BD Rebuilder Beta - Bug Reports Only

[jdobbs]

It's gotta be something different in your version of DGIndexNV or your video card. I did notice that when I tell DGIndexNV to list my GPU devices it says "Symmetric multiprocessors 1" -- what does yours say?

[Ch3vr0n]

@Jdobbs:

I'm back.

I'm using the latest build available 2048 of DGIndexNV

My card is this one specifically http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/GTX680DC2O2GD5/

List GPU Devices shows this

>0: "GeForce GTX 680"
Compute 3.0 (using sm_30)
Memory 2049 MB
L2 Cache 524288 bytes
Symmetric multiprocessors 8 <==
Processor Clock 1084Mhz
Memory bus width 256 bits
GPU/PureVideo version GK104/VP5

AVC: cuvid
MPG: cuda
VC1: cuvid

---

VID_00260 launched only 1 DGIndexNV process, 1 x264 process
VID_00262 launched 2 DGIndexNV processes, 2nd one fires up a few seconds after the first one and both processor loads fluctuate between 01 and 08% and memory size for both fluctuate as well. So neither of them is "hung". They're both actively busy.

So i checked in workfiles and i see this during extraction

00262.track_4113.264
00262.track_6912.264
VID_00262.DGI
VID_00262_2.DGI <==

00262.track_4352.ac3
00262.track_4356.ac3
00262.track_6656.dts

If there's anything i can do i'd be happy to do it. But beyond providing the info, cuda etc is beyond me. Maybe neuron2 will be able to help you

@jdobbs, @Ch3vr0n
If I may offer

I too have a GTX 680.
My GPU devices is similar to Ch3vr0n.
DGDecNV is 2048

With MULTIPROCESS=0 I only get one instance of DGIndexNV.

[Ch3vr0n]

but is it the same one? I just made sure it's not disc related. I fired up Clash_OF_THE_TITANS which is a seamless transition DTS-E Enabled disc. Extraction goes fine, so does encoding of secondary video and main video. Weirdly enough the first vid multiplexed just fine too. I'll let it complete and see if i encounter that "failed to build issue" somewhere down the line

So the multi-DGIndexNV is definitely not disc limited, damn weird issue and not consistent either. titles 2 & 3 for clash, did not trigger a multi-dgindexnv but those parts did not have a dts-express stream in them. So it's definitely DTS-Express video stream related.

[gonca]

no and no.
If it helps I'll check to see if I have that movie and test.
My card is a ZOTAC

[DarWun]

100%, I'd be happy to run it again.

FYI I recently had the same issue with Hellboy II which also has a DTS Express Stream. With DGDecNV 2048 and multi-process enabled, the rebuild failed. I had no issues when I switched to LAVF. I didn't try DGDecNV with multi-process disabled.

[Ch3vr0n]

Sounds weird maybe but AWESOME! This means its not an issue confined to my system!

[gonca]

Just checked with the movie that you were encoding, Ch3vr0n, and I can confirm 2 instances of DGIndexNV with MULTIPROCESS=0 on the main m2ts file.

[Ch3vr0n]

Even more 'good' news. That's 3 confirmed cases now, so definitely an issue now. Maybe I just stumbled upon an issue that requires one of those 'extremely rare set of circumstances'.

I have Rise of the Lycans. If I can find the box it is in (I recently moved) I'll rerip it and give it a try.

[Ch3vr0n]

Well Clash of the titans just finished succesfully (and exhibited the double DGIndexNV issue) into an iso build where Rise of the lycans failed. That being said, it could be semi-sourcepath related too when it failed to build (not the DGIndexNV issue)

As previously said for underworld the source path in BDRB only showed as:

Z:\BLU-RAY\DOUBLE with the full path being
Z:\BLU-RAY\DOUBLE LAYER\DTS-E\UNDERWORLD_RISE_OF_THE_LYCANS

clash of the titans fully showed as

Z:\BLU-RAY\DOUBLE LAYER\DTS-E\CLASH_OF_THE_TITANS

the only "difference" is that the source path for clash is longer than for underworld. So that may be the reason that it didn't show fully, box too small to display full path. But that's a different "problem"

[jdobbs]

If it's creating "VID_00262_2.DGI" then the second instance has to be occurring because of my code. I just ordered "Underworld - Rise of the Lycans" so I can see if I can repeat it. It should be here in a couple of days.

It really shouldn't hurt anything. The fact that BD-RB is doing an extra instance doesn't affect the output since it should only using the first DGI file for the encode.

[jdobbs]

Ugghhh... Ok, I think I have it. I was wrong (nothing new about that part) when I said BD-RB never runs a second instance of DGIndexNV. It really has nothing to do with whether MULTIPROCESS is set, though -- so I was looking in the wrong section of code. If there are secondary video tracks, it runs another instance to index each of them individually. The reason I didn't catch it is because I wasn't testing on a source with secondary video tracks.

I need to cancel that order...

So... now that I've made this way too complicated -- what is the issue we're trying to fix?

[Ch3vr0n]

We were in fact trying to fix multiple issues.

1) Failed to build structure: http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1702654&postcount=21958 when DGIndexNV is used, job completes fine when LAVF is used (so you may have to order that disc afterall ;) ), where multi-instance of DGIndexNV may be the root of the cause

2) The serious undersizing reported at http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1702928&postcount=21980 on the same source (4GB under target for LAVF build, 2GB for DGIndexNV

3) The fact that multiple DGIndexNV instance are run, even with multiprocess set to 0. Unless that's normal as you say and (if i read you correctly) 1 instance is run to index the main movie and 1 instance is used to index the secondary track, but both are indexed at the same time.

1. I'll run a disc with secondary video and see if I can repeat it. If not I'll have to wait until I get that disc.

2. Are the specified bitrates the same in the two jobs? Do you still have the log from the LAVF job?

3. This isn't an issue. They are supposed to run at the same time -- otherwise it would take twice as long.

[Ch3vr0n]

1. No worries, i can wait. I was able to clone it using LAVF anyway. I can wait :) My main priority was simply to report the issue
2. No they arent. http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1702654&postcount=21958 Reports the bitrate for main title using dgindexnv at 14.554kb, while using LAVF log (not listed, indicates main title at 13.752 kb. Just under a megabyte in difference). No i don't still have a log from that job but i'll run it again. I clean the logfile regurarly as i do a rather big amount of rebuilds and the log would get too big otherwise. Speaking of the log, i've just made a feature request about that
3. Understood, not an issue and working as intended. I can ignore that fact then

[robbie74]

There's really not a lot that could go wrong. The original audio was used. But I always wince when I see this: - AnyDVD Remove Short Titles: Incompatible
- AnyDVD Remove Annoying Adverts: Incompatible It means AnyDVD is playing with it before BD-RB does. I'd suggest you turn those options off and try again.

There's always a chance of Cinavia -- but it I'm not sure whether 6 1/2 minutes is enough time, and you usually get a warning from the player.


I have now unistalled anydvd & still the same problem, loss of audio at 6 1/2 minuets ??

i have attached new log

thanks

I don't think you needed to uninstall AnyDVD. When you rip the disc the AnyDVD options should not modify the disc, such as Remove Short Titles, Remove Annoying Adverts, and Speed Menus.

It is possible those options can cause a problem for BD-RB. If your source files were originally ripped with those options enabled, you might want to re-rip the disc with the options disabled to determine if that is the cause of the problem.


i have tried 2 different films to shrink down to 25gb ( gravity & guardians of the galaxy both 3d )
I took off all audio track except HD & blanked extras & kept menu, but after 6 1/2 minutes the audio just goes off & does not come back.


This may not be a BD-RB problem. I have seen reports on other forums about Guardians of the Galaxy and no audio involving other backup software.

1. No worries, i can wait. I was able to clone it using LAVF anyway. I can wait :) My main priority was simply to report the issue
2. No they arent. http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1702654&postcount=21958 Reports the bitrate for main title using dgindexnv at 14.554kb, while using LAVF log (not listed, indicates main title at 13.752 kb.

3. Understood, not an issue and working as intended. I can ignore that fact thenIt looks like the two bitrates are very close to me based on the logs you posted. The DGDecNV one says 13.757 Kbs and the LAVF one says 13.752 Kbs. So the question is: why the different sizes?

[Ch3vr0n]

no,

the DGDecNV one sais 14.554kb http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1702654&postcount=21958
the LAVF one sais 13.752 http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1703170&postcount=22020

Between those 2 is the big difference in size and the fact that that DGDecNV one was run with multiprocess=1 (2 instances fired up)

DGDecNV one 13.757kb one http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1702928&postcount=21980 is with multiprocess=0

why the difference in size, i have no idea. But it's not the first ISO i see turning out at around 19GB. Prometheus disc 2 (bonus disc) is also such a disc that turns out at 19GB (19.995.904kb exact)

[robbie74]

I don't think you needed to uninstall AnyDVD. When you rip the disc the AnyDVD options should not modify the disc, such as Remove Short Titles, Remove Annoying Adverts, and Speed Menus.

It is possible those options can cause a problem for BD-RB. If your source files were originally ripped with those options enabled, you might want to re-rip the disc with the options disabled to determine if that is the cause of the problem.




This may not be a BD-RB problem. I have seen reports on other forums about Guardians of the Galaxy and no audio involving other backup software.

I have not ripped these as i am waiting for my bluray drive, i have downloaded these from a private site.
Just seems strange that both movies cut off at exactly 6 1/2 minutes.
Once i have my drive i will rip a disc & try again.

just to point out , i have tried both films with dvdfab & it works fine.

Just out of curiosity what convert speeds & time are people getting ?

I have
x4 phenom 970be OC to 4.0ghz
12gb ram
6gb sata hd

My convert speeds seem to be around the 8-9 hour mark with a FPS of .22

Does that seem about right ?

Thanks

1. Your post violates forum rules -- as discussion of downloaded copyrighted material is NOT PERMITTED on Doom9. Please review Rule #6.
2. You have violated BD-RB bug reporting rules -- as the sources have been preprocessed.

#2 above is probably the reason you are having issues. There will be no more discussion related to your posts, any further discussion will result in strikes.

OK, sorry..

[jdobbs]

OK, sorry..BTW, .22fps seems really slow. My system is using an AMD FX-8350. I just did a movie-only disc and I got about 80fps in pass one and 29fps in pass two.

Hmmm, are you SURE that that is the correct FPS...? The reason why I ask is because the way I set my encodes usually for any BDs where the size is north of say 27 Gigs or so, is I have it on High: Default, 2 Pass AND I use x264 tweaks that tune for film, set the ME=umh and the SubME=8, and bump up the Psychovisual and Trellis stuff, just to give it a bit more punch (the High: Default usually sets the ME=hex and the SubME=7 and it doesn't tune for film) So, not that it is actually necessary, but I like to get the most sharpness and detail possible with larger encodes (I may not even SEE the bloody difference, but then all these people here who set it to the overkill of Highest:Very Slow go beyond even that :) )

So, even with all the tweaks and the relatively high setting, at the most my 2nd pass is about 8 hrs or so (the 1st is consistently about 1 - 1 1/2 hrs no matter what my settings)

I have an AMD APU A8-5600 with 8 Gigs of RAM.

When the movie size is smaller, I usually leave it on High: Default 2 Pass and basically only tune - film, so it takes about 4 hrs on the 2nd pass.

When the size is just a couple of Gigs larger than a BD-25, I leave it on 'Auto' with just the tune-film tweaks, and the 2nd pass usually only takes anywhere from 1 to 2 hrs.

The FPS on the 2nd passes are about 4-5 on the really high settings and maybe around 30-70 on the lower settings. That is why I thought .22 sounded REALLY low...

[Sharc]

Hmmm, are you SURE that that is the correct FPS...? The reason why I ask is because the way I set my encodes usually for any BDs where the size is north of say 27 Gigs or so, is I have it on High: Default, 2 Pass AND I use x264 tweaks that tune for film, set the ME=umh and the SubME=8, and bump up the Psychovisual and Trellis stuff, just to give it a bit more punch (the High: Default usually sets the ME=hex and the SubME=7 and it doesn't tune for film) So, not that it is actually necessary, but I like to get the most sharpness and detail possible with larger encodes (I may not even SEE the bloody difference, but then all these people here who set it to the overkill of Highest:Very Slow go beyond even that :) )

So, even with all the tweaks and the relatively high setting, at the most my 2nd pass is about 8 hrs or so (the 1st is consistently about 1 - 1 1/2 hrs no matter what my settings)

Well, yes. But IMHO the real challenge is to relax the settings and still get a (visually) high quality backup, rather than driving everything into the placebo corner. BD-RB "Auto" does a pretty good job in this respect.

I ripped to ISO with AnyDVD HD 7.5.4.0 (Registered lifetime user of the Slysoft program--use same username over at their Forum as well), and while using BD-Rebuilder got this issue that I'm posting below.

I have never seen this before, so I'm stumped.

You are right, of course. BDRB does an outstanding job on it's own, which generally speaking, is precisely what it is for. But, at least I am not as compulsive as all these guys here using 'Highest Quality' on every encode :)

SubME-9 is REALLY going over the deep end and it HUGELY impacts the encoding time for likely no real visual gain...

'Auto' is probably just fine for everything. I just personally start getting a little nervous when the disc size starts getting pretty big and BDRB want's to do the encode really fast, although I'm sure the result would be excellent. I mean, shoot... I USED to be perfectly happy with the free DVDFab encodes, and we KNOW JD's program is a heck of a lot better than that! :)

It is six years ago today that JD bestowed upon this community the genius that is BDRebuilder. Not surprising considering he also gave us DVD Rebuilder years earlier. We are lucky to have him here and I for one am thankful for these gifts he's given us. Excuse me now as I surf to his site to make a donation. He richly deserves it.

I get that I'm one of the supporters that doesn't have to pay...but, man, Eddie...I mean, JD, your program is just Kick-[BLEEEEEEEEEEEEP]!!

I have updated the first post of this thread with a link to the latest release of BD-RB (v0.50.02). Changes for this release:- Added a new hidden option. IVTC_METHOD
lets you choose between DECOMB and TIVTC
as the inverse telecining method. Usage is
defined in HIDDENOPTS.TXT.
- Added the ability to add multiple playlists
to the batch queue when ALTERNATE output is
selected. The feature can be accessed by a
right click in the queue area (if ALTERNATE
output is chosen). For sources previously
imported, the titles specified during import
will be used as output names for the MKV or
MP4 files. Meant as a time saver for those
who like to create MKV/MP4 versions of
series discs.
- Improved automatic audio bitrate ("*") for
MKV and MP4 ALTERNATE output. It now uses
a constant quality parameter for encoding
rather than a predetermined set of audio
bitrates. See ALTAUTOAUDIO in HIDDENOPTS.
- Corrected an issue in which added borders
and/or resizing that is specified in PINFO
may not be applied when reencoding from an
imported source when MULTIPROCESS is in use
with Directshowsource().
- Corrected an error in which required video
resizing mandated by PINFO for an imported
source was not being honored in X264/LAVF
mode. This could result in a distorted
encode and "stretched" view during playback.
- Added code to adjust for DVD imports that
have a horizontal resolution of 352 pixels.
That format is legal for DVD, but not for
the BD standard. It is a rare format, but
it exists on some discs.
- Corrected an issue in which deinterlacing
filters might be used on a 720p source.
- Corrected an error in which aborting during
an ALTERNATE mux, and then attempting to
resume could result in "ERROR in attempt to
mux (MKVMERGE)".
- Corrected an issue in which some movies may
have their audio length clipped when using
NeroAACEnc.
- Fixed a problem in which a 480i source might
be left intact, even when iVTC has been
selected and should be accomplished.
- Updated the included version of X265.EXE to
a newer release (12/22/2014).
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to
the latest release (r2525).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE
to the latest release (r2525).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

Hi jdobbs,

I have the dgindex PID error message again on Full Disc BD25 Backup by new German AKIRA Blu-Ray on MPEG2 Bonus material. The same error I have had on Ger. SHINING Blu-Ray. I thought it was fixed at 0.50.01.

I have tested it on 2 PCs (Win 7 and 8.1) with and without codec packs but nothing changed.

On Akira Blu-Ray the PID error message only comes on mpeg2 VID_00101 and VID_00102 but not on VID_00103.
Please see Pictures and mediainfo log files for the 3 mpeg2 files.

It would be very nice if you can reactivate ffdshow (on hidden options) for mpeg2 encoding again because it works perfect without any Errors on mpeg2 material.

many thanks and kind regards

[jdobbs]

I did a lot of testing on that.

I don't believe I've gotten reports from anyone else who has reported that issue. I even ran BD-RB against the file you provided me that was supposed to have the error -- and couldn't repeat it. That leads me to believe it must be specific to your setup (or your process). I'm not sure what else I can do.

The only time I could repeat it is if I forced a read error on a file.

[Ch3vr0n]

Jdobbs, any progress made on that severe undersized issue I reported earlier?

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 7 met TapatalkCan you give me an example in something other than "UNDERWORLD_RISE_OF_THE_LYCANS"? I ordered that one, it arrived damaged, and I sent it back.

I'll try. I'll run a few encodes over the next few days and get back to you.

@Ch3vr0n - Do you blank any stuff (using the Hidden Option that enables right-click -> Blank)? I find nearly all my discs come out undersized, but I also blank lots of useless stuff. I haven't reported this only because it's been a long while since I've done an untouched re-encode to prove it isn't me.

Hi jdobbs,

no my hdds are all ok. the files are correct backuped and have no read errors and so on. But I dont know why this error only comes if mpeg2 files indexed by dgindex.

If I did encode the movies which have mpeg2 with dvdfab it works and the mpeg2 files are encoded to mpeg4 format without any errors and the BD25 backup works perfect.

with at least bd-reb 0.47.07 it has worked too but the 0.47 I cant use anymore because it's expired.

If you cant find the error I must use, if the error message comes on, dvdfab for bds with mpeg2 material. :(

Tomorrow I can try it on my brothers Laptop... But I dont think it works because I tested mpeg2 stuff on 2 other PCs with same error.

Can it be that an AV/Firewall will block dgindex? On all PCs I tested it has Norton Internet Security installed.

[jdobbs]

Can it be that an AV/Firewall will block dgindex? On all PCs I tested it has Norton Internet Security installed.It's possible, I guess, but a lot of people use Norton, and I've gotten no other reports.

I'll add a hidden option for the next release that will bypass DGIndex/DGDecode for MPEG-2. But, honestly, it is a lot better to not use Directshow -- especially when doing iVTC (which is very, very common in NTSC MPEG-2)

[Hassie]

Thanks Mr Dobbs for the latest updates!

One thing still bothers me, its a minor thing, more esthetic,
If I rebuild a BD from series, with multiple episodes,
If I remove the subtitles and audio I dont want, the links still show up when playing,
If I do a movie only backup they are really gone.
Is there a way to get rid of the empty links when rebuilding full series BD's?

Thank you, Greetings from Hans

Thank you, Greetings from HansUnfortunately you can't do that on a full backup. That's because the audio and/or subtitles can be selected programmatically from either BD-J or HDMV command sequences. So if their references are removed it might cause the disc to crash or fail. So BD-RB links the unused references to the first audio/subtitle that was kept.

[Hassie]

OK, thank you for the answer,
I understand you have to dig too deep into the BD structure to make that happen, thats a pity, but no big deal, I can live with it :-)
Thanx!

[jdobbs]

I'd pretty much have to build a Java interpreter for BD-J, and the equivalent for command sequences -- and then the software to analyze their actions and automatically modify the code. That's way beyond the scope of BD Rebuilder.

Does the MULTIPROCESS option work with H.265 encoding or is this encoder already CPU intensive the it would pose no benefit?

Thanks for your response. Have a good evening.

It already max out cpu, no need for multi process.

How many cores your cpu have?

Happy New Year! Jdobbs!

Please forgive me for my poor English! I'm Chinese.:D I have a confusing tsMuxer problem about ts muxing with "overlapped frame detected at position. Remove frame".:(

"The Amazing Spider-Man 2 2014 BluRay 1080p AVC DTS-HD MA5.1-CHDBits" the disc has several m2ts.

If I mux by adding playlist, the overlapped frames can be detected.:)

If I mux by adding first m2ts, then join the other m2ts one by one(the same order as playlist), the overlapped frames CAN NOT be detected!:eek:

So the two results are diffent. Although it is not a big difference at all, I just want to know why.:o

Thank you for your great work and best wishes to you!!!

[jdobbs]

When there is more than one part to a stream, the audio is muxed into each part. Since the audio has to match the video -- but doesn't necessarily align exactly -- sometimes a duplicate audio frame is found at the beginning of a part. When TSMUXER does the muxing from an MPLS, it knows that the audio is contiguous, so it can recognize duplicates. That wouldn't necessarily be true when you add M2TS files individually (they may not even be a part of the same playlist). I'm guessing the reason why you don't detect a difference is because the audio frames are very small, and the repeated frame isn't enough to be notice.

Hi guy's I haven't done encoding for quite a while,now started again and I tried a couple of movies Blu-Ray and the first Blu-Ray Itried Movie and menu Blank extra went O.K. But the second wasDawn of the planet of the Apes does not play in my sony BDP S-6200. Ikeep only french audio and subtitle I run windows 7 64 bit and I have the 2a version installed LAVFilters.

[magnexx]

Hi, at first sorry for my bad english.

I have a problem with the 3D ISO establishes by the BDRebuilder.

If I play the ISO-3D on my media player "Dune303D" the image is incorrectly (see pictures). When I change from 3D to 2D, then the error is gone.

When I Burn the 3D-ISO of a BD and play on my Samsung BD3D-Player, then there are no problems.

But the Dune303D is NOT defective, because 3D ISO made with Scenarist BD 3D render no problems.

Can someone help me?

Thanks and greetings from Germany

This was asked over at MyCE and I didn't have an answer for them. Is it possible to make a half SBS 3D MKV file using BD Rebuilder and H264? There is an option for this using HEVC, but he wasn't sure Plex could handle this type of file.

I don't see any reason why not. If player can decode SBS content with H264 codec

This is not a bug report but... The HSBS MKV's BD-Rebuilder has made for me play fine using Plex on my Fire TV Stick, and I use the TV's menu to manually select 3D SBS mode.

There is an option for this using HEVC, but he wasn't sure Plex could handle this type of file.Sure you can. Here's an example of an ALTERNATE preset you could add:

[000nn]
caption=MKV Container, Half-SBS (3D), Intact Audio
vBitrate=4000
aType=2
vFormat=5
cType=1


The [00nn] would be set to whatever entry is the next one available in ALTERNATE.TXT. This one assumes the input is 3D at 1920x1080. It also keeps the audio intact, but you could easily convert the audio to AAC with automatic bitrate by using these values instead:

[000nn]
caption=MKV Container, Half-SBS (3D), Auto AAC
vBitrate=4000
aType=1
aBitrate=*
vFormat=5
cType=1

If the video bitrate (vBitrate) isn't high enough (4Mbs) you could change it -- but I normally use CRF for MKV encodes, anyway, so it wouldn't apply.

This assumes you have a monitor that allows you to manually assert 3D mode (most 3D TVs do).

Hello ... to see if you can help me
I want to encode a full bluray bd-25 with the following characteristics:

The main movie has a size of 21 GB
The extras having a size of to 5 gigabytes
a total of 26 GB.

I want to know if there is any command that can add to the config file so that the main movie will not be encoded, and only extras are encoded.
example:

The main movie unencoded 21 GB
The extras encoded 2 GB
A total of 23 GB.

This is possible?
as it would have to do this?

I what I do when I want to do that is to put full-disk, then remove the film and put in out what I want to weigh the extras, i.e. 3 gigabytes, then on the original drive I'm replacing the M2TS created the Extras by the original.

Here is an alternate approach. It entails burning 2 - 25gb BD-R media, but I find media pretty inexpensive these days.

1. Create a movie only BD with zero added compression (use "Custom Target Size" to use a size that fits on a BD-R without reincoding).
2. Create a "Full-BackUp" BD of the same title, but use "Edit Mode" to delete the main movie. This disc/title should contain all your extras with the menu, but no movie.

Be sure to test playback off your hard drive before burning to be sure all works as intended.

[DoctorM]

I linked my miniguide in a PM to max4. He should have the info he needs on doing it manually. Anyone else interested, PM me, this isn't a bug report it is a feature request.

@Rich86 - An automated alternative is a BD25 movie-only and a BD5 of the bonus features. You lose the original menus, but the quick menus from BDRB I find to be better than what a lot of commercial discs have.

[Mark_Venture]

I had been using Alt Movie Only, MKV, 1920x1080, Intact Audio, and select target size.

A month or two ago I switched to using CRF 20 instead of target size.

The last few movies I've done are now a lower "over all bit rate" and of course, smaller files sizes.

Has anyone else seen this, or is it just me?

EDIT: This appears to be self inflicted.. Settings -> Encoder Settings... was set as "Good(Very Fast)" and "One Pass (ABR) Encoding"... where as before I had it.. "Automatic Quality Settings"

I'm not sure when I changed it, but setting it back to Automatic fixed it.

[jdobbs]

I use a CRF of 23 for my MKV encodes. I've seen nothing getting smaller at all. My guess is that the last few you've done just have a lower complexity and need less bitrate.

[Lathe]

@Rich86 - An automated alternative is a BD25 movie-only and a BD5 of the bonus features. You lose the original menus, but the quick menus from BDRB I find to be better than what a lot of commercial discs have.

Or... very similar, but you COULD simply keep the menus for both discs for what is suggested above on each disc and delete each from the opposing disc. On the Blu-ray for the movie only, delete the extras, and for the BD-5 with the extras, delete the movie :)

This will only work if you burn the extras to a BD-R. If the extras are to be burned to DVD media, reencoding will be necessary to reduce the bitrate to be AVCHD compliant!

To me personally, just re encoding the extras for DVD wouldn't really seem like that big of a deal, but you are quite right!

For an MKV you have make sure MKV_MUXSUPS has not been set to "0" -- the default is "1", however (see HIDDENOPTS.TXT).

[DarWun]

I encountered an audio-video sync issue when doing a movie Movie rebuild of the Dead Snow 2 bluray. I'm not sure if it is a BD-Rebuilder bug or an issue with how the disk was authored. When selecting a movie only rebuild of the english language version of the movie, two titles are included in the playlist. The first is a short studio logo clip and the second is the main title. The audio and subtitles are attached to the main title. After starting the rebuild, the audio and subtitles are extracted and the intro clip is reencoded. When BD-Rebuilder attempts to convert the audio from DTS to AC3the rebuild fails. If settings are changed to retain the original DTS audio, the rebuild will complete. However, the audio is significanly out-of-sync with the video.

When I later found that the sync issue does not occur on a full rebuild of the disk, I took a closer look at the audio and video files extracted during the movie only rebuild. The audio duration is only long enough to cover the length of the main title. When all the pieces are put back together, the audio starts to play at the start of the intro clip instead of being delayed to the point where the main title starts. The amount that the audio is out-of-sync through the rest of the movie matches the length of the intro clip.

[jdobbs]

While it is illegal by the standard to have to two streams in a playlist that don't have exactly the same audio characteristics -- it's possible to force it if your authoring software has a way, making it a protection mechanism of sorts. I'll see if I can find that title and see if that's the case.

[DarWun]

I'll see if I can find that title and see if that's the case.

Let me know if there is anything I can provide that would help you determine this so that you don't have to buy the disk if you don't want to. I enjoyed the film for what it was. But it definitely isn't a movie that has mainstream appeal.

I seem to remember having the same issue with the bluray for the original "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo". There was a short "Yellowbird" production studio clip up front of the movie that resulted in the audio and subtitles being out of sync with the main title. I didn't bother reporting the problem at the time as things weren't out of sync enough that they bothered me. That was a few years ago. I'll try to dig that disk out of storage to see if it does the same thing with the latest version of BDRebuilder.

[IanD]

Is it possible to rebuild a full Bluray as Quick Play, but split the resulting files for FAT32 systems?

I looked through the options and settings, but couldn't find any that might suit, except for the strict AVCHD setting, however that was only for BD5 or BD9.

ClownBD has a useful option (AVCHD for PS3), such that it automatically splits the m2ts files into contiguous 3.72GB pieces and creates a playlist with the component files so that they play uninterrupted. Unfortunately it only handles movie-only processing and I want the same thing but for all valid playlists.

[DVD Maniac]

I am running BDR in the recommended LAV only mode and am still getting repeated issues with playback. My preferred output is MKV, CRF=18. intact audio. Playing back the output file starts OK with no sync issues. If I use the browse bar on the player (Zoom Player) to jump to a specific time or use a chapter skip the playback stalls and in most cases the player crashes. I used to have this problem before but this was when I had FFDShow and Matroska installed. Going with LAV only seemed to cure the problem but now its back.

I have tried the obvious experiments such as using alternative soft players, alternative output file type (mp4 / full intact) etc but the problem will not go away. Its extremely frustrating!

Inspect yiields the following which seems correct for LAV only setup?

Hi jdobbs,
I'm using the install link supplied on this forum link, v0.63. What's really bizzare is I have run successful backups on another PC with the exact same source, exact same setup (LAV only) and exact same output settings and the mkv output file plays perfectly on any machine on my LAN. AND the INSPECT output does NOT show any reading on LAV filters as you state above. Here is the INSPECT output on the PC producing a correctly playing output -

- Windows Version: 6.1 [7601]
- AVISYNTH Version: [2.5.8.0], Ok
- HAALI Splitter: Not installed
- FFDSHOW doesn't appear to be installed

and yet HKEY_CURRENT_USER in the registry clearly shows a LAV entry. What the hell????

[gonca]

Any codec packs installed? Is it possible your A/V is interfering with BD_RBs attempts at setting LAVFILTERS as preferred.

[DVD Maniac]

Nope.Just LAV. And I use WIN7DSFilter Tweaker to se LAV as default for all file types. What's so annoying is I sorted this issue before by removing all unecessary codecs and sticking with LAV only. Suddenly the problem has come back and i'm out of ideas troubleshooting the issue. Short of an OS reinstall I don't see what I can try next? :rolleyes:

Hello,

since version 0.50.0.2 alternate output doesn't work for me. I tried to encode mp4-1280*720-acc by setting 2 pass encoding with a fixed size (third option). When I start encoding a pop up appears telling me that the audio is too big to fit into the fixed size and suggests crf. The same happens if i choose the 2 pass encoding with fixed bitrate (second option).

In the moment I use version 0.50.01 for alternate encoding.

additionally if i tried to upscale an imported dvd and encode it to mp4-1280*720-acc a pop up appears telling me about an h.264 error. Is it possible that's because the imported format is interlaced?

Well latest test with the "working PC" has produced a dodgy output. Cannot skip forwards / backwards or chapter surf without any player crashing... :confused:

Having an issue with BD Rebuilder v0.50.02 it think?
I rip my own disc of The Equalizer using DVDFab 9.1.7.1
I will start by saying when I installed BD v0.50.02 id said my set up was not correct and it could correct it. So I let it?
Now running Inspect shows this:

- Windows Version: 6.1 [7601]
- AVISYNTH Version: 2.5.8.0, not recommended version
- HAALI Splitter: Ok
- FFDSHOW: 4504, not recommended version
- WIN7 preferred AVC CODEC: Ok

- FFDSHOW VC-1 set to "wmv9", Ok
- FFDSHOW MPEG2 set to "libavcodec": Ok
- FFDSHOW AVC set to "libavcodec": Ok
- BD-RB vUNKNOWN, not current

I haven't even gone into my issue yet

Just trying to get my set up correct ?
What AVISYNTH version is recommended?
And what about FFDshow ?
And I don't remember BD version ever showing as unknown and not current?

All my issue just might be do to the above setup?
I am experiencing video freezing and video was not touched? Movie only mode converting DTS MA to AC3

Are you sure you're executing the EXE you think you are? It's pretty hard for BD-RB to find the wrong version of itself. You'll need to uninstall AVISYNTH and FFDSHOW first, then then install the versions linked in the first post. Somehow the system isn't seeing the new install.

After I remove the Avisynth 2.6.0.5 and then went back to Avisynth 2.5.8.0 everything straightened out. My original Avisynth 2.5.8.0,must have been corrupted.

[Ch3vr0n]

We'll there's likely your problem, 2.6.0.5 is not the official recommended version. As such bug reports with unsupported versions are not accepted, to the disc again with the supported versions. If you will have the same problem, then come back.

Hello, i have purchased a BD (gladiator) but it doesnt have my language and i want to replace an external audio track keeping video quality bit to bit, and menu... i could get the BD context to my PC.

Another test with the same source but this time set to AVCHD output (mt2s file). Works OK with skipping scanning.

@jdobbs - looks like the issue is either the Video encode to alternative file formats or in rebuild stage?

1. Set BD-RB to BD-50 output. That will prevent reencoding.
2. Start the job.
3. When the audio/video extraction is complete, stop the job.
4. In the working folder, replace one of the audio streams with the stream you want to use. Note: The type of audio (ac3, dts, etc) must match the original, and the sample rate must be the same.
5. Continue the job. When it rebuilds it will use your audio.

[Ch3vr0n]

The only catch with that is, if the audio isn't of the exact same frame length as the video, the audio will be or of sync

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 7 met Tapatalk

[Video Dude]

The way to fix the audio sync if it is the correct length, but has the wrong start time, would be to set the proper audio delay (positive or negative) in tsmuxer. The delay would have to be manually determined.

I've done this before for the movie only mode. Reauthor in tsmuxer with the delay set and then import into BD-RB.

It works for anything... I notice your log doesn't show a point at which you stopped and restarted. So that means you couldn't have possibly followed the instructions I listed.

Okay, if I may... I don't want to put words into JD's mouth here, but I THINK that the language difference is what the trouble is maybe.

I'll try to spell out the steps very easily so you can hopefully translate and understand. I DO speak a little Spanish, but not nearly enough for this :) Also, I do not know exactly how to start/stop BDRB properly as JD is saying, so I'm going to give you an alternate suggestion if that is okay. This suggestion will ONLY keep the video track and your Spanish track, but will NOT keep any of the menus or extras.

