As I reported, I'm having a similar issue. I backed up Shining as "Movie Only". It played well in PS3 but did not played in Denon BD-3800. It appeared a black screen although the disk was recognized as BD and the audio is playing.

Jddobs: What should I try to help debug this issue with this player?

GaPony · 20th January 2009, 03:50

We found that removing the AUXDATA folder (inside the BDMV folder), before burning the disc with ImgBurn made "Movie Only" copies work with some other players, and they retained playability in the PS3. You don't have to reencode anything...just delete that one folder and burn.

This probably won't work if you have several smaller branching .m2ts files which make up the movie. The only luck I had with those movies was to pre-process them to combine them into a single file.

I hope this helps...

double image!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just encoded on 2 pass at high quality from a mkv converted to a Blu Ray disc with tsMuxerGUI. The audio is great but I am getting a double image.
The movie I am showing is different then what I encoded but looks the same.
My Blu Ray is a Sony s350

This can happen if the original source is not Blu-ray compliant 1920x1080 or 1280x720.

I Realise This Isn't A Bug But I Thought You Wouldn't Mind My Calling On Your Expertise... I Successfully Remuxed A DTS Audio Track (Converted From PCM) Back Into A Blu-Ray Movie With It Working And Chapter Select Still Works But Seems To Be Of By One... Chapter 2 = 1 And Chapter 15=14 Etc... Any Idea How I Can Correct That? Any Help Is Much Appreciated And

Again.

There seems to be an issue with 'My Best Friend's Girl'... It is a seamless branched BD and has been the only one that BD-RB hasn't been able to encode correctly for me.

I joined all the m2ts files together with TSSplitter, then remuxed with TSMuxer (also tried it with TSRemux) into Bluray format while stripping unwanted audio and PGS streams. And the output from either of those apps has played and looked flawless on my harddrive. BD-RB however seems unable to encode itcorrectly. There are multiple scenes where a blurry blotch appears for split seconds thru-out the BD-RB output (both from the HDD or from the BD-9). Also this title has been the only one that plays the subtitles in wrong sequence.

I've redone this movie several times and each time it has these problems 'after' encoding thru BD-RB... and at the same exact spots every time. So for whatever reason, this title is giving BD-RB fits.

Can't do it from the full Bluray rip because it has 25 2ts files making up the movie, thus gives me the multiple instances of FFDShow and Matroska, which leads to out of memory error.

Anyone else did this Bluray?
It's the only title that I haven't been successful on yet with BD-RB.

Version 0.18.02

I've posted a new version of BD Rebuilder in the first post of this thread. I think it corrects most of the issues reported in this thread. But... I made a LOT of changes, so there is a high likelihood that we may find something new. Please remember to post them only in this thread. Thanks.

Important note: This version requires AVISYNTH 2.57 or above. It will warn you and close itself it you don't have it installed.

Here are the changes made in this version:

Code:

January 20th, 2008 - v0.18.2
- PLEASE NOTE:  Starting with this version, BD Rebuilder
  REQUIRES AVISYNTH v2.57 or above. If you do not have it 
  installed, please download it from: 
  http://www.jdobbs.net/freeware/Avisynth_257.exe
  and install it.  BD-RB will not work with older
  versions of AVISYNTH.
- Improved command line settings used for QUICK encodes.
- Corrected error in QUICK encoding routine that
  could result in oversizing (particularly on
  series and extra discs).
- Corrected an error that could cause "Runtime Error 6"
  when encoding audio.
- Added code to catch errors during audio reencoding.
- Added a checkbox in SETUP to make AC3 reencodes
  default to 640Kbs rather than 448Kbs.
- Updated quality selection.  There are now four levels
  based on recommendations from Dark Shikari. Now uses
  "ENCODE_QUALITY=" parameter in INI file.
- Added a warning/restriction when source path lengths
  are too long (previously caused oversizing).
- Corrected an error that would cause "Runtime Error 9"
  on certain discs with multiple story paths (angles).
- Completely rewrote the movie-only handling routines to
  correct issues with certain multi-path/angle sources
  that had huge numbers of components and could cause
  BD-RB to crash with out-of-memory errors.
- Added code to correct the "snap" sound in WAV files
  resulting from demuxing via TSMUXER.
- Added chapter calculation to movie-only mode.  Now the
  chapters will match those in the original playlist.
- Added the ability to select from alternate playlists. 
  This is especially useful for series discs and discs
  with more than one version of a film. Note: You can
  select only from playlists of least 15 mins.
- Added traps to catch muxing errors that could result
  in "Runtime Error 76 - path not found".
- Corrected "Runtime Error 424".
- Fixed an error related to audio (especially LPCM) that
  could cause errors in "ReencodeAudio()" routine.
- Fixed several issues in related to reecoding/keeping 
  audio streams that could result in the wrong type code 
  being set in the MPLS file.  This could result in
  silent playback.
- Made calculation changes to help prevent oversizing
  under certain conditions when audio is kept intact.
- Added a SETUP option that makes what appears to be a
  more strictly compliant output (AVCHD) for the movie-
  only option.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

