I just had to jump through hoops again to make a DVD from my "A Star Is Born" (2018 release) blu-ray, as BDRB is unable to create a DVD directly from this (and many other) BDs.
It failed towards the end of "Starting to MPLEX":
[21:32:59]PHASE TWO - Rebuild Started
- [21:32:59] Building ALTERNATE OUTPUT Structure
- [21:32:59] Converting 1 subtitles to DVD format.
- [21:33:46] Starting MPLEX.
- ERROR in attempt to mux (MPLEX)
[21:35:37] - Failed to REBUILD
I got it to work by:
The BD was ripped to hard disc using DVDFab64.
I then created a movie only BD50 folder/files using BDRB and forcing BDRB to convert the audio to lossy Dolby Digital by unchecking everything under "Audio Encoding Options" in Setup.
Then I used BDRB to create a DVD from those BD folder/files successfully.
It appears the process to create a DVD from a BD in BDRB doesn't like the lossless audio tracks in many titles?

Rich86:
Your Log is incomplete. [Snips] are good when redundancy is not required. Movie-Only Alt. output (DVD) will create AC-3 (Lossy). BD-RB isn't about "like" or "not like".. It's about function; logic.
Low HD space? Stuff missing. DVD's also uses Dolby Digital (AC-3) which is Lossy.

It appears the process to create a DVD from a BD in BDRB doesn't like the lossless audio tracks in many titles?Well, I found the issue... but it isn't BD-RB. The DD TRUE_HD track has an issue. BD-RB extracts the core audio -- and, strangely enough, it is 448Kbs (instead of 640Kbs as you normally see). That isn't really an issue since 448Kbs is what is used on DVD. But... it makes BD-RB try to use it intact. The problem is that the core audio track is corrupt. So when MPLEX tries to mux it, it gets this error:
**ERROR: [mplex.exe] Can't find next AC3 frame: @ 456128512 we have e027 - broken bit-stream?
The other english track is DTS-HD XLL. That one is used by default on my system. It works fine because BD-RB correctly realizes it must be encoded.
I'll try to put a fix in by adding an option in which the audio is forced to be reencoded.

It works fine with the 2nd Eng (DTS) for me to DVD-5/9. The 1st failed for me, as it did for JD...
Rich86
6th March 2019, 15:56
Yes - I had chosen the 1st audio track and it (mplex) failed trying to go to DVD-5 output. As I described, when I ran BDRB to create a movie only BD50 and forced the conversion of the True_HD track to lossy AC3 - then it ran fine. Then I ran BDRB again using the created movie only BD to make the DVD-5 and that ran fine.
I didn't think to try using the DTS track as the source when trying to go directly from the original BD to DVD5.
Thanks for looking at this.

It's really not that bad. Despite being a bit big, once you remove all the tiles, it looks a lot like a classic start menu just more modern.
There's no need for third party stuff.

I have attempted many times to enjoy the "modern" look. Flat, bland colors are good for an older OS before pizzazz was possible. I like the correct "Window" logo vs ?colored windows? logo (WHO puts "Wallpaper" over a Window anyway? A lot of hidden activity in the background also; lots of snooping.) No one from the State, of Federal where I live enjoys it. Most people I know deal with it because they aren't "tech enough to remove it". Now our Phones look like it. Anyway, I dig changes - not Loseer10. My son works at Intel and has told me a lot also. I would obliterate the tiles/Browser incorporation..not remove them. At least Windows 7 control panel is still there last time I checked. Auto-Updates are also...lame-as-the-figment.
Making Windows 10 mandatory...also excludes a large part of the population that doesn't dig, like, or even want to use it. Windows 10 was not introduced as a transition, it was forced. Bad, MS...*spanking*.
Anyway, when JD returns, I'm excited for new videos being supported. Taking some videos with my S9, I noticed some challenges as others have. Found work-around but... I'm laughing because now I'm also interested in the UHD support (camera).

I've been quite happy with W8 which I've had since it came out. I know it's kind of a bastardized version since Windows I believe now only recognizes 8.1 Everything has always run simply and smoothly. I DO use Classic Start Menu for the Retro look and it gives you a crapload of options for how Explorer looks and works. And, of COURSE the very first thing I had the guy do who was building my computer at the time and going from W7 to W8 was IMMEDIATELY eliminate all the tiles! But, to be fair, I've never tried W10, and for all I know it could run better or faster. Just REALLY don't like changing my OS.