1. Run BDRB with your movie

2. As SOON as it finishes extracting the A/V tracks and starts rebuilding the structure, STOP BDRB.

3. Go to the WORKFILES folder.

4. In it you will see the video file that ends I think with .264.

5. Open TSMuxer and import that video file.

6. Using TSMuxer import the Spanish audio file that you want.

7. Use TSMuxer then to build a new BDMV (Blu-ray) folder with the video file and the new Spanish file (if you want also to include any of the other languages too, add those audio files)

8. At this point, if you ONLY want the video track and the Spanish and/or other audio tracks and that is all, then you are done and you can burn the resulting BDMV folder to disc if you want.

9. Or, if you want to compress the size from that point, import the newly made BDMV (Blu-ray) folder into BDMV and set it to output whatever size you want.

The only thing is as was said before. IF the audio and video are NOT in sync, then at # 7 above you will manually have to adjust the delay or time difference using TSMuxer BEFORE you input the result into BDRB.

Now, what JD was saying is that IF you can stop BDRB at I guess the right moment (I'm honestly not quite sure how to do that) then he is saying that you CAN simply put the new Spanish audio track right into the WORKFILES folder and I GUESS just somehow have BDRB continue rebuilding it. But, I don't know quite how to do that exactly :cool:

But, using TSMuxer, then at least you can have a chance to check the A/V sync and adjust if first. Also, using TSMuxer, you can use ANY legal audio format file for your Spanish track instead of HAVING to match the one that is already in BDRB (I think...)

I HOPE that helps somehow...

[Floque]

And Lathe jdobbs through.
Just pause the operation and replace the audio I need. Tomorrow proves again with your advice.

Gracias a jdobbs y Lathe.
Solo pause la operación y sustituir el audio que necesito. Mañana probare de nuevo con vuestros consejo

[Opuslandia]

jdobbs, firstly, thank you for ur suggestion, i will certainly give it a try, but i just did not understand what u meant by "but it's not built-in"
You mean it wont keep the menu?

You can do it, but it's not built-in.

1. Set BD-RB to BD-50 output. That will prevent reencoding.
2. Start the job.
3. When the audio/video extraction is complete, stop the job.
4. In the working folder, replace one of the audio streams with the stream you want to use. Note: The type of audio (ac3, dts, etc) must match the original, and the sample rate must be the same.
5. Continue the job. When it rebuilds it will use your audio.

[jdobbs]

No. I mean BD-RB doesn't do it automatically as a built-in function -- you have to manually do it by stopping, replacing the file, and restarting.

[degazor]

Hi,
Impossible to make 3d compilations (when quick reauthored, I get only 2d version of my 3d sources in compilation...) ?
Also, is it possible to reduce time lap (maybe 4 seconds) between parts of the compilation when reading, as if you were reading a dual layer disk (I don't care about menu: just want to put 2 disk movie into 1 reauthored disk)?
Thanks for your help !

[jdobbs]

I have updated the first post of this thread with a link to the most recent update to BD-RB (v0.50.03). Changes for this release:- Improved prediction of audio size when auto
ALTERNATE audio bitrate an a target size is
selected.
- Added a new audio option to the SETUP dialog
that enables use of a special type of Dynamic
Range Compression. This option will improve
some audio tracks where quieter sounds, like
conversations, can be lost due to playback
volume adjustments needed for louder sounds.
- Added a new hidden option AUDIO_DRC_FACTOR
which sets a factor for amount of Dynamic
Range Compression. See HIDDENOPTS.TXT
- Corrected an issue with automatic ALTERNATE
audio bitrate settings when a target size
has been selected (resulting in "Audio is
too large for target" dialog).
- Corrected an issue in which restarting from
an aborted encode while forced subtitles are
enabled might result in the subtitles not
being displayed by default. This would also
apply to ALTERNATE encodes using SupTitle.
- Corrected an issue in which forced subtitles
in multipart movie-only titles did not work
properly.
- Added a hidden option MPEG2_DIRECTSHOW. If
set to "1" it will disable DGDECODE.DLL as

Jdobbs, thanks for the new version!

Please when you have time take a verified the possibility to force subtitles on quick-play mode.

[Lathe]

I have updated the first post of this thread with a link to the most recent update to BD-RB (v0.50.03). Changes for this release:- Improved prediction of audio size when auto
ALTERNATE audio bitrate an a target size is
selected.
- Added a new audio option to the SETUP dialog
that enables use of a special type of Dynamic
Range Compression. This option will improve
some audio tracks where quieter sounds, like
conversations, can be lost due to playback
volume adjustments needed for louder sounds.
- Added a new hidden option AUDIO_DRC_FACTOR
which sets a factor for amount of Dynamic
Range Compression. See HIDDENOPTS.TXT
- Corrected an issue with automatic ALTERNATE
audio bitrate settings when a target size
has been selected (resulting in "Audio is
too large for target" dialog).
- Corrected an issue in which restarting from
an aborted encode while forced subtitles are
enabled might result in the subtitles not
being displayed by default. This would also
apply to ALTERNATE encodes using SupTitle.
- Corrected an issue in which forced subtitles
in multipart movie-only titles did not work
properly.
- Added a hidden option MPEG2_DIRECTSHOW. If
set to "1" it will disable DGDECODE.DLL as
the decoder for MPEG-2 via AVISYNTH (when in
Directshow mode) and use DirectshowSource()
instead. The default is "0" (OFF). It is
not recommended to change the default except
as required for very special circumstances.
- Corrected a problem in which it is possible,

WOW! You have been busy mate!

many thanks for that! ;)

I will retry dgdecode when I update from Win 7 to Win 10.
I don´t know why dgdecode dont work correctly on my current Win 7 system!?

I ran a test to confirm this fix on the title where I first saw it; 'The Counselor'.

I first ran BD-RB version 50.01 to test the pre-fix version: Part 1 of 3 re-encoded, but part 2 of 3 did not. So I aborted and started up BD-RB 50.03 and re-ran with the exact same settings: all 3 parts re-encoded (I didn't wait for completion because I was doing these tests on my slow computer). I posted the log below, just in case it is of interest.

I didn't re-test 'Trance', the other title where I saw this problem, because I recall you said you had purchased that title for testing, so I presume that you've already confirmed the results on that title yourself.

Anyways, looks like you've squashed that one. Kudos, and a job well done :)

Uh oh... I think our esteemed guru and leader has been testing the mushrooms... :D

[jdobbs]

You caught me.

[louv68]

I respectfully ask jdobbs, if a particular version is working fine, why make it unusable by forcing an update? I'm all in for the app to implement new features and improvements, but forcing an update does not make sense to me? Wouldn't a popup indicating there is a new version available, be a better alternative? This would give the person the option to do so.

[jdobbs]

There hasn't been a forced update or timeout in several versions now (since v0.49.07).

The purpose of the timeout was never to implement new features -- but to prevent me from having to answer bug reports that had already been fixed. I think that was fair as it's me who had to respond to outdated reports. But I think it's stable enough now that I don't get the volume of bug reports that I used to, so I disabled the timeout.

The only reason I keep it in beta is so I can still make significant changes without having to apologize every time I cause a new bug.

I may have missed this, but how does BDRB handle Atmos audio? I saw a ways back where a fellow was trying to reencode 'TRANSFORMERS 4' which has an Atmos soundtrack, and he commented that it looked like it was keeping like a 7 Gig audio track (he wanted intact audio) and I looked for a few pages after that and I didn't see any further replies to that. I think he mentioned that he would like to keep just the normal HD audio WITHOUT all the Atmos information.

Would someone mind refreshing me about how BDRB handles this kind of audio?

Thanks!

[Ch3vr0n]

It handled it just fine for me, but then again I do keep audio intact myself too.

Thanks!It does nothing special. There are clearly defined standards for BD audio, and nowhere is "Atmos" a part of that standard. So the audio has to appear, at least, to be one of the standard formats. The audio equipment is responsible for providing the Atmos extension information directly from the digital data (I would presume).

So if you keep the track intact, the Atmos extension data stays. If you reencode, the output is Dolby 5.1 reencoded from the data that is present in compliance with the BD standard.

Ah, I hadn't realized that Atmos in indeed NOT part of the Blu-ray standard (although that's odd then that they do make commercial Blu-rays with the dang thing...???) Good to know then, thanks!

I suppose that if the Atmos stuff adds THAT much size to the audio track, there may be ways to transcode it using UsEAC3to or TSMuxer or something in the future. Seems like I was reading a thread about that somewhere...

Did you notice, as the guy was saying, that like with 'TRANSFORMERS 4' the full intact audio came out to about 7 Gigs? Wouldn't you think that that would kind of cramp a person's style a bit with re-encoding, taking up that much space...?

[Ch3vr0n]

7gig is nothing on a 25gb disc. (Exact space is 23.5) which still leaves 16.5gb for the movie, with the power of x264 that's plenty. Even more when English is the only audio you keep. I didn't notice any pixellation issues on my 42" TV.

Thanks Ch3vr0n! Just seemed like a lot to me, although I always keep intact audio in English. After all, you ARE talking about almost 1/3 of the space for audio! I think the largest HD audio steams I can remember were about 4 Gigs, maybe a bit more, so 7 just seems like a lot. But, you are quite right of course; x264 is amazing enough to handle it, I would suppose :)

[worknstiff]

@ Lathe RE: Just seemed like a lot to me, although I always keep intact audio in English.

I always want to keep the HD audio too. If you process Transformer 4 with BD_Rebuilder you will find in the work folder the following audio files for the 00800.mpls

* 00800.4352.ac3 = 5.79gb
* 00800.4353.ac3 = 755mb
* 00800.4358.ac3 = 755mb

which adds up to 7.26gb, which is a LOT of audio. I am tempted to think that the "ATMOS" sound info is just in the two =755mb ac3's but maybe jdobbs would be able to tell us more about how that works. He is after all the master of all things bluray, lol. I wish there was a checkmark to keep only the DTS-HD 7.1 audio and discard the ATMOS but I guess it would mean a lot more of a headache than just deleting the two 755mb ac3 files. How many people will have 128 different speakers in their home anyway, I myself only have a 5.1 setup but want to keep the 7.1 in case I decide to upgrade the rear channels some time. Hope to see some more discussion about ATMOS cause it looks like this will become the norm on blu ray especially with the upcoming 4K ultra blu rays.

[andref4]

Dolby Atmos to DTS-HD is not possible without reencoding the track. But there is no Freeware that can do this. You can only extract the HD track to a normal 5.1 track by loosing the core infos. On Transformers 4 BD is only the english track an Atmos track and thats not my language I watch movies.

Hmmm, well I suppose that it will just take time for us to get used to the format and learn what ways there are in order to deal with it whether we wish to keep it in full or extract / transcode to whatever else we may want. I THINK I remember reading a thread about usEAC3to where they were discussing at length wanting to be able to process Atmos audio, but at the time the GUI wasn't accepting it.

[rnewste]

I have been able to preserve Atmos audio with BD Rebuilder, and it plays back fine on my Denon X5200 Receiver.

Raybo

[jdobbs]

Exactly. There's really no "processing" required if you want to keep it. Just keep the original audio intact.

[AmigaFuture]

7 GB for audio is a bit much. Even for BD-25. I don't need or care about all the "Special Sound Effects" for movie..so rerendering that to smaller is cool...and keeps sweeter video.

@JD

I bought Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters 2 in a pack, and have noticed if first movie is processed (without any rerendering) to just have warning and stuff removed and not keeping any 480i which has mixed Telecine and Interlaced, it completes well. However, if I switch to BD-25 output and enable rerendering the final mux fails. It does have a secondary video..

Long list of tests...so attached instead of posted; including config.

Best guess is that the MKV is corrupt. I'm importing MKVs with no issues.

[soneca]

No. Input = 1080 and 720p and output = DVD and AVCHD/BD5/720p.
Speaking of the type pgs subtitles, the BDRB in import mode does not accept this type of subtitles, correct?

[jdobbs]

Yes, it supports import of PGS streams from MKV. If you look at the MKV with MEDIAINFO the codec id should say "S_HDMV/PGS"

BD-RB will also import subtitles of the type SRT.


[Edit] As a test I just imported an MKV which has PGS subtitles. No problem.

[soneca]

I do not know what's going on.... :confused:
This support mkv with pgs subtitles also applies to generate dvd's?
I've done many AVCHD discs and DVD's from the mkv files with srt subtitles embedded type, no problem, all right.
But tried a few times to generate a dvd from mkv files with embedded pgs subtitles but the result is always DVD without subtitles.
I will do more tests to a better definition of what is happening...

Thanks!

Mmmm, I can't recall which title or when, but I SWEAR I had a same/similar problem a while back :S

I generally don't complain about MKV input problems though, because the program is mostly aimed at BD → (name your format). I guess I probably should have posted though. It technically was a bug... :S

Thanks!Ok. I'm confused. You said you that BD-RB was failing when it tried to import PGS subtitles from an MKV. So that's what I tested. Now it appears you're reporting something different.

There really shouldn't be any problem outputting the PGS subtitles to DVD -- as they would be no different than regular BD subtitles after they're imported, but I'll test that tomorrow.

That's what I noticed, too. After a few tries.

Update: Using internal LAVF, single and 2-pass the test process completes without error, unless I don't delete the previous Output directory. Then this error is produced: "CopyDirStructure() 00075 1200". Otherwise, if deleted after starting process..all goes well.

Shame to you and your family name! Joking. I haven't imported any DVDs and made MKV's from them in a while, but that does remind me to revisit a bug when MKVs ARE involved, but not meaning they're causing it. I'll check that soon.

As of right now, though, I'm still leaning toward corrupt sources. Do you know what muxing software was used to create the MKV files? There's not much I can do for a source that has issues before hitting BD-RB. The MKV sources I'm using for testing are all created by BD-RB. That way I know they are properly formatted.

Just as a test, you might try remuxing one of the sources that failed to import with MKVMERGE before attempting import.

Interesting. I'll have to try that next time. :thanks: Sometimes, a corrupt source fed to X264/lavf, won't fail when fed to DGDecNV. Recently, I had an out of sync MKV from a BD source. I suspect it was an old rip from my iHES108. It caused a few bad rips :mad: THey didn't appear bad, but when reencoded, they had minor problems. This time though, DGDecNV was able to correct whatever the problem was :)

I used to label which drive ripped a BD. But It's quite possible that I missed a few...

I tried to import 11 mkv files and 4 of them gave me that error message that I reported. The files are similar, so do not know what is causing this error.
But the conversion to DVD from mkv with subtitles pgs the error comes after they are properly converted to idx/sub, at the time of integration to vob container.

You should see it fixed in the next release.

[soneca]

OK, if you want me to do some tests, just let me know!

:thanks:

I just noticed that BD rebuilder versions starting with 0.47.xx cannot open "Lord of the rings - return of the king extended edition (disc2)"
Error 2501 (20:58:56) SourceCheck() 00055 2501
appears in V00.47.05
All versions prior to 00.47.xx have no problems.I've just experienced this same problem using v5.0.0.3. Searched for addl replies and didn't find anything. Only happens on disc 2. Disc 1 works fine. Have tried w/AnyDVD enabled and disabled and on two different drives. Rips and/or disc 2 plays fine w/PDVD and TMT and Sony standalone. errors received are:

[soneca]

Mmmm, I can't recall which title or when, but I SWEAR I had a same/similar problem a while back :S

I generally don't complain about MKV input problems though, because the program is mostly aimed at BD → (name your format). I guess I probably should have posted though. It technically was a bug... :S

I hardly use BDRB to import mkv files with the type pgs subtitles type to generate a DVD or a Blu-ray / avchd. But it is good to work properly, and the BDRB/HCenc/x264 is one of the few to do this kind of conversion with quality! :):):)

[AmigaFuture]

Just as a test, you might try remuxing one of the sources that failed to import with MKVMERGE before attempting import.

Good suggestion.. I've encountered some (rare) MKV's I've made with BD-RB (MKVMerge) that later, due to bugs being fixed with MKVMerge, showed as errors with BD-RB when importing. Sometimes fixed by demuxing and remuxing. In some cases...I had to process anew.

[soneca]

Thanks for the tip Jdobbs. All four sources were accepted without problems by BDRB after demuxing/remuxing(mkvmerge 7.5.0.).
One of the sources was created with the very recent version(7.4.0).

One of the sources was created with the very recent version(7.4.0).The version included with BD-RB is 7.1.0, which I'd tested thoroughly. I'm currently testing 7.5.0, and if I don't run into any issues I'll include it in the next release.

Same here...

[FilipeAmadeuO]

No. I mean BD-RB doesn't do it automatically as a built-in function -- you have to manually do it by stopping, replacing the file, and restarting.
jdobbs
Do you have any plan to implement a audio/subtitle replacement function on BDRebuilder ?
It would be a great feature :)

I know i can do it manually by stopping BDRebuilder...

Another question. Is there any way to correct the struture if i want to replace (manually) a DTS_HD by a DTS audio ?

Well, again I don't know if this is what you want, or how you can do that specifically with BDRB, but if you simply use TSMuxer, remove the audio stream you don't want, and drag and drop the audio track that you do want, and then mux it to whatever you want. If you need further processing with BDRB, then mux it to a 'Blu-ray Folder' and then input the new folder created with TSMuxer with your new audio track, and proceed with BDRB like you normally would.

I hope this helps...

[AmigaFuture]

I switched mode to Quick-Play Backup. BD-RB imported 5 good MKV's.

0.50.02

First Picture is result. Same config as from my Ghostbusters report.

I switched Settings/BD-50 to BD-25... The list has now changed. VID_00003 is removed by BD-RB.

Second picture.

If I alternate BD-25 <> BS-50, there isn't anything that changes. If I switch to Full Backup it now shows. Switch back to Quick-Play and it's gone again.
Switch to Movie and Menus and it's there, as to be blanked. Uncheck it from Movie and Menus and still doesn't show except in Full Backup. (I'm just checking for fun at this point..)

That's what I have so far. It might not be a bug, but for it to disappear like that...an average user could wonder.

[soneca]

I imported 4 mkv sources in the quick-play mode, BDRB was set to BD-5(last setting used). When I changed the output to BD-25 one of the sources has been removed by BDRB.

[jdobbs]

I'd need more information. How big is the one that was removed?

Also, the fact that it was removed from the list doesn't mean it is being ignored. It just means BD-RB has decided not to process it, and it will be kept intact. In BD-5 mode that isn't an option, because of DVD+-R bitrate limitations. The question might be, though, whether "intact" is appropriate ever in pseudo-BD structure.

Why would you import and select "Quick-Play" mode? Normally you'd do a full backup after an import. Using quick-play on an import is just redundantly redoing (during the encoding/rebuild phases) what was already accomplished during the import. Quick-Play does do analysis, though, to try and determine what meets it's "keep" parameters (in the Quick-Play settings menu). If that file is smaller than the Quick-Play minimum it will be removed. If it is somehow determined to be a menu it would also be removed (although I don't see how that could happen on an imported source).

With that said, I'll have to look at why the file in AmigaFuture's list is disappearing -- if I can repeat it somehow.

[jdobbs]

@AmigaFuture

How long is VID_00004 (in minutes)? Is it shorter than the setting you have set in "SETTINGS/Import/Quick Play Settings"? If so, that would explain why it disappears when you select Quick-Play. The default is 15 minutes.

I'd also guess that it is shorter than the default BLANK_THRESHOLD (which is 20 minutes). The BLANK_THRESHOLD is used to determine where to decide what is an extra (as opposed to a feature).

[AmigaFuture]

Selected "Quick-Play" then imported for those tests. Previous tests were also started from Full Backup and Movie & Menus.

Edit: WELL!! I had messed with the Import/Quick-Play settings a while ago different versions, but I forgot about the "Minimum BD Playlist minutes...." Laughing at myself. I didn't keep the settings from previous...so this was still set "Default". Set it to "1" and the disappearing 371MB is now staying. I tried setting to "2" and that wasn't enough. I'm a little confused about this setting, but...mess with it more and I hope to understand it better. Pardon, JD.

Edit 2: I didn't see your post before this one. VID_00004. 1 hour 31 minutes and 55 seconds.

[DoctorM]

@AmigaFuture - Try setting Minimum Playlist to 0 and see if that helps.

[soneca]

It seems I am also confused by these settings, in fact I hardly used the program for such work.
The "Minimum BD / DVD playlist minutes (import threshold)" is also valid for any type of file or only for playlists?
File removed by BDRB lasts for 03:47 and the above configuration has been changed to 0 minutes.

You're right jdobbs.
It took for me to understand because there was no indication that the file had not been removed, but "hidden".
The source(VID_00004) was not ignored/removed in the BD-25 mode and remained intact. In the BD-5/9 modes would be processed.
Could it be any extra indication in the log to these sources that are not processed?

[AmigaFuture]

@ DoctorM

I already considered that. :) Good tip, so far hasn't been needed.

@JD

I've not "upgraded" to the newest BD-RB (still 50.02), but a few times I've noticed I had to abort a process because an x364.exe crashed. Discerning frame rates. This is a vague post, I get it. I'm only informing F.Y.I. I'm going to keep checking it...and if I notice anything more, I'll relate it. I'll "update" it soon and check newer version.

[jdobbs]

Now that I never force updates (because I removed the timeout), I need to add something to the code to check my server and notify users when a new version is out. The question is: How do I do that without it being too annoying?

[soneca]

You can add a line like "Check for uptades" in the Help column, and the setup menu the option to be notified or not about new updates.

[omegaman7]

It won't annoy me :p Especially if it's something that's manually selected.

[AmigaFuture]

I agree. Add it to Help.. I disable "Automatically check for Updates?" within programs. If there's an option to "Notify to check?", sometimes I keep that active. I prefer to choose to use the option. Another is to make a "Go to the Website to check for Update." like AnyDVD (HD) has. However you want to word it. There are more than enough programs that prompt users...and through tech stuff that I'm often asked, "How do I stop the -edited word- program from pestering me?" I love Directory Opus as a File Manager and MUCH more but I do NOT like the "Hidden Check" they've built into it even though I'm registered. I have all Check for Updates disabled, but there's still an Icon that displays for "Update Available". Granted, reminders are nice...but covert/on the Sly...I am against!! I block it with Firewall now. My feeling is, "Check when I ask..since you're running on MY computer." Not annoyed with, just don't support hidden checks.
So, I'd love both. Option for.. "May I check online?" and the other in Help to be found and selected. My 2 cents. :)

[jdobbs]

I just don't think people will ever click a button for "Check for New version" any more often than they do the "Donate" button. Hell, most people don't even know that one is there (I've gotten e-mails from people asking how to donate). I'd rather have it check automatically occasionally (like most other software does, e.g. AnyDVD). If a click is required, I'd rather it was for "don't check for new versions".

It's easy to say "don't bother me with notifications" when you're not the one having to figure out whether a bug question is from a version that was released a year ago (mainly because they didn't know about the newer ones) -- or have something that really needs to be fixed and there's no way to get it known except to the people who are regulars here on Doom9.

That's the main reason why the expiration was there for so long.

[AmigaFuture]

I get that, I get that...I Get that! I don't mean this as an attack, JD, ...Why do you seem so pessimistic toward people clicking on "Check for a New version?" That outweighs the "There's a new version? I was never informed of that." with the current awareness of the users (under 40). Most whom care about this kind of project WILL check the Help. This project hasn't come into the mass awareness, yet. Heh, as much as I've talked to others and stuff...most are unaware of AnyDVD (HD) even... We shouldn't loose sight that...Yes, we have the Internet..but Global Awareness is "Facebook" drama...and Basic computer usage.

I am TOTALLY Cool with a "Donate" button with a Neat graphic! It's an attention getter..when done well. I didn't even consider that, but I'm reminded of several conversations.. YES, that's more attractive to people than "Buy now!!" which is more of a FORCEFUL statement. Not cool when it comes to programs. Donate....means more to people than "Buy Now!" -- Most people prefer to feel GOOD rather than to be Guilted or blamed. Most people I know view "Buy Now!" as "Get outta my face! You're too pushy!" where as Donate...is "Help support what you Like/Love." I know a lot of people battling the Guilt and Blame thing. Not me, but....I'm aware.
I deal with a version of the General Public; friends, associations, family..and ..more. Donate isn't in their face...even if it's a 30 second "nag"... If the program isn't crippled..they still see a Reminder...and still use it. If there's an Update in the "Help" with a Donate there, they're much more to follow it "some time". This is from people I've asked from where I live. 2 cents again..

Last bit.. I get it that most are used to being spoon-fed information. They're used to commercials telling them what to do. You have a nitch market here.. If you WANT to branch past Doom9, and make some Real money with your passion, We're with you...most of us Bug Reporters (myself included) would even Advocate with you (BE in a commercial)...but you gotta advertise. You..Really Might Not Understand how many people would -LOVE- this program if they -knew- it existed. NO, BS!! Look at what Apple has done with Steve Jobs's help. Advertise, Bro! I talk to people, I'm sure Omega, and the others' do also. Okay, I've offer 4 cents now....and this is long..so.. The end...and back to the Forum...pardon, everyone.

[FilipeAmadeuO]

Well, again I don't know if this is what you want, or how you can do that specifically with BDRB, but if you simply use TSMuxer, remove the audio stream you don't want, and drag and drop the audio track that you do want, and then mux it to whatever you want. If you need further processing with BDRB, then mux it to a 'Blu-ray Folder' and then input the new folder created with TSMuxer with your new audio track, and proceed with BDRB like you normally would.

I hope this helps...
That´s exactly want i want but it would be great if we could do it with just one tool like BDRebuilder. Hope jdobbs could think about it :)

I ran into the same issues when I was a developer. I ended up putting an on/off entry in the help pull down "Check for Updates on Start Up" and a second entry "Check for Updates Now". That way they could turn off the auto check but still check manually. It seemed to satisfy most customers that did not want to be "nagged".

[jdobbs]

To get rid of the nagging, you just tell them once that a new version is out, and then maybe follow up once a month if the old version is still in use. I can program my server to respond to a version query in a matter of milliseconds on most connections.

And to implement this an installable version of BDRB be necessary? :eek:

[jdobbs]

And to implement this an installable version of BDRB be necessary? :eek:Not really. But you did remind me that I need to create an installer for BD-RB.

[AmigaFuture]

Perhaps an installer & as you have now; archived? Like Matroska?

[soneca]

Now would be about the same as the portable version of Matroska.
I prefer it that way but... it's the guy who decides. :rolleyes:

[RobertM]

My 2 cents...

Have BD-RB check for update every time it launches. If one is available, give a "update is available" message, with options "Update/Later/Ignore". Later will just suppress the nag until the next session. Ignore will suppress the nag until a NEWER update is available. Once a newer update (newer than the ignored update) is detected the cycle begins anew.

People will still get 1 nag per new update version, but that's not really all that often. I think that most people would want to be up-to-date, and would actually welcome that small amount of interaction.

Just my opinion.

+1
I agree, I had thought that interaction mode. Gives the user more options and flexibility to act as the moment.

[soneca]

Not really. But you did remind me that I need to create an installer for BD-RB.

Jdobbs, speaking of BD-RB updates even after the installer ready would be possible to continue providing not installable version as there is now? Many developers keep these two versions.

[jdobbs]

Yeah, no problem. Honestly, though, I have no idea when I will implement any of this.

[soneca]

Ok, development and bug fixes are more important than that.
Anyway, thank you!

[kctobyjoe]

Had this error popup; FWIW
I found an MP4 version and played with that instead...MAY have been an ANYDVD HD malfunction; it appeared the rip of the title was NOT successful with ANY DVDHD...
couldn't find where to post this as anew item rather than as a reply...sry

[jdobbs]

The error means that BD-RB is somehow attempting to create a duplicate key for an item in the streams list. It is very likely your source is corrupt or has been edited in some way. The only way I can imagine that happening is if there are video files with duplicate numeric names (e.g. 00000.m2ts and 00000b.m2ts). The second name is illegal and should be impossible on a properly structured disc.

[Edit] Actually, I tried manually creating a duplicate and even then I couldn't force that error. Any chance the file structure on your source disc is corrupted?

[emilio99]

I have problems with german disc "Sin City 2 3D", Disc cannot be created :(

i just noticed that bd rebuilder versions starting with 0.47.xx cannot open "lord of the rings - return of the king extended edition (disc2)"
error 2501 (20:58:56) sourcecheck() 00055 2501
appears in v00.47.05
all versions prior to 00.47.xx have no problems.

i've just experienced this same problem using v50.03. Only happens on disc 2. Disc 1 opens fine. Have tried w/anydvd enabled and disabled and on two different drives. Rips and disc 2 play fine w/pdvd and tmt and sony standalone. Errors received are:
- [10:52:24] scandirectory() 00006 2603
- [10:52:26] sourcecheck() 00009 2503
- [10:53:08] sourcecheck() 00055 2501
illegal source. Selected source is not a bd format. :confused: Any help/suggestions appreciated. Tia!!!

i have updated the first post of this thread with a link to an updated release of bd-rb (v0.40.10). Changes for this release:- corrected an issue related to unusual mpls files
that could result in "sourcecheck() 00006 2501" at
program startup or during scanning. Just following up on a recent problem I'm having opening the above mentioned disc. Did a little more digging and found a similar problem was fixed a while back in the version above. I have noticed that BDRB will open the disc in movie only mode but not in full backup or movie & menus mode. Another member was asked to send their .mpls files for another disc with a similar problem. If you like I can do the same, let me know. Thanks for any help/suggestions!

That's strange. I'm not sure where the "00002" came from in "00002.track_4114.mvc". It clearly should have been "00001.track_4114.mvc".

I still run into problems with target sizes. Even in 2-pass on a BD25 things are usually under the target by at least 1 gb, usually more.
Today I just wanted to strip some audio tracks from a very nearly BD25 disc and it attempted to re-encode.
Switched to a BD50 target and the output was 19.8gb.
Disc is Chicken Little.

I just wanted to report this, but it seems like I'm the only one still having output size issues. I can't figure out why since I originally had this on a completely different system under WinXP. Now I'm on a very modern system under Win7 x64.

Edit: I don't know if this helps, but here are the first few lines of the .INF file.
[Status]
LABEL=LOGICAL_VOLUME_ID
VERSION=v0.50.02
SOURCE_SIZE=25687371554
SOURCE_VIDEO_SIZE=22101780480
TARGET_SIZE=24641536000
REDUCTION=.952680936499827

The source size is correct for the full disc, but shouldn't anything removed (audio, subtracks, etc.) or re-encoded audio be deducted from that number at this point? I really can't put my finger on what the math is doing.

Btw, 2-pass also starts the video encode, not just CRF mode.
From what I've seen this isn't restricted to just this disc.

[RobertM]

Hi Doc,

Instead of using the default for BD-25 (23500 MB) I just set a custom size for 24200 MB. It typically gives me a 98% full disc per ImgBurn. I've been doing that for quite a while, with very consistent results.

[jdobbs]

Multipart sources are difficult to nail down for the reencoding or keeping decision on some sources. For example, if you run into a single M2TS that requires encoding (because it is larger that the specified bitrate would make) it would force all the other sections to reencode as well (you can't just do one part of a sequence of parts).

[Limobar]

I still run into problems with target sizes. Even in 2-pass on a BD25 things are usually under the target by at least 1 gb, usually more.
Today I just wanted to strip some audio tracks from a very nearly BD25 disc and it attempted to re-encode.
Switched to a BD50 target and the output was 19.8gb.
Disc is Chicken Little.

Is it possible that this huge undersize is a result of the encoder hitting the minimum quantizer (highest quality) and therefore cannot produce a higher bitrate (= bigger filesize)?

I don't know what's the quantizer range that BD-Rebuilder uses, but you are encoding animation, so it might be the case.

[IanD]

Is there a setting I can change or an intervention I can make in the operation of BDR that will create FAT32 compatible m2ts files, or would I have to create source material in that format and import as separate titles, then use the Quick Play facility to structure them into an overall playlist?

[DoctorM]

Multipart sources are difficult to nail down for the reencoding or keeping decision on some sources. For example, if you run into a single M2TS that requires encoding (because it is larger that the specified bitrate would make) it would force all the other sections to reencode as well (you can't just do one part of a sequence of parts).

I'm hoping I understand you correctly. (Sorry if I missed your meaning.)

The movie is a single m2ts (I checked the playlist with BDInfo) that is 19.8gb. The rest of the video is bonus features.
I can only assume their presence is what confuses the situation since I tested a movie-only project to BD25 and the reencoding didn't kick in.

I still have the weird feeling that BDRB does not deduct stripped audio tracks from the size of the source before doing bitrate calculations.

You are encoding in CRF mode, no?
Even with CRF prediction you cannoct expect accurate file size, because only snippets (1%) rather than the full movie are used for CRF estimation. In order to prevent oversize problems, one has to plan for some margin.
In your second run the video was kept intact. Why should it get expanded?
Maybe I am missing something...?

[jdobbs]

Yes, I didn't notice in the log that he was using CRF. CRF can never be 100% accurate unless you do 100% sampling. Which, of course, would be 2 pass encoding.

[DoctorM]

I don't usually use CRF, so that's not why I have undersized output. That being on was a mistake.

In the case of the posted log though, no encoding was needed CRF or otherwise. Good thought though.

[g00g]

While trying to do a movie only encode I got this popup message:
BD Rebuilder experienced an error 1801
ReencodeAudio() 00009 1801

Error appears in all versions 50.x. Did not test any further.

When running the same video with alternate mp4 (audio acc) output I got the message, that 4.2.0 chroma is not support by gpu (decoding with dgdecnv).

the video section, which is encoded just before the error, is a short file (without sound).

Any ideas?

[jdobbs]

I don't usually use CRF, so that's not why I have undersized output. That being on was a mistake.

In the case of the posted log though, no encoding was needed CRF or otherwise. Good thought though.In that case the reason it is smaller than your target is because it was kept intact. BD-RB can't make an intact video larger. Reencoding to a larger size cannot improve on the quality of a source.

There seems to be some confusion. In the case of the log I posted, going to BD25 by way of stripping non-English tracks should have produced a 19,8gb disc.

