BD Rebuilder Beta - Bug Reports Only

[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.

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
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,
under certain circumstances that a segment
of a multipart movie-only encode might get
flagged to keep intact while other parts
are encoded.
- Updated the included version of X265.EXE to
a newer release (01/08/2015).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

Jdobbs, thanks for the new version!

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

@ jdobbs

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!?

Ch3vr0n, NO disrespected intended in this reply. Just enjoyed the playfulness.

[Ch3vr0n]

None taken, but it's a relative 'old' post you're referring to. It's been 4-5 years blu-ray DISC first appeared if not longer, and people so call them bd-dvd

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 :)

Groovy, hip, and far out. :)

[Lathe]

Groovy, hip, and far out. :)

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.

[jdobbs]

@AmigaFuture

It looks like the reencoded file "VID_00276_2.AVS.264" is never being created, even though the log shows time for the reencoding. I'll have to look at it.

[soneca]

Apparently this error happens only with the files containing embedded pgs subtitles.
I will do more tests ...

[jdobbs]

Apparently this error happens only with the files containing embedded pgs subtitles.
I will do more tests ...I'll run some MKVs with PGS through. Are the input and output picture sizes the same on your tests?

[soneca]

I'll run some MKVs with PGS through. Are the input and output picture sizes the same on your tests?

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.

[AmigaFuture]

@AmigaFuture

It looks like the reencoded file "VID_00276_2.AVS.264" is never being created, even though the log shows time for the reencoding. I'll have to look at it.

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.

[AmigaFuture]

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


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.

Jdobbs, ok I should have been clearer and previously reported also the problem of subtitles on dvd. :(
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.

[10:04:13] - Encode and Rebuild completeI have a job running now. I'll let you know how it turns out.

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...

Clarification: I can still import from the MKV with no issues. But I can repeat the issue encountered when converting to DVD.

Jdobbs, ok I should have been clearer and previously reported also the problem of subtitles on dvd. :(
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.

[10:04:13] - Encode and Rebuild completeOk. I still have to test it, but I think I have it. It appears the DTS values are lost in the conversion to MKV. I just had to adjust my code to account for that.

You should see it fixed in the next release.

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

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:
- [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!!!

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! :):):)
