BD Rebuilder Beta - Bug Reports Only

@AmigaFuture

Ahhh...not in the HIDDENOPTS and I didn't search well enough here. I remembered the conversation.. I shall have BD-RB use it, Thank You.
As always, my pleasure ;>}

BTW, what is the brand and model number of your standalone player (that properly processes DTS Express audio)?

[AmigaFuture]

@setarip_old

You have P.M.s turned off. LG BD590 with a 250GB Hard Drive. The video quality is excellent for BD, however, XviD, DivX, H.264 when played from the HDD doesn't look "as clear" from a BD/AVCHD disk or my HD TVs USB.

@jdobbs

Back to BD-RB. It looks and sounds to play correctly. I've not noticed any sync or jitters with PIP or Movie. I did notice that the DTS isn't re-rendered to AC3 so DTSX_ENABLE=1 is overriding rerender. Personally, that's fine as long as audio is there with video.

[Ch3vr0n]

@Amiga: it doesnt have to. DTS-Express is DTS-Express and AC3 = Dolby Digital Plus. 2 different things

The secondary tracks require either DTS Express or Dolby Digital Plus -- and there is no freeware encoder for either of those. So secondary audio tracks are never reencoded.

Ok so here my log, I am having this issue with both Constantine and V for Vendetta, it seems they both crash. Any suggestions? heres my log.

I know I have everything installed correctly but my encoding keeps crashing! Heres my log:

Are you overclocked? It looks like it does a couple minutes of encoding before it fails...

[Crocluvr92]

No Im not, what else could be causing this? Both titles have a bonus screen pip secondary video. Is that the cause?

[AmigaFuture]

@Ch3vr0n and jdobbs,

Thank You for the Enlightening information.. Ahhhh...Now I know why BD-RB didn't.

[jdobbs]

No Im not, what else could be causing this? Both titles have a bonus screen pip secondary video. Is that the cause? It's definitely crashing on the secondary video -- but it is also the first video it is trying, so I'm not sure whether that is significant. Is BD-RB working with other discs?

[Crocluvr92]

Yes, just not these titles:

V for Vendetta
The Matrix
Iron Man 2
Blood Diamond
Constantine

[lukappaseidue]

Hi everybody.
I've just installed latest release ob BD-Rebuilder but ,it seems that with WINDOWS 8 pro, the software doesn't start. Any solution to solve?
Thank You very much

[jdobbs]

Yes, just not these titles:

V for Vendetta
The Matrix
Iron Man 2
Blood Diamond
Constantine I've done all of those movies. In fact "The Matrix" is one of the test discs I keep on my harddrive and do for virtually every release.

I would suggest you completely remove HAALI, AVISYNTH, and FFDSHOW -- and they reinstall them all exactly as instructed in the first post of this thread.

[setarip_old]

@lukappaseidue

Hi!

The following (from Post #1 in this thread) is likely required for proper installation under Windows 8: Note to Windows 7 Users: The first time (and only the first time) you run BD Rebuilder, you may have to "Run As Administrator". This is necessary so BD-RB can make CODEC preference changes in the Windows Registry.

[jdobbs]

V for Vendetta
The Matrix
Iron Man 2
Blood Diamond
Constantine

thank you very much for your reply
I've followed the instruction of 1st page, but with no luck. the 1st time of usage a windows show ...OCX not registered.... soon after I tryed to "run as adiministrator".... but the system freeze :(

[jdobbs]

I've followed the instruction of 1st page, but with no luck. the 1st time of usage a windows show ...OCX not registered.... soon after I tryed to "run as adiministrator".... but the system freeze :(Aren't you glad you decided to upgrade to Windows 8 before the bugs are worked out?

I personally will wait until they wring it out. There has never been a clean major release of Windows (that I can remember) that didn't require patching after the first "final release" -- and I go all the way back to v1.00 in the 1980's. You can follow this very thread and see the issues they caused in Vista and Windows 7.

What OCX is it mentioning? There are several.

[slimm]

It's running fine for me under Windows 8. I had to right click on the
REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT file and select "run as administrator".

[jdobbs]

It's running fine for me under Windows 8. I had to right click on the
REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT file and select "run as administrator". So that means that Windows 8 no longer includes the MSCOMCTL.OCX as a part of its standard distribution. Interesting. I added that .BAT file because some distributions (not all) of Vista & Windows 7 had that issue.

