I've read all your posts and I got to tell ya, I'm clueless to this. I don't know how to check, but if you tell me, I'll know.

Wait...with a little common sense, I might have this fingered out.

00287.m2ts...mediainfo says AVC.

[turbojet]

OK can you open the m2ts with graphstudio and let us know what decoder loads (ffdshow/coreavc/cyberlink/ etc.)

[bobrap]

That m2ts file will not render in graphstudio. The previous one will. Tried to play the file in TMT and it's a green screen. I guess bad rip.

I'm not saying you guys are wrong I just think it goes a lot deeper then it being tsmuxer to blame, could the people having issues post MPC-HC build, output method and decoder?

From the MPC-HC ChangeLog - v1.2.908.0 - 30.Nobember 2008

Am going to uninstall and do a new install to check.
Codecs and splitters installed work are pretty common to all apps used and work across the board, but then, who knows what might have gotten corrupted.

I also haven't experienced issues with PowerDVD 8 on about 15 encodes I've done so far with v0.20.01.

jdobbs I see from changelog it doesn't look like it but I want to make sure. Is there any reason to check sizing in v0.20.02 over v0.20.01?

No. This update was mainly because of a correction I put in the fixclpi portion and to back TSMUXER to the older version (because of the reports I've receive here and from other sources, it is obvious I didn't do enough testing before that change). I also made some other minor changes, but nothing that would affect sizing.

I have, though, done quite a bit of testing with muxing/sizing in the past few days -- and I have to tell you that whoever has given you the impression that there is consistency in this process is misinformed. Yes, X264 is pretty accurate in its sizing. But, I have some sources that use as little as 4.5% overhead when muxed, and others (usually smaller) that hit as high as 12.5%. I'm sure there's a magic formula out there somewhere, but it's not something I've been able to put my arms around.

@All

Please stop asking about keeping original audio. How many posts does it take? I've heard you, I've answered you, I get the point, I'll get it done. End of story. It's not as simple as you all would imply, and some of it requres a TSMUXER version that has other issues. It also makes it harder for me to debug the basic portions of BD-RB, which where I am concentrating right now. All for keeping audio streams that in many cases aren't even supported by the most popular players.

Bottom line: Be patient. Continually pinging me about it isn't going to raise its priority, it's just getting me annoyed.

[turbojet]

bobrap: could you cut 5-10 seconds or so of the m2ts and upload to a place like sendspace

jdobbs: Panasonic BD30 played BD-RB v0.20.01 movie only without fix_clpi=0 just fine.

Ya I see the same inconsistency sizing, atak posted RipBot264's formula which I've never had a problem with on sizing since dts was fixed back in may.

With the subtitle issue on the shifted subs it also shows in suprip with a lot of black in the screen.

Here is a screenshot from the retail

The aligned subs show up in suprip covering the whole pic (very little black).

Also BDSup2Sub shifts things the same.

What does the following error message indicate?

- [14:55:07] PredictAndEncode() 00006 3

It means I've gotten an overflow error on a variable in section 3 of the encoding routine. It's the section where I calculate the amount of space required by the audio so I can determine the bitrate for the video. What disc are you seeing this on? Also, what are your settings for audio (keeping the original, default, 640Kbs AC3)?

[setarip_old]

What disc are you seeing this on?

It was a snippet (for test purposes) of "The Santa Clause 3" (Another problematic, for me) VC-1.

Also, what are your settings for audio (keeping the original, default, 640Kbs AC3)?

Retained original.

I have tested a couple with 20.01 on a Panasonic DMP-BD55 and no problems. I am not sure about FIX_CLPI=0 I just used the default settings and it worked fine.

i have a panasonic standalone the dmp-bd30 and it play's all menu and movie a like

chefkoch_ico: what program are you mounting with? what powerdvd 8 version?

I use Virtual Clone Drive (Beta Version from Slysoft) and PowerDVD 8 Ultra Build 2521 (newest Build).

Hello,

I'm having a little issue when trying to use the latest version of BD Rebuilder...attempting to convert a 28.4 GB Blu-ray (full movie) to a DVD-9...I get an error: Target is too small to continue
And the application says that the BD is 84.48 GB! No idea what the problem is, I've converted several movies w/out any issues at all...I tried the previous version of Rebuilder & I get the same issue...has anyone seen this or am I doing something wrong?? Thanks

I've had that happen before. What I did was change the location of the source file folder, or rename it and then it usually reads the correct file size.

That's weird. BD-RB scans the source directory to get the size.

Any way someone could give me an example of a path that causes the sizing issue? Also, please make sure there aren't any other files in the path. BD-RB assumes everything under the source path is a part of the BD, not just the BDMV and CERTIFICATE folders. I use NTFS in my sources on HD, I assume others are keeping with NTFS (except, of course, direct reads from the disc). I'm trying to decide whether limiting myself to those two folders would result in any other issues. When I copy to HD that's all I transfer.

[Elesias]

Ok.

I always use "x264 encoder" (FFMPEG is greyed out), "Highest Quality", and "Target BD25".
I choose "Movie only backup" with no alternate or subtitles options.

In "Setup", I check "Stricter AVCHD Compliance for movie only" & Trellis Algorithm.

I burn either with Nero or ImgBurn, UDF 2.50, the BDMV & CERTIFICATE folders.
The movie seems to start fine, but I get only sound : no picture at all with my BD-35 (euro firmware 1.3)

When I try to read the M2TS with Windows Media Player, everything works perfectly, sound and picture alike. Did I miss something ?

[jdobbs]

What version are you using. Make sure it is v0.20.2, because there was apparently some issue introduced in v0.20.1 with the new TSMUXER. I've backed into the older TSMUXER with the latest one.
