BD Rebuilder Beta - Bug Reports Only

[Sharc]

Second: it's not in 3D (is it due to DS being used or does MP4 not support 3D)

I have no clue if it's due to DS being used, or because the main title is split into 3 files (2 containing the main title), 1 containing an 0.04MB black clip, or something wrong in that profile


Your profile works well here, but did you .....
Settings=>Setup => tick "Enable SBS/OU 3D Movie-only output" AND deselect "Process 3D video sources as 2D for backup"?
FRIM will automatically kick in.

If you however want it as a 2D output you need to....
Settings=>Setup=> tick "Process 3D video sources as 2D for backup"
DS will kick in.

No i hadn't. Cause up to now i had no use for it, hardly ever do movie-only remember ;) Retrying :)

Hmmm, interesting...

You guys had been discussing before about how the newer version of BDRB the x264_64.exe is running slower than older versions. I was just now trying to do a pretty simple encode with BDRB using a movie only of about 25 Gigs with, GASP, 'auto' settings (I can see Ch3vr0n & Sharc nodding sagely...) I have always used the LAV frame server and it's been great, but this time I noticed, I THINK for the very first time, that when doing the 1 pass ABR encode (to BD-25) the CPU utilization was only about 70-75%. It has ALWAYS run close to 100 before. And then I remembered what you guys were talking about. So, I'm trying changing it to FRIM to see how it does (I still keep getting the eternal 'AnyDVD' error if I try to use DirectShow whatever the source)

What's interesting is that I'm also running off a bunch of fast encodes for my Dad's tablet (old movies) where I am using the CMD line with 'veryfast' and a CRF of 24, and in these cases the CPU seems to be running at full capacity. Now, the weird thing is that the path I am using for the CMD line encodes is: D:\EXECUTABLES\BD-RBV05018\BD_Rebuilder\Tools\x264-64.exe, HUH...? Soooo, I don't understand why when I run an encode through BDRB it appears to be using a lot less CPU, but when I call that exact same .exe from BDRB's folder for the CMD line encode it runs at full capacity.

How is that possible...?

Okay, my FRIM encode is running now and the x264_64 running at full CPU capacity.

Weird...

[Ch3vr0n]

Don't drag me into movie only bd25 discussions, I never said anything about it or will i make a claim in favor of against it, for the simple reason I don't do those. If your want to make those, by all means that's your choice and right. Neither will i make any judgement or have i ever made one against setting your own quality preferences. I only said that FOR ME, bdrb's automatic quality has never let me down for full disc bd25 copy. I'm not going to make any type of judgement, the settings you use won't bother me in any way nor will mine affect yours.

YOU decide YOUR settings based on YOUR needs and preferences, I do the same for ME and me alone. I'll leave it at that.

As to the speed of x264, if you'll look a couple posts back you'll see that jdobbs confirmed that behavior. Some changes that were done between 2 versions of a certain build caused a significant drop in processing fps.

[Lathe]

Heh... You must be REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAL fun at parties Bro... :)

[Lathe]

Anyway, I'm running a CMD line CRF-18 encode right now, of the exact same Blu-ray as before it so happens, and I am using the x264_64.exe that is in the current version BDRB folder and it is running at full capacity. So, all I'm say'n is that I can't see how it can be the specific version of x264_64 that the current version of BDRB is using that is causing the slowdown, that's all. Unless I misunderstood the earlier discussion where it SOUNDED like everyone was saying that it WAS the specific current .exe that was causing it. But used by itself it isn't. However, when USING BDRB on the last encode as I mentioned, when I switched to FRIM instead of LAVF the utilization went from about 70-75% to full capacity.

Ah, now your log looks fine!
Just a thought: The final CRF is in the order of 27 means the quality may not be too exciting. You could increase the target size to bring the CRF down, or encode the audio to AAC instead of ac3 to leave more space for the video, or if size doesn't matter make a fix CRF encode right from the beginning.
Secondly, I wonder whether your tablet can decode 720-SBS 3D correctly and sync the 3D goggles. Well, that's just a question.....

[Ch3vr0n]

Don't worry about the 3d part. That's just an experiment to find out if mp4 supported SBS 3d. I just need a decent working 720p mp4 profile with ac3 audio. Why 720p, because if the tab 3 screen resolution.

Your initial mp4 muxing failure is most probably due to the fact that .dts audio is not officially supported in mp4 container, means one has to re-encode the .dts audio to ac3 or AAC, i.e. one cannot leave the source .dts audio intact for the mp4 container.

I looked it up. It says there is a subscript out of range at location 2408 (a progress indicator I created for debugging) as it is processing secondary video tracks. That is very old code (it hasn't changed in years). I suspect you have a corrupted source.

What disc are you processing?

I hope this is the proper forum for this.
It seems I've broken BD Rebuilder. It worked previously but now It fails every time. Not sure if it's related but I recently installed Handbrake to shrink an MKV file. Not satisfied with the result I uninstalled it. It was about that time that BD Rebuilder began to fail. I'm hoping someone may spot something in the logs that I am missing. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

@ Rad10act1v3 RE: I hope this is the proper forum for this.
It seems I've broken BD Rebuilder.