Instead BDRB assumed that would have been oversized and attempted to re-encode the video.

I've seen this with other discs where they are only slightly larger than BD25 and stripping audio would make it fit.

I think I confused things by mentioning that I typically find the output to be undersized.

[jdobbs]

I guess I'm just confused. You said that there is only one M2TS that is 19.8GB, which made me assume you were talking movie-only, but in post #22241, where you initially present your problem, the log is showing five M2TS files totaling 23.92GB being encoded and it is a full backup.

Since you've calculated that after removing some audio tracks it should fit, I guess I'd have to find "Chicken Little" in order to figure out what's happening.

I didn't mean for this to be an issue, especially since no one else seems to be noticing it.

I thought your response was that BDRB has trouble calculating sizes when the main movie covers multiple M2TS files, not when multiple M2TS files are present on the disk in general.

Yes, it was a full back up, but the movie was only in a single M2TS.

Don't lose sleep on this, I'll just raise the BD25 target manually.

[AmigaFuture]

JD, please check IVTC_SELECTION=1 & IVTC_METHOD=0/1 on your end. Using:

caption=MKV Container, 1280x720, Intact Audio
aBitrate=0
aType=2
vFormat=4
cType=1


BD-RB 50.02 will not rerender a 59.94fps progressive to 23.976fps with smooth playback.. Going back to 50.01, it does. I have a cold, but I've also checked this. I'd like you, or anyone else to confirm. I also noticed 50.02 is producing capital MKV..not lower mkv. I thought that difference interesting, nothing more.

[jdobbs]

Hmm... I don't think it was ever supposed to change it. But I'll check it out.

I changed to a lower case MKV for no reason other than "I liked it better".

As I wrote before I think the first VID has no audio. Nothing to listen during previewing.

The second VID (main movie) has DTS-HD XLL, Multi-Ch.

[g00g]

What does BD-RB say for audio (in the streams list)?

No "Plus" Sign in front of VID.

Interesting is ...

When I choose Full Backup Mode VID 2 has a "Plus" Sign in front of VID and the audio and subtitle streams listed are the same as in VID 1 (main movie).
When I choose Movie Only Mode only VID 1 has audio and subtitle streams.

[RobertM]

Can't you tell us what the title is? How's JD supposed to fix this if you keep him blindfolded?

No "Plus" Sign in front of VID.

Interesting is ...

When I choose Full Backup Mode VID 2 has a "Plus" Sign in front of VID and the audio and subtitle streams listed are the same as in VID 1 (main movie).
When I choose Movie Only Mode only VID 1 has audio and subtitle streams.Use "Other Movie-Only Playlist" and see if there is another playlist that would work.

It would be helpful to know the title.

August: Osage County

August: Osage County

Out of curiosity, what is VID2 when you preview it? This sounds similar to a problem I was having with a disk before Christmas. It had a short studio/rating clip that got grouped with the main title for a movie only rebuild. The audio and subtitles were attached to the main title. After the video for the intro was processed, BD-Rebuilder would attempt to convert the audio. But it would fail with the same error you received. When the original audio was retained, the rebuild would complete. But the audio would be out of sync with the video because it started playing during the intro video instead of waiting until the main title started.

August: Osage CountyI just happen to be going by Best Buy today, I'll pick that one up (if they have it), run it, and see what happens.

It turns out I already had "August: Osage County", and mine is different than the one in gOOg's post. It only has one M2TS containing the movie rather than two.

[Edit] Never mind. I found an old disc that had that issue (fixed long ago), and I can repeat the error. Some new code must have impacted it somehow.

Hmm... unfortunately that means the error is in autocrop.dll and it's out of my control. It looks like it hasn't been updated since 2005.

I'll import a DVD and attempt to create an ALTERNATE backup, just to see if it's the same for all DVD sources.

Some changes I made when converting to the 3D version of TSMUXER has rendered some old code ineffective. It's what is causing the "ReencodeAudio() 00009 1801" error. Luckily the occurrence of the particular sequence of events needed to cause it is pretty rare. This might take some time to fix, as it has impacts across several modules.

Oh well.

Interestingly autocrop works when BD-RB upscales the DVD to 1280x720. (Upscaling is done directly without deinterlacing. In this case it doesn't matter because the DVD is progressive).
Autocrop seems only to fail with the original resolution 720x576i.

Hi,
Someone can say how option is for replace unwanted audio by blank audio ?

BD Rebuilder remove audio but don't replace it with a blank audio.

Thanks

[gonca]

Can you explain why you want to put a "blank" audio into the movie

[Cedvano]

Can you explain why you want to put a "blank" audio into the movie

Empty track to keep audio order and subtitle order.

[DoctorM]

I was under the impression this is exactly what BD RB does... audio tracks are replaced by blank tracks to hold the order.

[jdobbs]

BD-RB redirects the pointers for the removed tracks to the first kept track. If you add a blank track in you either have to waste space and time (by encoding a full length blank track), or add a shortened blank track. The second option is problematic, because then the audio and video lengths would mismatch.

IMHO it's better just to just update the pointers.Empty track to keep audio order and subtitle order.The order doesn't change.

It was Dead Snow 2: Red vs. Dead. Not sure if the issue with this disk was the same, but it sounded similar.

Hello,

I've an error while trying to make a movie only backup of ice age 4. this is a multiangle BR.
if i stay on default angle, no error. if i choose a specific angle (french or awhatever), i've got an error:

i still haven't succeed in making 3D movie only backup in batchs. i still have my error 55 (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1697577#post1697577) after the first movie. I've deleted all my bdrebuilder to be sure that it was not a customsetting error. without av, on another disk ... no way :(. it occurs only with 3D films. Everything is ok with 2d.
the last and only modified file (after closing the err55 message box) seems to be \BDoutputfolder\BDMV\PLAYLIST\00001.mpls

[jdobbs]

I don't think I've ever actually tried doing an movie-only backup from an alternate angle with 3D, although I can't think of why it would be different. I'll do some tests.

I'll also look at your other reported issue.

I made Screenshots from the steps, maybe that can help?!

[jdobbs]

I didn't mean for this to be an issue, especially since no one else seems to be noticing it.

I thought your response was that BDRB has trouble calculating sizes when the main movie covers multiple M2TS files, not when multiple M2TS files are present on the disk in general.

Yes, it was a full back up, but the movie was only in a single M2TS.

Don't lose sleep on this, I'll just raise the BD25 target manually.I looked at this one (Chicken Little). My original thought was correct. There are several playlists that include the main-movie M2TS (VID_00000). Playlist 00009 is multi-part. Interestingly, in addition to another M2TS it duplicates parts of the same M2TS (00000). So BD-RB decides not to keep the original due to complexity.

[jdobbs]

@emilio99

Any idea how the file sizes changed so dramatically between the two illustrations? Was the first one captured while the extraction was in process?

This one is really confusing. Have you had this issue with any other discs? Have you had success with other 3D discs?

[jdobbs]

Hi,

when using batch backup, i end up with an error at the end of the first rebuild:
http://syno.dupuy.nom.fr/public/Capture55.PNG

after clicking on "ok", BDRB is closed.
same behavior with other rips.Fixed this one. You'll see it in the next release.

[Lathe]

This isn't a bug report, so I hope you don't mind my asking a quick, general question...

I've never noticed this before after doing re-encodes with BDRB, but in this one case the result looks very good as usual, except I noticed that in scenes with slow pans, there is a noticeable 'judder'. I don't remember seeing this before. The one difference with this Blu-ray is that it is from The UK (I live in the US) It is a movie only encode with the original being about 31 Gigs which I used BDRB to reduce it to fit a BD25. I honestly doubt that BDRB has anything to do with it. I was just curious if there were some known causes of this phenomenon.

From what I've found so far in my reading, is perhaps a different frame rate...??? (could this be the case since the Blu-ray is from Europe?) Is anyone familiar with this?

Unfortunately, I just deleted the workfiles and everything because I burned the Blu-ray to disc as a backup and overall it looked fine. I feel stupid now because I didn't think to ask about asking here until after I did that. I could re-rip the Blu-ray to get the stats from it, but until I do that, I thought I'd go ahead and ask anyway, just in case there are some fundamental causes of this.

Thanks!

Is the judder not visible in the original?
There should normally be no need for framrate conversion because there is no longer PAL or NTSC. Blu-ray is blu-ray......
Did you change the resolution or deinterlace which may have forced a framerate conversion?

Hmmm, I guess you are right; so, no matter what country the Blu-ray is from, the standard is universal, right...?

I'd better go back and check what I did more carefully; I'll check the original too. Thanks!

[sneaker_ger]

There is always some judder with cinema movies. If it's not the usual judder check whether your Blu-Ray uses 24.000 fps. You will sometimes find such Blu-Rays in Europe but almost never in the US so maybe your equipment does not like it. In the US they seem to stick to 23.976 fps instead. (Or maybe it's some 50 fps stuff, a botched rate conversion even.)

while you're looking at it, i remember too, that when making batch backups, selected angle is not saved and the backup ended with default playlist instead of the selected one.

Fixed this one. You'll see it in the next release.
thanx :)

[RobertM]

I've seen this before -- 'La Mome' leaps to mind. That title was a 1080i stream, possibly at 30fps (there are numerous legitimate formats for Blu-ray). It had a messy judder type of video playback that was quite - quite - annoying, ruining an otherwise great film. The problem was on the original disc, so not the fault of BD-RB.

Interestingly, in addition to another M2TS it duplicates parts of the same M2TS (00000). So BD-RB decides not to keep the original due to complexity.

I didn't see those. The main movie playlist only calls one M2TS file and there are no other playlists anywhere near the same length so I didn't dig deeper.

I rechecked and see what you're talking about. There are playlists that call up just segments of the movie's M2TS file.

I believe that's from a bonus feature that shows the most exciting moments of the movie for showing off what a Blu-ray can do.

I can see how that would completely confuse things. Thanks for taking a look.

There is always some judder with cinema movies. If it's not the usual judder check whether your Blu-Ray uses 24.000 fps. You will sometimes find such Blu-Rays in Europe but almost never in the US so maybe your equipment does not like it. In the US they seem to stick to 23.976 fps instead. (Or maybe it's some 50 fps stuff, a botched rate conversion even.)I even see it in the theater. 24fps is above the perception level... but panning left-to-right or right-to-left often shows jumpy movement clearly. A good cinematographer knows that and slows down the camera motion.

I have lots of original BDs that you can see the movement.

[jdobbs]

@emilio99

I don't know what I was thinking when I first looked at your problem. Of course the .mvc has a different name... that's because it's in a different M2TS file.

I'm still looking at it, and haven't been able to repeat it yet. I have yet to locate a single point in my code in which an mvc file is renamed.

The audio/pgs files are being renamed (because they've taken the name of the MPLS during extract). It just happens that the .MVC file had the same name prefix as the MPLS -- and it got renamed too. The reason BD-RB tried to keep the original is because the filesize of the .MVC file was 0 bytes when checked (because it had been renamed).

It's fixed for the next release.

[omegaman7]

Jdobbs, you're clearly on a roll today ;) So, I'd like to grease your wheels. Donation on the way.

I have a question. More than likely not a bug report, but I notice the rebuilt Boxtrolls 3D, has blocky artifacts when under 3D mode only, and played back on Powerdvd 14. Whether full backup, or movie only backup. I suspect that a standalone will not have this result. I'm simply curious why a rebuilt 3DBD via BD rebuilder, would cause Powerdvd to exhibit this curious outcome.

[jdobbs]

Thanks for the support!

I'm not really sure, but I'd be interested to know whether it happens on a standalone. Best guess would be a bug in PowerDVD 14.

Try outputting to an ISO (OUTPUT_3D_ISO=1) in movie-only mode and see if that makes a difference. Maybe PowerDVD has a problem with in-mux 3D? It shouldn't since it is part of the standard, but you never know. (note: the HIDDENOPTS.TXT file is wrong, it says OUTPUT_3D_ISO defaults to 1, when in fact it defaults to 0. I edited it for the next release)

@emilio99

I tested BD-RB doing a 3D backup of an alternate angle. I had to go through about 30 discs looking for a disc that was 3D and alternate angles, but I finally found one. I had no problem doing the backup.

Historically you'll find that most reports of "Reading buffer overflow. Possible container..." have ended up being the result of a corrupt source. But since I hadn't tried any movie-only backups of 3D sources from alternate angles, I thought I should test it before coming to that conclusion.

I'd suggest that you might try re-ripping.

[jdobbs]

I have updated the first post of this thread with a link to the most recent update of BD-RB (v0.50.04). Changes for this release:February 16th, 2015 - v0.50.04
- Added an option to keep play-all sequences
to the IMPORT settings. Rarely a disc may
contain a structure that can mask some of
the wanted playlists/PGCs that appear to be
redundant. This option tells BD-RB to list
all playlists/PGCs even it one or more may
appear to be a "Play All" sequence. You
can then remove or keep after reviewing in
the menu/title editor.
- Corrected an issue in which imported DVD
sources with audio delays could create sync
issues when a discontinuity is detected.
- Fixed an issue in which PGS subtitles that
are a result of an import of an MKV were
not working when attempting to remux into a
DVD format.
- Fixed an error that could result in report
of "ReencodeAudio() 00009 1801" on multipart
sources that have leading audio anomalies.
- Corrected an error in which attempting to do
3D backups in batch mode could result in
"Run-time error '55': File already open".
- Fixed an error in which 3D sources might
experience a "Failed in attempt to multiplex:
MUX_MOVIE_ONLY.meta" and "Can't open file"
when rebuilding.
- Updated the included version of MKVMERGE and
MKVEXTRACT to a newer version (v7.5.0).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

[omegaman7]

I currently have a job about to finish. While it was reencoding audio to aac (MP4 output), it reached 115% of "Current progress". Not sure how you feel about that. I think that was the maximum. Because right when I attempted to capture the screen shot, it finished. JUST missed it lol. Probably just cosmetic, but I figured I better let you know, in case that could incur a problem.

[jdobbs]

If it was AUTO-AAC it doesn't surprise me. That setting uses a fixed quality output, and BD-RB can only guess at the bitrate based on some tests that I ran.

Yeah, that is what I thought... Appreciate all the input from you guys. Sadly, I guess it is just inherent in some of the original Blu-rays. You'd THINK that by now they would have had some kind of correction for that since to me anyway it seems rather primative to have a modern Blu-ray judder while just doing a NORMAL side to side pan for Goodness sake!

Yeah...it's from the Double Pack at Amazon. Pretty cool to revisit..or watch anew. :) I really liked Dan's personal interview..and what he shares with his siblings. Same subjects I've enjoyed all my life and continue to do. There are more extras, but I don't wait to "spoil" (slime?) anything. ;)

[Lathe]

I am TOTALLY Cool with a "Donate" button with a Neat graphic! It's an attention getter..when done well.

I strongly agree with this. I mentioned this before a while back that you indeed SHOULD have a MUCH more clear and obvious 'DONATE' button. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that; it's just a matter like everything else where people are concerned, we ALL need to be reminded (by a nice pretty looking button in this case :)) to do bloody EVERYTHING. So, please, by all means, do add a nice, attractive looking DONATE button!

This is absolutely NOTHING wrong with making it more clearly available for people to notice it and (passively) to remind them.

"Do it now JD... You are starting to feel sleepy... It's starting to sound good to you... Many lives will be saved... God will smile upon you... Do it now..." :D

@ Lathe

Well, what I mean is that to me it is 'sad' because either as you say it is camera error, which by now with any quality film should NOT happen. Or, if it is something inherent and unavoidable with any Blu-ray no matter what, then it is sad that with all this sharp new technology, no one has found a solution to that yet... It just seems like a rather primitive thing to have happen in modern Blu-rays.

[AmigaFuture]

I strongly agree with this. [..] we ALL need to be reminded (by a nice pretty looking button in this case :)) to do bloody EVERYTHING.[/I][/B] :D

JD might not dig this being rehashed again. I'll keep my reply short.. Needing to be reminded is very different than liking to be. Apple iOS does a lot of forced reminders until or unless those reminders are disabled. I'd prefer them disabled until the USER...enables. I prefer to Think for Myself than go into Auto-mode. :) If you're in auto-mode...you're very suggestible...or easily dictated to. Haskell is aware. Wink!

No....Camera user is aware, not the Camera. That's what JD typed. :)

Absolutely... I'm not commenting on being 'reminded' that there is a new version of the program. I am commenting that there should be a nice, noticeable 'Donation' button that will always be there to remind us IF we wish to send a donation. That way the hundreds of people using and enjoying the program will see it when using it and perhaps think, 'Oh yeah... I should send JD a little something'

[AmigaFuture]

@ Lathe

That was commented about in my last reply, as well as my suggestion to JD's original question. :)

[FilipeAmadeuO]

@all
I have a problem with Batman Begins BluRay. I backed up with BDRebuilder no error, but the movie does not start. I see WB logo and then when it goes for the movie, the Panasonic home cinema crash... I tested a movie only backup and it works.
The movie has a PiP feature.
To make it stranger it works normally on PC with PowerDVD.
Anyone has a similar experience or idea abou the problem ?
Thanks

[AmigaFuture]

1. You didn't post a Log & config...
2. If the Warner Bros logo shows, then the movie has started...? Or, does the WB logo show before the Movie attached WB logo shows?
3. Several possibilities..
4. I agree with JD, PowerDVD is a program that is more open to "bypassing" errors than a Standalone Player will usually. This has to do with experience.

1 - I attach the log.
2 - The WB logo shows before the start of the movie. It´s a different file

I tried reading the original movie and it also does not play on my Panasonic player. I tried to rebuild it with BDRebuilder without reencode and also does not work.

Very strange. Can it be related to the PiP ?
Also the BDrebuilder 00000.m2ts (main movie) it´s around 200mb bigger than the original one.

Anyone have a idea about this problem ?

[Ch3vr0n]

Well if the original doesn't play either, there's only 1 thing left to do. Test the original on a different standalone, if it doesn't work on that one either then you've got a defective original disc and logically the backup won't work either. Bdrb only processes what you feed it. Of the source is bad then the output will be too.

And no it's not pip related, if not very unlikely. Bdrb processes my pip discs just fine.

I tested in a different player and it works. So the question is why does not work on the Panasonic ?
Do anyone knows a way to check the commands played during the bluray playback (i know bdedit) ?
Anyone complained about similar bad Panasonic experience before ?
I asked before about the PiP because on PowerDVD the BDrebuilder version does not run correctly. The secundary audio is distorced...
Thanks

[Ch3vr0n]

Could be then that your player is just too old, over time the standard has evolved. You could check of there's av firmware update, but my panny bd85 still plays everything I throw at it.

As far as the pdvd and bdrb goes, hell pdvd often doesn't play original disc pip's either. That's not bdrb's but pdvd to blame.

[worknstiff]

@ Ch3vr0n RE: Could be then that your player is just too old, over time the standard has evolved.

I have a Panasonic DMP-BD30 that's from 2008. It will still play any of the latest "original" blurays and BD_RB rebuilds, although it's really slow to load, maybe 45 seconds to get past the loading animation. If I can get TMT5 to play the "original" disk, then after BD_Rebuilder finishes it will also play in any of my hardware players too. Either FilipeAmadeuO has a bad rip, a bad burn or he is trying to play it with a bad (software) player.

[omegaman7]

I tested in a different player and it works. So the question is why does not work on the Panasonic ?


My first player was a Samsung. 2008 model. It was extremely picky about backups that it would play. Now we have an LG. It plays literally everything I throw at it.
Generally, I don't have problems with Powerdvd. TMT5 however... it could be more hit miss. I haven't used it in months. Which is fine, since I believe they discontinued the product? Only problem I have with Powerdvd, is having to manually set my refresh rate to 24hz when watching 3D. Oddly, it sets it to 23hz initially. Causing a lag. Not really complaining though. Trivial bug :p

[javilu]

Hi guys,

I'm a newbie with BD rebuilder but I used the previous version several times with peerless results.
Turns out I upgraded to version 0.50.03 and shrank a Queen Blu-ray named "Days of our lives".
It has 2 60 minutes documentaries and plenty of bonus features.
I picked Verbose status reporting, custom target size (24000) high priority and highest (very low).
For the first time after many successful experiences, on the 2 documentaries the audio is out of sync by a few seconds while on the extras is perfect.
Tried twice with the same results.
Did this happen to anyone and if so, how did you fix it?
If you need any extra info please let me know.
I just shrank a Mr. Big bluray (Back to Budokan) with usual excellent results.

Thanks in advance for your help!
Javi

How do I pull the log so I can post it here?

[RobertM]

Wherever you told BD-RB to save the rebuild you will find a file called 'BD-REBUILDER.LOG'. That is your log file. Open that file in Notepad and scroll to the bottom and it will show you details on what happened during that rebuild. Just copy the entire contents for that film and paste it here, in a reply, and preferably enclosing it in 'quote tags' (just tap the 'quote icon' above where you enter the text in a message -- looks like the speech dialogue in a comic).

I posted the logs this morning but the posts did not appear.

[jdobbs]

For some reason they needed approval. I'm not sure why. I just approved them.

[jdobbs]

Hi guys,

I'm a newbie with BD rebuilder but I used the previous version several times with peerless results.
Turns out I upgraded to version 0.50.03 and shrank a Queen Blu-ray named "Days of our lives".
It has 2 60 minutes documentaries and plenty of bonus features.
I picked Verbose status reporting, custom target size (24000) high priority and highest (very low).
For the first time after many successful experiences, on the 2 documentaries the audio is out of sync by a few seconds while on the extras is perfect.
Tried twice with the same results.
Did this happen to anyone and if so, how did you fix it?
If you need any extra info please let me know.
I just shrank a Mr. Big bluray (Back to Budokan) with usual excellent results.

Thanks in advance for your help!
Javi
PS: Please bare with me, English is not my native language.Try it with the newest version (v0.50.04) linked in the first post. There was a fix that might be related to your issue. Please post a reply noting whether (or not) it fixes your issue.

Will try and will do.
Thank you.
BTW: Is it normal for the process to take around 30 hours or perhaps should I add more memory to my PC? Currently I have 4 GB.

@ javilu; RE: BTW: Is it normal for the process to take around 30 hours or perhaps should I add more memory to my PC? Currently I have 4 GB]

Currently according to your logs you are now running the encoding quality at (Quality: Highest (Very Slow), Two Pass). Personally I would change the quality setting to High Quality Default and take the checks out of the CRF one pass to allow two passes. This will usually cut your encoding processing time by about half.

[jdobbs]

Will try and will do.
Thank you.
BTW: Is it normal for the process to take around 30 hours or perhaps should I add more memory to my PC? Currently I have 4 GB.4GB should be fine, but 30 hours is a long time. The main factor would be the type of processor you are using. On my system (an AMD FX-8350@4.5Ghz) a typical movie-only backup takes about 2.5-3 hours. In high-quality mode pass 1 takes about .3x the movie length and pass 2 takes about 1x (so a 2 hour movie would be .6hr + 2hr + audio_reencode + rebuild_time = ~2.5-3hr).

The disc you were encoding has 3 3/4 hours of content. So a good processor might take 5-6 hrs or so. A newer intel i7 would likely take a lot less.

@jdobbs
Is there any tools to check the commands that are called during the bluray playback ?
I have done many testing on Batman Begins and seems that there is a command (or BD Java Code) that is incompatible with the Panasonic player so that´s why it crash.
Thanks

@ wakko709 RE: Now What?

Whenever I see the following:-
[11:48:24] Reencoding video [VID_00000]
- Source Video: MPEG-4 (AVC), 1920x1080
- Rate/Length: 23.976fps, 57,251 frames
- Bitrate: 17,159 Kbs
- [11:48:24] Reencoding: VID_00000, Pass 1 of 1
- Encode failed. Aborting.

and it immediately crashes it usually means that something is not set up appropriately on your system to do encoding. You need to delete the BD_Rebuilder Folder, uninstall all the helper applications, and just for good measure delete the app folder locations. After a reboot I would then run ccleaner and tidy up my temp files and registry entries and then do a "COMPLETE" reinstall following all the detailed instructions on the BD_Rebuilder first page. I think you will find that then BD_Rebuilder will do encoding without crashing, at least it did for me when I was having problems. hope this helps, worknstiff

@jdobbs
Is there any tools to check the commands that are called during the bluray playback ?
I have done many testing on Batman Begins and seems that there is a command (or BD Java Code) that is incompatible with the Panasonic player so that´s why it crash.
ThanksYou can look at the HDMV commands with BD-Edit. But I don't know of a tool that will analyze BD-J.

[jdobbs]

@wakko709

Recommend you uninstall and reinstall FFDSHOW, HAALI, and AVISYNTH. It looks like something has been hosed. Sometimes other software can intercept or interfere with one of these and cause failures.

[wakko709]

now that I've done that now what?

Could you try LavFilters

Regarding the blocky artifacts, under 3D mode only
Jdobbs, the stand alone player was able to play Boxtrolls 3D without a hitch. So it's clearly an issue with Powerdvd 14. I'll attempt another movie tonight, to see if it's isolated to that movie, or something else.

[Ch3vr0n]

It's not isolated to that movie or that player. All movies trigger those visual glitches. That's been established a long time ago. Believe it's got something to do with the inmux method used, although fully supported by the standard, no retail disc uses that so I believe they just didn't bother to add full support for it.

Standalone have to comply with the full standard too which is why standalone's DO play them just fine. It just doesn't make sense why the software players don't, they have to adhere to the same standard.

I forget which, but there have been one or two movies in this thread discussed, where inmux method was used. I could swear one was Avatar, but I guess not. I'm seeing an SSIF folder on that uncompressed backup.

I could also swear, that I've played at least one other movie ran through Rebuilder, in Powerdvd without issue. But I guess it may have been a SBS backup.

If only for my own eyes, I have to see this. It's not that I don't trust you. It's just the way my brain is wired :p

[DoctorM]

I'm probably thinking about this wrong, but I was playing around with a Quick Play backup project.
While editing the quick play menu, I unchecked a few vids that were unneeded.

The unchecked items were still encoded and placed on the finished disc. I assumed unchecking an item from the quick play menu was similar to blanking it, I didn't realize I had to do both.

Is that correct? If not I will test it on a few other discs tomorrow and see if they do the same thing.

[worknstiff]

@ DoctorM RE:The unchecked items were still encoded and placed on the finished disc.
I noticed when using Quick Play that after it finishes "Building" the pseudo Quick Play items but before you tell it to encode that you need to re-edit the Quick Play Menu items a second time. I remember it was creating another item from the newly created menu, and if I didn't take the checks out it would make that item and include it in the Quick Play menu. Maybe that is what's happening with your unchecked items too.

[Marty]

Hi people,

im newbie in BD Rebuilder using. I installed it according to instructions on first post. In step 2 i chose LAV Directshow Filters. Ready for use should be correctly.

Yesterday i tried from my 3D Edge in Tommorow, which i have in ISO (35 GB), target size i chose BD-9. Transfer took place without errors, but when I start it on my MMC, starts only in 2D. Other my ISO 3D´s my MMC played correctly.

Does anyone know where it would be a mistake?

@ Marty RE: when I start it on my MMC, starts only in 2D

It has been reported here over and over that playing anything (3D or otherwise) is problematic on anything but a "REAL" blu-ray player. I may be mistaken, as usual, lol, but I think if you are wanting help with your problem you will have to try playing it on something besides MMC. Is MMC a media player?? I have not heard of it, but I know there has been lots of discussion about problems playing 3D on streaming devices or even locally using PowerDVD or TMT.

[jdobbs]

It might be because the player doesn't support 3D on BD-9. While AVCHD has been upgraded to support 3D, I doubt that many AVCHD players currently support it. I can also say that BD-RB hasn't been modified in any way to treat it differently.

I'm not sure if your MMC supports it, but you may want to choose output to full or half SBS MKV when you want 3D output to be smaller than BD-25.

[J666RST]

Its the encoder that causes the blocks in 3D on software players. When I use Intel SDK I dont get any blocks on my 3D laptop, plays fine.

[jdobbs]

Its the encoder that causes the blocks in 3D on software players. When I use Intel SDK I dont get any blocks on my 3D laptop, plays fine.That makes no sense at all. If it were the encoder, then it would play blocky on ALL players, not just PowerDVD 14.

By the way, I am using PowerDVD 11, and I don't get any blocky output.

[espo]

Blu ray copys from BD_rebuilder often don´t play in PS3 anymore. The discs starts up, but than nothing happens. Didn´t have this problem a year back, but very often this last year. Have tried in different PS3 and the same problem in all of them. Is this due to new structure in Blu-rays or is there a Bug in BD_Rebuilder which make copys incomaptible with PS3?

Ive only got the Toshiba 3D software player and when I play a shrunk 3D blu ray without using Intel drivers it plays blocky, the blocks appear only in the MVC stream. Plays fine on a standalone.

When converted using Intel drivers the 3D is fine on both software and standalone players.

Thanks for quick reply, my MMC is Mede8er MED600X3D, 3D support is very good, next i try BD25, If this plays correctly and write here

[J666RST]

BD-RB always uses the intel drivers via FRIMEncode anyway.

Havnt done a 3D encode in a while but cant remember which command I add to my INI file but its either FRIM_SW_DECODE=0 or FRIM_SW_ENCODE=0 (might even be both) and the block are not there.

[jdobbs]

I can't comment on whether SW encoding makes a difference -- as I always use SW encoding (I don't have a processor that supports HW encoding/decoding). SW encoding/decoding is the default for BD-RB, you have to set hidden options to change that.

[omegaman7]

I can't say I'm surprised after everyones comment here. Gravity 3D also exhibits decoding blocky-ness in powerdvd 14. I find it curious, that the effect is at regular intervals. And it's only during movement on the screen. If there's no motion, there's no problem. I guess I either be patient for a fix, or plan on having very large backups. Or, backup to SBS MKV. Because there were no problems there.

[worknstiff]

@ omegaman7 RE: Gravity 3D also exhibits decoding blocky-ness in powerdvd 14.

Why are you opposed to spending 50 bucks for a "REAL" 3D blu-ray player. I backed up Gravity 3D using BD_Rebuilder to a BD25 which plays great in "perfect" 3D on my blu-ray player.

PS: and at Marty RE: Mede8er MED600X3D, 3D support is very good.

When I was shopping around for a dedicated MKV player I looked at Mede8er and if I remember correctly it did not have the ability to play "FULL" java menu's from a folder or from iso, because it's not a fully licensed blu-ray player. How can you do a 3D movie only back-up of a disk that contains both the 3D/2D?

[omegaman7]

Because, I don't like optical discs! Hence why I backup ;) It's a good thing HDD's are getting bigger. A couple of petabyte drives would be just what the doctor ordered lol

Yes Mede8er can not play BD menu. But then runs straight Movie only. If I therefore backed up BD with menu and everything (ImgBurn) for example as ISO, player omits menu and runs straight a Movie correctly in 3D, if it is ISO from 3D BD.

[worknstiff]

@ omegaman7 RE: Because, I don't like optical discs! Hence why I backup ;)

yes, BUT you can play MKV and 3D's from folders with "FULL" menu on your hardrive from these Blu-ray players also, not just disks, lol.

[omegaman7]

I've not had very good luck with the only two players I've bought. The LG is generally good, but it has it's own faults too... :p Computers, need only be taught ;) A Powerful HTPC, is all one should ever need.

Maybe that is what's happening with your unchecked items too.

I'm not sure what the 'Building' step is. I edit the quickplay menu, then select Encode. After the encode I checked the quickplay menu and those items were still unchecked.

Also, I have noticed a bug I can put my finger on: BD RB doesn't like remembering the Disc Title in the Quick Play menu. If you close BD RB and re-open it, the menu items are still renamed (if you did) but the title is cleared.
Also saving as a project preserves everything except the disc title.

Edit: Turns out the output contains 25 playlists for 22 vids. 3 vids were Blanked during re-encoding. Those extra playlists aren't valid. BDInfo won't let me examine the disc, opening the playlists in notepad looks like they reference M2TS vids that don't even exist... weird.
I'll definitely do some test builds and see if this is just what I'm working on, or something kaflooey with this particular disc.

[espo]

My guess would be that you are outputting to BD-5/9 without having "Strict AVCHD" set?

I have Target size BD-25 and Strict AVCHD is marked. It says BDMV when I put the disc in PS3, but when i click the movie, it tries to load, but the screen get black and nothing happens. I have tried make a Full backup, Movie&Menus backup and Quick-play backup, but non of them work.

[jdobbs]

That's definitely an issue with the PS3. It's possible, but unlikely, that it might be a disc issue. But a BD-25 is 100% compatible with any player that is BD certified. I've gotten no other reports of issues on a PS3, which makes me think it might be your player specifically.

"Strict AVCHD" has no impact on a BD-25 backup, BD-25's are never AVCHD.

You could try loading the final disc in MultiAVCHD. It will first ask if you want to use BD reauthor mode (select yes), and then if you plan to play it on a PS3 (again select yes).

Then just output the disc as a blu-ray. Obviously it would be good to test burn to a RW if you have one.

It´s so strange. All my old copies still play in my PS3 only new copies of new movies have this problem. But some new copies play. I also tried some copies at a friends PS3 with the same result. I will try a couple of others PS3 this week. I would like to think that there is some problem when BD_Rebuilder produce the structure or if it´s a problem when Imageburn produce the ISO to the discs?

I believe the issue with the PS3 is related to the in-mux method. The solution was to add OUTPUT_3D_ISO=1 to bdrebuilder.ini. This is the related post from back in July:

http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1687472#post1687472

[jdobbs]

Hmm... I don't remember that conversation. But, since the in-mux method is a part of the BD-3D standard... that would still make it an issue with the PS3.

[DarWun]

With the large number of questions you respond to, I would have been surprised if you had remembered it. Agreed that the problem probably lies with the PS3. Once I realized this I stopped doing 3D rebuilds as the end result wasn't really worth the effort.

