BD Rebuilder Beta - Bug Reports Only

[MikeyBK]

No auto play meaning you have to navigate to the m2ts to play it?
If so 'strict AVCHD' disabled won't work but if it's enabled with 0.20.08 tsmuxer it should work on PS3 but it won't work in PowerDVD and 1-2 samsung players. To fix PowerDVD playback replace with tsmuxer 1.10.04+. A few weeks and Samsung players may be fixed. I know exactly why it happens (--avchd vs. --bluray) and there's a few posts in this thread from others and me on how to fix it. The tsmuxer (1.8.4) from 0.28.05 works like 1.10.04+ except no TrueHD output.

I just think he gets as frustrated as I have when the person who needs to hear isn't hearing or isn't around to hear you. More organization of the info might help a lot.

I have no desire to retain Dolby TrueHD nor LPCM, because frankly speaking, there is not much gain over simple AC3 audio streams on a decent sound system...
I've already fixed what I need to attain my BD back-ups, just got caught not paying attention when versions 0.20.07 & 0.20.08 came out... but all's good now. And it was really only an issue with PS3s because my Sony BDP-BX1 plays all my back-ups.

I just wanted to reconfirm if others with PS3s were experieincing the same with BD-RB 0.20.08 using the new version of TSMuxer... and if so, then that using the TSMuxer version from 0.20.05 will fix that auto-play issue without needing to check the 'Strict AVCHD' option... which according to you would cause issues with other players.
;)

What the heck????

[HiDefNOob]

I dont know how to get the error message LSTCMD thingy to work. but I did see this in the error log when I try to back up Indepence Day
it's the us version.

[17:17:03] DoEncoding() 00009 2008

[Tongariro]

YES!!!!!!

There hasn't been a problem with DTSHD\MA for a while.


From some reason my output gets freezes when movie have DTS-MA.

It looks like something wrong with tsmuxer.

I tried to demux using the newest tsMuxeR 1.10.6 - no problem.
mux it back to m2ts just the video and the dts files - no problem in the muxing process.

m2ts freezes.

The same happens using BD RB 20.08 (i tried 07 and 05 and different tsmuxer all same result).

if its working for you can you guess what i am doing wrong?

[pull10k]

I have the movie the orphanage. I am using 20.08. As soon as it scans the directory I get an instant message in a pop up window "Stop statement encountered".
As a test I set BACK my clock so 20.05 would work and it reads the directories no problem. Any thoughts?
All updated and necessary programs are there. Plus I have Vista and XP both and it is the same in both.

This is a known problem hence the reason im still using 0.20.07

[DMagic1]

Its my first time testing BDRebuilder as I never had access to a full Bluray on my harddrive. I've created other BD9 using tsmuxer and multiAVCHD with no issues working on my PS3.

I just created a movie only project with BDRebuilder burned with Imgburn and the PS3 sees it as a data disc.

Any solution to this?

Version used is v0.20.08 with only tools from the released package. No apps switched.

[Nkotok]

I don't know what to think of the output size option in BD RB as it always gives me a different size at the end. So when I choose BD25, I only remotely can hope that it will be close enough and will fit on a BD25 (as I mentioned earlier all that when I check Keep HD Audio option).

So I started using another way to get the size right with higher success rate.

I use TSmuxer and rip HD Audio from the main movie. Then I look at the size of the audio track I got. Then I deduct this size from the size of BD-R and put the result size into Custom Size option in BD Rebuilder. Then I reencode the movie only in BD RB without audio. At the end I put the reencoded video and audio from earlier into TSmuxer again and mux them together and build blu-ray structure.

So far it seems to be working better than to just rely on BD Rebuilder alone.

[turbojet]

You can use goBD (http://212.36.7.36/sub/new/goBD-tool.exe) on the index.bdmv of the output

To solve it from happening with future encodes done with 0.20.08 enable strict AVCHD in options.

The Full disk of The Orphanage is only about 18 gig, you can just back up straight to BD 25.

Does goBD allow menus with the PS3?

[jdobbs]

Sorry for the slow fixes and updates. My real job is killing me. I've posted a new version on the first page of this thread. Changes:
- Fixed a bug in which a "STOP" statement (meant for
testing) was left enabled in v0.20.08 and could be
encountered randomly.
- Corrected an error in which a value larger than
2000 for MIN_M2TS_SIZE could cause a failure in
attempting to copy files.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

Full backup you mean? If so first generation EU PS3's are confirmed to work, don't know about other generations.

I've checked a newer US PS3 without luck.