I'll add that step to the installation instructions.

[klas]

But I think it is very slow.It is necessaryt to optimize for windows 8.
The extracting it is very, very slow.

Regards and zhanks for the program

Regards and zhanks for the program That has absolutely nothing to do with BD Rebuilder. Call Microsoft and tell them their new operating system sucks and is slower than Windows 7.

Do they know how ridiculous it is for someone to have to "optimize their code" for a new release of an operating system? How do you think Apple would fair if suddenly those 10,000+ apps for the iPad stopped working because they needed to be "optimized"?

I realize Microsoft owns the PC world right now -- but based on their attitude and lack of vision, I have doubts this will still be a M$ world in 5 years.

...stepping down off my soapbox.


By the way -- if it is slow, you typically want to check some of the security or search settings. For example, you will find that a drive that has indexing enabled (look at its properties) is significantly slower than one without -- and frankly it really doesn't give you much in return. I also find that disabling anti-virus software when I'm running jobs makes a lot of difference too. Any new "security features" in Windows 8? If so, try disabling them.

[abbadon]

you should add Windows 8 to list of issues you don't support, would make life a lot easier

systen still crashing


I've followed the "slimm" step:
Fist I've deleted BD_Rebuilder....
then unzipped the archive
Run "AS administrator" REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT
First time a window show that there is no MSCOMCTL.OCX
So i 've copyied the ocx file in windows directory a and system32 too.
again Run "AS administrator" REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT
and it was ok.
so, last step, I "run as administrator BDRB..
no luck.... system crash again (need to push reset button)

It's something in your setup. I've been using BD-RB in windows 8 since the original RC1 win8 release. I'm now using the RTM on more than one machine without any issues at all.

I plan to run Windows 8 for testing purposes soon. I seriously doubt I come across any problems, given how I like to run my OS's :p I disable the administrative crap. I'm the only one who uses my computer. They should almost ask this upon install. So we don't have to deal with this silly... stuff! And it sounds like more than a few are successfully using windows 8 and BD-Rebuilder.

Once again, I've stopped receiving updates to this thread. I guess I need to post here every so often :S I'm still running 4203, because I received no update. I should know better though ;)

The program just works 99.9% of the time :D Heck, even Dvd rebuilder encounters the occasional problem. I forget what the last one was. Oh, that's right. It was an unstable Ram overclock. Oddly, it and another, were the only programs affected by it. (so technically, it wasn't the programs fault, an overclock was to blame).

[lauguru]

hello jdobbs
could be added in the next version of bd-rebuilder origin - iso folder?
thanks

[Ch3vr0n]

why? Just use a virtual drive like "Virtual Clone Drive" available on slysoft.com, mount the iso, point BDRB to the virtual drive & done

yes, that I know, but I think it would be a good option for people who do not know. (A friend to another, I commented) but thanks for answering;)

[jdobbs]

yes, that I know, but I think it would be a good option for people who do not know. (A friend to another, I commented) but thanks for answering;)That would be a major project. I don't see it happening any time soon.

[lauguru]

That would be a major project. I don't see it happening any time soon.

ok, it was just to comment, it would be possible. thanks:)

[rippn]

I just snagged v0.42.04 and I'm getting

- X264: Wrong version found

Any ideas? Thanks.

Edit: Nevermind, knew it was on my end since no one else had the problem. I usually just copy new versions on top of the old to retain settings, but some reason this was causing the error. Even going and getting the new x264 binaries didn't fix it. Anyway just deleted everything and started fresh resolved it.

[setarip_old]

@rippn

Hi!

Glad to hear you resolved your self-created problem;>}

If you read post #1 of this thread, you'll see that it clearly states that you MUST use the versions of supporting programs that are listed/linked to in that post.

I'm sure jdobbs will look forward to your beta testing contributions.

Once again, glad to hear you've resolved it...

Hi. At 51 minutes into the movie I notice the jerky effect as the segments where changed. Segment changes before then looked and sounded smooth.

I saw something like this a while ago on one of the Harry Potter movies. There was a slight stutter at the boundaries of the original m2ts files. The video hadn't been re-encoded since it could fit on a BD25. I used the ForceEncode option and found that the stutters went away after that. It seemed odd to me, at the time, but it worked.

I have no idea if that would affect what you are seeing. Just FYI.