Don't under estimate the Power of the Force with this programmer. Or his Post-It sticky notes. ;)

[javilu]

4GB should be fine, but 30 hours is a long time. The main factor would be the type of processor you are using. On my system (an AMD FX-8350@4.5Ghz) a typical movie-only backup takes about 2.5-3 hours. In high-quality mode pass 1 takes about .3x the movie length and pass 2 takes about 1x (so a 2 hour movie would be .6hr + 2hr + audio_reencode + rebuild_time = ~2.5-3hr).

The disc you were encoding has 3 3/4 hours of content. So a good processor might take 5-6 hrs or so. A newer intel i7 would likely take a lot less.

Thank you sir!
I just tried again and will burn on BRD tomorrow to test it.
I am curious as to why it says
" - Track 4352 (eng): Reencoding audio to AC3..."
When I didn't select any options to reencode audio...

[jdobbs]

Reencoding to AC3 is the default. It saves space, and at 640Kbs Dolby reports that it is transparent (it is indistinguishable from the original audio in double-blind tests).

"Strict AVCHD" has no impact on a BD-25 backup, BD-25's are never AVCHD.

However, if you are trying to play folders/files on a device like the PS3 (or the Oppo 83), the files must be < 4GB in size due to the FAT32 limitation, which is where the "Strict AVCHD" method is necessary.

I have an Oppo 83 that will play full Bluray folders/files (or AVCHD) from USB drive as if it is a genuine optical disc, but the drive can only be FAT32. Consequently, it would be really great if BDR was able to include file splitting when creating BD25 or BD50 builds (Full, Movie-only or Quick Play).

If this is too complex, I would welcome some guidance on the logic required to run BDR in say Quick Play mode, with a file splitting pass for each title.

[jdobbs]

I understand. But FAT32 is ancient technology (circa 1996). It's an unnecessary limitation implemented by the manufacturer of the Oppo 83 and PS3. Have you written them asking them to get off the dime and move into the 21st century? I hesitate to spend hours of coding time just to support something that should have been shelved years ago. We're in the era of 100GB video discs and 6TB hard drives. Does a 4GB file size limitation seem reasonable for something that is designed for high-definition video playback?

With that said, TSMUXER supports filesize limitation, so I could probably include it in movie-only output. Quick-Play is unlikely. Full Backups are pretty much out of the question.

the 40gb blacked screened on me the other 2 were fine.
the 40gb has different lasers to the newer ones if thats any help.

ps4 also worked fine

I understand. But FAT32 is ancient technology (circa 1996). It's an unnecessary limitation implemented by the manufacturer of the Oppo 83 and PS3. Have you written them asking them to get off the dime and move into the 21st century? I hesitate to spend hours of coding time just to support something that should have been shelved years ago. We're in the era of 100GB video discs and 6TB hard drives. Does a 4GB file size limitation seem reasonable for something that is designed for high-definition video playback?

With that said, TSMUXER supports filesize limitation, so I could probably include it in movie-only output. Quick-Play and Full Backups, though, are pretty much out of the question.

The manufacturers have all moved on as they want consumers to buy replacement gear: they have no interest in modifying older, still functional equipment. It's just unfortunate that the Oppo 83 still has untapped potential because of the FAT32 limitation.

I'm not expecting you to spend any time coding support for this "feature", but I would appreciate some guidance if there is a batch file or equivalent in BDR that I can modify to add a file splitting step to the usual processes: I have no idea how the Quick Play process works or even if it is amenable to intervention.

Don't waste your time including it for movie-only output as ClownBD already does that perfectly well, but it won't handle multi-title structures like BDR.

[jdobbs]

It's not as simple as a "batch file or equivalent". When it splits, the file titles multiply and the MPLS files have to be updated to support that.

[javilu]

Reencoding to AC3 is the default. It saves space, and at 640Kbs Dolby reports that it is transparent (it is indistinguishable from the original audio in double-blind tests).


It worked perfectly and not out of sync at all with the new version!
Thank you.

Hi people,

today I tried my 40 GB 3D ISO Edge of Tommorow to BD-25 with BD Rebuilder, but my player (Mede8er x600) it plays only in 2D :(

Edit: Now I tried play movie from BDMV-STREAM folder and now show it in 3D. Any ideas why playing from ISO is in 2D?

Hi,

so i tried convert same 3D movie with BD rebuilder and result i chose as BDMV folder and then convert it to ISO with TS muxer and this 3D ISO my player starts in 3D. So great work with BD rebuilder and thx for it.


Only subtitles are only in 2D. Its possible after encoding movie to BD-25 preserve correctly functional 3D subtitles?

only encoded rovi totalcode

[g00g]

Sigh... this is pretty ugly. Some changes I made when converting to the 3D version of TSMUXER has rendered some old code ineffective. It's what is causing the "ReencodeAudio() 00009 1801" error. Luckily the occurrence of the particular sequence of events needed to cause it is pretty rare. This might take some time to fix, as it has impacts across several modules.

Oh well.

Hi,

tested V.50.04 and the error is gone.

But still have a problem with encoding of the same video running alternate output to mp4. the error is:

GPU Decoder: CUVID currently supports only 4:2:0 chroma

This error only appears when running the option multi_process other than 0. Setting it to 0 causes no problems. The error is not reported in the log and bd-rb just stops proccessing after finishing the process step of indexing for DGDec.

I just tried to repeat the issue with the source used to fix the bug -- and it runs ok.

Are you using any AVS filters? It's odd that the color space would change on its own.

I aborted the batching process after the extracting process completed und the "reminder for DGDec" process don't start.
In TaskManager the processes auf bd-rebuilder und dgdec are present and show no activity (0% or idle).
I am not aware of using or setting any "special" filter settings.
In the past I am only using the settings of bd-rebuilder.

Ok will post before trying to fix issue myself to get documented.
This is my own rip using DVD fab 9.1.8.3
I have searched forums and can only find issues with Failed to retrieve video(that is not my issue!)
BD Rebuilder was unable to Extract the audio/subs.
All I was trying to do was reduce the Audio from True-HD to AC3 640kb

BD rebuilder keeps failing on this film,over and over again.
Finally did it with just using the stream with tsMuxer. No issue
Then used Dvd fab again no issue.

Where the heck is the mpeg 1 coming from the subtitle?
the only way to test is to remove the sub in BD RB?
or unless some else knows whats going on.

Because, I don't like optical discs! Hence why I backup ;) It's a good thing HDD's are getting bigger. A couple of petabyte drives would be just what the doctor ordered lol

I know, the convenience is lovely! I just fell in love recently with using a very nice USB 3 thumb drive to put even full Blu-rays on to watch; it is SO handy, that I am becoming spoiled too! :)

BUT... for all those who bypass physical backups (unless of course all your storage is duplicated) you always face that potential heartbreak of a failed drive... :(

[Lathe]

However, if you are trying to play folders/files on a device like the PS3 (or the Oppo 83), the files must be < 4GB in size due to the FAT32 limitation, which is where the "Strict AVCHD" method is necessary.

I have an Oppo 83 that will play full Bluray folders/files (or AVCHD) from USB drive as if it is a genuine optical disc, but the drive can only be FAT32. Consequently, it would be really great if BDR was able to include file splitting when creating BD25 or BD50 builds (Full, Movie-only or Quick Play).

If this is too complex, I would welcome some guidance on the logic required to run BDR in say Quick Play mode, with a file splitting pass for each title.

Ah yes... I too have the famed OPPO BDP-83 (although it is a little old now :) ) And recently, I had the pleasure of FINALLY trying a nice high quality USB 3 thumb drive (64 Gigs) to play stuff. LOVELY!

What I do, and I guess it would only work with Movie Only files and it ONLY takes a few minutes, is take the BDMV folder with the movie in it (even a full Blu-ray) go to the 'Stream' folder and grab the M2ts file of the movie and import it into TSMuxer. Set your output to AVCHD. Create a blank AVCHD folder on your thumb drive. Here is the key... Go to the 'Global' tab on TSMuxer and chose 'Splitting'. Choose 3 Gigs on the 'Split after size' drop-down menu. If you want, you can make it 3.9. Run TSmuxer and it will split the M2ts files into 3 or 3.9 Gig sizes within the BDMV folder that is now within the AVCHD folder on your thumb drive. Make sure you set the 'Destination' of TSMuxer to your AVDHD folder on your thumb drive.

Play the movie! :)

I hope that helps...

I found this doc online, its a spreadsheet of Forced Subs.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkGO8UqErL6idDhYYjg1ZXlORnRaM3ZhTks4Z3FrYlE#gid=20

I went through my movies that I've make mkvs with bd-rb & here are my results.

Worked...
Avatar, District 9, French Connection, Grand Budapest Hotel, Inglorious Basterds, Jack Ryan, Man On Fire, Mask of Zorro, Rise of the Planet of the Apes

Didn't work...
Get The Gringo, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Kill Bill I & II, 2012, Avengers, Book Thief, Capt America I & II, Cars II, Clear & Present Danger, Elysium, Looper, Passion of the Christ, Patton, Seven Psychopaths, Taken II, Thor, Wolverine, Zero Dark Thirty.

Looking at the spreadsheet the subtitle tracks are all over the place, so I'm not sure how bd-rb could handle it, except by having its own database of info.

[jdobbs]

BD Rebuilder scans through the entire set of SUP files that are kept from the source and identifies forced subtitles (each subtitle text line has a flag that identifies whether it should be "forced"). It then chooses the language you have selected in the INI (if there are more than one forced set available). So it would be hard for it to get them wrong.

The most common problem with forced subtitles is when you decide to keep only one subtitle track for a language, or don't select the language that has forced subtitles present. Sometimes the forced subtitles are in a SUP file other than the first one for a given language.

[meadrocks]

So what is the proper procedure for insuring that forced subs get included? Include all English lang subs? Is there a way to flag the forced sub so that its easy to see & include in the subs selection?

[jdobbs]

The only sure-fire way to make sure the forced subtitles are displayed in an MKV is to use SupTitle() and hard-code them. That's because there are so many players that don't recognize PGS subtitles.

If you don't want to hardcode them, then make sure you unclick "Limit to one subtitle for each language" in the SETUP dialog. The forced subs will be the last stream muxed into the mkv, that stream will contain ONLY the forced subs (those lines that are flagged as forced). Note, however, that some players have the ability to recognize forced subtitles within an entire PGS stream -- so the last stream could be redundant. But it's being there makes it possible for you to manually select it (when the player doesn't recognize forced subtitles), and then only the forced lines will be displayed.

[meadrocks]

I'm currently using a RPi running Kodi to play the files, as well as Mythbuntu. I'll have to experiment which option works the best on both players.

I use Digistor BD-25's..and sometimes 50's. Hard Disk Drives are sweet, and I use them also...but archived optical disks still make the sweetest backups when cared for well.

[meadrocks]

I ran bd-rd on Get The Gringo, kept all the English language subs, here's the output from mediainfo. I see no forced subs.

What am I doing wrong?

[jdobbs]

Look in the working folder for a .SUP file with a "9999" in the title. That would be the subtitle stream created from the original. If there isn't one -- then none of the selected PGS streams have forced subtitles.

[Sharc]

I'm probably thinking about this wrong, but I was playing around with a Quick Play backup project.
While editing the quick play menu, I unchecked a few vids that were unneeded.

The unchecked items were still encoded and placed on the finished disc. I assumed unchecking an item from the quick play menu was similar to blanking it, I didn't realize I had to do both.

Is that correct? If not I will test it on a few other discs tomorrow and see if they do the same thing.
I just experienced a similar case:
The disc contains 2 movies: 1x2D and 1x3D, mounted as .iso. In the Quick-menu I disabled the 2D movie and saved.
Nevertheless the 2D movie did not get skipped but the 2D and the 3D movie got both encoded; means disabling the 2D movie in the Quick-menu editor had no effect.
I think that I did this before and the unwanted files were skipped as expected. So I am not sure whether it is a recently introduced bug, or if this happend because of the special structure of this particular disc.

[jdobbs]

That's probably because the 2D movie isn't independent. It is one of the views (usually the left) from the 3D encode. So you couldn't remove it. Of course that's assuming the two encodes are of the same movie.

I forgot to mention that these are two different movies.
Encoding of the 2D movie has completed; encoding of the 3D movie is still ongoing but I would assume that both are going to be put onto the final disc.

Edit: I remember that changes have been made some time ago which allowed to edit and save Quick-menus even though the source is on a read-only medium. Has anything been changed back since?

I was planning on looking at the ability to Quick-Play to BD-5/9 for the next release (if I have time). But I haven't started it yet.

[meadrocks]

Look in the working folder for a .SUP file with a "9999" in the title. That would be the subtitle stream created from the original. If there isn't one -- then none of the selected PGS streams have forced subtitles.

For Get The Gringo there's a file named 00001.track_9999.sup in Workfiles dir. When I play the mkv, no subs are displayed. mediainfo also replies that no subs are forced.

When I play the mkv file & enable the last sub ( there are 3 English subs) it plays the forced sub & looks great!

There are 4 .sub files in the workfiles dir, 4608, 4609, 4610, & 9999. Yet when I play the mkv, there's 3 subs I can choose from. I assume they are 4608, 4609 & 4610, & I assume 4610 & 9999 are the same?

Also according to the spreadsheet, the Kill Bill movies do not have forced subs, also there's no *.track_9999.sup file in workfiles dirs of both Kill Bill dirs, yet when the bd disk plays in the bd player you see the subs. The spreadsheet says they are in sub6 for both movies. Since they aren't forced, is there a way to tell bd-rb to make the sub forced? When I play the mkv w/ the last sub (sub6) enabled, it plays the forced sub. Looks great! It would just be a convenience to have it forced.

I've ran mediainfo on all the titles that forced subs played correctly in my above post, yet none of them are forced, so I have to assume they are hardcoded in the video.

BTW I am running mediainfo on a Linux media server, here's the version info, but I don't think its giving false info.

I use Digistor BD-25's..and sometimes 50's. Hard Disk Drives are sweet, and I use them also...but archived optical disks still make the sweetest backups when cared for well.

Absolutely... and I REALLY like the relative peace of mind knowing that I have that physical backup too!

[jdobbs]

When I play the mkv file & enable the last sub ( there are 3 English subs) it plays the forced sub & looks great! That's the reason it's there. That tells me that the player doesn't see the forced subs -- so you have to turn them on. They have to be there, or BD-RB wouldn't have created the "9999" file. I can't speak to what mediainfo says -- but if it says they're not there -- it's wrong.Also according to the spreadsheet, the Kill Bill movies do not have forced subs, also there's no *.track_9999.sup file in workfiles dirs of both Kill Bill dirs, yet when the bd disk plays in the bd player you see the subs.

When I play the mkv w/ the last sub (sub6) enabled, it plays the forced sub. That just means that the original BD author didn't use the "forced" flags, and created a separate PGS stream that contained the subtitles to be displayed. They were then, probably, turned on at disc start.

Again, technically this isn't a bug report, since you do not support full backup to BD5s, but I wanted to report some odd behavior and ask a question.

The disc is Olive Films' "In Old California". With Strict AVCHD checked, the mono DTS core was extracted for the final disc.

I tried unchecking 'Do not convert DTS to AC3 (Blu-Ray only)'. At that point the audio track WAS re-encoded to Dolby but since it was mono, the output was 112kbps. That seemed awfully low, so out of curiosity I checked "Use 192 Kbs, 2 ch for AC3 encoding" just to see what would happen. (The answer is nothing of course, but it was worth a try.)

Anyway, I'm assuming the 122kbps number is the default for mono AVCHD discs (full backup or movie only), but it seems a bit low. Is there a way to increase that at all? 122kbps for mono is comparable to 448kbps for 5.1 channels. 160-192kbps for mono seems more in line for an HD source.

Btw, for those curious, Olive uses vary bare still menus for all their discs. The output (with a minor fix) burned on a DVD+RW with menus and DTS core actually plays fine on my Sony BDP-S790. (I was fairly shocked too.)

[Sharc]

I have some problems with 3D playback via standalone +TV which I thought may be related to the default in-mux format.
I wanted to compile an .ssif / .iso version to check if this would help. For this purpose I made a Movie-only backup with the .ini options FORCE_INMUX_3D=0 and
OUTPUT_3D_ISO=1. But I still got an in-mux single .m2ts which the player does not recognize as 3D.
Has the .iso/.ssif output option been removed from BD-RB, or am I missing something?

Edit:
It looks like the bug is in the .meta. In the MUXOPT the --blu-ray is missing.

If you want to keep DTS on a BD-5/9 you can add this:

OVERRIDE_AVCHD_AUDIO_LIMIT=1

BUT!!! Be warned. Since DTS is not a part of the AVCHD specification, there will be a LOT of players that won't play back the audio. So consider carefully whether you want to create a backup that only works "for now". That's the reason this option isn't documented.

If you are outputting in-mux 3D, the "--blu-ray" wouldn't be there. That's because the mux is being done to an M2TS, not a BD structure (due to limitations in TSMUXER). The BD structure is later created by BD-RB.

Make sure OUTPUT_3D_ISO=1 is in the "[Options]" area of the INI file.

Thanks. I was going along the lines of 640kbps for 5.1 (DVD would use 320-448kbps), 320kbps for stereo (DVD is usually 160-224kbps) and then mono would be 160kbps (DVD using 96-122kbps). That said, I'll go with it since the grain suffers on this encode.

I agree about not keeping the DTS, both for future compatibility and because 768kbps for mono is crazy overkill. I was just mentioning I was surprised it played on a standalone.

[Lathe]

Just a quickie...

I have a German Blu-ray ("R-POINT") and although it is about 20 Gigs and doesn't need any shrinking, it clearly is interlaced because I can see the combing effects in motion. If I import it into BDRB, will it automatically detect that it is interlaced and know what to do? The frame rate is 29.97. Will BDRB automatically re-encode it if I set the output size as BD-25? Or do I specifically have to add AVS script to force it to do that? OR... should I set the size as slightly smaller than it is thus forcing it to re-encode due to size and THEN it automatically will also de-interlaced it?

Thanks!

Thanks!If it will fit, BD-RB would decide not to reencode it. But, you could add FORCE_ENCODE=1 to the INI and it will reencode.

Yes, it will recognize interlaced and automatically handle it.

In most cases you really don't need to deinterlace if you're playing back on a standalone -- but if you want to, just select "Use DEINTERLACER on interlaced sources" in the SETUP dialog.

Ah, very good then. You are right; my stand alone does deinterlace it as it plays. There have been some rare cases in the past where it didn't (there was some odd one once where someone encoded an interlaced source as progressive, or something like that - I think in that one case I had to use an Avisynth script specifically for 'Field De-Interlace' or somesuch...) Also, in this case, playing it with VLC I could see the combing. So, in the future, if I really need or want to re-encode it specifically to de-interlace it, I do need to force it to re-encode if the size doesn't prompt that itself. I do have the setting chosen on the setup as you said; I guess it just isn't needed very often.

Thanks!

[meadrocks]

That's the reason it's there. That tells me that the player doesn't see the forced subs -- so you have to turn them on. They have to be there, or BD-RB wouldn't have created the "9999" file. I can't speak to what mediainfo says -- but if it says they're not there -- it's wrong. That just means that the original BD author didn't use the "forced" flags, and created a separate PGS stream that contained the subtitles to be displayed. They were then, probably, turned on at disc start.

Is there a tool that can edit a .mkv / .mp4 file so I can change a sub to be forced, in the case of Kill Bill?

[Chuckwagon]

Is there a tool that can edit a .mkv / .mp4 file so I can change a sub to be forced, in the case of Kill Bill?

Yes. I use mkvpropedit to set the forced sub in the mkv files I create when they don't get set for some reason. For example, with Game of Thrones episodes, there are 2 subs in the mkv (I have BDRB set to include more than 1 sub per language) when there are scenes with characters speaking foreign languages, but neither of the subs seems to be set as default and they don't display until I set the flag to default for the 2nd sub. Then it works right. The 1st sub will always display all spoken languages. For some episodes there is only 1 sub in the mkv, the "always on" sub, since there isn't any foreign language in the ep.

BDRB always seems to get the subs into the file, but the flag for defaulting the 2nd sub (forced set I assume) doesn't get set. It's easy to correct though. I've just assumed it was the way the discs are created, they do their subs in a different way.

Chuck

[gonca]

You can also use mkvmerge

[jdobbs]

You can also use mkvmergeI used to set it with MKVMERGE when I create the file, but I changed it for some reason... I'll have to look at it and try to remember why.

[Edit] Actually I remember now. It was because it appeared MKVMERGE automatically recognized the forced subtitles and flagged them. But, in retrospect, that may have been something related to MPC-HC instead. I'm testing it now, and should have a fix in for the next release.

[DoctorM]

Tracking an encoding today I noticed something: When BD Rebuilder encodes to AC3 from DTS does it always use the extracted DTS Core instead of the DTS HD MA track for the source?

[gonca]

@DoctorM
As the encoded AC3 file is non HD it makes little to no difference if the DTS HD or DTS core is used as source

So what how would I go about setting a particular sub to be forced? The man page is not all that intuitive. What are the command line options I need to use to set sub 3 to forced?

That's not true at all. Do you rip CDs, encode them to mp3 and then re-encode to AAC?

No, you don't, because it uses two different lossy codecs with different properties. It makes your output worse.

I'll wait for Jdobbs to weigh in. If it's a fluke, I'll try to figure out why it happened.

There are some that do reencode MP3 to AAC...because they don't have the original file. Some Apple devices don't always recognize MP3 as they do their "Standard" AAC. It doesn't actually make them "worse". If you use a higher quality for AAC encode, it can be negligible. Depends on the MP3 source. I always encode 192 higher. 128 lacks too much for me.

@JD

Noooooo pressure...I'm merely curious about your "Ghostbusters" finding if anything.

[Lathe]

Well, I'm gonna take a guess and say that it simply uses the DTS core @1500 and then converts it to AC3. I'm certainly NO expert, but I don't see why it would include all that extra HD mlp data just to convert the core to AC3.

To me personally, and this is just my own preference. If you are skipping the full HD anyway, whether you use the DTS core @1500 or AC3 @ 448, at that point you are not really talking about THAT much difference size wise (unless I guess you are trying to shrink a lot onto a BD-5 maybe, which I never do) I almost always keep the size at BD-25 anyway, so I usually always try to keep the full HD audio, but the DTS core sounds pretty decent too. I know JD himself has expressed that he strongly feels that there is almost no discernable difference in keeping the higher bitrate audio, but sometimes, depending on the source material, it can make quite a difference in surround and especially Low-end quality (depending on your system) But, even being an extremely avid, long standing, fairly particular audiophile, the DTS core usually does a sufficient job in my lowly and wretched opinion...

[DoctorM]

Regardless of who may or may not hear a difference (I admit I'm not positive I can tell a lossless DTS from its core), the point is BD RB has a lossless source to encode from. 640kbps DD is pretty good quality output but to start by throwing out some data before encoding doesn't make much sense. It's not like using the lossless track would increase encoding time or make the output take up more space.

[Chuckwagon]

So what how would I go about setting a particular sub to be forced? The man page is not all that intuitive. What are the command line options I need to use to set sub 3 to forced?

Here is an example to do what you asked. I don't know if it's the only way, or the "right" way, but it works for me. :)

mkvpropedit "Title of Video.mkv" --edit track:s3 --set flag-default=1

When I use this command, instead of track:s3 I use track:s2 for the 2nd sub track, and that works for me. Hopefully s3 works for you.

Cheers.

I'll look at it. The problem, I believe, is in the decoding. Most decoders use the core anyway (even if presented with an HD stream), and I think NicAudio may do the same.

[DoctorM]

Edit: Wow, I didn't realize what an unreasonable question that was. Googling around it looks like the only way to decode DTS-HD MA is with ArcSoft filters and LAVFilter or Eac3to.
I don't think ffmpeg can do it either.

[gonca]

Just reread your post DoctorM. Your're quite right, Arcsoft filters are required no matter which decoder is used.

I Have a problem with forced subtitles with 3D backups (BD-25). The feature "Turn Subtitles On" (FORCED ON) doesn't seem to work. If I check the Backup with Power DVD 14, the subtitles are off. With normal 2D backups, everything works fine.

[jdobbs]

I have updated the first post of this thread with a link to the most recent version of BD-RB (v0.50.05). Changes for this release:- Updated Quick-Menu code. Now multiple menu
pages are created when more menu items are
present than will fit on one page. Applies
to menus created with Quick-Menu or Imports.
- Added a new hidden option MENU_MAXITEMS that
limits the number of menu items to be shown
on each menu page. See HIDDENOPTS.TXT.
- Added MENU_BACKDROP_OPACITY as a new hidden
option. This allows you to customize the
opacity (transparency level) of the menu
backdrop, ranging from transparent to
completely opaque. See HIDDENOPTS.TXT.
- Corrected an issue in which bitrates set to
384Kbs in ALTERNATE encoding were assuming
stereo downmix (the rule should be applied
only when the bitrate is LESS THAN 384Kbs).
- Updated the included version of the FRIM
utilities and library to v1.24. This will
correct some reported decoding issues that
were present in previous versions of the
Intel Media SDK related to 3D processing.
- Updated the MKVMERGE command line so that
forced subtitles will be properly flagged
in the ouput MKV file.
- Corrected an issue in which, under certain
circumstances, the audio portion of a full
backup on a multi-part source might be set
to reencode as stereo rather than 5.1 when
LAV filters are in use and stereo mixing
has been enabled.
- Fixed a problem in which selecting audio
and/or subtitles as defaulted or forced "on"
from the streams list (in movie-only mode)
was not working when working for 3D sources.
- Corrected an issue in which 3D titles that
have been reauthored using Quick-Play mode
may not play back in 3D.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to
the latest release (r2538).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE
to the latest release (r2538).
- Updated the included version of X265.EXE to
a newer release (03/07/2015).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

Just reread your post DoctorM. Your're quite right, Arcsoft filters are required no matter which decoder is used.

In theory, if BD RB used LAV Audio for decoding, it would automatically use the DTS core by default, but if the ArcSoft .dll were present it would work losslessly instead. That's thanks to how LAV Audio was written.

Of course LAV Audio would need to be adjusted when called so any user settings wouldn't cause problems. (eg: number of output channels, bit depth, etc.) Not sure how difficult that would be.

If is copyrighted and cannot be included with BD-RB. It is also a part of a now defunct and unsupported software package.

Thank you for new version, jdobbs! :)
But I think nothing prevents the BD-RB offer this option(load the dll) for those who already purchased Total Media Theater for example.

...and the ArcSoft dll is not freeware -- even though some people treat it like it is. If is copyrighted and cannot be included with BD-RB. It is also a part of a now defunct and unsupported software package.
Understood. That's why it's nice that LAV audio would work whether you dropped in the .dll or not. The only difference would be how it works.

BD RB doesn't have to include anything not free that way.

[Sharc]

I don't think so. I don't think I've made any changes to the routines specific to Quick-Menu in quite a while.
......
Are you really positive that nothing has changed? It still seems to me that editing the Quick-menu (text of menu items, stream selection/deselection) has no effect when the source is on a read-only medium. Only the "Main Title:" of the disc gets changed. The rest (Title Edit: 01. ..... ) reverts to the default.
I think it used to work after you applied the fix in v0.45.04. Weird .....

I use the Quick-play menu even if I keep the feature only, if this should matter. Or does 2D/3D perhaps make a difference?

[Chuckwagon]

I have updated the first post of this thread with a link to the most recent version of BD-RB (v0.50.05). Changes for this release:
- Updated the MKVMERGE command line so that
forced subtitles will be properly flagged
in the ouput MKV file.


Just an FYI, the change worked for the the few MKVs I have tested so far. Previously the forced subs on these MKV backups were not selected and did not show during playback, but now the resulting backup of the same source as previous has the forced subs displaying. Great job! :)

jdobbs, using the parameter "REMOVE_IMPORT =1" content of imports folder has not been removed after the rebuild.

[Ch3vr0n]

maybe because there isn't supposed to be a space between "IMPORT and =", the tag is "REMOVE_IMPORT=1" not "REMOVE_IMPORT =1"

[soneca]

:p It was a typing error, in the ini file does not exist space.

@ jdobbs RE: BD Rebuilder v0.50.05
Updated the included version of the FRIM
utilities and library to v1.24. This will
correct some reported decoding issues that
were present in previous versions of the
Intel Media SDK related to 3D processing.

Great job, jdobbs! I just updated my encoding PC's intel drivers and held my breath wondering if it would work. I should have known it would, I'm doing a Frozen 3D right now that had given me problems in the past. Wow, BD Rebuilder just keeps getting better and better. Thanks again jdobbs, :thanks: U ROCK!

Jdobbs, does import function handle mp2 sound.
I imported mpeg video with mp2 sound track into program. However in final output there is no sound. This doesn't happen with other files I try.

Also for PAL sources which have 25fps, shouldn't be keyint be 25 or 50 for extended gop, unlike 24 or 48.

[jdobbs]

It should, as long as it is detected correctly as MPEG1 Layer 2 by mediainfo. I'm not sure I've tested it though. I will. It would need to be reencoded during import, though, since it isn't supported in the BD standard.

Yes, PAL GOP should probably be set to 25. I'm away from y office right now -- will look on return.

Quick play menu:
Could you check the issue reported here?
http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1712665&postcount=22468

Secondly, a minor (probably cosmetic) issue with Import/Quick Play settings: When I browse for a picture and the path of the Default backdrop picture is a bit long, it gets truncated and I have no control whether the wanted picture is accepted or not.

[RoyGBiv-inRI]

JDobbs, I have an issue with trying to make a compilation disc. I want to put 3 episodes of a show on one BD. I ripped the MKVs to the drive and used BDRebuilder on each MKV to turn it into BD format. The three episodes with their BDMV and Certificate folders are in subfolders of the main movie folder. That parent folder has only these 3 subfolders, and inside these subfolders are only the BDMV and certificate folders. My understanding from reading a post back in 2013 is that I click on file--import--BDs-quick authored and then navigate to the parent folder. That is supposed to search through the folders to find the 3 episodes. Instead, every time I click on the parent folder, it gives me an error message that it is not in BD format. If I click on the individual subfolders, those will allow me to import only that one episode.

I know I'm just being dense, but can you tell me where I'm going wrong?

TIA

SMK

[jdobbs]

It's probably because you're trying to import from a pseudo-BD folder. You should:

1. Set the background picture if you want to customize it.
2. Put the three MKVs into a folder together.
3. Use "Import Files" to import them all at the same time.
4. Edit title names and title as needed.
5. Let BD-RB create the pseudo BD folder.
6. Perform a full-disc backup.

[RobertM]

Perform a full-disc ack.

Sounds painful ;)

[jdobbs]

Hi jdobbs, I'm trying to back up Nebraska BD. The source has 3.0 DTS audio (F3, or front 3 channel as shown in VLC codec info).

Issue #1: After converting the audio to AC3, the final output has no dialog, only background/music. I think the dialog may be in center channel and was somehow discarded. Not sure if there is any settings to remedy this.

Issue #2: The alternative to issue #1 is to keep the DTS track, but none of the relevant setting seem to work. For target size BD-5, I tried toggling the "Do not convert DTS to AC3" to no avail. I also tried setting a custom target size and toggling the "Keep HD Audio for BD25/Alternate Intact" the but it keeps encoding DTS to AC3. Please advise.

Thank you!

[HWK]

You can't keep HD Audio/DTS on BD-5 or BD-9. Which bring me to question what is your custom target size.

Also post logs of BD-RB

Thank you!Yeah. I had a problem with that one also. Same thing. I meant to modify the code to handle it (it's a weird audio structure I've never seen before), but after I manually reencoded it I must have forgotten to go back and look at it.

To keep the DTS track you'd have to disable "Strict AVCHD" and add "OVERRIDE_AVCHD_AUDIO_LIMIT=1" to the INI. But I don't recommend that, as although some players will play it, the AVCHD standard doesn't support it and it's likely to be an issue at some point in the future.

[00faithle00]

I used TFM Audio Tool to encode the DTS file to AC3 then replaced the file in WORKFILES, then did a "resume job" to repeat the final remuxing. It came out great. Thanks.

@Floque

If you are encoding for blu-ray output to be played on a real player there is never a need (since in-mux encoding is 100% compliant with the blu-ray spec)... so why waste the effort?

[Floque]

Jdobbs Thanks for your time.
For it is important to be able to enjoy titles that are not sold in my country and I can only compar online once changing the original audio by the audio of my country. I can do it somehow?

I think he wants to add audio of his native language, to movies that don't already have it.
Or he wants to make it default. Very difficult to understand his intentions.

Thank you both for the replies.
I want to retrieve the copy SSIF folder again if possible. Currently that folder and its contents for quite some acutalizaciones it does not exist and some of my equipment is not working disk, just wondering if it's possible maybe it is not.

Omegaman7 effectively change the original language by maternal indioma mine and that already do so as jdobbs helped me in this issue.

Lately, I've been having issues with BDR creating output files. If I select the option for ImgBurn to make an ISO, the program goes through the encoding (encode and rebuild complete), launches ImgBurn (writing BD structure to ISO file), ImgBurn appears to do its thing (ImgBurn completed successfully), and the jom completes (JOB: XXX finished).

However, either the ISO is not actually created, or it gets deleted. If I subsequently open ImgBurn to burn the ISO, the ISO file is not in the folder where it is supposed to be.

Oddly, if I select output to immediately burn the disk with ImgBurn, that works.

This was never an issue until the last couple of weeks. It happened in 50.04 and now 50.05.

Here's a strange thing...
I thought changing the working directory might help. So I clicked on browse, and in the window that appeared were the actual output folders of the job I just ran. If I try to run backup again, I get the dialog to resume current job, and it picks up right at the end of the job, as expected.

These output folders do not show up if I browse to that folder via a GUI file explorer. They're not hidden files or folders. They just aren't there. I speculate that the ISO that should have been created is also one of these "ghost files". Explorer can't find it. ImgBurn (2.5.8) can't find it.

It doesn't make sense to me.