I've been messing with Start10 and WindowBlinds with XP and Seven skins. Ahhh, finally...doesn't look so horrible-eye-sore. Tiles are replaced, Yeess!!! Now I'm checking speeds...as well as how it functions with BD-RB. So far I haven't noticed the browse button click-no-response, click-again-and-get-the-prompt "bug" isn't there. Hmmm. 10 is supposed to be a lot better with RAM+CPU, so..for now, on a test partition only. Once in a great while it required 2 to 3 clicks before the source browse button actions of BD-RB would show a prompt.

Hmmm, well, I certainly could use 'a lot better' with RAM & CPU, that's for sure! :) I just FINALLY realized today that I had my CPU set to 'Turbo', which under normal circumstances is fine. BUT... I've been having x264 fail on encodes, so I checked the CPU temperature and I know that's it because I've been having some very long-standing trouble with it. Just today I had an encode fail part way through. So, just on a whim, mainly to see if I could boost the CPU fan speed or something, I noticed the Turbo setting. So, I THINK I put it back to normal. After rebooting up the system, I re-checked the CPU temperature, and sure enough, even during the same encode again, it was a HELL of a lot cooler, at least in CPU terms. So, maybe that will get me by until I am bloody forced to build another system.

Hello everybody,
I'm trying to use the function "movie only" to fit one film UHD o a BDR-DL.
the main movie is a file.M2TS of 53GB, so removing additional languages it is within 50GB.
if I look at the log both audio and video are processed without re-encoding.
I use a player to see original M2TS file and it is ok
I use a player to see HEVC file inside WORKFILES directory, and it is ok
But when I open final M2TS file after rebuilding, the video is jerky, audio plays ok but it goes more and more out of synchro (because video is jerky).
practically the video is becoming longer because every 4-5 secs it hangs for 1 second.
any idea?
thanks a lot :thanks:

My problem is not the uhd bd structure, I'm not burning a disc but I'm just trying mux files on hard disk.
It seems bitrate has an influence, if I reencode with lower bitrate like 35000 the Effect is less, but still present.

It misses recognizing the start of some frames and then buries the frame within the PES packet of another. As a result the timestamps get way off, sync is lost, and you get jerky playback. After TSMuxer creates the structure, the video stream has to be remuxed completely to correct it. I'm working on that for BD-RB, but just haven't had a lot of free time lately.

I've been dealing with DTS XLL/HD-MA tracks, and I'm starting to keep the tracks. Or rather, instructing BD rebuilder to do so on MKV outputs(Keep original audio). I've been noticing that the outputs lose more than half their bitrate/file size(3700K becomes 1500K). Since I don't see BD Rebuilder "Encoding Audio Track", I'm assuming there's another explanation?
I've dismissed it for a few encodes, since i'm sure the difference is negligible. But now I'm curious lol

Keeping the core of an HD/MA audio stream does not require recoding. After the MKV file is created, run it through Media Info to see if the HD/MA audio is still there, or not.

The output file says compression mode: lossy. Nothing of HD-MA.
So, the original HD-MA has redundant audio information? In that when removed, it's unnoticed? Apologies, my current audio system is bordering on analog, and my understanding not much better lol
MrVideo
16th March 2019, 02:18
Each of the high-def (actually a misnomer) audio formats have in their core the base codec, i.e.Dolby Digital 5.1 @ 640k and DTS 5.1 @ 1509k. That is to allow for players, amps, etc. that do not know about the non-lossy formats to be able to play them. That also allows for programs to also extract the core. No idea why BDRB is extracting the core instead of keeping the whole stream.

You have disabled "Keep HD Audio for BD25/Alternate Intact". Which reduces core. It doesn't rerender the Audio.

Since I'm outputting MKV, I didn't think that setting would apply.

16th March 2019, 22:02
Since I'm outputting MKV, I didn't think that setting would apply.Make sure you have "Keep HD Audio for BD25/Alternate Intact" checked on the SETUP dialog. You also have to select (or create) an ALTERNATE profile that has aType set to 2 (intact audio). If those two conditions are met, then both the core and the HD audio will be kept.
Just a warning, though. In creating an MKV the HD and core audio are muxed separately (as two independent audio streams). An MKV doesn't support two audio types muxed as one stream like Blu-Ray does. That fact makes it even more complicated when you go the other way (from MKV to Blu-Ray), since the Blu-Ray standard doesn't support the HD stream without the core.
Output to MKV is Alternate output (non BD)... so the setting "Keep HD Audio for BD25/Alternate Intact" applies.

