BD Rebuilder Beta - Bug Reports Only

[AmigaFuture]

Quick question. I'm trying to remove some extras and all the warnings, comments, etc screens from my ISOs. Not doing any re-encoding. If I want to see all the smaller streams, I have to select Output Options as DVD5 or DVD9. Anything higher hides all the smaller streams. I can Force No Encode but if I'm selecting DVD5 or DVD9 LPCM will re-encode to AC3 as it's not a BD size and won't ignore encoding. Any way to see all the small streams AND Force No Encode on LPCM audio?

Slower answer to a quick question. Change output to BD-50. You might also need "MIN_M2TS_SIZE=1". Without quotes.

[lithiumus]

I searched the thread and based on what jdobbs indicated, if the custom target size is set above 8500, HD audio will be allowed to be kept and not reencoded. However, as soon as I set the target size to 8501, all the smaller streams disappear from the stream tab and I can't blank any of the warning and commentaries screens.

Used

MIN_M2TS_SIZE=0
MIN_PLAYLIST_MINS=0

And it that did the trick.

[lithiumus]

Hey jdobbs, finally back and setup for some UHD testing for you. Just to check, I did some no-encode backups and blanked some extras and even with no re-encoding and keeping all the original streams, the stuttering and audio sync issues are present. Just confirming that this is true as I assume if it was tsmuxer, even original streams would also be affected. LMK, happy to test for you.

[MrVideo]

Used

MIN_M2TS_SIZE=0
MIN_PLAYLIST_MINS=0
That is weird. I would have expected that to give you everything.

[lithiumus]

That is weird. I would have expected that to give you everything.

There are a lot of warnings like the "Commentaries expressed by..." that are smaller than 1mb will show up if you use = 0. So better to use 0 and see them all and select the ones you don't want to see that can delay your enjoyment of the video, etc.

[jdobbs]

Used

MIN_M2TS_SIZE=0
MIN_PLAYLIST_MINS=0

And it that did the trick.Those are the defaults when outputting to BD-5/9 because all playlists have to be encoded. A DVD can't can't handle the higher bitrates of an original BD.

Posted this in the TSM2UHD thread (by mistake) and am repeating it here:

Thought I'd post an update on the BD-RB's UHD-BD processing.

I've completed and tested the HEVC muxing routines and all is well. BD-RB corrects the TSMUXER M2TS for HEVC output and replaces the MPLS and CLPI files (corrupt due to TSMUXERs HEVC muxing issue) with those internally generated by BD-RB. The output works perfectly on my Sony UHD player.

Now I am making modifications to the import routines so they will also correct for TSMUXERs actions. It's not as easy as you may think, since I still need TSMUXER to combine multi-part playlists during import and to mux the other (non-hevc) streams. I've also done research on how BDs handle DolbyVision streams. An extra video track containing the DolbyVision data is muxed as a separate stream into the M2TS file. Since TSMUXER has no awareness of that stream (it thinks it's just another secondary video) I have to go back through my code and make changes so that it can be integrated properly into output. I'm not sure how long that will take -- but I don't expect it to be extensive.

All in all things are moving along -- albeit slowly. I may get a version out for testing in the next few days, but at the latest I'll get it out by EOY.

[AmigaFuture]

In other words, it isn't in the log. :D

That is true. The point is that most programs report that it has run out of disc space, Just being friendly to the user. In this case, BDRB ran out of HD space and went off in a tangent. The tangent made me believe that there was something wrong with the source file. IMHO, a bug.

How does a tangent "make" you accept there's something wrong with the source? [edited] Tangents are more living-things related than programs or hardware. :)

That's what happens when you spend a lot of time with UHD and not enough squishing bugs for breaks. Your eyes and fingers go cross. :D

Your da man jdobbs i loved BD Rebuilder before and going to love it more when you get it all working for UHD and i will be donating to you and hope more people will to.to keep this program going:thanks:

Your da man jdobbs i loved BD Rebuilder before and going to love it more when you get it all working for UHD and i will be donating to you and hope more people will to.to keep this program going:thanks:I'm glad I'm doing this. In testing my code I have found a lot more errors in TSMUXER's output. The latest is crazy PTS values that pop up randomly for audio streams. After I get the next version of BD-RB out and address a few bug reports I'll be concentrating on writing my own BD muxing program.