JD, any news about a fix for handling 59.94 FPS with IVTC_SELECTION=1? I also have to keep MULTIPROCESS=0 or setting to 1 or another number...BD-RB 0.50.02 to 0.50.05 crashes on second multipart pass, Alternate MKV 1280x720..keeping AC3. I'm keeping 0.50.01 because I only use it with these TiVo files. Otherwise, 0.50.05 for everything else. With 0.50.05, second pass happens and the video is at 23.976 FPS but the video looks like it's in slow motion while the audio plays at normal speed.

Is a view of what I'm using and not:

MULTIPROCESS=0 (Has to be off or 2nd pass crashes.)
FORCE_ENCODE=0
FORCE_NOENCODE=0
IVTC_SELECTION=1
#IVTC_METHOD=1
#IVTC_480i=1
#IVTC_TELECIDE=1
#DEINTERLACER_TYPE=5
SD_PROGRESSIVE=1 (I know it's not being used for 59.94 FPS files, but...left it in anyway.)

Of course, right click file in list and enable IVTC. I do think this is a bug. Am I correct since it's broken past 50.01?

What GUI explorer are you using? I see no way that the file is showing up if you browse from within BD-RB but not from that explorer. There has to be a difference between the times you're browsing in both.

Please post your BDREBUILDER.INI file contents.

What GUI explorer are you using? I see no way that the file is showing up if you browse from within BD-RB but not from that explorer. There has to be a difference between the times you're browsing in both.

posted below.

Getting an error during rebuild.

Disc: Outlander season 1 disc 1

Note: the log claims "Aborted per user request" which is not true; I did not press the Abort button at any point. BD-RB popped up an error message which had only one button to click, and once I clicked it, BD-RB stopped the processing.

Hmmm, JD will have to tell you exactly what happened, but based upon your FIRST group of logs, if you want to salvage what BDRB has already processed but for some odd reason will not rebuild, you can go the WORKFILES folder and use TSMuxer and import the .264 file (video) and whatever audio and subtitle streams there are that you want, and mux it to a BDMV structure, which is basically what BDRB was supposed to do when it choked.

Just thought I'd mention it in case you didn't know this or you wanted to salvage all the time you had spent already doing the encode...

@sieve

Based on your INI I am confident BD-RB isn't removing that folder. You may try disabling your antivirus software and seeing if that it is, I'd suspect that to be the next most likely culprit.

[jdobbs]

@colinhunt

The second error appears to be a byproduct of the first. Apparently when it received the first error the routine didn't make a graceful exit and it left a file open. I'll look at that -- it may even help me locate the root cause better. The first (root) error means I've exceeded the bounds of an array.

That section of code has been there for a long, long time -- so I'm thinking it has to be something very unique about that disc.

I uninstalled everything, cleaned out all references to BD rebuilder in the registry, then reinstalled everything. It seems to be working normally now.

New issue:

I'm trying to compile a series of episodes originally on DVD to a single BD. I've done this before, but not in a while.
I perform the import process and everything seems to be working normally. No errors.
But after the import process completes, the content contains only one episode as opposed to the expected 12.
I redid the import process but did not include the one episode.
The content still contained one episode, but it was a different one.

Am I doing something incorrectly?

I suppose it's possible the disc has a new scheme to defeat AnyDVD, but I haven't spent any time researching that yet.

Hi
I request help with this serious error in the encoder x 264-64.exe.

x 264-64 only run a few minutes, and then stops working abruptly giving the famous "appcrash" error.

Here the appcrash error details:

Am I doing something incorrectly?Are you set to full backup? If it's movie-only, it will just choose one of the imported titles.

@donnafmcu

Are you overclocked? X264 is failing 27 minutes into the encode. That usually means your processor is overheating and/or failing at that point. X264 is the ultimate test of stability for an overclocked system -- if that's the case, back it down some and try again. If you're not overclocked -- check your heatsink for dust buildup. Even a water-cooled system needs an occasional cleaning.

Thank you very much for your quick response, jdobbs.

I'll check overclocked my motherboard Configuration Setup.

Then I carried out a thorough cleaning of the cooling system and will return to testing.

Then I put in contact again with you to report my results.

Yes, that was it.

Hi
I want to thank your help that you have given to me.

I opened the box, or my desktop computer Cabinet. Then I perform a thorough cleaning of the fans, cooler you also, I also clean the dirt and dust on the heatsink the micro processor cooling grille.

After cleaning deep, BD_Rebuilder, (BD-RBV05005), do not cause any error in the encoder x264-64.exe, and carry out all works and re-encodings without any problem, and none mistake up to 100%

Here I leave you, the registration of the works of BD-RBV05005, carried out without any errors:

Thank you very much for helping me to solve this problem, jdobbs.

Greeting

[Ch3vr0n]

You also could start by using the original disc, there's not a chance in hell that that is an original disc. There's no retail disc that uses a disc volume name like that.

Agreed.

Donna, let me ask you why you think JDobbs should help you resolve this issue? The source is clearly a rip, downloaded from somewhere on the web. It may or may not be BD compliant,... how would he know? He could well end up chasing problems that are caused not by BD-RB, but solely because of something someone else did to that file.

Furthermore, helping someone use illegally sourced movie files would put this Doom9 site in legal jeopardy. I doubt you'll receive any further assistance.

This all right, if you claim that I am putting at risk this page and the Doom9 Forum, I have another alternative that proceed immediately with the task to take down completely my user, and my profile, to leave entirely to Doom9.

From my point of view, you would have to show and unhide the evidence of the crime that you accused me. This very bad to be the accuser, judge, and executioner of accusing a user without presenting evidence supporting alleged and hypothetical crime.

That you slight his work of accuser, judge, and executioner...

I am having trouble with bd-rebuilder since 2/2015, I can never answer the "random Questions" properly but that should not make it impossible for me to ask questions, I did DOnate maybe more then mosy, and I don't intend to waist space on paragraphs like this one ONCE I can ask like a normal person.

So I will try over and over till I get the random question right, then edit this post.

I cannot convert ANY Blu-ray to DVD using BDrebuilders "Movie Only" feature. I've tried everything reloaded everything tried:

force_encode=1

Keep_hd_dts_hd xxl=0
Hd_aud.0xx=0
Override_avchd_limit=1

I've re-installed EVERYTHING 2 times, and tried all the internal settings and still get Video w/o audio for "DTS-HD XLL" audio files in the movies.

I am TOTALLY buggered out.... This began happening right after the CLONEBD install this year and Clonedvdmobile another Slysoft product also took a nosedive. I noticed reviewing the the DVD's (using mediainfo) created that the vts_01_1.vob had 1 video and up to 3 audio streams whereas the rest of the vts_02 and on were missing the audio streams.

In several cases with multiple audio languages the foreign languages came through or the commentary came through when the primary failed.

I saw similar cases ranging from 2008 posted on doom9 and elsewhere but ALL the solution presented failed, what is the right combinations I may need in ffdshow, bdrebuilder (and special flags as stated above) or tricks to get this to work with reasonable aggravation using BDrebuilder ?

I really hate to babble on or fill this forum with logs but I've tried for over 2 months to fix it and the combinations of elements are so excessive that it would be another year to get it JUST right.

Any clues?

@duftopia:

- BD Rebuilder v0.38.0.3, Ok

This version is way outdated. Current version is v0.50.05

Secondly: Has your source "THE_SIGNAL_NA_00800" been preprocessed by CLONEBD or whatever?

[jdobbs]

@duftopia

I think you are running an old version of INSPECT. That program is no longer a part of BD-RB. You need to execute INSPECT from the HELP menu. Also, you provided the INF file -- but what I'd really need to see is the contents of BDREBUILDER.INI.for_encodeing=1
Keep_hd_dts_hd xxl=0
Hd_aud.0xx=0
Override_avchd_limit=1I have no idea what these settings are or where you got them... I'm guessing that some of what you intended are actually OVERRIDE_AVCHD_AUDIO_LIMIT, KEEP_HD_AUDIO, and FORCE_ENCODING.whereas the rest of the vts_02 and on were missing the audio streamsThis is confusing to me... are you talking about CLONEBD? There is never a "VTS_02" created by BD-RB -- as it only does movie-only backups to DVD.

[Ch3vr0n]

@donnafmcu

We don't need to provide any more proof than what you already provided yourself with the disc volume label in that log. No retail disc uses a volume label like that! Not even 1. The chances your source is an original disc is non-existent

I am using the latest bd-rebuilder v0.50.05

This is a RIP using Anydvd HD version 7.5.9.0

I've further tried converting the dts audio file to ac3 (using an external program called avatar) and inserting it into the workfile directory as another recommended solution but that also failed

BD-Rebuilder creats a standard type of dvd structure that includes all the .vob files, ifo etc...

* I am NOT CREATEING a BD5, BD9 blu0ray structured directory - I am creating a movie only DVD structure.

Thanks
Duf

@duftopia
Does this problem exist for this source only, or do you get the same problem with other discs too?

Edit1:
I don't have your disc, but I just did a Blu-ray to DVD backup, 2 audio and 3 sups, and all worked fine. No problem here.

In the DVD output folder you should see in the Video_ts folder:
Video_ts.bup
Video_ts.ifo
Vts_01_0.ifo
Vts_01_0.bup
Vts_01_1.vob
Vts_01_2.vob
Vts_01_3.vob
Vts_01_4.vob

but no Vts_02_xxx because you have only 1 title (1 movie).

Perhaps something is strange with your source file.
I would suggest to delete the existing rebuilder.ini and let BD_RB generate a new rebuilder.ini which you do not modify. I am not sure about the validity of the options:
DTSX_ENABLE=0
[OVERRIDE_AVCHD_AUDIO=1]
KEEP_HD_DTS_HD XXL=1

Edit2:
You could play the Vts_01_x.vob with a SW player like MPC-HC or VLC. Do you get the audio?
Or when you inspect the .vob with MediaInfo, does the audio stream show up or is it missing?
Is the Disc Cinavia protected?

[jdobbs]

@duftopia

What are you using to burn the DVD? I see nothing that would cause an issue, and it looks like the job is completing without error. As Sharc mentioned, you have a few nonsensical settings -- but they should have no effect. One thing I notice is that you have MODE=3 in your INI. That means that at least at the time you printed the INI you aren't in movie-only mode (although your log shows you were at the time of the apparently successful encode).

Using your log and INI file as a reference, you should look for a folder called "U:\HOLD\THE_SIGNAL_NA_DVD". That is what should be burned to disc. That folder should also contain a VIDEO_TS folder (which is indicative of a DVD structure). You can simply select it with ImgBurn -- which will check itself for correct DVD settings (they are different than BD) and burn it appropriately. Make sure you don't override it's suggestion and try to burn in the wrong format.

i have 2 issues relating to quick play backup.
1) how can i get quick play backup to eliminate the extras that are less than 35 min in length?
2) how can i set the quick play menu to NOT say feature presentation ... and SAY S1 E1 etc, my input is being ignored for the episode titles,
the main title i can change and it take that.
and it always seems to find 3 titles, 2 that are real episodes and 1 that is abunch of extras combined, like deleted scenes that i don't want.

thanks for your help.

thanks for your help.1) You can set the threshold (in minutes) via the menu in "SETTINGS/Import/Quick-Play Settings". The default is 15 minutes.

2) You can make the menu say anything you want: "Click MODE/Edit Quick-Play Menu", click on the title you want to edit (in the list), and edit the title name in the provided area. It's a lot easier if your source has been copied to a hard drive. There has been at least one report of problems when trying to edit directly from a disc -- although I haven't been able to repeat it (it works fine for me).

[jetli]

thanks for your response.
1) You can set the threshold (in minutes) via the menu ... worked fine.

2) i cannot make it says what i want ... it keeps defaulting to

01. Feature Presentation: [00:59:33.611]
02. Feature Presentation: [00:50:55.510]

despite the fact i want it to be S1 E1, etc.
it doesn't take.
it is an decrypted, mounted, .iso file, not that it should make a difference,
but i won't say what i put in the above fields, and keeps defaulting to

01. Feature Presentation: [00:59:33.611]
02. Feature Presentation: [00:50:55.510]

how can i fix???
thanks

[jdobbs]

1. Mount the ISO.
2. Copy the contents to a folder on your hard drive.
3. Use the new folder as input to BD Rebuilder.

But.... as I mentioned, I just mounted an ISO on my computer and had no issues editing the menu.

[jetli]

i copied files out of .iso ... it works!
the menu used to keep reverting to feature presentation every time you change exit and enter, and the results were always feature presentation.
now the menu stay at what i set it to and the results are good.

thanks for your help.

next question ...
if i have, 2 features out of 15, that i want, and those 2 are just bigger than a bd25 with multi languages and, let's say i want just english and
i eliminate the rest as usual, and let's say it set it to bd25 output THEN ...
how does your program know if i need compression and how much to give to each of the titles and
not over compress knowing that i only want 2 titles not 15, and eliminating alot of unneeded languages?

thanks

[duftopia]

I erased the bd rebuilder.ini file and started FRESH, still got the same results:

Yes you are correct about the vts files they are all 01-x where x goes up 1,2,3,4...

Mediainfo shows vts-01-1.vob HAS a video stream and 1 or more audio streams - (Ac-3) the rest of the .vob files are missing all audio streams

When I play ANY of the .vobs 1-5 in media player, vlc and powerplayer 9 they all lose the audio (dts-hd Xll sound file?).

ALL bds since installation of CloneBD earlier this year have gone awry with the same failure to convert to DVD issue in BD-Rebuilder.

I am NOT trying to burn the image yet since I have already created my share of cup holder dvds without audio.

The video_ts folders and structures are created exactly as stated, I will look into the mode flag, but it seems (mode=3 is movie only mode? also custom and target size #'s look odd but the folders mention ARE created correctly

[jdobbs]

dts-hd Xll sound file?There's no such animal in DVD.

[Sharc]

ALL bds since installation of CloneBD earlier this year have gone awry with the same failure to convert to DVD issue in BD-Rebuilder.

How about uninstalling CloneBD?
Did you deselect or modify some (audio) streams of the original with CloneBD before feeding it to BD-RB?
Can you post what MediaInfo reports from your source file?

[Sharc]

1. Mount the ISO.
2. Copy the contents to a folder on your hard drive.
3. Use the new folder as input to BD Rebuilder.

But.... as I mentioned, I just mounted an ISO on my computer and had no issues editing the menu.
Does this work for 3D (.ssif) structures as well?

Strange, I am absolutely sure that the quick-menu editing from ISO worked well here until recently. No idea as to why few of us have issues now. Windows update? Specific workflow? Interestingly, it seems not to fail consistently. I can always edit the Main Title but not the titles. I also noticed that the path of the Import folder is not fully copied to the main window of BD-RB. It gets truncated, but otherwise has no negative effect. I just mention this because it might have the same root cause e.g. something wrong with the string handling or similar. Just guessing .....

[jdobbs]

Does this work for 3D (.ssif) structures as well?Yes, it should -- but I'm not sure if I've tested Quick-Play with 3D. You'll notice, however, that it will take up about twice as much space (because of the redundant data in the SSIF folder).

[omegaman7]

The Invisible (2007)
This is a rather curious backup! Media info can't make heads or tails of the main .m2ts stream. This may be more of a question than a bug report. I set my output for 8150MB. The result is 6.27GB. A far cry from 7.98GB. With LPCM audio I wasn't sure what to expect. Especially considering Mediainfo couldn't read it properly. I generally keep HD audio, because any compressed stream cannot support 7.1, eh? Though I'm aware this stream is only 6 channel. So I'll be running it again, compressing the audio. Though I must admit, the video looks pretty good for under 3GB!

The last two directories here, appear to be split files of the main .WAV file. Split at 3.99GB. Reminds me of the FAT32 limitation. Since NTFS isn't governed by that limitation, is it a .WAV limitation? The First directory is what appears to be compressed .WAV. The original .WAV is 4.94GB, the resulting .WAV for muxing is 3.29GB. Why would it do this?
"U:\1 MKV movies\WORKFILES\00001.track_4352.wav"
"U:\1 MKV movies\WORKFILES\VID_00001.AVS.264"
"U:\1 MKV movies\WORKFILES\00001.track_4352.2.wav"
"U:\1 MKV movies\WORKFILES\00001.track_4352.1.wav"

I'll also be posting in the requests thread, relating to this particular title.

Looks like I may have another bug report as well. The number 23 output, is very strange. lol In fact, looks like all three titles in my batch backup, failed in one way or another. DGDecNV was the frame server throughout. Could be interesting to see how X264/LAVF handles it. Now I'm beginning to wonder if my DGDecNV is properly registered...

See attached image.

A is the BDR window, showing workfile path as c:\video\work

B is what appears if I hit the browse button. Note, the workfiles that appear in c:\video\work

C is a command prompt trying to browse to c:\video\work. System cannot find path.

D is GUI explorer of C:\video. Note, no "work" folder

The command prompt can't find the directory because you've got the slash the wrong way in the command - it should be

cd video\work not /work

[Ch3vr0n]

Wrong, the direction of the slash doesn't matter

Ugh... now data integrity is becoming a question. I procrastinate... so I've got a few titles left on my hard drive, that's more than a year old. I suspect a bad rip with "Mercury Rising". "The invisible" is still curious though. And "The Number 23" nearly doubled in length. Odd behavior like that, and how mercury rising came out, make me suspect bad rip. I usually rename folders according to the drive that read the disc. Since they didn't have it, I'm now wondering about my oldest LG drive :'(

[jdobbs]

I no longer buy LG drives... after several that each went bad after about a year (why did I keep buying them?) I switched to Pioneer. It's one of the better decisions I've made.

[omegaman7]

There is a chance that it was the iHES108 drive. Took me several rips to discover that one was a lemon. But I still used it, because the discs were brand new. Clearly it didn't need dust dirt or oil to create bad rips :(
Pioneer has been revered since the beginning. They were expensive, and LG was getting agreeable reviews at the time. You do get what you pay for though :S

Did you read my other post? I'm rather curious about your thoughts on the .WAV issue.

And I'm wondering if "The Number 23" was a seamless branching issue. I find it curious that it's the first one I've seen in quite some time, with a problem. And of course, it could be a coincidence. It could be something else.

[jdobbs]

The multiple WAV files are created by TSMUXER during the demux. It's to maintain compatibility with drives that may have a 4GB file limit. I believe the original WAV (RIFF) file format also had that limit, but it has been updated since then.

I assume you set a target size for the ALTERNATE output. I'm not sure how it could have undersized that much. The bitrate needed to reach the target is calculated after subtracting the space needed for audio & PGS files. I'll have to look at it and see if there is a glitch when using WAV files.

Yes, I pretty much always set for 8150MB output(MKV's anyhow). Though I'm leaning toward future encodes, favoring a particular bitrate instead. Obviously a 80 - 90 minute movie, really doesn't need that much space ;)

Appreciate your input :)

I think the audo #1 is the problem it leaves an ".mkv, .dts and even once a ac3" BUT the audio does not get integrated into the final DVD .vob files (except for the first "vts_01_1".

I bet its simple its always the OBVIOUS solutions that evade me.

Any news about "Ghostbusters"? Have you tested it yet? Thanks, JD.

[Sharc]

I did not modify anything that clone bd did, .........

ok, but what did CLONEBD do with the source??

The report of MediaInfo does not show anything unusual, but it's not the same file as in your original post "THE_SIGNAL_NA_00800" where you reported the problem.


I think the audo #1 is the problem it leaves an ".mkv, .dts and even once a ac3" BUT the audio does not get integrated into the final DVD .vob files (except for the first "vts_01_1".


Go into the WORKFILES folder. You will find the converted audio file like AUD_xxxxx_xxxx.ac3. Play this file with MPC-HC or equivalent. Does it play correctly and completely?

Where do you see the .mkv?

You should also find the file ALTERNATE.VOB in the WORKFILES folder. Open this file in MediaInfo. What does it report about the Audio?

[jdobbs]

I will look into the mode flag, but it seems (mode=3 is movie only mode?Never mind. I was looking at it wrong. A value of 3 is correct.

[jdobbs]

Any news about "Ghostbusters"? Have you tested it yet? Thanks, JD.I have a copy of "Ghostbusters" that I tested without issue. But it doesn't appear to be the same release as yours.

[jdobbs]

@duftopia

Can you capture a list of the contents of the WORKFILES folder within the working folder after the job has completed and post it?

Also, please don't replace files in the folder and attempt to rebuild. The requirements for DVD are different than Blu-ray, and you can't just use files as-is -- and swapping-out files with others you've created externally just makes debugging more difficult.

Start from scratch, let BD-RB do its job, and then post the contents of the WORKFILES folder.

[duftopia]

Excuse me for Cross-posting, I will NOT do it again. IF weed becomes legal in jersey (for medical purposes of coarse), I may also be hitting submit multiple times.

I use to have plenty of time to screw around (hack) with computer stuff but for the last decade or so with medical and financial issues it was hard, now I got time and the 3 - 4 month problem got on my nerve, plus my 90 year old uncle looks foreword to some dvdz, unless you intend to create BDrebuilder VHS, or maybe BDrebuilder reel (silent movies too old)

This test was run on a film called transcendence - its an ongoing issue that is happening on all the BD's I try to convert - so the older log simply reflects yet another BD that does not work

What cloneBD did to the source is unknown BUT I am reading this movie in using the AnyDVD HD 7.5.9.0 rip to Hard disk output, CloneBD is used on the resulting output of the Anydvd rip and so is bd-rebuilder.

04/03/2015 02:45 PM 1,792 AUD_00098_4352.AC3This looks like the issue. The DTS file is being reencoded to AC3 (it's required), but is looks like the audio encode is crashing -- as 1,792 is much too small for the AC3 output. You might try opening up AUD_00098_4352.AVS with Media Player Classic and see if it plays back ok.

[jdobbs]

Getting an error during rebuild.

Disc: Outlander season 1 disc 1

Note: the log claims "Aborted per user request" which is not true; I did not press the Abort button at any point. BD-RB popped up an error message which had only one button to click, and once I clicked it, BD-RB stopped the processing.

...

Update: I restarted the process and told BD-RB to resume. Almost immediately an error message popped up:

BD Rebuilder experienced an error 2008 [14:27:32] CorrectEPData() 00055 2008

I clicked OK, and again I'm told the process was aborted by user request:

I tried forcing a different minimum size -- but it still looks nothing like your streams list. In fact, many of the M2TS files in your list don't even exist on the disc I am using. :confused:

[Lathe]

Are you sure this is an original disc? I'm running OUTLANDER Season 1, Disc 1 now -- and it only has four episodes on it.

I looked at your log -- it is telling me that your disc has 19 episodes. I can't imagine an original disc containing 19 episodes of 1080p video.:scared:

Now, THAT is the classy way to bring up whether someone may or may not have used the original source... :cool:

[omegaman7]

I REALLY don't think this one was a bad rip JD. It's flawless, other than the output size. I compressed the .WAV audio to 640Kbps 5.1, and still ended up with a 3.43GB MKV file, where my output size was set at 7.98GB(8150MB). When I query the .264 file, and the .WAV/s, it's only 0.1GB from the proper output size. I find that really curious. It wouldn't be the first time I've had a problem with LPCM audio. I forget which other title at the moment, however. I'll hold onto the workfiles, until I hear from you. This hard drive doesn't usually run this type of task, so it's no problem lol

Well... except that I had to remove that post because I was wrong. :o
I saw the post last night but was too tired to reply, and was wondering why I couldn't find it today.

Regardless, it looks like I've wasted your time and resources: the problem was apparently caused by a bad copy. I don't know whether it was caused by a new copy protection AnyDVD couldn't handle, or the fault of a crappy BD drive (should always use the Pioneer 209...), but trying to process the output on BDInfo results in several error messages. Oddly enough the output plays fine on TMT5, but BDInfo and BD-RB both not liking it points to an error with the source.

I usually check the output thoroughly before running it through BD-RB. This time I didn't, and Murphy's Law did its thing. My sincere apologies for wasting your time; a donation will follow to cover at least a part of your expenses.

As you can see here, "Pretty Woman" also has an LPCM audio track. And despite my compressing the audio track to AC3 5.1, the low bitrate is suggesting extreme undersizing in this case as well.
I just unckecked all three "KEEP HD AUDIO' boxes to see if that has a positive result. But I was under the impression, that those only applied to BD-25/BD-50 ;)

Oh... thanks for that input. That should make finding the bug easier.

My computer is always at your disposal, ha ha :p No problem ;)

[jdobbs]

My computer is always at your disposal, ha ha :p No problem ;)I've fixed it for the next release. It was a logic error caused by code I added long ago to support intact audio for ALTERNATE presets.

[omegaman7]

Sweetness! No rush though. I've recently been freeing up space, and playing with the alternate outputs. MKV isn't my more employed method. AVCHD/BD-9 is(Depending on run-time). But, I've been experimenting. It was either this, or buy another large hard drive. And in my opinion, they're rather expensive at the moment. I'd like 6TB, but I'd prefer they came down below $200 first. This coming from a guy who spent $300 on the first 1TB drive :S

WOW! I feel a LOT better now... I bought my first 1 1/2 TB Seagate Desk drive for about $179 shipped :)

[jdobbs]

I can remember (way back) when I paid $360 for 640KB of RAM. I also remember paying $300 for a 30MB hard drive. Of course that was back when PCs were still running on an 8088 processor at 4Mhz -- 10Mhz if you were pushing the envelope.

Hmm... that may be giving away a little too much info about my age (one foot in the grave, and the other on a banana peel).

I guess I have both feet in...the 10mb hard drive for my DEC Pro 350 was a $5000 upgrade and the 20mb was $10,000. Circa 1978. I worked for Digital Equipment Corp back in those days and got the use of the equipment for home with my screaming 300 baud modem. The DEC PCs were running both 8088 and Z80 chips and could dual boot CPM and DOS.

[jdobbs]

Ok, I guess I'm "both feet in" too. My first computer was an S-100 based kit with an 8080 processor. Both the processor card and the 4KB memory card were each about the size of a PC motherboard today. It also ran CP/M. All the storage I/O was via cassette tape drive. They later had a Z80 processor board for it. My first "pre-built" computer was a Radio Shack TRS-80.

I did a lot of work with a DEC PDP-11 on my job back then -- mag and paper tape I/O. I also worked on a Hughes 4118 -- an 18bit, 1Mhz computer about the size of two refrigerators (not counting the Keyboard Printer/Punch that was used to control it) with real "donut" type magnetic memory -- I'll bet you never heard of that one! It was lots of fun debugging it by pushing a HALT button and looking at display lights showing the on/off bit contents of the registers and address bus -- then going through a 4 foot stack of assembly language listings to find how it got there.

Things have sure changed, haven't they?

But right about now somebody is probably wondering if this conversation might be a little off-topic... eh? I guess we gotta' stroll down memory lane sometime. It was a lot more "science" and a lot less like "business" back then.

[omegaman7]

My output came out a mere .03GB from the specified size. Gorgeous! No anomalies, and all is well.

I was like 12 when my folks were given a Commodore 64. That's the earliest computer I recall. I'm 35, and have MUCH to learn :S 'My' first computer was a Pavilion 7905. 1.4Ghz Athlon thunderbird, 512mb Ram if memory serves. Quite a bit more modern than you guys are talking about lol. Though it too is disgustingly outdated LOL!

DEC was all about the technology. The downfall of the most innovative computer mfg in the world was that the Sr.Managment started thinking with their stock portfolios. And Ken Olsen (founder) said that no one would want a computer on their desk and killed the PC development. But, with all of the "cloud" development, his vision of distributed processing has come full circle.

Yes, it is way off topic, but we old fudds need a stroll every now and then.

[duftopia]

This looks like the issue. The DTS file is being reencoded to AC3 (it's required), but is looks like the audio encode is crashing -- as 1,792 is much too small for the AC3 output. You might try opening up AUD_00098_4352.AVS with Media Player Classic and see if it plays back ok.

Nope Doesn't Play says the ac3 is the wrong format

Saw your other message:

My First Computer was a home made s100 with (I thing) a 8088 processor (I thought), 2k ram what a thrill to see that 1 /2 " inch led display things! (I javen't soldered anything for 40 years since then)

I ran cp/m on my APPLE IIe (first pre-build), with a Z80 Processor board, fortran 77 and that was made by Microsoft (sold on eBay), I was the language of choice, never had a cassette drive though my friends did on there (P.E.Ts)

I worked on an IBM 360, turning dials on CPU registers, looked like the 1970's colossus forbin project mag tapes, room of removable 30 MEG HD platters bigger than the average Tower PC - COBOL <sh&# forgot the period). A four phase Motorola Computer using 1970's LISP. teletype output, card punches. Played on a PDP 11 later running PASCAL

I loved assembly language, APPLES sneaky "sweet 16" register, pokes and peek to make cool screen pics.

RISC still beats CISC, I still have my Amiga 1000 (Signed by all the developers)

I THOUGHT we would have a colony on mars by my 40's with this technology

:stupid:

Now I don't even want a cell phone, I am still pissed that the HAM radio phones or SATTILIGHT phones were overlooked.

Well this is definitely off topic but you should really not get me started, I am well on the way of becoming a grumpy old man

I have a copy of "Ghostbusters" that I tested without issue. But it doesn't appear to be the same release as yours.

You posted that you ordered from the Amazon link I shared. Did it come with "Ghostbusters 2" as mine did?

Abundance isn't a reference to money alone. I remember when HDDs were pricey for the Amiga 4000 (68060/PPC- 2 different CPUs functioning together using the same RAM) (mine are still very much functional)! As things have progressed I've shrugged as evolution/change happens. If it's valuable to you..it's worth the price. Something we could all benefit from.

@JD, Have you been able to check into the 59.94 FPS 720P video which is rerenderable to 23.976 for 50.01 but not 50.05? Not any pressure..only reminding.

[jdobbs]

You posted that you ordered from the Amazon link I shared. Did it come with "Ghostbusters 2" as mine did?Nope, I didn't say that. Tried to save a couple of bucks, and found it in one of those "bins". I guess I should have just spent the $17 at Amazon. [edit] Ok, there was one left in stock at Amazon, I just ordered it. Lesson learned.@JD, Have you been able to check into the 59.94 FPS 720P video which is rerenderable to 23.976 for 50.01 but not 50.05?Lost the bubble on that one -- can you point me in the right direction?

[omegaman7]

Amiga, look familiar? lol
What sort of test would you like me to run?
I looked at your message on page 1116 (http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1710044&postcount=22311)
So your problem was with frame-serving via DGDecNV? I'm currently using 2041. Could be interesting to see what happens. I generally don't update, unless there's extreme benefit. Essentially, if it isn't broke don't fix it. But I'm wondering if that mentality is justified with software lol

2046 is as far back as I'm able to go.. I used to hear that saying a lot. If that were logically pure, playing with you some, then there wouldn't be many advances with humanity and other things. Anyway, that is what I bought from Amazon. I was going post a picture of it...but I thought, "Nah, I already shared the link since mine is original." That's why JD's passed. I'm pretty sure you're not going to find the 30th Anniversary release in a bargain bin yet.

For testing... I have BD-25 size set, Movie & Menu, High Speed, and all VID's blanked except the main movie, and 2 extras above it so it'll be rerendered. Both movie DTS and DTS-Express are set to become AC3. I have Quicker Encodes for Extras active. So VID's 00277, 00326, 00276 only enabled. All English is kept..only. I'm testing again with 2046 at this moment.

@ JD

59.94 FPS with 720p video.

I'll start over. I gave you a clip that's has a frame rate of 59.94 FPS. It's a 720p video from TiVo processed by VideoReDo TV Suite to MPG (commercials removed). You might still have it, I don't know. You looked at it, and fixed a challenge with BD-RB not rerendering that. So it was fixed in BD-RB 0.50.01. However, with 50.05 something became broken. Same options used in 50.01 are not resulting in smooth Alternate MKV. The video plays at slow motion but audio speed is normal, as expected. So the audio is way ahead. When you made the fix for 50.01 the only options needed are MULTIPROCESS=0, IVTC_SELECTION=1 then enabling it from right clicking the VID after Setup's "IVTC sources with 3:2 pulldown" enabled. Something changed/broke with 50.05 after trying different options, which is why I've been using 50.01 for 59.94 FPS conversions to 23.976 using MKV Alternate 1920x1080 - Intact Audio. I hope that helps.

[AmigaFuture]

@ omegaman7

I've avoided using my BD-RB already processed backup directory because I wanted a "pure" result. I switched back to DGDecNV 2046 (32-bit) for this test. It does the same as the newer DGDecNV.

Alright, give me a couple days, tops! I'm currently juggling some gigabytes around to free up space. I'm finding some needless redundancies here and there. I'll find the necessary space lol

So even 2046 (presumably) failed. Interesting. I'm eager to test this. I do enjoy a good challenge :)

Nope..if you won't do it >>NOW<< then you're useless. Hahaha! I've been doing that data juggling recently. Weird accord we have....to help JD, ourselves and others. ;)

Mmmm, I forget which poster and title, but multiprocess has been known to cause another issue in the past. Or at the very least, it was strongly questioned. I've opened up over 200GB of space in the last hour. I'll be able to test this at some point tomorrow :)

[AmigaFuture]

I remember something about that. I now it have it marked on a Post-It Note. "Until fixed by E.H., use movies+extras without MP active before posting bug reports." Rush (band), Portland, - July, are you going? PM me.

Now I'm going to check my BD-RB processed backup that I disabled all rerendering and MP wasn't active... Should go well.

[omegaman7]

@Amiga. VERY fascinating. I realize this isn't an exact match (didn't compress all tracks to AC3), but it still failed. The secondary video is sticking out like a sore thumb to me. I've had problems with those in the past. But as you say, 3-way processing may be part of the problem.

The Ghostbusters set from Amazon should be delivered today. I'll do some testing after it gets here.

[omegaman7]

Sweet! If you need us to run any other tests, to speedy up the process for ya, just let us know ;)

[gonca]

@omegaman7
Try running it with MP disabled if you have secondary video. For some reason secondary video and MP rings a bell to me. Last while I have been doing encodes to MKV so I haven't encountered this issue.

[omegaman7]

Yeah, Amiga and I, are leaning that way. Thanks for your input ;)

Now Jdobbs has something to go on :)

[gonca]

Actually, if either of you has the work files for the failed encode, see if the avs file that can't be opened actually exists.