[AmigaFuture]

RobertM: I hadn't considered that, yet. I noticing using MultiAVCHD to remove the Languages and SUPs on "The Hunger Games" and "Toy Story" movies that tsMuxeR is removing overlapping audio frames. I wonder if tsMuxeR is doing the same with BD-RB and that has something to do with it because the burned project results in the same with BD-RB. Thank You.

I tried it with re-encode forced..still same. I then had BD-RB reencode the AC3 also, still the same...with The Hunger Games.. Movie and Menus was used. Now I'm trying Full Backup with nothing blanked by my choosing.

Now I'm trying Full Backup with nothing blanked by my choosing. If you are rebuilding all combined into a single unit (movie-only) -- yes you are removing the overlapping audio frames in BD-RB via TSMUXER. But, if you keeping the original (multi-part) format you are not removing them (nor should you).

I'm confident that isn't an issue -- but I'll go back and make sure, just to be safe. I want to make sure that the length of the audio access unit (frame size) of AC3 is properly considered when converting from DTS. But, frankly, if this truly were an issue -- I would expect to have seen hundreds of bug reports from people who are doing full backups of multi-part sources.

[AmigaFuture]

@jdobbs Thank You for the reply. I get your info, and noticed rebuilding to an MKV does produce a smooth movie. So tsMuxeR Is doing the same with BD-RB...that confirms what I thought. I'd love to know the differences between your hardware and mine so I could reproduce it with my 3 machines. Whatever it is will be notice soon enough. No worries here.

[rippn]

Just wanted to pass this info on.

Just upgraded to windows 8 and when trying to register the "MSCOMCTL.OCX" using the "REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT" running as administrator I kept getting the error "The module "MSCOMCTL.OCX" failed to load. Make sure the binary is stored at the specified path or debug it to check for problems with the binary or dependent .DLL files. The specified module could not be found."

Per the following linked site, Windows 8 UAC is causing problems for people trying to manually register OCX and DLL files. More info about this here (http://www.hudsoft.com/products/whosin/windows8.html).

That same site also created a tool "OCXregisterTool.exe" that can be downloaded here (http://www.hudsoft.com/products/whosin/support-files.html).

Just put "OCXregisterTool.exe" in the same folder you extracted BD Rebuilder in, run OCXregisterTool as administrator, and click "Register MSCOMCTL.OCX" and your all set.

Hope that helps.


so, last step, I "run as administrator BDRB..
no luck.... system crash again (need to push reset button)
:(

Edit: Just wanted to confirm, running BD Rebuilder as administrator in windows 8 locks the system up entirely. Using the OCXregisterTool as mentioned above and running BD Rebuilder normally works great, no crash or lock up.

[jdobbs]

I'm sure Microsoft will at some point release a patch that corrects this and the other issues associated with Windows 8. That's probably about where I'll upgrade. This is a lesson learned from Windows 1.0, Windows 2.0, Windows 3.0, Windows NT, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.

The bottom line is that this is a Microsoft issue, not a BD-RB issue. Their utility (regsvr32.exe) is the one that has being replaced by the software you mention. What's wrong with that picture?

M$ never gets it right the first time.

[maonstad]

Thanks. I believe I did have the correct fdshow and the same error showed up. But at least I know that the speedmenu is incompatible and will rip movies without it.

[omegaman7]

I wouldn't be so quick to judge FFDSHOW. For a time, I used Ripbot264. It requires constantly updated FFDSHOW versions. BDrebuilder had no troubles with the versions I ran. Of course if I had any problems, that would be the first place I'd look. Jdobbs has made troubleshooting a fair amount easier, with the inspect tool ;)

[Ch3vr0n]

And let that tool now exactly report he's using the wrong version as i said early 4483 is not a supported bdrb ffdshow version

Verstuurd van mijn HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e met Tapatalk

[soneca]

I also have used the latest versions of ffdshow without any problems, but if I have a problem, I have no right to complain.
But I also think recent versions should be tested from time to time so that the supported version does not become as obsolete.

[omegaman7]

They release versions of FFDSHOW fairly often, last time I checked. That would make things very BUSY for Jdobbs LOL! Not a big deal for me to test myself. If there's an issue relating to FFDSHOW, simply rollback and see what happens ;) I think some people are simply afraid to get their hands dirty LOL! Nah, they just wanna click click burn. Which I guess I can appreciate. I've been there. And for some people, these jobs do take a fair amount of time ;)