[thecrowler]

Leaving for christmas, and I just wanna say merry christmas and a happy new year to anyone, especially, to jdobbs.
See u next year! :-)

This is what I dig about coders/programmers that have passion. Or anyone that has passion for whatever it is. :)

[varekai]

...I'll be concentrating on writing my own BD muxing program.
That would be great!
Happy Holidays!

[kufo]

Now it is full ten years in beta, but still an important software for a lot people.
Thank you for this gift, jdobbs. :thanks:

[AmigaFuture]

Yep, it's a great Yule gift for Winter Solstice...it's one of the best.

[MrVideo]

After I get the next version of BD-RB out and address a few bug reports I'll be concentrating on writing my own BD muxing program.
Will that be easier than getting the TSMuxer code and fixing it?

[AmigaFuture]

You have it? It's offered by the programmer?

[jdobbs]

Will that be easier than getting the TSMuxer code and fixing it?I'd say the odds of that are slim to zero. We do have the code for TSREMUX though. That's something.

Update: Still working on updates to BD-RB. I've hit a lot of issues -- right now I'm working on making the import routines work. I'm not going to get a release out by end-of-year. But I'll keep plugging along until it's finished. It'll be done when it is done, I guess.

[Ch3vr0n]

Hey don't stress. Family comes first this time of year! Don't let them think you're a stranger.

[jdobbs]

Hey don't stress. Family comes first this time of year! Don't let them think you're a stranger.Good point. Thanks for understanding.

[AmigaFuture]

Blood isn't thicker than water in all families. Yeah, don't be too concerned about it, JD, and it doesn't matter what time of year it is. Aside from family members that are cool to hang around, great programming shouldn't be rushed like it has become 15+ years now. Do a good job, and check it. Then release for us to find what you missed. Wink.

I found the recent DTS to AC-3 problem I'd been chasing. Had to remove Service Pack 1, and install 7 like it was updating TO, than install Service Pack 1 again. Then AviSynth again and it's doing well again. The rest of the bugs we'll chat about when you're available. Stress isn't worth it.

[Ch3vr0n]

Oh if it was up to me, i'd screw one side of the family over on spending time with them over the holidays. I could care less about my father's / brother's side of things, it may sound cold (but for me its the truth/facts). Can't wait for that 60+ yr old to be 6 ft under. Didn't give a damn about me when in school, "patched" things up (at least i made him think that), and i still don't give a damn about him. But hey, for a few times a year, a couple hours of torture (bring cellphone with movies ;)), free food & gifts i'll stick with it.

Anything else, they can shuv it.

To me they're days just like any other (like my B-day). Doesn't mean i can't/wont be considerate of others that do actively and happily need/want/can share the holiday spirit :)

[AmigaFuture]

I wasn't coming from a thought process of regrets, and anger held onto.. I've let go of many things a family member did to me and other members, I just won't hang with that one member, and some others. I also won't help in any way (used to do a lot of computer repair/modifications). Other members kept saying for years "The person has changed." I'd sense and notice all the stuff not changed. I confronted, face to face, made sure I communicated very well and the person understood where we were both coming from. Ran a line of stuff to me, and I caught/busted every bit of it to the face. Everyone is right in their own mind--and some will dig in and be like a very heavy stone. It's a personal choice to allow it to keep happening to you or not. I prefer Zen approaches to many things, but my Scottish heritage has a saying I love, "Don't [keep] tread[ing] on me with impunity [because I'll jack you over if you do.]", so... Agreed, Ch3vr0n. I only suggest not even keeping hold of those "until he's 6 feet under"..thoughts. It's not worth it...for yourself. Just a thought. :) That one family member is just another person to me, not anything +/-. :) I think the Spirit should be year-around not 1 month or selective months. I stopped celebrating "Christmas" years, and years ago..several reasons, that being one of them.