[omegaman7]

Fascinating. I didn't even bother looking in the folder until just now lol :S I wonder why BDRB doesn't throw a message, in that regard.

Apparently, it doesn't exist.

[gonca]

Maybe this will help jdobbs track the issue down.

This is bringing back some foggy memories. I am not sure if this an MP issue or MP/DGDecNV issue.
For some reason I didn't think it was an actual BD_RB bug so never posted it.

[jdobbs]

2046 is as far back as I'm able to go.. I used to hear that saying a lot. If that were logically pure, playing with you some, then there wouldn't be many advances with humanity and other things. Anyway, that is what I bought from Amazon. I was going post a picture of it...but I thought, "Nah, I already shared the link since mine is original." That's why JD's passed. I'm pretty sure you're not going to find the 30th Anniversary release in a bargain bin yet.

For testing... I have BD-25 size set, Movie & Menu, High Speed, and all VID's blanked except the main movie, and 2 extras above it so it'll be rerendered. Both movie DTS and DTS-Express are set to become AC3. I have Quicker Encodes for Extras active. So VID's 00277, 00326, 00276 only enabled. All English is kept..only. I'm testing again with 2046 at this moment. Fascinating. I didn't even bother looking in the folder until just now lol :S I wonder why BDRB doesn't throw a message, in that regard.

I looked, and noticed it wasn't there. It's also in the log I posted. That's why I giggled that I should have noticed that first. It wasn't locked by some other program. Otherwise, even if the process had marked it hidden...BD-RB should have found it. :-)

@ JD, I ditto that sweet!

Hi.

I'm not sure if this qualify as a bug.

I'm trying to do a full back-up with non-english audio tracks and sub-titles removed but when i played the resulting copy in PowerDVD the non-english audio tracks and sub-titles remain in the context menu as a selectable option. Although selecting any of it will only enable english audio tracks and subtitles. This does not happens when using VLC.

This is my first post. Appreciate any help in this very helpful forum.

Thanks.:)

Thanks.:)Not a bug. You have to keep those options available -- as they might be selectd via HDMV commands or BD-J. Removing them might make a full-backup disc unplayable. Instead, BD-RB simply points those options at the first of the audio tracks that are kept.

@ JD

59.94 FPS with 720p video.

I'll start over. I gave you a clip that's has a frame rate of 59.94 FPS. It's a 720p video from TiVo processed by VideoReDo TV Suite to MPG (commercials removed). You might still have it, I don't know. You looked at it, and fixed a challenge with BD-RB not rerendering that. So it was fixed in BD-RB 0.50.01. However, with 50.05 something became broken. Same options used in 50.01 are not resulting in smooth Alternate MKV. The video plays at slow motion but audio speed is normal, as expected. So the audio is way ahead. When you made the fix for 50.01 the only options needed are MULTIPROCESS=0, IVTC_SELECTION=1 then enabling it from right clicking the VID after Setup's "IVTC sources with 3:2 pulldown" enabled. Something changed/broke with 50.05 after trying different options, which is why I've been using 50.01 for 59.94 FPS conversions to 23.976 using MKV Alternate 1920x1080 - Intact Audio. I hope that helps.I've fixed this for the next release. It stopped working due to changes that were implemented in v0.50.02:December 28th, 2014 - v0.50.02
...
- Corrected an issue in which deinterlacing
filters might be used on a 720p source.

Ok sir. Copy that.

Thanks for the quick reply.:)

[jdobbs]

I have updated the first post of this thread with a link to the most recent version of BD-RB (v0.50.06). Changes for this release:- Modified the one-pass CRF routines so that
a CRF encoding oversize of 2% or more will
automatically cause a second pass for size
correction.
- Added MENU_BACKDROP_AUTOSIZE as a new hidden
option. When set to "1" the menu backdrop
will highlight only the number of items in
the list.
- Modified MENU_TOP hidden option. Now it can
be set to any value from 100 to 910. This
combined with MENU_BACKDROP_AUTOSIZE makes
it possible to vertically position the menu
in the viewing space. Note: If MENU_TOP's
value would cause graphic overrun beyond the
bottom of the screen -- it is automatically
adjusted up so the menu will fit. So if you
want to justify your menu from the bottom of
the page -- you can just use the value 910.
- Corrected an error in which the output size
could be extremely off when outputting to
an ALTERNATE preset while certain audio
settings preferences were selected.
- Corrected an error introduced in v0.47.05 in
which multipart sources using DGDECNV with
multiprocessing can cause an error "Can't
open file: ..." for the secondary video
followed by an abort of the rebuild.
- Corrected an issue in which selecting the
dropdown choice for inverse telecining from
the streams list was not working for 720p
sources (59.94fps).
- Updated the included version of MKVMERGE and
MKVEXTRACT to a newer version (v7.8.0). This
fixes some reported ALTERNATE encoding and
output issues.
- Updated the included version of the FRIM
utilities and library to v1.25. Several
new options included, plus better stdin
command line support.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

Yay!! Downloading! Getting more decaf Tea ready... Also excited about the BACKDROP stuff!


Nice G.U.I. Addition! Thanks a lot for getting the 720p (59.94fps) to function again. :D :D I've only tested with a couple sources, but ahhhh!! It would be nice for the dropdown IVTC to be "remembered" for Batch, but I can handle it not functioning that way.

[cholla]

Using BD Rebuilder v0.50.06 .
With File/Import/Video Files (MKV,MP4,AVI,TS,...),
Mode/Movie-Only backup checked
Alternate Movie-Only Output checked
Settings/Encoder Settings/Automatic Quality Settings checked

Most of the files I try get this error:
runtime error '70′: permission denied
The error comes up early shortly after the import.

However some MKV files work .
They go through the complete process.

My OS is Windows 7 home premium .

Any help on the error will be appreciated.

[jdobbs]

Please post your log and your settings (BDREBUILDER.INI). It sounds like you don't have access to either the working or the import folder(s).

[Edit] I just imported 6-7 MKV, AVI, MP4, and MPG files. I'm not seeing any issues.

Agreed. I've imported several MKVs so far to test some stuff, and so far...all is well. All are created by other versions of BD-RB as well as this new 50.06.

Hmm... the setting for the dropdown IVTC really should be remembered in batch. I'll look at that.


I agree, and thoughts perhaps it was because of the previous bug. But, only did a short test. More coming.

[kaminar]

Hi all,

I've read 1000s of posts out of curiosity...and dozens of posts related to my issue/question. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Love BD-RB, so thank you JDobbs!

Issue:
When converting BD50 to DVD5, it creates 2 sets of subtitles (primary and secondary). Is this normal? Never saw it on BD5. Looks to be some kind of duplication going on.

Anyway, in the primary set of subtitles, BD-RB always keeps the first subtitle ON (even though nothing is ON prior to encoding). Note: When watching the movie, it's easy to turn it off via the player settings (PC or stand-alone blu-ray player). It's just an annoyance.

However, I'd like to disable this feature if possible.

If this is 'an undocumented feature with undesireable results' that can be modified or removed to fix this issue, I'd love to hear the solution.

Thanks again!

(see screenshot within PowerDVD--movie is playing but screenshot only collects data on the player controls, not the movie)

[jdobbs]

BD-RB isn't turning any subtitle on unless you default them on from streams list. It's your player that is doing that. The exception might be in a full-backup when the original disc had the subtitle defaulted on (very rare).

BD-RB doesn't create secondary subtitles, nor does it create two sets. In fact, there is no such thing as a "secondary subtitle" in the blu-ray standard. That is a feature of PowerDVD that can display two sets at a time (so, for example, you could have two on to make a comparison and learn a new language).

[kaminar]

Hi Jdobbs,

Not kidding, every single DVD5 has a primary and secondary subtitle set in PowerDVD. In the blu-ray or DVD player, you're right. There is only 1 set of subtitles. However, whether using PowerDVD, a stand alone blu-ray or DVD player, those subtitles are always on for some reason. I don't turn on any subs in BD-RB, so I'm not sure what could be doing it. Using the same settings for BD5, the subs are off as expected.

Has anyone else ever experienced this? Perhaps few use BD-RB to create DVD5 ISOs...

:(

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Jdobbs,

:(

Any help is appreciated.Part 1: I thought I just explained it. It is the player. It has nothing to do with BD Rebuilder. There is no secondary subtitle. It's physically impossible. No such animal. As for the subtitles being on, it's the player also -- check your settings in PowerDVD. Make sure you don't have the default language set to something other than what it should be.

Part 2: Before posting something you experience with a software player -- you need to try it on a standalone BD player. I can't respond to bugs in player software or to the player's idiosyncrasies. PowerDVD has lots of both.

Try deleting C:\TEMP01 and create it again. Also -- did you unzip all of v0.50.06 or just the EXE? There was a similar bug I discovered in MKVMERGE (v7.5.0) that was fixed with the latest release (v7.8.0, which I've included with v0.50.06).

[AmigaFuture]

Ahh, I have found some older MKVs (BD-RB) that aren't importing due to...supposed errors. However, when I reprocess them with MKVMERE (which doesn't show errors) they still don't process. I'm looking into it more. I'm wondering if it's a case of TSmuxeR being "too" picky or something? More testing..

[AmigaFuture]

Can parenthesis cause that kind of error?

I use parenthesis sometimes. I've never noticed the process stopped by them. Even when it's (1) in a file name by MKMERE.

More testing..Try replacing MKVMERGE.EXE with an older version (e.g. v4.5.0) and see if that changes anything. I went through a large list of MKVs and they all imported.

[AmigaFuture]

That's not needed. I've watched the extraction to TEMPIMPORT happen a few times now, and once MKVExtract is done TSmuxeR starts.

The fails I've seen are after "Collecting audio/video streams from source..." (MKVExtract) and during:
"Building pseudo-BD source structure..." (TSmuxeR). So, my guess is that it noticed some "flaw" in the video stream and terminates. Hmm.. I'm currently going through a large list also.

[AmigaFuture]

Pardon, I got MKMERGE in the brain a bit much... I meant MKExtract.. :eek:

However, I'll go ahead and go back to an older, like v4.5.0, and try it anyway with the failed MKVs.

Hi guys, I always use the One pass ABR encoding method and I never try out the CRF method, so what´s better for my encodings to bd 25? (I want quality) Anyway There´s some method on Bd rebuilder for encoding movies in two passes so depend of the scene Bd rebuilder will assign best quality?

Best regards

Best regards
My recommendation: In the Settings menu simply select "Automatic Quality Settings" and select the Target Size "BD-25". BD-RB will do the rest (like 1-pass or 2-pass) for you automatically.
Report back if you should - unexpectedly - not be very happy with the result.

You can also select "One Pass (CRF) Encoding" plus "High Quality (Default)". The encoding may take just longer without any visible benefit.
If you unselect both "One Pass (CRF) Encoding and "One Pass (ABR) Encoding) you will get a 2-pass encode.

But again, just trust in "Automatic Quality Settings".

Thank you for helping me, I was tried the automatic settings with Exodus movie and when I start the process in Bd rebuilder says "Automatic set to very fast CRF

I just can´t understand how a movie like Exodus, I mean, this is not a static mvie, this movie have effects, action, etc can be select like "very fast" ?

I just can´t understand how a movie like Exodus, I mean, this is not a static mvie, this movie have effects, action, etc can be select like "very fast" ?That can't be. Automatic Quality never selects CRF. It must be either ABR or Two-Pass. The automatic selection is made based upon the length (in minutes) of the movie, the size of the target, and the bias setting.

[AmigaFuture]

I've been trying older versions like 4.5.0 which produced very quick failure. Then used v5.6.0 and a failed MKV of BD-RB 50.05 release imports complete. I thought you were using more simple calls to MKVExtract and TSMuxeR was doing error handling. You have several diagnostic checks in place. I can understand not allowing a pure basic call...for all the error possibilities.

If it makes any difference my desktop computer which is the one that gets the error has Windows 7 HP 32-bit.

First to answer your questions.
I had unzipped all of v0.50.06.
I went ahead & downloaded on 4/13/2015 a fresh copy & did the same.
It has the MKVMERGE (v7.8.0 .

I deleted C:\TEMP01 but instead of creating it again I created a "TEMP" folder inside the BD Rebuilder folder .
I shortened the name of the file to "aerosmith02.mp4".
I also copied this into the BD Rebuilder folder.

All this didn't help.

So I disabled my antivirus & antimalware software .
I still got the error.
Then I closed everything else I coud with a software named "End it All". Except what I needed to run the OS.
Still got the error.

I then booted into Safe mode & my Windows 7 will complete the conversion in Safe mode.
So it is something stopping it from working in Normal mode.
I just can't find what it is.

BD Rebuilder also works on my Vista OS in Normal mode.
On the same file.
The Vista OS is on the same computer on a separate hard drive .

I haven't yet tested BD Rebuilder on my laptop which has Windows 7 HP 64-bit.

This isn't related to BD-RB bug report so I'll keep it short. Press Windows + R and you'll then see a Run box. In that type "MSConfig" but without quotes. Select "Diagnostic startup". Click "OK". It'll prompt to reset, allow it. After that...try BD-RB. If BD-RB completes with your Windows 7, then check what's unchecked in the Startup tab. Be careful with this program, it's meant for advanced users. I don't accept any responsibility if you "break" something; use at own risk. ;-) Remember, Windows 7 will stay in "Diganostic mode" until you run that program again and select "Normal startup" then "OK". :D

[jdobbs]

@cholla

I know you said you disabled them -- but it sure sounds like antivirus interference to me. But just as an experiment, right click on the BD-RB executable and say "Run as Administrator" and see if it gets around the issue.

I'm currently running BD-RB on Windows 7, 64 bit.

[AmigaFuture]

Maybe there are other ways to check for inconsistency? MKVExtract is pretty cool. Maybe........silent lucidity...leave more intensity to TSmuxeR? As stated, if x264 fails...the video is corrupt?

Maybe I'm missing something?

[GiovAHD]

Hi all, i have a problem with italian bd christmas carol...i have to reencode bd to write it in a blank single layer disc.
The main movie has a secondary video (second screen) and seems that BDrebuilder goes to encode only this secondary video and stop (the main movie instead remains like original); in this way bd is over 23 Gb and i can’t write it.
This is the report of bd-rebuilder if it can help:

Thanks, John.

[cholla]

@ AmigaFuture , I tried the "Diganostic mode" & still the same results .
It ended up putting a lot of my "Services" settings back to default. So I restored with Acronis with a backup I did a couple of weeks ago.

I know you said you disabled them -- but it sure sounds like antivirus interference to me.
I plan to pursue this route over the next couple of days.
I don't believe an antivirus program is the problem because I'm using the exact same antivirus & anti malware on Vista & my laptop wit W7 64-bit.
The laptop also worked with this .mp4 with no error.
As far as I know the settings I use in all are the same.


But just as an experiment, right click on the BD-RB executable and say "Run as Administrator" and see if it gets around the issue.

Good suggestion . I had already been doing that just in case.

Just to say this again it works with some .mkv files on W7 32-bit .
So far not with .mp4 ,.avi , or .m2ts .

@GiovAHD
Seems you have selected a BD50 as target, or used a custom target size. You should select a BD-25.

Secondly, you seem to be using an outdated version of tsmuxer. Use the one which is shipped with BD-RB.

[GiovAHD]

Size is 23.73 GB as you can see in my first post..that is a bd25 size.
I use tsmuxer 1.10.6 because the last version, in my opinion, is only good for bd 3d....but for bd 2d is better and more accurate 1.10.6 version.

From your second post - dbrebuilder.ini:
TARGET_SIZE=40000
CUSTOM_TARGET_SIZE=45000
With these target sizes the source will be copied intact which will result in an oversize for a BD25.
Or does your second post belong to a different case?


tsmuxer:
Who told you this?
Forget any support for BD-RB if you prefer your own tool versions. See the first post of DB-Rebuilder regarding tools.
BD-RB generates .meta files which are compliant with the new tsmuxer version.

Edit:
In your first post (the log):
- Decoding/Frame serving: DGDecNV [4-way]
I have not seen this [4-way] before ..........

[jdobbs]

@GiovAHDSize is 23.73 GB as you can see in my first post..that is a bd25 size.
I use tsmuxer 1.10.6 because the last version, in my opinion, is only good for bd 3d....but for bd 2d is better and more accurate 1.10.6 version.There are functions performed by BD Rebuilder that require the newer TSMUXER that is included. The new version does more than just "3D". There were a number of bug fixes and improvements in how it works. BD-RB took advantage of those improvements. Also, you are using a target size of 40000. That number doesn't come from BD-RB, so I'm assuming you modified it yourself. Of course it's going to be too large. The video isn't being reencoded because your target is too big -- resulting in your output oversize.

Secondly, 23.73GB is not the target size for a BD-25. If you calculate it out you will get 25,479,893,483 bytes -- and that won't fit. (23.73 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024). So even if you DID set that size (rather than what your INI clearly shows) it wouldn't work. That's also completely ignoring possible inaccuracies in encoding, historical issues with outside tracks on BD-R, and a number of other factors.

This is a completely self-inflicted problem.

Delete your INI, reinstall, and leave the default settings alone -- and you won't have issues.

[GiovAHD]

Hi Jdobbs and thanks for your reply.

1. I Don't use tsMuxeR 1.10.6 so for fun, but because I found some problems in the new tsMuxeR (eg it cuts, in several bd, a few seconds of the main movie and movie lenght of bd rebuilt is shorter than the original movie);
However I will make a test with the new tsMuxeR in this bd that gives me problems;

2. The set up target size of bd rebuilder does not allow to fill a blank bd up to its maximum capacity (23.2 GB), with my custom size (which is not a random number) all bd always go out of 23 GB (I did in this way many bd and all are fully functional), in this case the target used for bd however was of 23.73 GB as you see in my first post not 40 GB;

As you see I understand and I rate it well before doing things, nothing to chance.
Having said that I will make several attempts with new tsmuxer and then I'll tell you the result.

Thank you all, John.

Ps. with "4-way" activated pc starts four processes of x264 simultaneously and uses more ram accordingly.

[Sharc]

As you see I understand and I rate it well before doing things ......

Really?
Are you serious in believing that 23.73 GB will fit on a BD25? Read jdobbs reply carefully. Your oversize is just the proof that your problem is self inflicted. When you have been successful in the past with this custom size it was just by luck. The encoding size is never 100% accurate, and that's the main reason why BD-RB plans for some margin which you misinterpret as "undersize".

Unfortunately it will be because you think you know more than you actually do.

But just as an FYI -- you can set that value all the way up to 32 -- though anything over 4 is probably best left to future processors.

Frankly based on his response I think he's convinced he knows more than either of us, so I'm not sure further comments will be of any value. Oh well, it's not the first time. On to the next bug report.

[cholla]

Solved: Run-time error '70' Permission denied .
Windows 7 SP1 32-bit .
It was a permissions error.
Some of this didn't fix the error but are steps I did & left in place.
They may or may not have been necessary.
1. On the BDRB.exe I set Properties/Security/Advanced
Permissions, Auditing, & Owner tabs to Administrator Full control.
This didn't stop the error .

2. In the Compatibility Tab/ Compatibility mode / "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" checked
I first used : "Windows Vista (Service Pack 2)" /Apply/OK
This worked .
I then tried : "Windows 7" (this would be without SP1) /Apply/OK .
This also worked.
I then unchecked: "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"
Then tested a file again & got the error.

3. I decided to check: "Run this program as an administrator" .
This worked . So it should be running in Windows 7 SP1.
It's possible that only step 3 is necessary . I would try it first.

It worked on: .AVI , .m2ts , .mp4 , .mkv , & .mpg.
I didn't have any .mov files to test.

Before this I tried "Right click" "Run as administrator" on the BDRB.exe.
This didn't stop the error . I think it should have but it didn't.
I hope this helps anyone else with this error.

[jdobbs]

Great news. Thanks for the update.

[cryphog]

Hello jdobbs. Great program!! Got one question...Is there an option to set my own bitrate in backup mode?

[jdobbs]

Hello jdobbs. Great program!! Got one question...Is there an option to set my own bitrate in backup mode?Thanks, much appreciated.

Not directly. But you can do it indirectly by setting a custom target size. The bitrate will increase as the target size increases. You can also set a fixed CRF rate for encoding -- which let's you choose a quality level and the bitrate will rise/fall to meet that quality level.

[cryphog]

Ok. Thanks for the quick reply and keep up the good work!! ;)

Why do you say 'no way' about the size? I did this rebuild from a retail disc and the input was 24.14BG, as below. I don't have trouble believing that a disc from a different distributor might be just a tad smaller.

I agree, though, that it seems odd that it would want to re-encode the video when the size was already lower than the target.

Hi guys I have great doubt on my mind and I want to know the following, in Bd rebuilder as we know, we have option "Source patch" and "Working patch" Its means when I do clic Backup button the extract process just start and expand the temporally files separated on the Woking patch and when finish the extraction and just start de encoding process Bd rebuilder do the job on the same directory / hard disk ?

I mean, for example I have as a source bd50 a Hard disc d:\Movies\The Hobbit and I have too another hard disk where I want to encoding e:\bd25, so, this means Bd Rebuilder extract it in "bd25" directory followed by "Working" and when finish and start encoding, Bd rebuilder read the temp files from e:\bd25\Working and encoding to e:\bd25 ? Bd rebuilder use the same disk, same (put it in some way) directory for both process? Working and encoding? I say this for the reading/writing process so that means Bd rebuilder use all the encoding time the same hard disk? read from e:\bd25\Working and write to e:\bd25\ ?

And , when finish the encoding process I´ve seen , for building Bd extructure, Bd rebuilder needs the original Bd50 (in this case) from d:\Movies\The Hobbit to generate the new disk?

And if Bd rebuilder use all the encoding time the same hard disk, it means the "original" d:\Movies\The Hobbit It not need to be used until the end, all the work is on e: ?


Thank you guys, I hope you can help me with this I need to know

Best regards!!

@ Blurayhd RE: I want to know the following, in Bd rebuilder as we know, we have option "Source Path" and "Working Path"

This works just like it is labeled. The "SOURCE" is where the file is accessed from. The source is just a place where the file is located at and is read from there. The "WORKING PATH" is where the actual extraction of all the audio and video files are done and also where the final "WORK" of Rebuilding the finished folder or ISO takes place.

So then Working path and the final work, (where the files was extracted) and the encoding process , the entire jobs is doing all the time for only one Hard disk (that´s all I wish to know)

If I understand what you are asking, yes, the WORKFILES folder on the ONE drive is where all the work, extraction, and encoding is done and where the final product will be.

Oh, good reminder... I just finally got a little work. A very small donation is coming too (about time, really... :cool: )

[jdobbs]

The working path will contain the output at completion. The working path + "\WORKFILES" is where all extraction, temporary files, etc. will be.

Not a bug per se but I found something unclear in the HiddenOpt.txt.
"QUICK_USE_QUALITY=n n = 0/1 - if set to 1, BD-RB will use the current quality selection for Quick CRF encodes"

From the context, I'm assuming this applies to the Quick Extras specifically. Is the default 1 or 0?
If it's 0, what is it using instead?

[AmigaFuture]

It's default is 0. The answer is in how he writes. Which is why the "If set to 1..." is there. :)

Default is 0, means --ultrafast.
From the changes.txt of October 10th, 2009 - v0.30.03:
- Added a new hidden option "QUICK_USE_QUALITY=1" in
which, when set, BD-RB will use the currently chosen
quality level in quick extra encodes rather than the
default of "--ultrafast" mode.

[DoctorM]

Thanks for the quick reply, Sharc and AmigaFuture.

When doing alternate output, intact video and audio (1 track) to mkv, any movie with a truehd track ends with the truehd track and what appears to be the AC3 core as separate tracks.

2 screenshots --- workfiles and stream selection

[Blurayhd]

Hi guys I need you help here!! it´s never happens to me, yesterday I was watching Amazing Spider-Man that I previously was encoding with Bd rebuilder to dvd25 and like I said I put the movie for watch on my Blu Ray Samsung H5900 3d Wifi and when the movie lenght gets almost 25 minutes the movie just get muted and the splash screen appears warning about "you´re watching a movie with Cinavia protection" and the movie get sound again but every 10 seconds maybe sounds just mute and the warning appears again.

I looking on the web some solution and I heard Dvdfab in copy1.1 remove Cinavia, and I´ll be just wonder, grateful, happy, etc if you can tell me if Bd rebuilder can remove or desactive Cinavia? because so far I knew nothing about it!!

Thank for your time and I hope you can help me!!!!!!!

[jdobbs]

There is no solution, as yet, for cinavia protection. Some people have created patches for players so they ignore it -- but, to my knowledge, there currently is no removal method that doesn't significantly distort the audio.

I believe the best solution for making a backup is to use the audio from a DVD (which isn't cinavia protected).

[Ch3vr0n]

That's not entirely true, some people claim the cinex thing works good without distortion. The only catch is since there is no freeware HD encoder that the sound results in ac3 5.1. Slysoft also has a first solution out but that one does still have some audio issues. Output is also ac3 5.1

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 7 met TapatalkThe reviews I've read on cinex say something to the effect of "far from perfect".

On the other hand -- since BD-RB does not circumvent copy protection in any way (nor will it ever), this is subject matter for some other software.

[Ch3vr0n]

I wouldn't know, I don't want that crap on my system, I'm a 100% slysoft/elby guy. I can wait until they perfect it and why knows, maybe someone will create a HD encoder by then :-P. Bit you are right bdrb is as CloneBD 100% legal software you wouldn't want to add something to endanger it. Now back on topic :-)

Really? what you mean? what program is? never heard about something from slysoft

[Ch3vr0n]

Might want to update your anydvd then and check program settings

Has anyone use BD-Rebuilder on the John Wick movie? I get one scene that is out of sequence after the rebuild.

Thanks

Thank you @jdobbs for let us to use this amazing place to talking about this.

@Ch3vr0n You saying if I get any Bluray disc previously encoding with Bd rebuilder and and pass it to my hard disc with Anydvd hd and setup this I´ll can burn to another disc but without cinavia?

All I need to know, dear friend is how, what option or way to set for desactivate cinavia?

[DoctorM]

I'm working with Top Gun 2D BD. All bonus features are 480i mpeg-2 so I'm using 'quick encode' for bonus (at default CRF 20).
The disc reduction is about 50% and the extras are about 25%.

There are several 20-30 minute featurettes, but one inexplicably is being treated like the movie and getting a 2 pass encoding. It's not the longest at 22 minutes and there are no extra audio tracks versus the rest. I can't figure why BD-RB might decide to give it 2-pass at the feature's reduction ratio. If you used 'play all' it's not even the last file in the playlist (there is a credits .M2TS that followed).

Emphasis is mine to show video track that is the issue. I stopped the build, but later resumed and found that no other tracks were treated to 2 passes except the feature.

@DoctorM, I've seen that happen before. Forget the title. Jdobbs also had a logical explanation for why that would happen. I also forgot that LOL! I've simply accepted that it's one of those tiny things, that will take trial and error to iron out ;)

[Ch3vr0n]

@Ch3vr0n You saying if I get any Bluray disc previously encoding with Bd rebuilder and and pass it to my hard disc with Anydvd hd and setup this I´ll can burn to another disc but without cinavia?

no, that's not what i'm saying. All i said was anydvd has a cinavia fix. Anydvd's cinavia fix hooks into CloneBD, and requires HD audio downscaling to ac3 5.1. It's sort of an upgrade to its cinavia software player fix.


All I need to know, dear friend is how, what option or way to set for desactivate cinavia?

Cmon, put in some effort, you really cant miss it in program settings ^^. Bottom one. NOTE: though that this is an early release and far from fully completed (still some speed/echo issues some say). Which is why it's disabled by default.

[andref4]

Hi guys I need you help here!! it´s never happens to me, yesterday I was watching Amazing Spider-Man that I previously was encoding with Bd rebuilder to dvd25 and like I said I put the movie for watch on my Blu Ray Samsung H5900 3d Wifi and when the movie lenght gets almost 25 minutes the movie just get muted and the splash screen appears warning about "you´re watching a movie with Cinavia protection" and the movie get sound again but every 10 seconds maybe sounds just mute and the warning appears again.

I looking on the web some solution and I heard Dvdfab in copy1.1 remove Cinavia, and I´ll be just wonder, grateful, happy, etc if you can tell me if Bd rebuilder can remove or desactive Cinavia? because so far I knew nothing about it!!

Thank for your time and I hope you can help me!!!!!!!

You need an A/V-Receiver and you will have no Cinavia issues. Audio on connected devices must be set to bitstream and thats it.

Reason why it works: The sound with Cinavia watermark was send to your A/V Receiver but it will not return to your Blu-Ray Player and Cinavia thinks its all right and will not be activated. :)
If you dont have an AV Receiver your BD Player decode the sound, found the watermark in it and activate the Cinavia Protection because its not the original Blu-Ray :(

Or you must use an older BD Player (<July 2012) with no Cinavia chip in it.

[AmigaFuture]

When doing alternate output, intact video and audio (1 track) to mkv, any movie with a truehd track ends with the truehd track and what appears to be the AC3 core as separate tracks.

I had newest BD-RB process my "Contact" also. Same results with Intact Video/Audio and TrueHD with the AC3 core also there. I'm gonna check into it more. It's a good reminder because I don't usually keep HD tracks and it's part of testing.

That's why I have an older LG Player and bought 2 more of them. I don't use the Netflix and other programs included with the Player, to me that's too much like transcoding and I'm not into loss of A/V quality from that nor do I want to support "Streaming Only". You could also "hack" a newer BD Player's hardware, but that's advanced stuff and voids warranties.

It's a good reminder because I don't usually keep HD tracks and it's part of testing.It's probably done by MKVMERGE during the build because an MKV doesn't retain the AC3 core. One way to keep it anyway is to simply put it in a different track. I personally never keep HD audio (because I believe it's nothing more than sales hype [proven by double-blind tests]) -- so I've never noticed it.

Trial and error on my part or JDobbs? Is there some option I can adjust that may effect this?

[omegaman7]

Basically, Jdobbs has to encounter the problematic playlist/stream. And assess why it's determining it a non extra. I'm not aware of any current workaround.

[DoctorM]

Thanks. Then that one vid will just be a bit higher bitrate.

[Blurayhd]

no, that's not what i'm saying. All i said was anydvd has a cinavia fix. Anydvd's cinavia fix hooks into CloneBD, and requires HD audio downscaling to ac3 5.1. It's sort of an upgrade to its cinavia software player fix.

According to that I currently trying that.

Anyway I have to ask, I´m curious, in Bd rebuilder I always setup the following in Audio encoding options and check the follwing;

1- Do not convert DTS to AC3

2 Do not reencode to AC3

3 Keep HD audio for Bd25

Unchecked;

1 use 448kbs for AC3 encoding

2 use 192 for 2ch encoding

3 Apply dynamic range compression (No idea what is this anyway)

There´s some buttom that I have to check and uncheck for downscaling to 5.1?

[Ch3vr0n]

None of that matters, as I said the cinavia fix hooks into CloneBD. You'd still need to process bdrb's output through CloneBD or it will trigger.

Try this.. From Setup uncheck ALL Audio Encoding Options and do it again. I now have the TrueHD and only that audio track.

Is there something changed in "TWEAK_ALTERNATE"?
Just noticed that, in some cases, BD-RB set rc-lookahead to 24. This happens when i use CRF 18. Set CRF to 20, rc-lookahead is 40. The default for rc-lookahead is 40, am i right? Thought i did this tweak somewhere in the past succesfully...

INI file:

[jdobbs]

BD Rebuilder never changes rc-lookahead -- so the default (for the given quality preset) will always be used (unless you change it). The default value you reference [40] would be applied for the "medium" preset. I believe the default for "--preset slow" (your example command line) is "--rc-lookahead 50".

None of the presets defaults to "--rc-lookahead 24" -- so I have no idea how that could get there unless it is specifically called out with a tweak. IMHO it's better to always leave rc-lookahead at its default.

Here's some info I found online -- I can't vouch for its currency, but it's probably still accurate:–preset Use a preset to select encoding settings [medium]

[Groucho2004]

None of the presets defaults to "--rc-lookahead 24" -- so I have no idea how that could get there unless it is specifically called out with a tweak.
I'd have to look at the code (probably somewhere in encoder.c) but IIRC, keyint 24 would clamp rc-lookahead to 24.

[Sharc]

I'd have to look at the code (probably somewhere in encoder.c) but IIRC, keyint 24 would clamp rc-lookahead to 24.
Yes. From my records:
ultrafast => 0
superfast => 0
veryfast => 10
faster => 20
fast,medium,slow,slower,veryslow => 24 (constrained by --keyint)

[jdobbs]

I'd have to look at the code (probably somewhere in encoder.c) but IIRC, keyint 24 would clamp rc-lookahead to 24.Thanks. I can see how that would make sense.

@Glarioo

If Groucho2004 is correct, then you can just modify the ALTERNATE preset so it is using auto-GOP. Just add:

vKeyint=Auto

to the preset description you are using in ALTERNATE.TXT. That will set the keyint parameter to 10x the frame rate (so it would be 240 rather than 24). Of course that could limit seeking accuracy to about 10 seconds (depending on the player). The only time you wouldn't want to do that is if you are trying to maintain Blu-ray compatibility in your ALTERNATE backup.

[Glarioo]

Blu-ray compatibility in alternate backup is not so important to me, i play my mkv backups on a Dune mediaplayer.
I'm gonna add vKeyint=Auto --rc-lookahead 50 in TWEAK_ALTERNATE and do a test tonight.
Jdobbs, Groucho2004 and Sharc: thanks for your for your expert explanation. Tomorrow i'm gonna let you know what the results are.

[Glarioo]

If you don't need BD compliance, why do you put so many restrictions in your command line (--bluray-compat, --ref 4, --b-pyramid none, ...)? You're using "preset slow" but override several settings of that preset with following switches. That command line makes no sense.

I don't use BD Rebuilder so I think others will be better suited to advise you on the proper settings.