Has anyone else updated to DGDecNV 2053 dated 2019-03-10 and run into any issues using it with BD-RB? Initially I was getting errors related to extracting subs and then after playing around with settings, a clean BD-RB install, etc, the problem moved to errors when doing CRF prediction. I spent a number of hours trying to figure out why I was running into issues seemingly out of nowhere until I remembered that I had recently updated from the previous DGDecNV version. I reverted back to the older version, 2053 dated 2019-02-23, and things appear to be working again. So far.

I definitely agree that it is odd. DG does "slipstream" in changes and there have been a number since February 23rd. You can find the changes here: http://rationalqm.us/board/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=463&start=150. Slipstream 170-172 are the new changes; the last 3 posts.
With the above said, all backups were failing with the latest version, slipstream 172. All. I was beginning to get extremely concerned. I dropped back to the older release, sleepstream 169, and I have one successful backup completed and a second 75% completed. Once the current backup finishes I am going to move to the new version again with the download I previously used to see if the failures return. I'll then test with a new download of the same version.
I'll report back my results.

Ugh. DG moved the binaries. :mad: He changed the location of the x86 binaries to a sub directory so BD-RB was pointing to the wrong location. If I correct the path to the DGDecNV files I bet the problem will miraculously go away.
EDIT: I corrected the path in BDREBUILDER.INI to point to the files in the new sub directory that DG moved the dgdecnv EXE and DLL to. The failure still occurred. So, I moved them to the base directory like they used to be and then set the paths again in BDREBUILDER.INI. Now things are working. Problem solved.

What do you mean DG moved the files? You're the one that copies them into place, as I did, and you're the one that picks the BD-RB location from Settings/Edits the prefs. Do you mean Donald Graft performed a magic(miracle) act on your Windows install you don't understand? :p

OK, on another DVD, of the same 90210 S1, I told BDRB to import two of the special feature files. It did, in that the Stream directory has the two files. But, when I import the current project into the Batch queue, it only converted the 2nd M2TS file into a MKV. The first file was ignored, not even mentioned in the log.
When I re-did it, only selecting the first file that it wouldn't do, it did it.

18 is high quality.
Basically,
low crf = high quality, big file size
high crf = low quality, small file size
If you go too low the file becomes bigger than the source file so you have to find a compromise. No one can tell you what you would like because it's subjective. You have to experiment a bit.

Thank you in advance!!A CRF of 23 is X264's default and is a good compromise between size and quality. A value of 16 is pretty close to a lossless encode, but creates a huge file size. Anything below that is massive overkill. I'd recommend keeping it at 23, but if you are really worried about quality, try something a bit lower.

Hi Jdobbs and yes I´m talking about quality I mean, the idea is to get approximately the same quality that you got with you have the full bluray BD50, if I have the UHD from some movie so far I understand it I can convert to Full hd but keeping the quality of BD50 ?
What is exactly, dear Jjdobbs of CRF number to obtain, I dont know, 48gb is the normal size of a BD50?
i really hope you can understand it because English is not my first language
Thank you in advance!!

18 is high quality.
Basically,
low crf = high quality, big file size
high crf = low quality, small file size
If you go too low the file becomes bigger than the source file so you have to find a compromise. No one can tell you what you would like because it's subjective. You have to experiment a bit.
Yes I tried it with a very low crf and I get a120gb larger file
Like I said to Jdobbs the idea is to encode UHD to Full hd but the result file keep the BD50 quality and fit on a 48gb file
ps: as an example, think just like this, we have an UHD file that we need to encode to Fullhd but keeping the quality and the file size have to br 46/48gb (a BD50 disc)
You know what I mean?
Excuse me my English I try to do my best

If you want to hit a certain target size .. select "Two Pass Target Size (MB)" and enter the size you want. Not CRF.

Thank you for that speaking about CRF I forget about that option but, as I always use BD rebuilder with CRF option and I love the quality I preffer to keep using this crf option dear Sneaker because maybe I get a lite bigger file size but that file I´ll can convert again with BD rebuilder this time to fit an BD25 is that correct?
I mean, maybe no matters if the file size is 48 or 80gb, Bd rebuilder can convert this file to a BD25 keeping the amazing quality is that correct?
ps: if you all have to convert UHD to Full hd using CRF what number you put there?

You are confusing me. What is your goal? Why are you doing this? Are you targeting HDD, BD25 or BD50?