Thanks
I have a newer US Ps3 and it tries to play it but then states "cant play video", or something.

I think its a problem with the Rebuilder output though because PowerDVD wont play the first title either. It just sits there and crashes if I try to skip to next title.

Any input jdobbs?

I am French and my English is very bad but I would like to thank you for BD-Rebuilder and updates it as you do on your spare time in addition to your work.

If you want to make a pro version no problem for me because I think all work deserves pay; As long as you can pay by Paypal ...

Again thank you for this excellent software.

I got an error, 2203 at the end when it was rebuilding the files. the program closed, and I cannot resume the job. I have all of the files in the workfiles directory, and need to find a way to rebuild them.

Great work jdobbs, haveing more success with every version, not sure if this was a bug or conflict, Shoot Em Up, came out perfect when I left all boxs unchecked in General Encodeing Options and removed from my system Dvd Blaster and Roxio, not sure if there may have been a conflict with there codecs or drivers when I tried this movie before I had only checked Do not convert DTS to AC3 with no success, this try only had 1 minor problem when it reached the last sector for reencodeing, the microsoft x264 banner looking to solve problem popped up, once it closed it automatically retried reencodeing with complete success to BD25 on Vista OS

[Nkotok]

Does BD RB leave original chapter marks in Movie Mode only up 60 minute mark or maybe I am confusing it with the latest TSmuxer that for some reason in Custom chapter list only gives chapter until 60 minutes?

[Capsbackup]

Does BD RB leave original chapter marks in Movie Mode only up 60 minute mark?

BD-RB keeps all the original chapters for the entire movie, regardless of length.

[Nkotok]

BD-RB keeps all the original chapters for the entire movie, regardless of length.

Cool, then it must be TSmuxer. ANybody knows why the latest TSmuxer does not go beyond 60 minutes in custom chapters?

[Nkotok]

Also, I still try to figure out: do I need to check "stricter AVCHD compliance" option if I make a Movie only reencode for BD25 and play on a standalone Panny? Thanks in advance.

[hoju3508]

It does. Just replace whatever is in the box with your chapters. I just did it for Da Vinci Code (~3 hrs) with a lot of chapters.

[Wolfe999]

I'm posting here without knowing if it's a bug or not. If it's not, my apologies in advance.

This week I got my new PC, just bought to work only with BD-Rebuilder, I will use it for nothing else. Some generic specs: i7 920 - Asus mobo - 6 GB RAM - 512 MB dedicated graphics - LG Blu Ray burner - 2 HDD 500MB each & Windows7 RC 7100 x64. It has no problem at all ripping BluRays to the HDD.

The "Problem" is: when I load the original of HULK in the LG burner, PowerDVD freezes whenever I try to play it; it doesn't either accept images mounted on VirtualCloneDrive, but MediaPlayerClassic Home Cinema plays the movie very smoothly. However, after doing the movie with BD-Rebuilder (always "movie only" plus 2 languages & 2 subtitles) and burn it to DVD, MPC HC plays it in a very shaky and jumpy way, BUT Power DVD plays it beautifully :?:. I did the movie several times changing settings in BD-Rebuilder and always got the same results. As I have no standalone playear, I only can test it through the PC.

I'd really appreciate if somebody could shed a light on this.

Thanx and regards :)

For the powerDVD not playing original do you have the latest powerDVD build installed?

As for the MPC-HC issue a quick fix is setting MKV_INTERMEDIATE=1 in BDREBUILDER.INI

It's not really a BD-Rebuilder bug but it could easily be worked around with BD-Rebuilder. But it's an MPC-HC bug that they don't seem to care at all about. It's also reported to be a bug in Arcsoft TMT2/TME.

Which DVD did you burn it onto? DVD5, DVD9. Or maybe even BD25?

I used BD RB for BD25 reencodes and got several results that came out jumpy (or shaky if you will) whehn watched on a standalone BD player and lcd.
I think people will not be able to help you here more than just say that BD RB is in beta and is being worked on.

Taking this into consideration, maybe Wolfe999"s problem is only with MPC-HC. But mine is still with BD RB's encodes. As I watch all the results on a standalone player. Some reencodes do seem jumpy.

BUG....maybe.

Just did "300" again since this version should be able to do it properly. However in the final output folder there is 1 file less than in the original.

Had a look through and it is an MPLS. In the original playlists folder in the "BACKUP" folder than are 26 MPLS starting from 00000.mpls. Once processed by BDRB there are 25 MPLS in this folder starting with 00001.mpls.

This is only in the "BACKUP" (BDMV\BACKUP\PLAYLIST), the actual "PLAYLIST" folder in (BDMV\PLAYLIST) has 26 MPLS files present...

