BD Rebuilder Beta - Bug Reports Only

[jdobbs]

The target settings won't disappear -- they will just be ignored/overridden during the encode.

I just tested it. I think I see the source of the confusion. The text saying "Performing CRF prediction" is still showing in the log. That is incorrect. It is actually encoding the orignal at that point. I'll correct that for the next release.

Thanks a lot for the answer. I will check and report you back.

Alternate output mode:
iPad MP4 HD, 1024x768/576, 128Kbs AAC; crf=22
gives an x264 warning:
MB rate (115200) > level limit (108000)

Do I have to change settings?

[jdobbs]

I'm not familiar with that warning -- you may want to ask about it in the X264 subforum.

I've noticed on the x264 command line BDR uses for 480i 16:9 SD 720x480 sources:
--sar 40:33
but that sar setting is apparently for a 704x480 resolution.

I believe the correct sar settings for 720x480 resolution titles are:
sar 32:27 for 16:9 720x480
sar 8:9 for 4:3 720x480

The current sar settings may cause a slight error in displayed aspect ratio, for a 16:9 720x480 SD title of 1.82 instead of 1.78(16:9)

I've updated the first post of this thread with links to a new version of BD-RB (v0.40.08). Changes for this release:

- Made several improvements to the subtitle resizing
  routines to provide a more accurate representation
  of the original PGS when resizing video output.
- Corrected a bug that could cause subtitle resizing
  to fail under some rare circumstances.
- Added support for subtitle muxing in ALTERNATE
  output to MKV.  This feature is enabled by adding 
  a new hidden option MKV_MUXSUPS=1 to the INI file 
  (see HIDDENOPTS.TXT).  Note:  This feature muxes 
  .SUP files in Blu-ray format. SUP formatted 
  subtitles are not supported in all MKV players. 
  Please check your MKV player's specifications.
- Corrected a problem that could result in audio
  desynchronization when converting to PAL under
  certain circumstances.
- Added a new hidden option DISABLE_VIDEO_SLEEP.
  This will prevent video card sleep mode, and may
  be useful when running jobs overnight while using
  DGDecNV with some video cards.
- Corrected a problem in which subtitles created by
  TSMUXER from text-type sources failed to be muxed
  and resized properly into ALTERNATE/DVD output.
- Corrected an error in which adjusting for an audio
  delay would cause ALTERNATE/MKV multiplexing to
  fail and BD-RB to abort.
- Corrected a reporting error in which "Performing
  CRF prediction" is displayed in the log even when
  a fixed CRF is being applied (and not prediction
  is actually performed).
- Updated the included version of MKVMERGE.EXE to
  the latest release (v5.3.0.0).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

See this post for explanation of why the current values are used.

Thank you! Testing...

To all:

A reminder: Do not report any bugs on sources that have been preprocessed. If the original has been modified in any way it is preprocessed. If you remove adverts with another package -- it is preprocessed. If you make a little change with another package -- it has been preprocessed. If you decide to "make a change that has not impact anything" with BDEDIT -- it is preprocessed.

I really don't like spending hours trying to find a bug (that I can't repeat) only to discover that it has probably been introduced by some other package during preprocessing (especially when the fact wasn't revealed to me until after I'd spent a considerable amount of time on it).

Much better, although not competing for the Oscar for best subtitle.

I recently backed up How To Train Your Dragon and viewers have indicated the audio goes out of sync near the middle. I used Imgburn to create an ISO of the AnyDVDHD ripped structure and when mounted and played, the audio is IN sync thru-out. Unfortunately I can't do much with a 38GB ISO. This has apparently been an issue with other software similar to BD-Rebuilder. I won't mention the Fab product directly...

A couple thousand encodes with BD-RB so far and none are out-of-sync. Follow the instructions to the letter in the first post of this thread and it works every time. Anything can happen, I guess, but most of the time sync issues come right back to configuration.

JDobbs, could you please post the # of the thread that mentions the instructions? Thanks

That would be the first post (#1) as he said

I have carried out a test and it looks OK. Thanks for all.

I just ran a couple of batch jobs in a row while I went out and I no longer received the DGDecNV error when moving to the next job after the display went to sleep. This option is greatly appreciated!!!

Anyone else tried to do full backup of Transformers 3 disc 2 to BD25? Interested to hear how it worked out for others, especially the multi-angle sequences.

It's happening when BD-RB is trying to do a simple directory scan. Is this drive unusual in any way? Is it a USB drive, network drive, etc? The 00055 isn't the issue -- that one is just a spinoff of the real error which is 00009.
