BD Rebuilder Beta - Bug Reports Only

[jdobbs]

I ran into a similar situation with National Treasure.

I selected movie only, english DTS-HD MA, and english subtitle.
In the BD-RB settings I selected to extract DTS core and not keep HD audio.

Video + DTS Core + Subtitle would just fit BD-25 with no re-encode.

But BD-RB still did a re-encode of video even though with the DTS core it would of fit a BD-25. I increased the custom size and it worked.

Does BD-RB make the final size calculation with the DTS core or the DTS-HD MA track?



Edit: I guess it could be possible the movie was above the BD-25 defined size in BD-RB but it would actually fit a BD-25 disc. It does the calculation with either the extracted track (when keeping original) or with the bitrate of the AC3 track (when reencoding). Whether it uses the core or the HD when keeping original depends upon what you have selected. It also does the calculation against each M2TS individually.

I just redid one of the movies that got DD2 with 0.36.02 with the 0.36.03 version when choosing alternate output MKV. It still gets encoded to DD2 from DD5.1.

When i check the workfiles directory the original AC3 is DD5.1 and the encoded, and the one muxed into the MKV, is DD2. Not sure if the logfile helps but here it is anyway.

@Paddy97

It appears there was another area of the code that was restricting output to DD2.0 as well. I've fixed it for the next release.

Thanks for the great support and quality of the software. Just sent you another donation to show my appreciation.

I've updated the first post of this thread with a link to the latest release of BD-RB (v0.35.04). Changes for this version:- Added code to assert the "fake-interlaced" switch
in X264 when encoding interlaced sources when the
"Use DECOMB filter..." SETUP option has been
selected. This can improve encode quality.
- Added a new routine that does an extended scan
prior to encoding MPEG-2 480i sources to detect
hybrid video characteristics. This should clear
up any remaining reports of audio sync problems
on certain MPEG-2 sources.
- Updated the MKV ALTERNATE support so that audio
can be reencoded to DD5.1 (prior to this release
all audio was stereo). In order to activate you
must set the bitrate in ALTERNATE.TXT to 384Kbs
or higher (with audio type set to AC3). Two new
examples have been included.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the
latest release (r1788).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

@jdobbs I did that one as a full backup and still have it on BD-RE. I hadn't tried the PiP. I'll check it out tomorrow morning. Any findings regarding this? (DVD9 behavior on SONY 360)

BTW - Is there a target date for DTSExpress?

[SquallMX]

Is normal for a BD-Rebuilder Output to change the PID number of the Secondary Audio track?

I trying to backup How to Train Your Dragon (US Release), and the PID for the PiP changes from 1A00 to 1106, this causes bad audio with TotalMedia Theater (the Dubs tracks are mixed with the PiP track, English Lossless is unaffected, I going to burn a BD-RW to test it on a PS3)

Evening all.

I have a problem while encoding `An Idiot Abroad' 2disc TV Series in the UK.

Everything encodes fine on the video front, but when played the menu buttons wont activate, so the BD cant be watched at all. Then menu comes up, but just with no buttons at all..

Any ideas?

[omegaman7]

What player are you using? Is it a BD-RE? I've had DVD+/-RW's behave that way in one of my dvd players...

Any ideas? Have you changed the MIN_M2TS_SIZE? That's usually the cause of that. Some menus have in-stream IGS -- and TSMUXER doesn't support it. I'm working on that in the same module as DTS Express remuxing.

[micflair]

Nah guys Ive not changed anything in the settings, or my type of media or player etc. Have tried it a couple of times to no avail now, wah!

Its just a standard BD-R mate and Im playing it in the PS3..

[omegaman7]

Perhaps bad rip then? Bad rips can cause some strange behaviors as well. Was the disc highly encrypted? I've heard people speak about bad pressed dvd discs acting strangely. I'd imagine BD media is no different in this respect.

When you say have I changed it.. do you mean I should change it or not from the default settings? I see its set at 100mb, I have a couple of really small files in the bdmv/stream folder so Ill change it to something daft like 1meg and see what happens.. also if it makes any difference the bluray is 1080i and not 1080p..

If you change it, you'd want to go in the other direction (higher). Look at the size of the file containing the menu -- and go a little higher than that. Then it will keep that file intact so it won't be processed and it will retain the in-mux IGS track.

My experience is this does work for BD-R/RE full backups, but does not work for BD5/9 full backups. My guess is AVCHD needs to have the files reencoded to meet the AVCHD standard.
This is why some original discs of mine will just have to wait until you implement IGS and DTS Express remux! :p :cool:
( patiently waiting too. :) )

This happens to me too... but thats just in my everyday life! :o

I recognize that a tsMuxeR update would make things much easier. But since that does not appear to be likely, and with your track record of proven software programs that I have used, IFOUpdate and of course DVDRebuilder, my confidence remains with your capabilities! :)
As I have said, I am still having fun with it all. :D

Hi there, i have a problem with the movie "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood prince", I did a full backup but the weird thing is that BD-Rebuilder doesn't show any error, it just says thats everything went perfect, but when i reproduce the movie in my pc the spanish audio doesn't hear very well, it sounds paused and sometimes slow, so what might be the problem? some settings to change? thanks

I'm having muxing problems with Toy Story 3 nordic, the Swedish playlist (to get swedish titles) when choosing alternate output to MKV. It works OK when i choose the english playlist on the same disc. Also if i remux the swedish playlist to a bluray structure with just one m2ts it works OK. So I'm guessing that its something with the many files in the playlist. See the logfiles and other info.