[Sharc]

@jdobbs
Is there a specific reason for keeping --bluray-compat in the commandline even when encoding to .mkv alternate output?

[jdobbs]

Yes. I start with those settings -- and then override those that I want when BD compatibility isn't necessary. I spent a lot of time developing a balance of settings that I believe to give the best results -- and maintains compatibility on the widest variety of players. For example: b-pyramid causes issues on some players (it shouldn't -- but it does). You might want to get better quality with "preset slow" -- but it sets "ref 5" -- which is illegal for BD at 1080p -- so I specifically override it (I like having control and not trusting overall settings like "--bluray-compat" when I'm not checking the code with every release).

Working with these settings for the past several years, responding to bug and incompatibility reports, and knowing the impact is why BD Rebuilder backups always work -- where other software backups sometimes don't.

I personally like to keep BD compatibility in my ALTERNATE backups -- so I can simply mux-and-burn later if I want. Overriding BD compatibility gives very little benefit in most circumstances -- so what's the point? The one obvious exception might be GOP size -- that's why I put that option in the ALTERNATE file. I also have a hidden option that allows you to set b-pyramid to "strict" rather than "none".

Is it also possible to change min-keyint? And how do i add that?

Understood, makes certainly sense.
I was just wondering why you leave --bluray-compat in, although you set all parameters explicitly anyway for the reasons you explained. But of course double stitching does no harm at all.

Failed to retrieve audio during extract(or muxing for that matter) is usually a sign of a bad copy. But without more of your log, or settings, it's hard to say.

I made my second or third quick menu'ed disc yesterday (Big Hero 6). Testing it I see it run the animated menu which is somewhat short and then it just stops on a black screen. (I can still make selections, but it is against a silent black screen).

I don't know if my prior BD sources just had longer menus so I didn't notice or if it BD RB is supposed to loop a video like the original disc.

The quick menu backdrop plays only once. I don't think there is an option to have it looped. Maybe this could become a feature request.

[jdobbs]

The quick menu backdrop plays only once. I don't think there is an option to have it looped. Maybe this could become a feature request.Yeah. I've been planning to have the menu loop, but I've not gotten around to it.

[DoctorM]

Yeah. I've been planning to have the menu loop, but I've not gotten around to it.
It looks like a lot of BDs play an initial menu video and when it finishes switches to a different M2TS that can be looped there after.

I don't know if that is even possible to be duplicated.

[jdobbs]

It looks like a lot of BDs play an initial menu video and when it finishes switches to a different M2TS that can be looped there after.

I don't know if that is even possible to be duplicated.Sure it can be done easy enough. I already find the MPLS for the menu, so finding the two M2TS files is easy. But 90% of the time the second video is just like the first -- except maybe without an intro sequence. So I don't know if it is worth it to take up twice the space for the second M2TS.

[AmigaFuture]

I've noticed something interesting recently. I'm curious if anyone else has noticed it. First, I thought it to be BD-RB + Alternate MKV. After doing those checks with "Contact" I thought I'd go ahead and have BD-RB make an MKV with the original (since I like commentaries and Scores when included) audio. It processed without errors and my Blu-ray Player wouldn't play it because of something about the video format being "bad" (it would really be sweet if they'd offer more than generic errors..). It's 1080p from the original. Then I used the Alternate 1080p with Intact Audio at Good quality. BD played fine. So, scratching my head...I processed the whole BD with Movie and Menus as BD-25 High Speed. BD Player played the disc. Rechecking some MKVs, I've noticed it's not only "Contact". So, for now, when Alternate MKV *seems to fail* I'll just process as movie only or full BD and use that for an MKV.

What preset are you using? Intact? Reencoded?

[AmigaFuture]

Here it is with same details as before except less words. MKV played from USB Hard Drive connected to BD Player as well as copied to BD Player's Hard Drive (using BD Players basic copy menu). BD-RB kept as original 1080p. Wouldn't play with BD Player, both ways. Alternate Intact video and audio used to make MKV.

Then played from BD-RW 25 after BD-RB rerendered from Movie & Menu Auto-Blank extras in High Speed Mode (2 pass, DGDecNV).
Saw that functioned as expected in BD Player from disc. Then I used processed BD for Alternate Intact Video (1080p) and Audio MKV. Played fine with BD Player. More helpful? I'm not sure why rerendering it made it different. I haven't had the opportunity to check it further, yet. I don't think it's related to BD-RB, but that's why I typed the question.

[jdobbs]

BD Player's Hard Drive? What kind of player has a hard drive? Or possibly it's a hard drive connected via USB?

It sounds as if your player possibly couldn't handle the original bitrate/maxrate when it was packed within an MKV. But that's a stab in the dark. Weird.

[Yordan5]

I have not kept very much up to date with the development of BDRB for about a year. Have I missed something important with regards to MVC 3D output to ISO as the current version of BDRB refuses to create one (at least on my PC)? I added OUTPUT_3D_ISO=1 to the Config. file but it does not seem to work and I keep getting the standard BDMV folder structure instead of ISO. See log below:

I think your are mistaken, you should check your INI file (which wasn't posted). It appears you don't actually have OUTPUT_3D_ISO=1 set. If you did, you would see "Creating MOVIE-ONLY BD-3D ISO..." in your log rather than "Rebuilding BD-3D file Structure"

Is there a way to use an older version of BD Rebuilder? I much more prefered the v0.46.13 beta when that came out for example. Any other current version just seems to cut off the last few seconds of clips on things like trailers, music videos or deleted scenes and it's driving me crazy! So again, if there is a way to use an older version can someone please tell me how to do it! Thanks! May the 4th be with you ;)

May the 4th be with you ;)You can use any version (from v0.49.07 and up) you want, there's nothing to stop you -- just don't post any bug reports on anything but the latest release. There have been a lot of changes since v0.46.13 (that's over a year old), and many of them are very important. So I certainly wouldn't go back. As for "how" -- just download and install.

It would make a lot more sense to give an example of the issue so it can be corrected than to use an old outdated version. I've gotten no other reports of an issue in which anything is missing from the reencodes.

I understand what your saying, but I have tried to go over this issue for almost a year and no matter how many times I try to correct it, it just keeps doing that and v0.49.07 still causes that and I fear that no matter what I do it will continue with each newer version. I guess I am the Achilles heel of the users. So if you could please tell me the proper steps to using v0.46.13 it would be appreciated because no matter what I do for now, nothing will help. Thanks.

Sorry. But that's just not going to happen. I'm not going to open myself up to releasing old, outdated, buggy beta software. I suggest you give the information I've requested.

I think your are mistaken, you should check your INI file (which wasn't posted). It appears you don't actually have OUTPUT_3D_ISO=1 set. If you did, you would see "Creating MOVIE-ONLY BD-3D ISO..." in your log rather than "Rebuilding BD-3D file Structure"

This is what's in the INI file. I added the last line OUTPUT_3D_ISO=1 before starting the job:

@Yordan5

It's in the wrong place. You have it in the [Paths] area. It should be in the [Options] area.

Thank you for the quick reply. Totally overlooked this.

After placing the command OUPUT_3D_ISO=1 in the OPTIONS section of the INI file (rather than PATHS like I had it originaly) the log still says Rebuilding BD-3D file Structure but this time it did output to ISO.

I don't know... I've heard that you are pretty darn handy with chicken bones... :cool:

I don't think this is a bug, probably just a lack of understanding on my part. I have 7 DVDs that I wanted to import to a single BD-25. I put all the DVDs in a single folder and it weights in at 28.1 GB. I used the Import – DVD(s) – Quick reauthored to import the DVDs to a BD structure. Now it creates an Imports folder that weights 27.1 GB. OK so I only need to reduce the size by some 20% and it will fit into a BD-25, so let’s process it…. It took more than 24 hours and it created a 87.2 GB ISO! I had a BD-25 target, write to ISO, full backup and no “Quicker” encode for extras.

My guess is that Rebuilder is upscaling from 720x480 to 1920x1080. What am I doing wrong? log and Ini included.

[jdobbs]

It's not upscaling, your settings verify that. But even if it did -- it wouldn't have an effect on the output size.

I can tell you this, though. If I was working on something that took that long, I certainly wouldn't have REMOVE_WORKFILES=1 set in my INI file. Now to try again, you have to reencode everything.

I'll have to add up all the bitrates and framecounts in the job and see how the target should have sized. But I've never seen an oversize like that before.

[Sharc]

…. It took more than 24 hours and it created a 87.2 GB ISO! .........
That's strange. From your log I would estimate:
- Total video size: 20.4 GB
- Audio (192 kbps) estimate: 0.9 GB
Including a muxing overhead of say 7% yields 22.7 GB alltogether which looks ok........

[musiclover]

Am I right in thinking that is it not (yet) possible to compress a blu-ray containing both the 2d and the 3d version of a movie?
I searched this thread, but could not find the answer.

[Ch3vr0n]

You think wrong. That's perfectly possible, the only catch is that windows 7 or higher is required by FRIM for encoding/decoding that's all.

Can you give me some pointers how to do this. I tried it twice. The first time I got only 2d and the second time only 3d output.
I run windows 7 64bit.

[Ch3vr0n]

Pointers? Full disc backup, that's how I did it. Works just fine on even more complicated discs such as resident evil which has 2d, 3d and anaglyph 3d all into 1. All I can say is there has to be something you're doing wrong

1. Full backup. In settings "Enable SBS 3d movie-only output" NOT enabled. Results in only 2d output.

2. Full backup. In settings "Enable SBS 3d movie-only output" enabled. Results in only 3d output.

[Ch3vr0n]

That's setting has no effect on full backup. As it said: 'movie-only output' and all that does is converting normal 3d to side-by-side. Post your settings INI file so jdobbs can take a look. And a conversion log for both outputs. You have to be doing something wrong

Sorry guys. It was a false alarm and not a bug. After a clean install all works fine.

[AmigaFuture]

BD Player's Hard Drive? What kind of player has a hard drive? Or possibly it's a hard drive connected via USB? It sounds as if your player possibly couldn't handle the original bitrate/maxrate when it was packed within an MKV. But that's a stab in the dark. Weird.

The LG BD590 has an Internal 250GB HDD and a single USB 2.0 port. If it weren't able to handle the bitrate/maxrate then why do many other 1080p MKVs (made by BD-RB) play without need of rerendering? That's what I'm wondering.

I think your are mistaken, you should check your INI file (which wasn't posted). It appears you don't actually have OUTPUT_3D_ISO=1 set. If you did, you would see "Creating MOVIE-ONLY BD-3D ISO..." in your log rather than "Rebuilding BD-3D file Structure"

Mmm..seem like you might need another vacation, JD. :) ;)

[Yordan5]

jdobbs, any chance you take another look at 3D subtitle effect when processing MVC 3D titles? If I remux a movie using TSmuxeR only, the remuxed image still plays with 3D subs but once the movie is processed with BD-RB the subs lose the 3D effect.

[jdobbs]

If I remux a movie using TSmuxeR only, the remuxed image still plays with 3D subs but once the movie is processed with BD-RB the subs lose the 3D effect.Yeah, I'll at look finding a way to do it. But it isn't as easy as you might think. The reason you are keeping them when using only TSMUXER is because the 3D effect is a part of the original video stream. It goes away when you reencode. If I use that same (most common) method I would have to modify the video stream itself -- which takes additional time in processing.

[gonca]

$50 on the way to help with your efforts.

[jdobbs]

Wow. Thanks!

[gonca]

I guess donations are really slow in coming in,sadly, if I get a Wow for a small donation.

[jdobbs]

Slow is an understatement. It isn't unusual these days to go a week between donations -- and they are typically much smaller than yours. I truly appreciate those like yourself who keep it going.

Actually I think someone else donated today as well, so I may just run down tomorrow and look at new releases to test.

But... like I've said before -- if I were in it for the money I'd be mowing lawns instead.

[Yordan5]

Slow is an understatement. It isn't unusual these days to go a week between donations...

I'll send another $30 your way today. Hopefully you'll get a chance to have a look at the 3D subs one day. Thank you for developing BD-RB.

[jdobbs]

I'll send another $30 your way today. Hopefully you'll get a chance to have a look at the 3D subs one day. Thank you for developing BD-RB.Thank you very much. I'm looking at the spec to see what would be the best way to do it.

[Acerjen]

Thank you very much. I'm looking at the spec to see what would be the best way to do it.

Jdobbs,
I was just reading up on the other free 3D MVC encoder called MVCenc at the following thread:

http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=170315&page=4

It was recently updated to "preserve 3D depth information". Something about a "nesting SEI message"? Maybe FRIM Encoder will do the same kind of thing concerning 3D subtitle depth? Maybe this thread can help point you in the right direction concerning the 3D subtitle depth, assuming your not already there. If so, please ignore this message.

Thanks for a great program. Your support is second to none. Quite frankly, most software companies could follow your lead when it comes to support.

Have a nice day. Later.
Acerjen

[jdobbs]

I know FRIM can't do it yet -- but maybe in a later release. I'm aware of the way the information is maintained -- but I don't have any routines yet that scan through AVC streams, find the proper point, and insert them -- so I'd have to write it from scratch.

[HWK]

Jdobbs, where you able look into post I made, it basically talks about import function can't handle mp2 sound and PAL sources keyint set wrong.

[jdobbs]

I've fixed the problem with MPEG-1 Layer 1 & 2 audio import (MP1, MP2). In fixing it I also noticed that there were some issues importing MPEG-1 video and some older DIVX FOURCCs as well. They have also been fixed. I haven't looked at the keyint thing, but I'll have it fixed for the next release.

Was the keyint issue with a regular BD backup, ALTERNATE output, or both?

[SoniG]

Super Coder!

[Sharc]

I wanted to do a full backup in 1-pass fixed CRF mode (i.e. without CRF prediction, no size control). Therefore I put in the .ini:
FIXED_CRF=20
QUICK_CRF=22
FORCE_ENCODE=1

I assumed that FIXED_CRF=20 would discard any output size control. Now it seems that the output size control still kicks in, and one file got a "-Performing size correcting 2nd pass". Why?
I think the size correcting second pass should only kick in for "1-pass with CRF prediction" (i.e. without the FIXED_CRF=xx in the .ini), when the target size is exceeded.
Maybe I am missing something?

[jdobbs]

Hmmm... I guess I forgot about checking and adjusting for the FIXED_CRF setting when I added the size correction code. That's the problem with adding so many "special" settings -- sometimes you forget they are there. I'll fix it for the next release.

Yes, in view of the long list of options and settings, regression testing after each change becomes a herculean task .....

Now I have a second issue:
In the same job as before, I selected to resize 1920x1080 to 1440x1080, which set RESIZE_1440=1 in the .ini, so it's there and the log says "-Resize: 1920 to 1440 enabled"
The feature (VC-1 format) is currently in progress but encodes with the original size of 1920x1080, and the resize command is missing in the script.

Could it be that my .ini is incorrectly read because I inserted some blank lines in order to structure the hidden options a bit? I am also putting a # in front of unwanted options in order to disable these. Maybe I should fully remove unwanted hidden options rather than just commenting them out? It seemed to have worked in the past, but now I have some doubts.

Could it be that my .ini is incorrectly read because I inserted some blank lines in order to structure the hidden options a bit? I am also putting a # in front of unwanted options in order to disable these. Maybe I should fully remove unwanted hidden options rather than just commenting them out? It seemed to have worked in the past, but now I have some doubts.Blank lines are ignored, and so are those with # in front of them. The only thing you have to be careful of is bracketed values (like "[test]") because they begin a new section and anything after it will be ignored (most of the settings are in the "[Options]" area).

I don't think your INI is the problem -- as the indicator "-Resize: 1920 to 1440 enabled" means the value had been read properly. I'll do some testing.

[jdobbs]

I just tested a short title and it works correctly for me. Are you positive the source is 1920x1080? You should also see something similar to this in your log: - [11:00:28] Reencoding video [VID_00000]
- Source Video: MPEG-4 (AVC), 1920x1080
- Rate/Length: 23.976fps, 4,427 frames
- Convert: 1440x1080, 23.976fps, 4,427 frames

- Convert: 1440x1080, 23.976fps, 4,427 frames
Yes, the source is 1920x1080. The log reports:
- [13:32:48] Reencoding video [VID_00002]
- Source Video: VC-1, 1920x1080
- Rate/Length: 23.976fps, 187'987 frames
- [13:32:48] Encoding using constant rate factor.
- Performing size-correcting second pass...

Up to now the resize to 1440 has always worked. This time the "Strict AVCHD compliance" was selected (which I normally don't tick), if this should matter.....

[Edit:]
Now trying again with "Strict AVCHD compliance" deselected....

[Edit2:]
No joy. The resize command is just missing in the script even with "Strict AVCHD compliance" deselected.
Must be something else .......

[Edit3:]
It's a 2D source, but I have still selected "SBS" for 3D encodes. Could this possibly prevent the resizing to 1440?

[Edit4:]
Bingo! That was it. Deselecting "SBS" brought the resizing to 1440 back to life!

[Edit] It was a simple logic error in a routine that sets the resizing options for each stream (it should have done an OR instead of an AND). I've fixed it for the next release.

I have updated the first post of this thread with a link to the latest version of BD-RB (v0.50.07). Changes for this release:- Corrected proper log reporting of selected
decoder type when a 2D movie-only playlist
is used on a disc containing 3D content.
- Corrected an issue in which original audio
may be kept for ALTERNATE backup -- even
though "*" (constant quality) is selected
as the audio bitrate.
- Corrected an incorrect representation of
audio encoding completion (%) status when
an ALTERNATE constant quality encode is in
the process of executing for the AC3 format.
- Corrected an issue in which encoding could
fail on imported SBS 3D video sources when
using LAV filters for decoding.
- Added two additional hidden options related
to menus. MENU_FONT_BOLD can boldface the
selected menu font, and MENU_FONT_ITALIC is
used to set the menu font to italics mode.
- Added a new option to the Import/Quick Play
Setup dialog that allows you to select an
AC3 audio file to use as background audio
for menus. This will be used when no DVD
or BD background audio is automatically
detected and selected.
- Modified file access routines to be more
robust when accessing network shares that
have no drive letter associated with it.
- Updated the X264 keyint variable to better
match frame rates.
- Updated video file import routine so that
several older DIVX FOURCC's, MPEG-1, and
MPEG-1/L2 & L1 audio are accepted for input.
- Fixed an error in which setting the switch
to output SBS (for 3D sources) was causing
resizing functions to be ignored for non-3D
activity.
- Updated the included version of X265.EXE to
a newer release (04/22/2015).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

Mr. Jdobbs, can you explain what this means, please.

[HWK]

- Updated the X264 keyint variable to better

Mr. Jdobbs, can you explain what this means, please.

It means BD-RB account for different frame rate found in various sources.

Example if you do 25fps source, it will set keyint 25fps not 24 unlike before which it did.

Keyint instructs encoder after how many frames, I frame need to be inserted.

I made a Quick-Play Backup of a 3D Blu-Ray disc, with SBS 3D output enabled. The burnt disc plays the quick-menu, but the feature does not start when selecting the title. The standalone just resets. (The SBS-encoded .m2ts of the feature exists on the disc.)
Is 3D SBS with Quick-Play menu not BD compliant?

Is 3D SBS with Quick-Play menu not BD compliant?It is compliant as long as it is Half SBS @ 1920x1080 or less. As far as the standard is concerned it is just another 1080p source -- the conversion to 3D is done by the display.

[AmigaFuture]

@JD

"50 Shades of Grey" update: I am not able to get it to repeat, yet. I've removed AnyDVD completely from Windows 7, and reinstalled. I first noticed it with last version of BD-RB and a previous version of AnyDVD so I'll revert to those soon. I'm very curious now.

[Sharc]

Yes, it is half SBS. So the problem with this disc (Maleficent, Disney) not starting from the Quick menu must be somewhere else. I'll try again.

Is the 3D flag embedded in the .m2ts, or is it part of the .clpi or ...? In other words, when I stream the half-SBS .m2ts to the TV, should the TV switch automatically to 3D? Now I can't even switch it manually to 3D. It displays it SBS only.
I remuxed the .m2ts file to .mkv, set the 3D flag when muxing, and the TV displays the remuxed .mkv correctly in 3D, but I have not seen a similar flag setting option for tsmuxer.

[jdobbs]

No. The TV normally wouldn't automatically recognize it as 3D since is is SBS. You'd have to set it manually on the monitor.

There is a flag that is set in a couple of places for a BD saying it is 3D, as well as some MPLS and CLPI extension data -- but they only apply if it is presented as MVC (not SBS). In that case the 3D player then changes the signal so the TV recognizes it as 3D.

If you're outputting to a BD-R for playback in 3D, it is a much better solution to output to MVC. But, of course, that takes a lot longer to encode.

The advantage, on the other hand, of SBS output is that you don't need a 3D capable BD player.

I see, thank you.
The problem remains that I can't start the movie from the Quick-menu for whatever reason. Seems to be a problematic disc or menu structure. I'll re-author it as movie-only. This should work, I guess.

[Edit:]
Hmmm..... Is the reason for the playback failure possibly that the Quick-Play disc is flagged as 3D in the MPLS and CLPI extensions although the video is encoded as half-SBS?

[jdobbs]

Hmmm..... Is the reason for the playback failure possibly that the Quick-Play disc is flagged as 3D in the MPLS and CLPI extensions although the video is encoded as half-SBS? I don't think I flag them or add the extensions for SBS, but I'll check just to be sure. Quick Play does use the original MPLS and CLPI, so I could have missed it.

As an alternative, instead of using Quick Play for the backup, try importing instead. I rarely use Quick Play, as I typically import if I want to reauthor. One advantage of an import is that you get rid of multipart.

I checked the Quick Play version with BDedit. I don't understand this tool very well, but from what I have seen it appears that the index.bdmv flags the video as "SS" and "Stereoscopic" is ticked. Probably because it's just copied from the original, as you mention. Maybe this flag confuses my standalone when the video is half SBS rather than MVC.

As an alternative to Quick Play I tried importing from the mounted .iso. It imports the base view only, then wants to backup. The dependent view does not get imported, it seems .....

The SS flag wouldn't likely make a difference -- but the extensions will confuse it because they would be saying there is MVC information.

I'll look at it and fix it. I'll also look at the import function to make sure it extracts and includes MVC info.

[Sharc]

Yeah, that's probably it. The SS flag wouldn't likely make a difference -- but the extensions will confuse it because they would be saying there is MVC information........

Yep. The 00001.mpls includes Extension Data for the Base AND Dependent (MVC) stream which isn't there for SBS.

No rush to fix it. I can always remux the .m2ts to .mkv and stream the file to the TV and watch it 3D. No problem. BD-RB is a great tool.

@ JD

"50 Shades of Grey" update.. It wasn't AnyDVD. It is BD-RB. If I uncheck everything to be blanking from Menus & Movie, or with Full Backup don't set anything to be blanked and processed to BD-50 from either THEN Browse for that finished process, and then select Movie Only and select Unrated Playlist then select Intact A/V MKV, the sound is not correct with the movie.

After browsing for the ripped BD directory as Source and go right to Movie Only A/V Intact MKV or have DTS to AC3 active, then A/V play as they should. After having BD-RB process it as BD-25/50...something isn't being kept correctly. This seems to be a ?bug?. I was operating from a saved BD-RB project from Menu & Movie when I first noticed this which is where I noticed the possible bug that I thought was the fault of AnyDVD.

I'm now checking with a default config where only ENABLE_TEST=1 & DGIndexNV are being added.

Update: The Uncut movie is playing well as a BD from Full Backup. More checking..

You seem to be outputting to BD-9. I have seen Samsung and LG players being very picky on what they accept on BD-5 and BD-9, and only accepting BD25 for 3D.
As an alternative you could try to encode to half SBS and output to mkv. This should work for BD5,9 or streaming directly to TV.

[gogosch]

So I ripped the movie to SBS and AVCHD works.
But the quality (sharpness) is very poor compared to the original, without SBS.
I'm also missing chapter marks.
Could anyone explain that?

@Shark: You're right! I burned the folders "as it is" to a BD-25 and I can play them on my SAMSUNG.

I would have to disagree. For higher compression I found the half-SBS quality using the x264 encoder significantly better (especially with high motion scenes) than the Intel MVC encoder, despite the reduced resolution.

50 Shades update: Something I noticed, there hasn't been any sound when I'd preview a VID. You typed before that FFDShow and LAV Filters weren't needed. I only used DGIndexNV because I wanted to test without the other 2. I've not done 'till now.. Now I have FFShow and LAV Filters installed and sound for preview is there. Now I'm testing Full Backup (BD-50). Success and with menu! From it I was able to make an Intact A/V mkv that played the Theatrical & Unrated correctly. Now testing Movie & Menu (BD-50; unchecking all pre-blanked)..

[jdobbs]

Neither FFDSHOW nor LAV is normally used for audio decoding/encoding. For all but odd circumstances BD-RB uses NicAudio() for decoding audio streams. That isn't true, however, for preview -- as at that point, for simplicity, Directshow is used.

[AmigaFuture]

Sound wasn't played in preview until I installed FFDShow. I considered making a video to demonstrate it, but I didn't.

Surely you jest. Converting 4:3 to 16:9, would either stretch horizontally, or clip off of the top and or bottom.

Eventually I decided it was better to just do a slighter widening (and losing less off the top/bottom of the picture) instead of a full 16:9.

[musiclover]

@JD

On the subject of converting 4:3 to 16:9. Have you ever followed up on your plan to add a mode to the presets that could do that conversion for ALTERNATE mode?



It works for full-backup and movie-only backup modes. But, the size of the output in ALTERNATE mode is determined by the preset. So none of the SETUP resizing settings should affect it.

What I might be able to do is add a mode to the presets that does those conversions.

[jdobbs]

I haven't, but I can. In the meantime you can add a filter to do it, and then you can just select (or create) a "NO_RESIZE" preset.

You can remove any and all audio and subtitles you want. But if you are doing a full backup, the "references" have to stay. If you do a movie-only backup, there are no references. So if you output to an MKV, and then use the import to get it back... you are doing the exact same thing as a movie-only backup, except adding an unnecessary step to the process.

For me personally, if the movie itself is much larger than a BD-25 and if there are a lot of extras, I generally just do Movie Only, and then encode the xtras separately. I don't think I EVER do Movie & Menus... If the total Blu-ray isn't TOO big, then I just do a Full Backup with everything, but usually with 'Fast Encode for Extras'

But, in all cases with Movie Only, I never include the Menus myself...

Eventually I decided it was better to just do a slighter widening (and losing less off the top/bottom of the picture) instead of a full 16:9.

Dude... you are a SERIOUS masochist! :eek:

What I do with special 4x3 shows like that is that I just go with the 1.2x on my Telly and it just chops a bit off the top and bottom and doesn't quite fill up the sides. That sounds sort of like what you did. Heh... it seems that Videophiles ALWAYS scream if ANY information is missing on any of the 4 sides; but, for my taste personally, I'd rather have the proper AR and just lose just a LITTLE information on 2 of the sides. Depending on the source material, of course...

I don't mind creating a backup with the missing information -- but I always keep the original 4:3 as well as an archive (even though it almost never gets watched).

[Sharc]

Yes I know that Jdobbs I just wanted to ask to others what prefer, encoding with menu or without
I can only speak for myself.
- Backups on BD5 or BD9:
Movie only, for the simple reason that my SAMSUNG and LG players don't accept anything else (unlike my old SONY which played almost everything I threw at it).

- Backup on BD25:
I am using all options depending on the source material, with a preference for creating Quick-play menus.

- Backup for NAS, streaming to TV:
Movie only. Output to .mkv. CRF mode.

[DoctorM]

For large discs with a lot of extras I typically do a movie only BD25 and then put the extras on a BD5 with quick menus.
The BD5 needs to be post-processed with MultiAVCHD (no changes, just load and save) to become playable on my Sony BD player.

Less than 20 minutes of extras I'll usually do a full back up to a BD25.

[Blurayhd]

Hi Jdobbs, guys, there´s some option in bd rebuilder when I encode some movie bd50 to bd25, and as you know this movie contains black bars, so is there some option to setting bd rebuilder so I can encode without that black bars? I mean, just like others applications do? I was tried some of that and the result was just great!! when the source is 1920x1080 (and not 1920x800) I can remove that black bars but I want to know if with Bd rebuilder I can do it?

Best regards!!

[jdobbs]

You can do it to an ALTERNATE output but it would violate the BD standard if you tried it to a blu-ray disc.

[Lathe]

You can do it to an ALTERNATE output but it would violate the BD standard if you tried it to a blu-ray disc.

Yes, and that is why I HATE it when I 'come across' ones like that. Encoding the black bars and keeping it IN spec for Blu-ray players really doesn't take up THAT much space. I personally think there is no real need to strip out the black bars and ruin the Blu-ray playability. Just my lowly and wretched opinion...

[Ch3vr0n]

There's not reason to remove them anyway, if the result doesn't match the TV's 16:9 ratio it adds them back in no keep aspect ratio intact.

Both and some times what Lathe typed. If forced to keep the trailers and use Full Backup then make MKVs of movie and extras, then use Import after making a background and MAYBE if music isn't rap or something highly repetitive (bleech), use the music.

Today when I tried to run BDRB.exe all I get i System Error. A Microsoft Installer error was encountered. ? I am running Windows 7 64 bit. Do have any idea what can be causing this?

[jdobbs]

Not sure where the error is coming from -- but it's not BD-RB. It doesn't use the Microsoft Installer in any way.

[terrykuntz]

It had something to do with Microsoft Office 2007 uninstaller, I uninstalled Office 2007 and I get the System Error I re-installed it and it works fine. You would think Microsoft would know how to uninstall its own programs!! Makes you want to go back to DOS!!

Interesting. Thanks for posting the update.

Hey, I have a problem reencoding in Movie Only mode with DGDecNV when the movie has 2 VIDs and the first VID (Main Movie) is a mpeg4 source and the second VID is a mpeg2 source. The process stops while the GUI shows the message "DGDecNV reindexing" just before reencoding of the second VID should start. There are no crashes of BD-RB, PopUp messages, entries in the log or anything else ... just stop working.
When doing the same reencoding with LAV Filters instead of DGDecNV anything works fine.

DGDecNV is VERY sensitive to system overclocks. If you've tweaked your system performance, try backing it off and try your encoding again.

[Lathe]

I hope you don't mind my asking this here, but I was curious about something...

I was trying to use BDRB to re-encode what I think was a very poorly encoded MKV file which my OPPO would not play. So, I figured that if I simply re-encoded it then it would be in some valid format that my player would play. One thing is that the MKV file had a 'Variable' frame rate, which I don't see too often, so since BDRB would not accept that, I used TSMUXER to set the frame rate (guessing) at a standard 23.976. I also set the Alternate output to MKV 720x480/576 (which I DON'T really understand quite what that is, but it was close to the original AR of the MKV file)

The result was that it came out kind of pixilized, sort of like when you use BDMV parameters on an MKV file and then try to play it. I know what that looks like because I have inadvertently done that before, but the output was 'Alternate' NOT BDMV, so I don't quite know why it came out that way. So, then I tried it again using what I know is a pretty standard setting of Alternate Output of MKV at 1280x720 and tried just a 10 minute snippet. THIS time, the result was even weirder... It was like only HALF the video was showing on the screen AND it was pixilizing somewhat.

I looked at the VID.AVS and I didn't understand what it was doing. The pertinent part looked like this:

LanczosResize(1280,720,0,36,720,405)
Spline16Resize(1280,720,8,0,704,480)

What exactly did it do...?

What's weird is that usually when I use BDRB to 'fix' a bad MKV encode, sometimes it comes out just fine and then sometimes it does kind of weird things like this. I'm talking about MKV files that play just fine on VLC player, but either will not play or look REALLY funny on my OPPO player.

BTW, this isn't a movie or anything, just an odd snippet of an extra.

Doesn't a full re-encode at WHATEVER setting, as long as it is re-encoding it, basically 'fix' and create a proper MKV file as a result?

*** EDIT

Okay, so I went back and placed the first re-encode into a BDMV folder using TSMuxer and BOOM! It played perfectly. So, at least I was right as far as interpreting why it was pixelizing. But... I had it set to Alternate Output, MKV, NOT BDMV complaint, so why did the re-encoded MKV come out that way...? When I have used Alternate Output, MKV before in order to re-encode a 'bad' MKV file, I usually GET a playable MKV file. I wonder why in this case, the resulting Alternate Output MKV file was NOT a playable MKV file, but rather a file that HAD to be placed in an BDMV folder in order to play properly...?

Very puzzling...

Thanks for any input.

Hello jdobbs, plans to upgrade to the latest version of Avisynth?

[g00g]

Anyway that claim about DGDecNV is nonsense.

Claim? The description should never be a claim about DGDecNV.

DGDecNV is my first choice!

Actually I think in my case it's the process that passes / prepares the input data needed by DGDecNV and not DGDecNV itself.

[Groucho2004]

DGDecNV is VERY sensitive to system overclocks.
Software is not "sensitive". Some programs may expose system instabilities more than others, particularly when they stress the components more than usual.
In the case of DGDecNV, the part that runs on the CPU would hardly cause stress, especially compared to something like x264.
However, I imagine that an overclocked video card could cause problems with the code that runs on the VPU/GPU.

[videoh]

That wasn't directed at you, but rather the poster you responded too. Sorry for the ambiguity and thank you for your interest in my tools.

Hey, wait a minute...! :scared:

[Lathe]

Actually, I have a more standard inquiry this time...

The Import / Quick Play has always worked flawlessly. I use it usually to back up the movie file and only the extras I want as separate files, each in their own BDMV folder. Normally it ALWAYS works. But, this time, although all of the extras are well above the import time threshold (1 minute) BDRB is ONLY seeing the main movie folder, but NOT the other 7 folders. Well, actually, it IS 'Seeing' them, but then it mysteriously skips them...

Here is the log. I am just REALLY curious as to why suddenly it is not seeing the other BDs in the main import folder.