Okay, I've been wondering.. Are you using Samsung Galaxy S9?

[Ch3vr0n]

Me? A galaxy? Hell no. Nexus 6P 128GB model :p I don't like any model with a custom UI shell, i want stock android. All those shells do nothing but slow a device down and add duplicate crappy apps you can't get rid off.

[videoh]

What does this have to do with BDRB?

:readrule:

[Ch3vr0n]

It all started with me responding to jdobbs pretty much saying "family over software". But back on topic now :)

[AmigaFuture]

Was going to take that private but...didn't. Now it is. Pardon the reply..back to BD-RB, agreed. :)

[MrVideo]

I ran into an issue trying to import a BD that BDRB created.

This is an image of what is on the disc, as seen by BDRB (http://vidiot.com/images/BDRB-190102.jpg).

#6 is incorrect. It should have been equal to the menu. Instead I've determined that it is #5. Here is the log:

As can be seen, the menu file was never extracted. The "06" file was actually #5. Well, not exactly. Notice the length difference.

Here is the BDMV file (http://vidiot.com/BDRB-BDMV.zip), minus the M2TS files.

UPDATE: I've discovered that BDRB is doing a title shift. The title for playlist 1 is assigned to playlist 6 (yep, the menu video), The pattern continues such that the title for playlist 5 is assigned to playlist 4. Playlist 5 ends up getting the "06. D- [00-42-44]" title. This happens on all three disks that I've done so far and expect it to do the same for the remaining two.

Hi all hi Jdobbs I hope you start a good new year and please excuse me english is not my first language but I trying to do my best

So, I have on my collection several movies that I like to make a backup and last weeks I was thinking about encode that backup to MKV 265 10 bit (I check and Bd rebuilder cant do that I´m wrong?)

Let me explain, for example I have Star Wars , last days I make a backup with Rebuilder

So, when the BD25 was finish, just for see whats happens I tried to encode this BD25 to MKV 265 10 bit with another program and make me a file around 15gb comparing with the almost 22gb of BD25?

This MKV file with 15gb is a perfect copy of my BD25

So I wonder if I keep this MKV file as backup and some time when I need it if I just restored this MKV again to a BD25 I´ll get the same quality that I previously get when I encode the first time?

For example the DTS audio I encode to AAC

Jdobbs I hope dont be Broking any rules, if I do, just let me know dear please I dont any bad intention

Thank you in advance!!

ps: I can´t find in Bd rebuilder this option

First of all, you should keep the original Blu-Ray disc in a safe place. This is your master for all subsequent re-encodes.
Secondly, as every re-encode of a re-encode (like your MKV 265 10 bit) introduces new losses and artefacts (they might be small though), it is not recommended to keep a re-encode of a re-encode as a master or archival copy.

[jfcarbel]

Upgraded version and want to ensure I refresh/update as its been some time since I updated anything.
Are these settings still valid?

1) Nero AAC:
Just upgraded version and noticed I had in INI file a path to Nero AAC encoder as set below:
NEROAAC=1
NeroAACPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\Nero\NeroAACCodec_v1.5.4\neroAacEnc.exe
Is Nero still the best for quality and recommended? I ask because that was the recommendation many years ago, but I assume the FAAC project has improved.

2) FFSHOW version:
Noticed I am running an very old version at 3382 and looks like for some time 4504 is recommended version.
Should I install new version and will installer move over any custom settings I had in prior version?

3) Multiprocessor settings:
Also noticed using this setting as I have a Intel 6 core CPU and 16GB RAM
MULTIPROCESS=4
Are most folks with multi core using this setting? I have not had any issues with it and been using for some time now.

4) Encode Quality settings
Noticed I switched off auth and set to High Quality Default (ENCODE_QUALITY=2)
And One Pass ABR (ONEPASS_ENCODING=2)
Should I continue using one pass ABR or is CRF now what most use? I understand if I uncheck one pass the output target might be more accurate but it takes more time. Is 2 pass almost double what one pass encoding time takes?

