Thanks for the great apps DVD Rebuilder is great and has been for some time and I'm sure BD-RB will too. As a matter of fact I think it is now! I have done a BD-5 backup of 40 Year Old Virgin Movie only and all seems to go well meaning that the process completes successfully and plays on the puter just fine. I don't have a PS3 as yet but I do have a Philips BD7200/F7. Here in lies my problem. The 7200 doesn't play the TDK BD-5's I make and I don't have any other media at present. When the BD-5 is put into the 7200 the disc seems to load but nothing happens. The 7200 shows that it’s playing the disc but there is no time on the counter --:--. I have tried various settings with in ffdshow and BD-RB. If I check "Stricter AVCHD Compliance…" the player rejects it as not compatible, which the documentation confirms. Again I don't think it's the software but rather the player. Having said that, I tried v. 0.17.13 on a different movie, Eastern Promises and it works fine in the BD7200/F7 with the same media. The only obvious differences I see are that Eastern Promises has one track (MT2S) and the BDMV directory contains AUXDATA, BDJO, JAR, and META folders as do the backups of 40YOV with the exception of the "Stricter AVCHD Compliance…" attempt but 40YOVhas 21 tracks (MT2S). So, in summary I have successfully backed up a movie that plays on my Philips BD7200/f7 standalone with v. 0.17.13 but not with v. 0.18.07. Let me know if the logs would be useful and I will provide them. Thanks again, and we’ll keep at it.

So the last one works?

If you attempt to playback the .AC3 file alone (from the working directory) -- does it play the sound (sorry if I'm repeating anything -- I'm working a lot of separate issues simultaneously).

Both The Mummy, and Bourne bd-9 work fine in a pc or when the main movie stream is selected on a ps3.

Powerdvd reports the video as MPEG-4 AVC and the audio as DD 5.1 448kbps

and just for clarification TombRaider is fine and was included to show that the same settings work fine on different (non-Universal) source material.

ExtractAudioSubs error with 0.18.7

I tried another movie only to BD-25 for Eagle Eye and again got the extract audio error. I have tried the same with movie only and after going through the extras ok get the same Extract Audio Subs error when it gets to the subtitles. I'm not trying to eliminate any subtitles. I've even enabled the languages for each subtitle to see if that makes a difference and it does not.

Here is a screen shot of the stream selection:

That appears to be a "file already exists" error. It's trying to rename the audio file to the proper output name, and it already is there...

So how can I avoid that? I've made sure the "Workfiles" folder is deleted before starting the backup.

The Descent strange problem

I did a movie only conversion on region A The Descent and ended up with a picture in picture with the directors comentary I gather this is a selection problem, I am using .18.0.7.

Thanks

That is probably one of those titles that you might need to use the Alternate Movie-Only Playlist setting for. I did so on one of mine to ensure the correct size playlist was loaded into 0.18.07.......

Well, I just got Nick & Norah, Skips & Lock-ups on both the PS3 and the LG Player. Full BD Copy, LG BD-RE, I am going to try just a movie only rip with TSMuxer and see what happens there, just so I can get some clarification, its not the discs or something. Thanks guys!

A full backup is skipping? Is the symptom the same as reported earlier? And it's doing the same thing on a standalone player?

Hi jdobbs,

With all the bad (skipping) news going around, I thought that you could use some good news for a change... I just finished doing a couple movie-only high-quality encodes to BD-5 using v0.18.7 and they play perfectly on my Samsung BD-P2550 (using the Stricter AVCHD compliance setting). The quality of the movies is absolutely amazing seeing that they have been shrunk down to fit on a single-layer DVD. I can hardly tell the difference between the re-encodes and the originals (Hancock and The Dark Knight). Kudos to you!

Also, I ended up picking up a new Core i7 (920) machine (that's running a 64-bit version of the Windows 7 beta) and I can now pull movie-only encodes off in about 5 hours (or less). My old Core 2 Duo machine took 31 hours to do a movie-only encode of The Dark Knight and my new machine did it in just over 5. What a difference!

Keep up the great work!

BTW, I've done about 7 movie-only encodes so far using the various beta versions of BD-RB and I've yet to run into a single problem. I thought for sure that Hancock would give BD-RB problems seeing as the main movie is split into 11 different M2TS chunks, but it worked just fine (i.e. no skips or audio sync problems at all). Guess I've just been lucky with my movie choices. I'll keep plugging away at it though.

I think you're more lucky with your standalone choices... Thanks for the positive feedback. Of course X264 deserves most of the credit... great software.

Yea unfortunately JDobbs, I am getting skipping issues with FullBackUp on a PS3 and LG-300. At first the movie like freezes/pauses and the sound plays. Then shortly after words, it sorta stutters along like its on a fast forward mode and I get no sound. I used TSMuxer and did just a movie only copy I am gonna burn that to disc, and that way I should no if, its maybe the disc or the players. I am thinking its the program or the disc(s) though, because I did TSMuxer of The Incredible Hulk and dont have the stuttering issues.

I think the differences in various Blu-Ray players is going to be your biggest challenge. What appears to be a bug to one person, isn't an issue for someone with a different player. I would have never guessed there to be such a broad range of "standards" among different brands or even models within brands. Hopefully, time will cure that ill.

This is why many are opting to build their own BD play back units by building an HTPC. One of the nice things about an HTPC solution is that there are few if any compatibility issues to contend with. Not only can one check their reencode before burning it by playing back and ISO, but virtually all burns are compatible even if they won't play in a standalone player.

That of course is my two cents.

jdobbs,

Just wanted to say great work on this app! Before this came out, I was pulling extras out of BD50s & trying to fit them on BD25s. I've done about 10 full movie rips to DVD+R DL & a couple movie only rips & they all look awesome w/out any problems. I do have one request, I know its not that big a priority for you. Are there any plans for a HD (untouched) audio option? Even if it's just for BD25s, having a TrueHD or DTS HD MA track would be amazing! Hopefully, that will turn up in a future version of this wonderful app. Thanks again...

brogan,

I may be wrong but in setup you have the option within the audio not to reencode to ac3. It says dts to ac3 but I think it just leaves the audio untouched.

Are you saying that playback quality on a HTPC is as good as stand alone or PS3? If so, could you give me an idea of the hardware specs. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure it downsamples to DD or DTS...can someone confirm? As far as I know, you can't shrink a BD50 to BD25 & keep the TrueHD or DTS-HD MA stream...if I'm wrong, someone please correct me...
