder]

I've got it by simply doing the prepare phase, handling redistribution in Rb-Opt, then continuing in DVD-RB by clicking on Rebuild. On my system, it happens after the rebuilding has been completed and the final resulting DVD is fine. I use HC022.1 to encode.

[jdobbs]

Do you have any debuggers or something that might be confused with a debugger running?

[urvieh]

Not here.

[Boulder]

Nope, only DVD-RB and the usual programs that I've always had. I haven't had this problem with previous versions.

When the crash box occurs a Dr. Watson process appears in the process list. Here is the dump for 2 crashes found in the Dr. Watson folder.

I have a hard time understanding how DGDECODE.DLL is crashing suddenly since it is a binary exact match with the one that was in v1.26.6.

What versions of all software are you using? Are they all (AVISYNTH, all Encoders, DGDECODE) the defaults that are installed with DVD-RB? Do you have some other beta code running?

Again... I cannot repeat this no matter how hard I try.

@Boulder

Can you downgrade to HC v0.22 and see if it continues?

[Video Dude]

Everything is from DVD-RB except AviSynth. I installed it before RB.

- Versions :
-- Rebuilder: v1.27.0
-- CCE Basic Version: 2.70.1.16
-- QuEnc Version: 0.7.2.0
-- HC Version: 0.22.0.0
-- DGDECODE Version: 1.4.5
-- AVISYNTH: 2.5.6.0



Can somebody else check the txt file in the Dr. Watson folder to see if we have the same crash log?

For XP:
Copy this directory location into Run... or use the the IE address bar:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\
Search for Rebuilder or DGDecode in the text file

@jdobbs: Sure, I'll start a new project tonight.

[jdobbs]

Here's another question just for clarity: Has anyone gotten this with any encoder other than HC? I'm not saying I think HC is the problem -- I'm trying to see if it is related to the way DVD-RB calls HC in this version... for example the *NOSMP change.

[urvieh]

No, just with HC (v0.22).

[JJB]

2 pc's both with HC 0.22

[jdobbs]

Okay. I'm trying to put my finger on what's causing this and since I can't reproduce it I'll have to try a different route. I've posted a beta version with some changes. Could someone who is experiencing this please download the test version from this link (http://www.jdobbs.com/downloads/DVD-RB1272B1.zip) and give it a quick test to see if it still occurs and please post your results. (note: this will only work for registered users). The link is a zip file with just a replacement REBUILDER.EXE in it.

Thanks.

[Sharc]

I don't know if this could be relevant to the problem.
With HC22.1 (HCgui, standalone) I get - for some sources - the error:
ERROR, source mismatch in pass 2 starting at frame: xx. (xx is some ten's).
The encoding process continues, but the final quality seems to be affected. I haven't been able to find a rule when this error happens, but the error does not pop up when I tick the new option "use lossless file".
I reported it to hank as well.

@jdobbs: My current project will end in a few hours, I'll see if DVD-RB crashes and then try the beta to rebuild.

[Sharc]

Have you tried enabling the *AVSRELOAD option?
Thanks Boulder, this seems to solve my problem.
Strange that with earlier versions I could only use HC in 2-pass mode without reloading avisynth (hank was kind enough to make a special build for those few who experienced this problem. and made it an option afterwards). Things appear to be kind of reversed now ..... Maybe it's just with my system.

[Sharc]

Strange enough the rule for my system seems to be:
- If I encode from an .avs I have to enable AVSRELOAD
- If I encode from a .d2v I have to disbale AVSRELOAD

Anyway, I do not want to divert from the basic problem of this thread, I just thought there might be some relation.

[Boulder]

Things appear to be kind of reversed now ..... Maybe it's just with my system.The same happens here, that was the reason why I asked if jdobbs could add it too :) I also posted a question regarding your issue with the source mismatch to the HC022 thread in the MPEG-2 encoding subforum.

[Boulder]

Thanks.Seems to work, at least no immediate crash. I'll leave DVD-RB idling in the background and see if it vanishes over time.

[jdobbs]

Did it do it consistently (give the error) on the previous version? I'm trying to determine if I'm on the right track. When you say "vanishes" -- was that what it was doing before? Did it give an error message?

[Boulder]

Yes, I think it happened during all those 4-5 projects I've done with v1.27.1.

EDIT: DVD-RB hasn't crashed yet, so there is a good chance that it is working :)

[jdobbs]

Interesting. There were a couple of times I'd gone to my video computer and thought DVD-RB should be running (and complete) in the last couple of days and it wasn't there... but I just assumed I wasn't remembering correctly. So maybe I had seen this issue and it just didn't click. I was expecting an error message of some sort as had been reported by others.