I can't think of any other forum to go to either. IF you search this forum you will see countless times this has happened to others. Unfortunately the only solution that is always recommended is to completely uninstall BD_Rebuilder and then do the reinstall using the "First Page" instructions. I wish there was a simpler way to do all that but this does usually give you a working BD_Rebuilder again.

[jdobbs]

Yep. Uninstall and reinstall. It takes less than 10 minutes to do the whole thing.

[Ch3vr0n]

Not exactly. Neither of you both seem to have caught that he modified the log

[09/05/16] BD Rebuilder v0.50.16
[10:16:35] Source: SOME_MOVIE


For all we know BDRB is just fine, and the source is some random pre-processed downloaded rip.

[Rad10act1v3]

First of all, thanks so much for the quick responses, but it seems I didn't provide enough info. I used "SOME_MOVIE" as as a generic term encompassing many attempts with many different movies, all of which play with TMT 5 or PowerDVD 12, as either an ISO or when extracted to a folder.
I have uninstalled/reinstalled everything related to BD Rebuilder, video and audio, including my drivers. I have deleted the BD_Rebuilder folder, downgraded to a previous (50.16) version and still it fails. I can't remember if I downgraded AVISynth from 2.60 to 2.57 so I guess I'll give that a try.
I'm using the 2A. Download and install the LAV Directshow Filters. Use only the version linked here -- as other versions may result in out-of-sync audio. While not required for BD-RB to work, LAVFilters will improve functionality and are free. They are required for some functionality associated with HEVC import and processing. method based on it being preferred.
I've tried everything and am now considering reinstalling Windows. I can post DXdiag info if needed. I was hoping I just had setting conflict.
Again, thanks for the support.

Have you checked to make sure that whatever you are using to rip your original commercial disk is up to date and functioning properly?

[worknstiff]

Hey Rad10act1v3 RE: Just spit-balling this BUT have you tried the OBVIOUS by removing the (X264 Tweak(s) enabled) that show up in your previous log?

[jdobbs]

Whether it plays is irrelevant. A player can play right through a problem -- but you can't do that when you have to reencode.

Honestly I'm not sure what it might be.

[jdobbs]

BD-RB will keep small M2TS files intact when outputting to BD-25/50. This is because they are too small to reduce size by any meaningful amount -- and to reencode them is a waste of time. By default files under 100MB are not reencoded, but you can adjust that value with the hidden option MIN_M2TS_SIZE. There are also other considerations that might result in some streams not being encoded (for the sake of expediency).

But... when outputting to BD-5/9 (DVD media) you don't have that option because the bitrate used for Blu-Ray is higher than a DVD can handle. So BD-RB has to reencode them (regardless of size).

Sometimes encoding (or not encoding) a stream can have impacts on other streams. For example, if you encode (or not encode) one part of a multi-part stream you have to do the same for all parts.

[AmigaFuture]

So basically its not worth the hassle of trying to run it on Parallels running windows 7 then?

I've used BD Rebuilder with VMWare Workstation, though it has been a long, long time. It did well but it's much slower since it's stripped to a Basic machine. Does not have Graphics Board support of any kind that way. I don't use Parallels...for me, it makes too much of a "mess" of things that VMWare Workstation doesn't do.
What I'd suggest, if your Mac's HDD has the free space is create a Windows Partition which would give you full access to the Graphics Board and other hardware (which means full speed). Anyway, if you're cool with basic functionality and Okay speeds while using Mac OS, then enjoy. I don't post logs here of any errors because as JDobbs typed..no support and that's understandable. So your own experiences and willingness to debug is what you have to rely on unless you reproduce the error with a real machine.

@ lauguru; RE: however if I select output BD5 / 9, if the entire structure, I can do to release the complete structure appears BD25 full backup?

I always use the Movie & Menu's (Auto Blank Extras) mode to see all the tiny bits and pieces of the Blu-ray when trying to see what I can reasonably blank without killing the menu or some little extra I'd like to keep. I output to a 50,000 MB size and let BD Rebuilder create a folder. I then move this to another hard drive and feed it to back to BD Rebuilder as a FULL backup and a 23350 custom size. This results in a better sized Blu-ray than when I attempt to do it on the first rebuild. Takes about 25-30 minutes longer but it usually results in a lot better sized disk and seems to play better because it jumps over all the previously blanked parts more smoothly. This is especially good when you have a disk that repeatedly over or under sizes.

[lauguru]

at the end, I put 500 mb least in custom target and the result was successful 23,8gb to 23.2 gb. (24315 to 23750mb)

It is one of the blurays, which gave me more work


Of course they are.In this case note the "*" in the streams list. Sometimes encoding (or not encoding) a stream can have impacts on other streams. For example, if you encode (or not encode) one part of a multi-part stream you have to do the same for all parts.

[lauguru]

although you put BD50 output and FORCE_ENCODE=1, extras not appear on the log list, it seems that only the movie was recoded, although they were added to fullbd without recoding

allways 23,8gb (24315mb output)
output 23750mb and result 23,2 gb :)