Just wanted to report it as it seems incorrect to me...

Could you let us know?

Thanks.

[turbojet]

Also, I still try to figure out: do I need to check "stricter AVCHD compliance" option if I make a Movie only reencode for BD25 and play on a standalone Panny? Thanks in advance.

Theoretically both should work on Panasonics but strict AVCHD enabled will not work on powerDVD/winDVD and 1-2 samsung players. w/o strict AVCHD it should work on all but not very well tested. The most tested and proven output can be produced by replacing tsmuxer.exe with 1.10.6 and enabling strict AVCHD.

Taking this into consideration, maybe Wolfe999"s problem is only with MPC-HC. But mine is still with BD RB's encodes. As I watch all the results on a standalone player. Some reencodes do seem jumpy.

I haven't seen this reported before and in that case I'd suspect a bad burn or weak laser.

Thank you for the explanation and the solution. I will change the ini right now. But I'll report later as now I'm ripping Bullit's HD DVD as I want to try the guide by furiousflea.

About Power DVD, I use v7 (with the latest patch) because I've been told it's the last one that accepts HD DVD and because it came with my BluRay burner.

Which DVD did you burn it onto? DVD5, DVD9. Or maybe even BD25?

The first time I did the movie as a BD9, and my plan is doing it always that size, but as I don't have rewritable DVD DLs and didn't want to take the risk of losing several that way, I redid the movie to BD5 (with excellent results, BTW) and burnt it to a DVD5.

Frankly, I'm greatly pleased and grateful for the help I'm already getting here, being an absolute noob on this matter.

Regards :)

but strict AVCHD enabled will not work on powerDVD/winDVD

It's strange. Because following your advise in another thread, I enabled strict AVCHD, and after burning it to DVD5, that's when PowerDVD played it smoothly.

The inconsistencies are because the TSMuxer included with BD-RB produces different output then the newest TSMuxer. Also many standalone players can play different outputs on BD then they can on DVD. I know it's confusing and can be a headache at times.

Is Tsmuxer built into Bd RB? IF so, what version of TSmuxer is in the latest Bd RB?
Sorry if it is a silly question.
It is just you said to use the latest Tsmuxer and enabe strict AVCHD.

No BD_Rebuilder\tools\tsmuxer.exe is called from BD-RB, in the current version it's 1.10.1. You can check version by running tsmuxer.exe from command line.

[GaPony]

I'm pretty sure its simply a case of him using the latest version with which he tested his latest build of BDRebuilder. He has kept updating TSMuxer with new versions, but can't possibly stay current with the developers of TSMuxer, since they seem to update every other day.

[Wolfe999]

The problem continues after changing the ini line suggested by turbojet. I frankly can't understand it. I will summarize it:

- Power DVD freezes with original BD & MPC-HC plays it but doesn't give whole access to languages, subtitles & menu.
- Once ripped to HDD, PowerDVD says something (it's a translation) "format not recognized or not BD compatible" and MPC-HC plays it smoothly.
- Once done by BD-Rebuilder and converted to iso and mounted on virtual drive, PowerDVD still doesn't recognize it and MPC-HC plays it very shakily.
- But once burnt (I just burnt HULK to a DVD-DL), PowerDVD plays it without a glitch and with full access to both languages and subtitles.

I frankly don't understand a thing. I just hope I'm not burning coasters, as I'm planning on buying the LG B370 mentioned by Turbojet (loved the reviews) in 2 weeks approximately. Meanwhile, I only have the PC burner/player.

Regards :)

Aside from this and hoping everything is OK, the quality is just awesome!

I would suggest you take a few of your discs you have created to a local store that carrys the player that you want to purchase, and perhaps some other players, and test them for compatibility before you purchase. This could prove valuable that you are making the proper choice for your backups.

[turbojet]

The problem continues after changing the ini line suggested by turbojet. I frankly can't understand it. I will summarize it:

I will try to make it as to the point as I can but it may just really confuse you.

- Power DVD freezes with original BD & MPC-HC plays it but doesn't give whole access to languages, subtitles & menu.

No clue why powerDVD isn't playing it well.

- Once ripped to HDD, PowerDVD says something (it's a translation) "format not recognized or not BD compatible" and MPC-HC plays it smoothly.

For powerDVD to play from HDD it can only have these folders BDMV\BACKUP+CLIPINF+PLAYLIST+STREAM and it will only play AC3 audio.

- Once done by BD-Rebuilder and converted to iso and mounted on virtual drive, PowerDVD still doesn't recognize it and MPC-HC plays it very shakily.