[DoctorM]

Tomato tomato.
The point is, I have seen overclocked systems that appear stable reveal instability when DGDecNV is used with BD Rebuilder.
Arguing is pointless. An unstable overclock is undesirable no matter what the situation or cause. It was a troubleshooting suggestion. Relax.

[Groucho2004]

An unstable overclock is undesirable no matter what the situation or cause.
I certainly agree with that.

I have seen overclocked systems that appear stable reveal instability when DGDecNV is used with BD Rebuilder.
That would indicate that you know of at least two systems that showed this bizarre behaviour. DGDecNV would be close to the bottom of the list of tools in the decoding/encoding chain that could cause crashing/freezing (you didn't elaborate on "reveal instability" so I assumed crashing/freezing).
Anyway, without knowing details about these "instabilities" and the hardware/software configuration, arguing is indeed pointless.

[DoctorM]

Apparently Grouch2004 is Donald Grafts lawyer. So I hearby revoke all statements that may besmirch Mr. Grafts software.

[DoctorM]

:rolleyes:

[jdobbs]

Ok. Let's get back on topic.

[DoctorM]

Okay. I've re-encoded a couple movie-only projects recently where there are forced subtitles.

Because I don't see anything denoting it, I've been selecting the subtitle track that was previously forced and selecting "Turn Subtitled On" (FORCED ON).
Is that necessary? Does BD Rebuilder automatically force it even though there is no indication of forced/unforced on the list of streams?

It feels like movie-only encodings act differently when there are forced tracks.

[jdobbs]

Yes. BD-RB adds code to the authoring that turns a forced sub on in the BD's first-play routine. The exception to that would be if you select a different subtitle track (from the streams list dropdown) that you want on. Both work the same way. If there are multiple available forced tracks, it will select based upon the language priorities you set using the hidden option FORCED_SUB_LANG. The default priority is given to English (because that's what I speak daily).

[DoctorM]

Okay, then I'll stop forcing it. Thanks.

[musiclover]

Could someone inform me on the purpose of the setting 'Process 3d Video sources as 2d for backup'?
Can it be used to convert a 3d movie into 2d? I tried it and keep getting two images beside each other.

[gonca]

Do you have any SBS settings checked, or are you perhaps using a SBS Alternate-Output.

I have that checked and never had any issues in the past.

[Audiophile1178]

Jdobbs,

Hello, I found a bug that was introduced some versions ago. I'll try to explain it as well as I can. When I do an encode, I'll often do a comparison of the encoded video vs. source video using MPC. These are the settings that I use:

ffdshow video decoder configuration:
-Check box for OSD and check the boxes for current frame and frame type.
MPC:
-Go to options > playback > output > select Haali Renderer

When the above are enabled there will be green text in the top left corner showing what the current frame and frame number is when I use MPC to playback the video. I've always kept these settings checked for a few years now and never had a problem encoding a movie with BD Rebuilder.

Now, I have to uncheck OSD to encode a movie or else the green text showing the current frame and frame number gets encoded into the encoded video. I did several testing of prior versions to see where the problem started and have narrowed it down.

BD Rebuilder v0.48.03 and older: OK
BD Rebuilder v0.48.04 and newer: Text gets encoded in video

FYI, I don't have anything regarding LAV installed.

Here's the inspect report:

[Lathe]

I was wondering if anyone could help me understand this better...

I'm using BDRB to create a quick play menu setup for 2 small Blu-ray folders. Normally, I do this all the time and it works just fine putting the two Blu-rays on one Blu-ray with a nice menu.

However, this time one of my folders needs to have the audio hastened by about 12 seconds, and when I play the individual m2ts file it is in sync. When I look at the m2ts file with MediaInfo, it shows the negative delay kind of 'written' in the audio part, like this:

Audio
ID : 4352 (0x1100)
Menu ID : 1 (0x1)
Format : DTS
Format/Info : Digital Theater Systems
Format profile : MA / Core
Mode : 16
Format settings, Endianness : Big
Muxing mode : Stream extension
Codec ID : 134
Duration : 1h 30mn
Bit rate mode : Variable
Bit rate : Unknown / 1 509 Kbps
Channel(s) : 6 channels
Channel positions : Front: L C R, Side: L R, LFE
Sampling rate : 48.0 KHz
Bit depth : 16 bits
Compression mode : Lossless / Lossy
Delay relative to video : -12s 300ms


But, when I Import both folders into the Quick Play setup, it does everything just fine, but when I go to play the result, the audio adjustment is no longer in there and the A/V is 12 seconds out of sync (the MediaInfo file for the newly created m2ts file no longer has the timing adjustment - the bottom line above is missing)

Why would BDRB not keep the audio timing adjustment that I already put into the m2ts file of the original folder?

Also too... Just for my information, if someone doesn't mind telling me, I THOUGHT that once I adjusted the delay for the audio and then used TSMuxer to create a BDMV folder, that the new, adjusted A/V timing would just natively be adjusted in the new m2ts file, but the audio timing adjustment STAYS in the file info, kind of like it will always need that timing info in order to play it back right. BUT... why doesn't it just simply create a NEW m2ts file with the audio ALREADY adjusted and just start back at 'Zero' again...???

Why does it do that...?

Thanks!

[Lathe]

Well, I THINK I might have figured out what to do. I still don't understand WHY TSMuxer won't keep the hastened audio adjustment, but what I tried as a fix was to use TSMuxer to snip out the first 12.3 seconds of the audio (basically hastening it the required amount) and using the new shortened audio track, remux it into the original BDMV folder and THEN use BDRB to put the two together, this time without the time hastening adjustment being in the m2ts file stats.

So, I'm burning it right now, but I watched the resulting m2ts file after BDRB finished importing it and it was perfectly in sync, so I THINK I got it... :) (still don't understand WHY it doesn't retain the hastened audio though...)

BD-RB is supposed to detect and maintain audio delays. I noticed this on a disc I had imported as well, and it was an oversight in the import routine. I've fixed it for the next release.

Versions of external tools for BD-RB

The requirements statements in the first post of this thread have not been updated for a while, and I believe it's time to do this...

In my experience BD-RB has no problems whatsoever with AviSynth 2.60, and the current version 0.65 of LAVFilters also works perfectly. (ffdshow is static anyway, only the Haali version seems to be critical)

The reason I bring it up is that more and more software requires AviSynth 2.60 (or AviSynth +) these days. Could you please do some tests using the current versions and update the first post accordingly?

[DoctorM]

I had something weird happen yesterday and don't blame BD Rebuilder for it, but I can't figure out the source of the problem.
Re-encoding Airplane! with a quick menu. This included the movie, a trailer and 60 bonus clips of about 1 minute or less.

One of the clips has a last frame that is wrong. It's supposed to be black, but it is another from earlier in the clip instead.
I examined the .264 file and it's really there, I checked the .AVS script in the temp folder and it ISN'T there.

Is it possible the x264 encoder actually screwed up? I guess it could also have been the hardware decoder had a brain fart. Both seem pretty unlikely.

This is the first I've seen anything like that and it's only in one video clip out of 62 on that disc. I'd post more details, but I don't know what. The log shows no errors encoding that segment:

In my experience BD-RB has no problems whatsoever with AviSynth 2.60, and the current version 0.65 of LAVFilters also works perfectly. (ffdshow is static anyway, only the Haali version seems to be critical)

The reason I bring it up is that more and more software requires AviSynth 2.60 (or AviSynth +) these days. Could you please do some tests using the current versions and update the first post accordingly?

Good to know Manolito, because I also use other software that for some time now are demanding Avisynth version 2.60.

Jdobbs,

I was backing up transformers age of extinction and notice alternate output has extra audio track which was never chosen for backup, what makes it even more interesting it doesn’t exist on disc either. In final built Media info shows it exist, MPC-HC can play it and size of file 756 MiB in this case.

What I don’t get is why have two tracks, even though asked for one at backup?

Bold one was never asked for backup.

My second one has to do with Captain America Winter Solider, this has force subs. However in final version it never get transferred over. After some digging I figured out this title has force subs which are contained in separate track. Unless I choose to backup this one and manually force with mkvmerge it doesn’t get displayed.

I am going to redo this if requested by you.

In both cases alternate output with HEVC and intact audio, since it doesn't exist I posted it here.


caption=MKV Container, HEVC 1920x1080, Intact Audio

vBitrate=2000

BD structure output does not have this problem, however instead of coming close to 22.5 it is 20.8 in size.

HWK
MKVmerge can not remux TrueHD with the AC3 core, so it muxes the TrueHD track and the core separately.
Simply rerun the mkv thru mkvmerge again with the AC3 core deselected if you wish.

Been using this program for a while and now I finally ran into a problem. I went to back up 3 movies recently and for some reason its only re-encoding or whatever only about 20-30 minutes of the movie and then burns it to disc. Got plenty of hard drive space and no power saving options selected. Any help would be appreciated.

[HWK]

Provide disc you have problem with, setting and anything specific you may be using.

3 different movies. American Sniper, Chappie and Jupiter Ascending. Movie only setting. Found part of one of the logs below. AnyDvd used to rip to a desktop folder. The whole movie ripped fine but for some reason BD Rebuilder isn't encoding the whole movie on any of the 3 I have tried recently.

Perfect! I would use this setting and will try American Sniper and Jupiter Ascending if I find second one too I will try as well, that is if I find second one :p

@Tplat

Can you post Imgburn log as well?

Launch Imgburn and under help, choose imgburn logs and post recent one here or its content. Also you can upload to remote site and paste a link if you wish.

Also can you show setting for BD-RB run program under help you will find option to generate it.

OK, thanks. A couple of weeks ago everything was working fine. I`ve used this programs for several years doing just movie only back ups and don't recall any problems like this. For some reason after only encoding the first 20 minutes or so the program thinks its done and sends it off to Imageburn to be burned to a BDRE disc. This most recent attempt I tried the Quick Play mode instead of Movie Only but didn't get a chance to finish it. Will try again in the morning, time for bed here. Thanks again for the help.

[IanD]

Is there a trick to making full 3D backup with in-mux?

Whenever I open a 3D title, BDR only seems to see the 2D m2ts as the resultant file is too small to be the muxed 3D, even allowing for removal of non-English soundtracks.

In Setup, the "Process 3D video sources as 2D for backup" is checked but greyed out and non-selectable and I can't see how to disable it.

[HWK]

Which operating system you are using?

[Ch3vr0n]

@HWK: the "checked but greyed out" part should have given that away. He's using vista (or below, but unlikely)

@IanD: 3D processing requires Windows 7 or above. This is due to specific code requirements by FRIM that are missing in vista or below. If you want to process 3D discs and keep 3d (no there is no trick, BDRB will then do its magic in combo with FRIM), you need to upgrade to Windows 7 at least. No way around that.

[HWK]

Yes, but I just wanted to be extra sure. With that said you are absolutely right.

Will do that in a little bit here. Did an uninstall then a fresh install of everything and am about to give it another shot. Just have to leave a note for my brother to leave the computer alone. Whats weird is it would burn and play fine but only the first 20 minutes or so are on the disc. The ripped movie folder has the entire movie but the BDRB working folder for the encoded movie is much smaller then the original.

Are you using default anydvd setting when processing or ripping movie.

Try this in BD-RB under setting click on output options and choose write to ISO file. Let's see if it makes a complete copy.

I think my hard drive in my laptop is crapping out. I ran into a few other problems today and did a check disc where for a little over an hour it was stuck on 11% so I aborted it and checked to see how it does just cruising the internet. Anything beyond that and it starts to have problems.. I got an external docking station with a desktop WD Raptor Drive as a back up for my laptops main hard drive and am going to pick up a new internal laptop drive with in the next few days. Been checking the daily Frys and Newegg adds.

And for those who use the Directshow as frame server, is slightly faster. The greater speed difference occurs in the first pass.

Thanks for the clarification. That's disappointing news as I'm using XP and have had no issues processing Bluray until now.

Why is FRIM necessary, since I don't want to perform any encoding, simply create an in-mux Bluray structure that doesn't take up twice the original disc space?

Is there an alternate utility that just performs a remux and which works under XP?

I'm not aware of any utility other than BD-RB (beyond expensive professional authoring tools) that will create an in-mux structure. If all you want is a movie-only backup, you can create an ISO with TSMUXER (it won't be in-mux). It won't double the space, since it is within an ISO.

I think it is great that your software is able to re-encode 3D down to 25GB, amongst other things, however my own usage is all via HDD where space is not so critical and if the studios release a certain quality, I don't want to compromise that. My players can all handle Bluray structure, but only one is capable of ISO, so for flexibility I am only creating Bluray structure now and BD-RB's ability to create an in-mux is essential for 3D.

If BD-RB can be simply modified to perform the full range of functions including full, movie-only and quick-play backup, where re-encoding is not required, under XP, for both 2D and 3D, that would be awesome.

Is there any chance of including separate Temp and Output fields, so that data can be routed between different drives for speed and reduced thrashing? I currently do all processing on an SSD that is large enough to handle a 50GB temp result but not an additional 50GB output and it would help having the option to write output to a different final destination drive.

But... with that said, there good reasons to avoid a reencode when it isn't necessary.

BD-RB already does the full range of functions -- so I don't think that's a very accurate statement. It simply limits reencoding of 3D only to those systems that have an OS that can support it. But, as I said, I will look at the idea of lifting that limitation when reencoding isn't occurring -- but it isn't as easy as you might think. BD-RB considers each playlist & M2TS individually to see if reencoding is necessary (not the overall disc, as you might assume). The only way to definitively determine whether an entire disc will fit is to extract all audio/video/subtitles before performing anything else and subtracting the size of the files that aren't kept -- which adds a LOT of time and disc-space requirements to the process. What I'll probably do instead is allow 3D muxing to be performed when the FORCE_NOENCODE hidden option is asserted.

You can already set BD-RB to use a different temporary and output folder -- see OUTPUT_FOLDER in HIDDENOPTS.TXT. But... I wouldn't expect much in terms of speed increases, as my tests have shown little -- and while there will be some reduction in the required space on the TEMP drive -- you'll find that isn't as much as you might assume either.

Storage is sufficiently cheap these days that the effort to compress a bit more, even if it doesn't actually compromise quality, doesn't seem worthwhile. Then there is the issue of Cinavia, if one burns to an optical disc, to make it somewhat pointless anyway in many cases.

Whatever method is easier for you. Even if I have to specify a custom output size of 500GB to get it not to re-encode.

Do you have explicit limits on output size, regardless of the custom size field? It seems like BD-RB is designed around fixed optical disc output sizes, rather than HDD capacity, but then I guess most customers are using discs instead of HDD.

I would particularly like to create an in-mux 3D quickplay folder version of Hobbit 1 3D (which is currently on 2 separate discs) on HDD as a more compact working version than using my original discs.

[soneca]

I also use program which require avisynth 2.60

While not supported but so far bd-rb works with new version. However not gonna post bug report unless I use 2.58

Probably the jdobbs will approve because it seems to work just fine. Other software that deserved an update is the Haali Media Splitter to version 23062013.

[Nathan38401]

Hey JDOBBS, first, I want to thank you for creating a brilliant piece of software. Ive done many titles and have had few problems. I am having trouble with one right now, and any advice that you could give me to fix this on my own would be appreciated. "Orange Is The New Black' Season one disc one. The other discs in the set processed fine. Here is the log file.

[jdobbs]

That error is almost always caused by a bad rip. What ripper did you use? I'd suggest re-ripping the source.

[Nathan38401]

For the rippper, I used AnydvdHd. Same Program Ive used for everything I've backed up with your software, around 200 disc, give or take, so I dont think its the ripper. I will clean the disc ( it appears to be in excellent shape though) and re rip, and report back. Thank you for the response. Your software has made it to were I dont fear the kids or the wife handling the original discs. Thank you so much for your work.

[jdobbs]

I'm pretty sure it is a bad rip -- it has been on every report of that error. Sometimes you just get a hiccup.

[techno1]

After 100's of backups, I have one that won't play right. I always test play the burned disc before adding it to my collection for later. Taken 3 , movie only, immediately starts with jerking video, like it hesitates, then try's to catch up. The audio is also out of sync. Oddly enough with this movie I made a backup for my RV which only has a DVD. The alternate movie only output plays just fine. I switched settings to x264 from Directshow for decoding and it made no difference. Using ImgBurn I created an ISO from the slysoft rip and the 43GB ISO plays just fine.

I'll order a 50GB BR disc, but it bugs me this one won't play nice for me. :angry:

Bad blank disc??

[techno1]

Bad blank disc??

The mounted ISO skips also...no media involved.

I edited my post to reflect the mounted ISO skips also.

[gonca]

Use Tsmuxer to create a blu-ray structure from the main movie playlist of the original decrypted ISO.
See if it throws up any errors or warnings.

[jdobbs]

I'll see if I can find "Taken 3" and give it a test run with your settings. Based on your location, I assume it is the US version. In the meantime I'd suggest uninstalling/reinstalling AVISYNTH and LAV Filters (or FFDSHOW and HAALI) and giving it another run.

Has anyone else successfully run this disc?

[gonca]

I'm running Taken 3 movie only BD25 target right now.
Will let you know the results as soon as I can

I previously did an MKV alternate output of this movie with no issues

@techno1

Could you please post your log for the encode or Taken 3? I see at least one issue -- the first M2TS is being kept in its original format, while others are being encoded -- that should never happen on a movie-only encode.

[gonca]

Taken 3 movie only plays fine, no issues.
I am going to try it with techno1's exact settings to see if it makes a difference

Now running it with techno1 settings and the first M2TS is being encoded

[gonca]

Copied and pasted his settings from his post but changed that setting.

[gonca]

With techno1 settings the movie plays fine and audio stays in sync

He might have some bad frames in his rip. That could throw the video encode off and desync the audio.
techno1, try what I suggested with tsmuxer gui and check for any bad frames indications in its log

Even with the differences though, and the fact that the first segment didn't get re-encoded (which I have to fix) my rebuild is working correctly with no sync issues. It was just good luck that the original happened to also be encoded in AVC.

Hi,
I have a problem with some BD.
I uncheck some languages, BD rebuilder remove this on m2ts but when I play, The subtitles are shifted.
Are there has an option to replace to white track ?

Thanks

[gonca]

Yes, I did the extended version
Funny how your first segment didn't get re-encoded and mine did.

[techno1]

I'll see if I can find "Taken 3" and give it a test run with your settings. Based on your location, I assume it is the US version. In the meantime I'd suggest uninstalling/reinstalling AVISYNTH and LAV Filters (or FFDSHOW and HAALI) and giving it another run.

Has anyone else successfully run this disc?

jdobbs, I reinstalled FFDSHOW, HALLI, AVISYNTH and then LAV Filters and have the same resulting skipping video with out of sync audio.

I installed LAV Filters last and BD-RB indicated on start LAV was not set correctly it would make changes for Windows 7. Here is my INSPECT result.

I understand that sometimes people don't read manuals... but all I have for instructions is the requirement to read is a single page. Is that too much to ask?

Meanwhile I'm having to deal with a clueless noob who keeps making "I'm so smart" comments via e-mail because he's too dense to understand that a two-and-a-half year old version of X264 isn't the latest release. There's nothing more annoying than people who are too stupid to know how stupid they are (I'm talking about the e-mail jerk -- not techno1).

Advice to anyone: NEVER create free software. Your time and effort is never appreciated and you only become a target for the "I'm entitled" crowd.

No it's from the BD-RB directory offf the C:\ drive

I understand HWK, it's been many years since I first installed BD-RB and forgot about the readme page. My bad...or better yet, my bad memory and many life issues.

This is my first hick-up in 100's of successful backups. I'm also a regular donator to the author, so I appreciate the software.

I understand things do happen like this. Anyways once you install correct software then we can move forward once again.

hi all, newbie returning after several years absence. Firstly, big thank you to JDobbs for continuing his work on BDRebuilder :-) Back when I last used this program I was (successfully) converting BD's with VC-1 to H264. This is still my intent today but am not getting the desired result. The discs are of Star Trek: Original Series, all of which have VC-1. Could someone point me to a tutorial on how to achieve this please? Alternatively, I'm happy to upload the log or ini. file for review.. Thus far it takes just over 24 hours to back up a full 50gb disc. No errors are reported and the inspect report checks out fine. Its just at the end of the process I still have VC-1 instead of H264....:( Probably something obvious that's smacking me in the face to tick or untick.:o I believe the discs are 1080p, not 1080i if that's of any help. Thanks in advance,

Magna JC

Based on what you describing it would seem you need at hidden option "force encode" but posting logs would really help.

Thanks for the speedy reply HWK:) I forgot to mention in my previous post I've loaded the "FORCE_ENCODE=1" text into the config file. Not sure if its important where this is added but have placed it directly under the first [options] line. Will definitely upload the file for all to scrutinise shortly. I've also been keeping the WORKFILES to try and ascertain where I'm going wrong. All these temp files appear to be the correct size with MediaInfo showing they are now encoded as H264. But the final remixed version is still VC-1.

Hi,
I have a problem with some BD.
I uncheck some languages, BD rebuilder remove this on m2ts but when I play, The subtitles are shifted.
Are there has an option to replace to white track ?

Thanks

I relance my question.

Ex: BIG HERO 6 and JUPITER ASCENDING have this probleme
I remove all other language exept English and French.
When I play the movie, the default French become English.
I would like to inject false audio and subtitles between this tracks.

[HWK]

How exactly are you playing it. Also do you mean to say when I play, language and subs change. Example if you select French, English play instead and vice versa.

I also own both of these movies, if you can post setting I can try to find out what is happening.

I am assuming you using media info to find out which codec is used in final one. Anyways do post settings and movie name.

ok, so attached are 2 log files of my problem. I'd be sincerely grateful to anyone who can resolve my dilemma:o

[HWK]

hmm, thanks waiting it to be approved. Can you provide name of movie and bd-rebuilder.ini file contents unless it is included in current file.

[Magna JC]

Log1 contains the whole report of the encode, start to finish. Log 2 contains the details of the ini file. Does it matter where you type "FORCE_ENCODE=1" into this file? The disc is disc1 from season 1 of Star Trek Original series. So it will contain several episodes & not a main movie. hope this info helps HWK

@Magna JC

How are you checking the output to see if it is VC-1? According to the log every segment has been reencoded and couldn't possibly still be VC-1. Are you sure you're checking the correct files (in the WORKING folder)?

[techno1]

Use Tsmuxer to create a blu-ray structure from the main movie playlist of the original decrypted ISO.
See if it throws up any errors or warnings.

Taken 3 has 4 playlists, how do you choose the correct Main Movie? BD-RB Main Movie Only chose 800. You chose 801? AnyDVD HD Speedmenu selects 850 and 801.

Do I need to use Tsmuxer before using BD-RB every time?

BTW, I never use Speedmenu but I did trying to troubleshoot the skipping video and audio sync problems with this movie.

[Magna JC]

hello Jdobbs, thanks for taking an interest in my situation (bows in reverence before the program's Creator). I guess this is where I'm probably going to shoot myself in the foot for making a dumbass-newbie mistake....:o My understanding of how BDRebuilder completes an encode is as follows;

The program creates and temporarily uses the files stored in the WORKFILES folder. This is why the user is offered the option in settings to delete this folder at the conclusion of an encode.

The finished product is in a newly created folder containing the same files with same names etc. but is now encoded as per user specifications. Am I right so far?

So can I/user expect that a recode from VC-1 to H264 would convert ALL m2ts files containing the VC-1 codec?

If the answer is yes, I'm even more baffled by what I have on my hands:(

I've gone into the main STREAM folder in the new recode folder which contains all m2ts files. I've sorted them into largest filesize to smallest ascending. The largest file in this folder is still in VC-1 code. The second largest file has been converted successfully to H264.

I'm happy to send/upload screen dumps to back these statements..

regards to all,
MJC

(bows once more to Jdobbs)No. By default it wouldn't reencode all VC-1 files (assuming a full backup). If the file(s) is under 100MB, it keeps it intact (to save time) -- assuming that it isn't a segment of a larger playlist. By default it also wouldn't reencode menu files.

I have to believe you're looking in the wrong folder -- either that or you're looking at files that didn't require encoding. Your log showed a reencode -- and BD-RB has no mechanism for reencoding to VC-1. Based on your INI file, the output should be in a folder called G:\NEW FOLDER\STAR_TREK_S1D1. According to your log -- there should be at least 88 M2TS files in that folder that are AVC. Just grabbing one at random -- look at G:\NEW FOLDER\STAR_TREK_S1D1\BDMV\STREAM\00164.M2TS. That file is a segment from one of the episodes. It should contain AVC video.

In fact, you can go through the different filenames in your log and look at each of those encodes -- for example:

- [21:08:40] Reencoding: VID_00157, Pass 1 of 2
- [21:10:28] Reencoding: VID_00157, Pass 2 of 2

This would indicate that the video portion of 00157.M2TS was reencoded to AVC. It is pretty small -- only 1,377 frames. But it was reencoded because it a segment that was a part of a larger playlist (probably one of the episodes). The streams are broken up that way because the HD Star Trek episodes can be played more than one way (with or without the updated computer graphics) -- and the playback sequence is determined by the playlist that links them together.

It's very possible that there may be other M2TS files (that aren't a part of a greater playback scheme) that were left VC-1 because they are small. If for some reason, you want those other M2TS files reencoded as well -- you can use MIN_M2TS_SIZE (see HIDDENOPTS.TXT) to change the threshold from 100MB to some lower value.

When there is an 800 -- it's almost always the right one.

Meanwhile I'm having to deal with a clueless noob who keeps making "I'm so smart" comments via e-mail because he's too dense to understand that a two-and-a-half year old version of X264 isn't the latest release. There's nothing more annoying than people who are too stupid to know how stupid they are (I'm talking about the e-mail jerk -- not techno1).

Advice to anyone: NEVER create free software. Your time and effort is never appreciated and you only become a target for the "I'm entitled" crowd.

Woahh... :) I understand your frustration, most definitively, but please don't lump all of us into the Internet fray smacking. :) It can be challenging to remember, but we all stumble before we walk and run. Sometimes a slug in the kisser is needed before someone says, "OH!! Okay, got it!" Maybe you should inform him to create his own program and release it to the masses and notice HE gets flack sometimes (probably have)?? Heh! Keep your stress low, JD, you cannot PLEASE everyone and not everyone can please you. Sometimes a helpful reminder is -- helpful. :)

Cosmetic bug?

If I have the mouse click the outside parts of "Browse" sometimes I'm able to notice the graphic change but not anything happens. If I click again but more inward, the requester (dialog) shows per normal. This goes since way, way back. Most people dismiss such affects as "whatever", and so did I. If I reinstall Windows 7 (64 bit) or use VMWare Workstation or Fusion (W7 64-bit), same thing. Once in a while, clicking in the middle the same thing happens...nada other than the graphics changes. Anyone else notice this? It's usually not a "thing" after the 1st attempt, or next run of the program. I haven't checked this with 32 bit at all...and I shall, soon. Otherwise, 2 thumbs up...carry on. :)

[Magna JC]

thanks for your advice & suggestions Jdobbs. I think I understand things better now... The folder you're referring to was the same folder I was checking too. I'll give your MIN_M2TS_SIZE suggestion a try to see if I can get the result i'm after.

To give everyone the big picture; I'm trying to create m2ts container files of each episode of Star Trek Original Series. I've already acheived this with all 7 seasons of Star Trek: Next Generation. The result is a 6.5gb file (per ep) containing h264 video stream + AC3 x 640 audio stream.

I was fortunate that Next Gen had H264 as its native codec so all that was required was to down-convert DTS audio to AC3. Not so with Original Series as everything is VC-1 natively.

And each episode is made up of many, many little m2ts files as "His Greatness" JDobbs has already pointed out.

Regards,
MJC

Forgot to update this thread for a few days. New hard drive and fresh install of everything and sofar Chappie movie only backed up just fine. Didn't play the whole movie only scanned through and played parts of it from beginning to end and didn't see any problems.

[DoctorM]

Today, for the second time, I've gotten a wrong frame at the end of an encoded video (third if you count that I have reproduced it on the same movie).

The frame count is the same in the source and encode, but the final frame which in this case should be black, is a frame from a few seconds before the end instead.

The BD is "There's No Business Like Show Business" and it's the main movie. Previously it was one of the several dozen bonus features on Airplane!.

I've reinstalled BD RB, AVISynth, DGDecNV and updated my video card driver just to be safe.
Viewing the source in AVISynth script in the WORKFILES folder, the final frame is correct, but that isn't how it encoded.

I can post scripts and all sorts of goodies, but I'm not sure any of that will tell you anything. I'm going to try a previous version of BDRB and see if that solves it.
This is a head scratcher. Let me know if you want any more details.

Edit: Tested versions of BD RB back to v0.49.07 and this still occurs on every encoding. Couple of other ideas to try tomorrow, but maybe there is something odd about this film.

You need to provide the FULL encode log, not just 2 tiny lines of text.

A follow up to "There's No Business Like Show Business" bad last frame. Disabled DGDecNV and switched to DirectShow/LAVFilters and the issue is gone, the encoding is fine.
There didn't seem to be an impact on speed, probably because of LAV's hardware decoding, so I see no reason to risk using anything else.

This is my first using LAV for BD RB though (I was previously using ffdshow). Should any specific options be enabled/disabled?
There are some questionable default settings: Auto Deinterlacing, Use Stream Aspect Ratio, RGB Output Levels: PC, Random Dithering, HEVC Hardware decoding disabled, etc., or does BD-RB bypass these settings?

First page doesn't mention anything besides installing LAV last.

I have been using lav and using default values. I would leave it there. Jdobbs would have mentioned if change needed in setting.

I disabled 'Deinterlacing Mode' since I wouldn't want that to engage in an encoding or during video playback by default.
I also set Hardware Decoder to DXVA2 (copy-back) and enabled HEVC and UHD acceleration.

I have no idea if that's right or wrong, but it seemed like a good idea.
I don't know if those settings actually effect what is being passed to the x264 encoder or not. To my understanding it doesn't actually go to a video renderer(?), but using copy-back may nullify that. I'll admit, I'm pretty weak on this stuff.

Hmm. I hate to create self-inflicted problems, but when I installed I let it reset all the settings. By default the Hardware Decoder is disabled.

Running a test encode and double clicking the tray icon, it doesn't look like BD RB bypasses the settings you choose... which would mean interlaced video is deinterlaced and the CPU does all the work.

I'm at a loss of what to do.

Lav filters used to decode frames, deinterlace is done by avisynth plugin

That's what we want to happen, but if you want interlaced video kept interlaced, the avisynth script will pass the interlaced content to LAV which may automatically deinterlace at that stage.

I'm going to have to find some interlaced blu-ray material and run it through both ways to see what happens.

EDIT: Tested an interlaced M2TS file using avisynth, directshowsource and LAV Filter. LAV has 4 settings: Auto, Aggressive, Force and Disabled. Only Force mode will generate progressive output all others output interlaced.

Playing the same file directly in MPC-HC with LAV filter, Auto will deinterlace the video.

Interesting, so I read through AviSynth's Wiki for DirectShowSource and found this quote:
There are some caveats:
(snip)
5. Also this version attempts to disable any decoder based deinterlacing.

So that options isn;t an issue unless you set it to force deinterlacing.

I also tested the Hardware Decoder and when turned on the CPU utilization goes down and the GPU and Graphics memory usage goes up. So I don't know if it's safe, but it should be faster.

Note that Pass 1 and Pass 2 have the same time code. Pass 1 just doesn't happen. I can play the AviSynth script generated by BDRB just fine. The video generated on the second pass is really the movie, not blank or an error.

So why is the first pass silently failing and shouldn't the second pass fail also without a first pass generating something?

So why is the first pass silently failing and shouldn't the second pass fail also without a first pass generating something?That's definitely odd. If pass one fails, pass two should fail too, because there would be no .stats file to be used....

I'm scratching my head over that one. Any chance the time got changed midstream, or there was some other system time related incident?

[DoctorM]

I twiddled a load of options, what finally caused Pass 1 to work and generate stats files is to go to a slower encoding speed than High-Speed Option (BD-25+).
Tried High-Speed on a different BD and found the same thing. BD-25 seems to nerf the first pass (at least in some cases).

Changed back to DGDevNV and even tested x264's internal LAVF, no difference. If High Speed has ever done this before, I just never noticed. I only use it on occasionally to check if I'll hit the target, then then do a second slower encoding.

Edit: To clarify, the first pass seems to fail for non-AVC video. I'll do more testing, but I've had it happen for VC-1 and Mpeg2.

OK, so I’ve going about things differently and finally getting the result I’m after. I was trying to convert an entire disc from VC-1 to H264. Instead I’m converting each episode as a movie only output mkv. Then I remux this file into a m2ts. I’ve had only 1 problem/error code so far; #1501. I decided to try using Clown BD for the problem episode and noticed re-occurring messages “detecting clipping”. All the other episodes on the same disc are converting fine with BDRebuilder so I’m guessing there’s a problem with the disc itself.

Big thank you to the advice provided in this forum,

regards.

You need to provide the FULL encode log, not just 2 tiny lines of text.

Again with The Music Man a VC-1 movie.

I re-encoded using DirectShowSource & LAV Filter (with HW decoder). After encoding I used DGDecNV to index both the source and the encode and wrote a script to compare the two.

The image quality was perfect. I couldn't even find any grain/noise that moved between the frames. So the HW Decoder seems to work beautifully.

What I DID find that freaks me out is DGDecNV is not perfect. For the first half of the movie the source was 1 frame behind the encoding (it seems to have dropped the first frame). By the end it was a few frames behind.
I located the instance when it goes to 2 frames out of sync and found the source was missing a frame that the encoding had.

I'm thinking the reason I was getting stray frames at the end of some encodings is DGDecNV _under some conditions_ can drop frames. When it comes up short at the end it could be replacing those frames from a different location in the stream to make up the correct total. Honestly, I just don't know.

I'll stick with DSS/LAV for now. Seems to be the best way to go.

Edit: Did a test encode of Easy A tonight. High Speed BD25+, same thing with the first pass, it just seems to skip it (no stats files created) and go right to the second pass. Movie is AVC, all bonus are Mpeg-2 (SD and HD).