[Boulder]

On my computer, it happened once or twice through the normal error reporting window but lately it had just vanished - and I also thought that either me or the wife had closed the Rebuilder window:devil:

[jdobbs]

Still going? No crash?

[Boulder]

Still going? No crash?I'm not at home at the moment, but will report back in a few hours.

[jdobbs]

You leave your home? Hmmm... What's it like out there? Scary? I've heard there's a nuclear furnace high in the sky that irradiates the surface of the Earth with electromagnetic waves. Is that true? It sounds really dangerous.

[Video Dude]

3 encodes and so far no crashes.

[jdobbs]

Cool. I think I'm going to start packaging this up for release.

Thanks.

[Boulder]

One sometimes needs to enter the Zone...

DVD-RB is standing still, so I think you've got it:)

[wildchild77]

Rebuilder 1.27.2 is still not working with Wine on Linux. I still get the same Debugger found error when trying to open the program after installation. Not wanting to Hijack this thread I will post any updates in the Linux section in an old thread.

http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=120107

I stiil have a few more things to try as well as posting a bug report over at WineHQ. Maybe those guys can come up with a solution or work around. It seems there is a conflict with the debugger built into Wine, but I am no programmer!

Jdobbs :thanks: for the great program!

Pro V. 1.26.6 and free V. 0.98.2 stiil work rock solid.

[Neusan]

I wasn't going to intrude after surfing(?) here for a few years but it might be helpful. I registered but it's taken 5 days before I could post,so sorry if it's a bit late.This is from when 1.27.1 was released and in no way am I getting at Mr Dobbs as I've used this program for ages now and love it.

I've had to go back to 1.26.6 .
Installed 1.27.1 last week after 1.27.0 (which took an hour longer than normal and had the sound out of sync and stuttering),and started it up while I did some fiddling in other programs, including playing with Vista in Virtual PC.Came back to pc to find the blue screen so assumed that something else was wrong.Checked on the forum and found others had something funny happening as well.
Tried using it after reboot and it got partway through,before any encoding and it crashed..Next go it did the whole movie and then the system crashed..
Since then I've tried it with bitrate on/off,HC for redist.on/of and still it crashes the pc just sitting there doing nothing........!
These options I haven't used before, so wondered if they were affecting something,but as I just said I tried all settings back as I've used them before- default.One click mode.
I've got 1.26.6 sitting in the background now after using it earlier, so I'll leave it running and check if anything's happened before I go to bed.
Still no problem after 7 hours with 1.26.6.
Intel P4 3.4GHz, 2GB of ram. Xp Pro SP2. Normally rock solid.

Now have installed 1.27.2 and so far ok. Noticed after doing a test this morning that the cpu sits at 50% instead of running at 100% with HC.And it took a lot longer.

Now I'm not sure if these 2 builds were done with the same options selected,sorry.It's been a bit confusing here!!
If I can help I will,otherwise ignore me.Now do I push post....

[jdobbs]

I hate to rain on your parade... but something else is at work here. The time for encoding is dependent upon the encoder -- not DVD-RB. In fact for 90 plus percent of the time in encoding and building DVD-RB is simply idling waiting for the encoder to complete.

Post your REBUILDER.INI file so we can see your settings. Also:

1. What kind of processor are you using?
2. What other activities were happening at the time?
3. Were you reading directly from a disc via AnyDVD or was the read from the hard drive? This makes a BIG DIFFERENCE if you are running multiple instances. In fact it can take several times as long because of the slow seek time of DVD drives.
4. Do you have multiple processes selected? Do you have multiple processors?

My own personal experiences with v1.27.2 show no different speeds than previous versions.

as for:

in no way am I getting at Mr DobbsIt sure sounds different from where I sit.

[Neusan]

I apologize. I was wrong.

"The time for encoding is dependent upon the encoder -- not DVD-RB. In fact for 90 plus percent of the time in encoding and building DVD-RB is simply idling waiting for the encoder to complete."

I understand that now.Thanks.

I've run the 2 again and it is as you say.I must have selected the Best option for HC after installing 1.27.2.I still don't know why the cpu maxed out at 100% the last time I used HC on 1.26.6 before loading 1.27.2, as they both run at 50% now.But that's nothing to do with Reb.

I did not post to do harm.Thanks for your help and program.