5) Tool versions
noticed am using AVISYNTH Version: 2.5.8.0 and HAALI Splitter: 1.9.42.1
Will update to AVIsynth to latest. But is the version of Splitter the latest, could not tell as readme file does not indicate version that jdobbs recommends.

6) Preview in BDRebuilder
Noticed it launches my MPC classic 6.4.9.1 which is surprising as most bluray are H.264 so would have thought would now launch MPC-HC which I have installed.

You are saying if I pass BD25 to MKV 265 directly, with full quality and AAC audio best quality (just like when you pass the BD25 to MKV with Makemkv) I´ll get loose quality?

My idea like I sayd is encode with Rebuilder to BD25 and not burning to disc but pass is it MKV, you know, 23gb compare with 15gb is something

So what do you say?

[MrVideo]

As pointed out, each and every recode introduces errors into the video. The higher the recoding bitrate, the less errors, but still errors. Going from DTS to AAC is not the best thing to do either. So, do as you were told and keep the original Blu-ray.

Will you notice the recoding errors, probably not.

Hi,

I have just experienced one of those rare cases where BDRB doesn't recognize a disc structure. The BD is called "Ein Vogel auf dem Drahtseil" and a german release of "Bird on a wire". BDRB doesn't read it from ISO and from original with AnyDVD running. If of any help BD Info, BD Edit, Clone BD have no problem showing the discs content. Anything I can provide to help?

As I recall, there are problems running BDRB with AnyDVD running. It was developed to run with disks that had no protection. And, I believe, JD does not respond to issues involving external programs like AnyDVD.

[AmigaFuture]

There's something to disable in AnyDVD, I think.. Anyway, rip the BD to Hard Drive and BD-RB should notice the rip fine.

[Shadow-Man]

Is it possible to override the --bluray-compat switch? I only want to use software players so... (B-Pyramid optimal, GOP 24 - 240)

I read that there is an encoding quality 6 wich enables a custom commandline - but i cant get it to work.

14th July 2012, 14:44

...ENCODE_QUALITY=6 is used for a custom command line. It is only meant for internal testing and very definitely isn't a higher quality level. Without proper usage (also undocumented) it could create a stream that is not BD compliant.


And here are some suggestions (if possible:cool:)

- different Avisynth settings for Main Movie / Bonus Material

- individual resolution settings for movie / extras (movie 1080 - extras 720)

- individual audio settings for movie / extras (i.e. movie dts-hd 5.1 to 640 ac3 5.1 / extras dts 768 5.1 to ac3 192 stereo)

- A copy stream option (usefull when in edit mode und enforce reencoding is used but still some streams should be untouched)

- the possibility to replace an Audio Stream (Main Movie) (for dubbing or uhd audio for bluray i.e. DTS 768 from BD to DTS-HD from uhd)

- the possibility to define a timerange for main movie on episode bluray with extras i.e.
episodes 3 x 45 min / specials: making of 60 min, Intervies 20 min
> timerange 30<>50 so the Episodes will count as "main movies"

- support for qtgmc deinterlacer (auto use on interlaced material, with possibility to edit some switches like preset, ezdenoise, source match - auto set single frame for 1080p and double frame for 720p)

Good point. Thanks for understanding.

Why? Software players have no issue playing BD compatible H.264 encodings.

Hi all hi Jdobbs I have Passengers in UHD and I need to convert to Full HD, I pass from Bluray structure to one MKV file with audios tracks and subtitles and when I use Bd rebuilder 60.04 and in File,Imports, Mkv, I select this passengers UHD MKV file to import so Bd rebuilder should collect all information about it in let me start the convertion to Full hd? I ask this question because I don´t have clear how to do it because Bd rebuilder, just don´t do nothing, I mean, I can select the MKV and Bd rebuilder says

"[14:35:03] Importing MKV: PASSENGERS_(2016)_T00

have a nice day

Wait for JD to release a new version that will allow for UHD to BD backups.
