I think I might have found a bug. It is only with extras that are 480 and 4:3. When they are played back in my PS3 they are streched out to 16:9. I have done this on two different computers and get the same results. I tried redoing them by copying the lastcmd file and changing the SAR from 8:9 to 10:11. When doing that they stay 4:3 when played back on the PS3. Can someone else that has a PS3 check and see if they have 4:3 extras being stretched to 16:9.

Are you preprocessing at all? Any editing or tweaking? What are you using to rip the discs? Last edited by jdobbs; 19th July 2009 at 15:04. |

This problem has been known since way back hasn't it(?) Did you ever find an actual solution to this as I don't think the problem was ever tackled. It got bought up a few times but then conversation always moved on to something else. I haven't tried DVD9 backups for any Universal titles since I got a BD writer but before that I did experience this exact problem (silence with no audio\subs selectable on BD9 backups) for "The Matrix". FTR that was with no tweaking\pre processing. I even mentioned this in the list of players that support BDRB etc a few months ago. Unless something has changed since then and it should now be working? |

I now do full movie backups to BD-RE and BD-R, and they are almost always perfect. I do movie only backups to BD-5, and have never had a failure yet! |

Completely different, he's talking about Universal titles ONLY where the video DOES play but there is no audio\subtitles and pressing anything on the remote won't let you switch them on. It's as if they aren't there. Your issue is a common one for panasonic players where to fix it you have to turn OFF 24p playback on the player. I can't comment on the PowerDVD situation since I experience a similar quirk where a fair few discs just come up with a black screen. But I have noticed in the past that these discs are often fixed by downloading the latest PowerDVD update for your version. |

Have you experienced it? I did find some things in the STN tables that may be associated with this -- so maybe the new version (see below) will have an effect. Don't know, though, since it works okay for me either way. Last edited by jdobbs; 19th July 2009 at 18:26. |

BD Rebuilder v0.25.02 (beta)
I've posted a new version for download on the first post of this thread. Lots of changes. The one-pass should be pretty accurate now (I finally gave up on the .stats approach, it was just too random, and borrowed some code from DVD Rebuilder). Here is a summary of the changes for this version:
Code:
- Replaced the prediction algorithm for one-pass encoding. It now does prediction passes until it finds the correct CRF. This should be much more accurate - but please remember it may take slightly more time and is still experimental. Note: On very small sources it can be faster to do a first pass than to predict CRF. When BD-RB's analysis indicates this to be the case, a two-pass encode will be done, even when one-pass mode is selected. - Corrected issues found in update of MPLS STN tables for secondary audio and video streams. - Made changes to secondary audio processing that should make DD+ PiP tracks start working. Note: you must have "PROCESS_SECONDARY=1" set in INI. - Updated X264 to r1183, this new version includes speed improvements and other fixes/enhancements. - Made changes to all X264 command lines to make BD-RB compatible with new defaults starting in X264 r1179. This means that BD-RB now requires X264 version r1179 or higher. - Added "--ipratio 1.1 --pbratio 1.1" to the encoding command line to lessen "pulsing" on sources that are very highly compressed. - Added code to recognize and workaround encoding issues on very small sources. - Changed "Quick Encode for Extras" so it is ON by default. Most encode will benefit with faster completion. - Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes. 23.976fps sources (default is 4800/48): SAMPLE_GROUP=4800 SAMPLE_SIZE=96 25fps sources (default is 5000/50): SAMPLE_GROUP=5000 SAMPLE_SIZE=100 29.97fps sources (default is 6000/60): SAMPLE_GROUP=6000 SAMPLE_SIZE=120 You can also tweak the sizing with: CRF_ADJUST=n.n Legal values are .1 through 2.0, the default is .96. Very low values will probably crash. It adjusts the target size for CRF, the .96 is to allow 4% for inaccuracy. It's likely that .97 or .98 would probably be ok for a 2% sample. If you oversize because you've changed this value, though -- don't be surprised, and don't complain to me! I'm also tweaking the algorithm that determines the number of prediction passes, so you may see some improvements there in upcoming versions. Last edited by jdobbs; 19th July 2009 at 18:59. |

Just for a point of reference, I reported this way back at the beginning. Also reported after testing the same disc with the Sony S301 that jdobbs has that it played perfectly. I still have the DVD-R disc, and I have tested it after the last few firmware updates for my BX1 to see if it may work, but still no luck.

I'm just happy with all these options!! Thanks jdobbs. |