For PowerDVD to play it from iso it needs these directories: BDMV\AUXDATA+BACKUP+BDJO+CLIPINF+JAR+META+PLAYLIST+STREAM
and CERTIFICATE Using TSmuxer 1.10.6 and checking enable strict AVCHD output for movie only outputs this. If you are doing full backup you need to make empty directories if any are missing.

With the MPC-HC issue if you look in BD-RB WORKFILES is there an .mkv or a .264 file? If it's mkv the only thing I can suspect is the decoder used. If it's .264 recheck MKV_INTERMEDIATE=1 in the ini, you might have to restart BD-RB after changing it.

- But once burnt (I just burnt HULK to a DVD-DL), PowerDVD plays it without a glitch and with full access to both languages and subtitles.

for PowerDVD to play from DVD\BD it only needs these folders: BDMV\CLIPINF+PLAYLIST+STREAM but it can have other folders as well and can play all types of audio.

I frankly don't understand a thing. I just hope I'm not burning coasters, as I'm planning on buying the LG B370 mentioned by Turbojet (loved the reviews) in 2 weeks approximately. Meanwhile, I only have the PC burner/player.

If you are buying a non-EU BD370 it doesn't play mkv, xvid or stream from USB or LAN which may make the reviews you read misleading.

[jdobbs]

I'm pretty sure its simply a case of him using the latest version with which he tested his latest build of BDRebuilder. He has kept updating TSMuxer with new versions, but can't possibly stay current with the developers of TSMuxer, since they seem to update every other day. I've just been too busy lately to keep up. All you have to do is replace it with the latest version if that's the choice someone might want to make.

[turbojet]

I've just been too busy lately to keep up. All you have to do is replace it with the latest version if that's the choice someone might want to make.

I don't know if you noticed it or not but latest also resizes sup files to 720p if video-width=1280,video-height=720 is in the sup line of the meta. That's one thing you don't have to mess with but it needs BD-RB's sub resize code disabled to work correctly.

Also these few changes should theoretically fix all playback issues other than PIP:
- both movie only modes use --avchd
- movie only with strict AVCHD enabled removes BDMV\AUXDATA+BDJO+JAR+META and CERTIFICATE
- full backup adds these empty directories if they don't exist: BDMV\AUXDATA+BDJO+JAR+META
- mkv is always used for elementary

There's been quite a bit of talk about playability lately. Other than that the STOP issue that seems fixed and there's some DO_ENCODING bug reports.

[Lif3styl3]

i've tried encoding of transporter 3.
Everything works fine, except the audio.

i've used the tsmuxxer version which was provided with bd rebuilder to make a movie only copy without reencoding. in this case i've got the dts-hd audio.

Using bdrebuilder it doesn't work.
I'am only getting dxolby digital 5.1 output.

Please note, the audio is calles DTS-HD XLL. I've tried another bd, where the audio was called dts-hd, there the hd data was kept.

[Wolfe999]

@Turbojet: Thanx for your explanation, I will do as you say & see the results. About the LG, it's from the EU and also the reviews I read :)

@Capsbackup: of course my intention was to goto the store with several BD9s done by me and try them with the player I'd buy. Anyway, thanx for reminding it to me :)

As I don't want to highjack this thread and seeing that most probably my problems are software produced and having had never a error from BD-Rebuilder, during the "only movie" I've done till now its work during the process has been perfect. Don't know, as its not my intention of doing ever so, what could happen with a "full backup".

So, my gratitude to everybody and congrats JDobbs for making another program that makes such a process so simple.

regards :)

[sesko]

Frst thanks for this great program.

I have one question. I heard that the best settings for x264 in backuping to BDR-25 GB are:
-A minimum of 3 ref frames and subme 7 must be used for encoding
-The encoding process must respect Level 4.1, meaning that 5 ref frames can't be used

So can somebody please tell me where can I see this settings in BD rebuilder or are settings in BD rebuilder set by deafult like this?

Thank you for your answers

Kind regards

[Sharc]

You can for example see the settings by opening the Lastcmd.txt file which you find in the BD Rebuilder program directory. BD Rebuilder sets these parameters by default to ensure compliance with the blu-ray spec. You should not change these unless you know what you are doing.

[DMagic1]

Tried my title again and still PowerDVD wont play it. It recognizes the disc and what movie it is but fails when it tries to play. PS3 also states can't play video message. Original disc and backed up files to harddrive and put in image play fine with PowerDVD.

This a full backup by the way with the lastest release of BDR.