I am posting the logfile, ini file and inf file from DVDrebuilder as a link. The forum complained that the 24K long post was to big. Hope this is allright.

http://fenrisulven.storage.s3.amazonaws.com/DVDRebuild.rar Let me make sure I understand. If you are outputting the Swedish playlist to a movie-only M2TS it works -- but if going to an MKV if fails. Correct? All setting the same except the ALTERNATE output?

Also, I see you've created your own profile "MKV Container, 1280x720, 640Kbs DD5.1" -- can you post the contents of that profile from ALTERNATE.TXT (just to be sure I'm testing with the same settings)?

BTW, it's BD Rebuilder, not DVD Rebuilder...

Sorry for being unclear.

Using alternate output to MKV in all cases.

If i output the swedish playlist from original disk it's not working.
If I output the english playlist from original disk its working
If I remux the swedish playlist to a single file playlist and use that as source it's working.

No mate sorry forgot to say, im going to BD-25. The size of the original menu video is about 480meg, so I set the MIN thingy to 600meg and set it off.. it still re did it tho and made it down to 48meg.. grr! haha

You need to make sure you put the wording in correctly and in the right place. Example:
Below [Options]
MIN_M2TS_SIZE=600
If you check BD-RB files to reencode from the list, the files less than this size will not be present.

[apophis906]

I have noticed a problem with Santa Clause 3 and with the new collectors edition of Avatar. They both have some playlist that reference parts of a larger clip. When its rebuilt the new playlist will start at the right spot, but the end time will be changed to the end of the clip instead of whatever the original length it should have been. So what should be say one minute can have a length of an hour instead.

Yeah triple checked that mate to no avail, everything is in correct and no matter what I put as the setting being 600 or 1 theres always 2 files there at 112mb and 487mb waiting to encoded grr..

Hmm, just noticed though that the 2 files are MPEG-2 and not MPEG-4.. all the others are MPEG-4 at 9gig a file.. hmmm

Hey jdobbs i have a new problem :devil:

My standard settings:

BD25
Quicker Encode for Extras
High Quality (default) 2pass

It's the new Inception BluRay, but i've the same problems with Harry Potter 1+2 Extended.

So the main movie is splitted in some m2ts Files.
BD_Rebuilder encodes some main movie m2ts files as extras, so they will be just 1pass encoded.
So the quality is bad, some parts of the movie are pixelated because of 1pass encoding.

Can i just fix this problem if i remove the Quicker Encode for Extras option?

Or is this a bug of BD_Rebuilder and u can fix it?

jdobbs you've been doing a great job here ! Cheers mate !

Straight to the point: I've been doing great BD-9 "movie only" copies with BD-Rebuilder.

But now I want to make a BD-25 full backup of region A "Toy Story 3", keeping just one DTS-MA english and AC3 5.1 portuguese audio tracks and english and portuguese subs.

Can anybody tell me the best settings to do so ?

[KeVe1983]

That should be impossible. If the files are a part of the main feature playlist they should be encoded with the same quality. Inception hasn't been released here yet, so I can't check that one -- but I've done both of the other two (unless there is a new release of them) and they had no issue for me.

Sry, but the Source isn't corrupted!
I have ripped the movie 2 times again with Fab and Any.
All play fine on my PC and my Dune HD.

So here are some pictures:

00004.m2ts is a part of the Main Movie and you can see that this1 is just 1pass encoded.

http://s7.directupload.net/images/101126/temp/4vpg9o9p.jpg (http://s7.directupload.net/file/d/2355/4vpg9o9p_jpg.htm)

And here you can see the comparsion between the original, 1pass encode (quicker enc. f. extras enabled) and the 2pass encode (quicker enc. f. extras disabled)
Left is the original, middle1 is the 1pass encode and the right1 is the 2pass encode with Quicker encode for Extras Option disabled

[jdobbs]

Like I said... nothing I can do until it is released in the U.S. But, honestly, I have my doubts...

Try opening the rip in movie-only mode. If 00004.m2ts isn't in the list, then it isn't a part of the feature playlist. By the way, there are lots of situations in which 1 pass encoding is used even for the main feature. It all depends on your "Quality" settings. But since you didn't post any of your logs or config files (as I always ask), I can't determine anything useful related to your bug report.

Can anybody tell me the best settings to do so ? Use the defaults, they are set as "default" precisely because they are the best settings to use. :)

I think I had similar problem yesterday.
When I input blu-ray into bd-rb, the main movie was not expanded, it was an extra video file.

my setting ARE BD-25,, HIGH QUALITY, 2 -PASS.

I'm just used to seeing the main movie always expanded from the Stream list. This was the first time the main movie was not, just one of the extras.
Do you think the main movie was still encoded as the main movie?
The movie was Expendables.

Hi!

You've nothing to worry about, if you've selected full disc copy and did NOT select "Quick extras" (or whatever that wording is).

BD-RB, as well as virtually any other conversion and/or ripping program will typically presume that the LARGEST individual file is the "main movie". In the case of "The Expendables", the largest individual file (6+Gb) is, in fact, an "Extras" files - while the main movie is comprised of multiple, smaller files...

Hi! seta rip :)
I did have "Quicker" Encode for extras selected.. I will re-do it with it NOT selected.
Thanks a lot for that info, I overlooked it. It will probably take twice as long, luckily this is not the norm :D
Good day...

The movie was Expendables. That can happen, not very often, but it can happen. There actually is no way of positively telling which playlist is the feature since there is no flag on the disc saying "I'm the main movie", so BD-RB makes a best guess. In most cases it chooses the largest playlist. But, when you have two that are within about 10 minutes of each other (in length) it will choose the second largest (so it will default to the "standard" version rather than "extended" when both are present.

If you have an extra that is larger than the feature -- it is possible it could be picked for movie-only. When that happens, you just select a different playlist.