Hi!

I am doing a Full backup with the new version 0.18.02 of Starship Troopers, german release.

My main movie (the video) is only approx 1m43s long. I checked the AVS file created, and in it lies the problem:

Quote:

#Created by BD Rebuilder - v0.18.2 (beta)
DirectshowSource("G:\BDMV\STREAM\00009.m2ts", fps=23.976, framecount=2473, audio=false)
ConvertToYV12()

Why is that?

Since the AVS scripts are overwritten when starting again, I also cannot change it myself.

When I remove the framecount parameter, the AVS plays with full length.

Bye

jdobbs · 20th January 2009, 19:55

I discovered that DirectShowSource() was dropping at least one frame on each segment. That becomes very problematic and cause out-of-sync audio when a title might contain numerous segments (M2TSs) in movie-only (e.g. Ratatouille). The way to fix it is by setting it to the correct value in the AVS file.

Capture the screen and post it so I can see what you mean by "the main movie" -- also capture the screen with the menu down shown where you can select MPLS files.

MvB · 20th January 2009, 19:56

Bd-Rebuilder selects an obscure mpeg2-Stream@480i with 1.50h length and 5GB size as main movie, but the main movie is 25GB and AVC (mpeg4) and 1080p. Unfortunately it's not possible to select the main movie manually. Is there a possibility to do main movie only for this disk?

Thanks
MvB

jdobbs · 20th January 2009, 19:59

It is possible to select the main movie manually if you are using the latest version. The main-movie is selected by total size (in hours and minutes) -- there really is no other way to do it. Which version of BD-RB are you using?

jdobbs · 20th January 2009, 20:03

Version 0.18.03

I just did another update to the first post of this thread. Here is an updated change list for v0.18.02/03:

Code:

January 20th, 2008 - v0.18.3
- Fixed an error in which empty folders that should be
  removed in AVCHD mode were not being correctly removed.

January 20th, 2008 - v0.18.2
- PLEASE NOTE:  Starting with this version, BD Rebuilder

Is that, what you mean?

Yep. That's obviously a problem. I'm checking it out.

jdobbs · 20th January 2009, 21:00

I can't seem to repeat it with any of my discs. I'll have to pick that one up. Is this the new one or the original "Starship Troopers"?

This is something that I have experienced. As Capsbackup wrote,

Quote:

you have to make sure your source Blu-ray stream is compliant.
After reading thru many threads on different forums, I found out that the workarounds were either to re-encode adding borderss to any video streams that are not 720p or 1080p OR using BDedit + a hex editor to change the vertical res to 720p or 1080p.
BD Rebuilder will then encode the streams correctly and there will not be any double images.

Link to the writeup and needed software is http://brothers_grim.webs.com/bd/index.html

BDedit thread here on doom9 is http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=125903

Good luck.

James

jdobbs · 20th January 2009, 21:24

If you're backing up a BD -- how can the source be non-compliant with BD? Are these home-grown?

Its the original Starship Troopers. Is there a file on the disc, that could help you analysing?

Jdobbs, quick note he has the German version and not the US version.

Thanks GaPony. I deleted the Auxdata folder as suggested and Denon BD-3800 refuses to load the disc. First, it is recognized as DVD and soon after that a legend appear saying "Disc Error. Playback feature may not be available on this disc".

Just to let you know, with AUXDATA, disc is recognized as BD and it play but only audio with black screen. Movie Only.

Jdobbs: Do you want me keep posting this error in this thread? Do you think the player is not accepting a BD disc into a DVD-5 disc? Do you think the new BD-RB version could make a difference?
