...and a Kilobyte has always been 1024, and in the real world it always will be, no matter what some new-age "I can't comprehend binary" limp-dick says.

Period.Indeed and agreed :)

Both values are based on 1024 (binary system).
Just the GB and MB differ
So, why are two different values being reported? Why not show both values as MB or GB. Having to do math to convert one to the other kinda sucks.

Even though I need sleep, it is all a little clearer now. :D

It is a representation of a binary number
1024 bytes = 1 kb
etc
As for the math, not necessary.
The multiplier is 1024, so 22.95 GB is just shy of 23500 MB (numerically speaking, not size) so it should be the same.
For the compulsive types just use the 1024 multiplier to comfirm

Wrong. And the "Kibi" bullshit is nonsense made up by people who know nothing. I've been doing this for over 40 years (and have taught computer science at the collegiate level) -- and a Kilobyte has always been 1024, and in the real world it always will be, no matter what some new-age "I can't comprehend binary" limp-dick says.

Period.

You say math not necessary and then you say just use the multiplier:. :D

The point I'm trying to make, in order to make it easier and not confuse the human reader, i to use the MB number for both locations, or the GB number for both location. It is human nature to just take the 23500 MB number and turn it into 23.5 GB. That is what I did and as it turns out, that is wrong.

OK, so I'm still having problems when BDRB is converting audio tracks to AC3. Any DTS, DTS-MA, True-HD, or LPCM tracks get converted to AC3 MONO. I've never had this problem before so something has recently changed with the way the audio tracks are being converted. This happens on any disc I've tried, regardless of what the original track format is.

Ex: Converting my Bad Santa disc to BD9 Movie-only UHD-HEVC format. The disc contains a LPCM 5.1 track that I choose to convert to AC3. Everything seems to go as planned until I try to play the resulting directory in MPC-HC. MPC-HC opens the movie, but the movie will not start, it just hangs at 00:00. Log, .inf and MediaInfo below.

Running the same disc thru ClownBD or the aforementioned UsEac3to are converted correctly. I can then load the movie into BDRB and convert to UHD-HEVC from there. So something is wonky with the way BDRB is converting the tracks. Don't take my word for it, try it yourself with any disc and convert to AC3 and see what you come up with. Thanks for any suggestions...

@spotswood

Could you outline the entire process you go through. I notice from your log that the source movie is only 21.16GB. That doesn't sound large enough to be from an original BD -- so I'm assuming you are importing?

I'm guessing whatever is causing this has to be specific to your system, as I'm getting no other reports of mono output. I would expect that to be pretty noticeable.

If anyone else is seeing this issue -- please chime in.

I can't think of any significant changes recently to the audio processing. You haven't replaced any of the included utilities with other versions?

Converting my Bad Santa disc to BD9 Movie-only UHD-HEVC format. The disc contains a LPCM 5.1 track that I choose to convert to AC3. Everything seems to go as planned until I try to play the resulting directory in MPC-HC or PowerDVD. Each of the programs try to play the movie, but the movie will not start, it just hangs at 00:00. Could it be possible the player doesn't allow UHD on BD-9 (that wouldn't be uncommon)?

The log you mention is from a Movie-only encode, which is why the size is smaller. Here's the log from a Movie & Menus job I just did to see if it was mode related. Same thing happens, the LPCM track is converted to AC3 Mono.

I'm guessing whatever is causing this has to be specific to your system, as I'm getting no other reports of mono output. I would expect that to be pretty noticeable.

If anyone else is seeing this issue -- please chime in.Yes, if anyone can, please try reencoding a disc (any disc) with a lossless track to AC3 and see what happens? This has been happening recently so I'm interested to see if anyone else gets the same results.

I can't think of any significant changes recently to the audio processing. You haven't replaced any of the included utilities with other versions?No versions replaced. In fact I unzipped a fresh v0.61.22 of BDRB and started anew. As previously mentioned, running the same disc .iso thru ClownBD or UsEac3to programs complete with the LPCM track being correctly converted to 5.1 AC3@640.

Could it be possible the player doesn't allow UHD on BD-9 (that wouldn't be uncommon)?MPC-HC handles UHD just fine. I should clarify that I'm not burning the finished output to disc, but playing from the finished folder in MPC-HC. I misspoke about PowerDVD, my v12 (I know it's old) will not play UHD-HEVC.

Wrong. And the "Kibi" bullshit is nonsense made up by people who know nothing. I've been doing this for over 40 years (and have taught computer science at the collegiate level) -- and a Kilobyte has always been 1024, and in the real world it always will be, no matter what some new-age "I can't comprehend binary" limp-dick says.

Period.
Thank you for saying what I was thinking.

I, too, have experienced some randomness with EC3 (E-AC3) 5.1 audio. I have seen BDRB do all of these things depending on the source material (and without changing any BDRB settings between different titles):
- keep the original audio (I think!)
- re-encode to AC3 5.1
- misinterpret the number of channels down to either 1 (mono) or 2 and re-encode to AC3 accordingly.

I can't work out why some succeed with original audio and why some need re-encoding. But I'm not too bothered either way. It's the wholly incorrect conversions that are of concern. Interestingly any such title, if placed into tsMuXer also reports an incorrect number of channels. However Handbrake sees the right channel format and will re-encode audio to DD5.1. Sadly, handbrake has to encode video alongside so it does take a while. I'm guessing that the EC-3 encode is in some way corrupted and isn't "seen" by some (but not all) apps as having the actual channel setup. MediaInfo also reports them correctly.

So what I have done with these titles - and this appears to work - is
1: Re-encode using Handbrake, with video settings at their lowest quality, fastest (etc etc) values for best speed with no concern for picture quality at all.
2: tsMuxer to place the Handbrake soundtrack (only) against the source video (only) discarding the EC3 audio and poor quality video from Handbrake.
3: and then put that into BDRB to get a finished product.

For example, using one source

MediaInfo:

Handbrake sees it like this (see attachment 2.gif) and will generate a correct AC3 DD 5.1 audo track from it.

Hello all... hope everyone had a good holiday weekend. Has anyone tried to reencode a BD with a lossless track (True-HD/Atmos, DTS-MA etc.) to AC3? What were your findings?

I tried it again with my The Good, The Bad and The Ugly BD that has a DTS-MA track. Way overkill for this title, so again I set up BDRB to reencode the DTS-MA track to AC3. Same result, the DTS-MA track is converted to AC3 Mono. @jdobbs... if you need any other info than the logs below, let me know. I have saved the workfiles folder from this job...

Regarding the above... I can get what I want by running the disc through ClownBD first, which correctly converts the DTS-MA track to AC3 5.1@640, and then load the resulting BD folder output into BDRB. From there I convert to UHD-HEVC format and the finished output plays perfectly in MPC-HC and/or Kodi with both the audio and video in sync.

I don't mind the extra step, I just can't figure out why BDRB is having problems with the audio conversion when it never had that problem before. Thanks again for any help, suggestions or recommendations.

Greetings all,

I'd like to see if anyone else has seen similar.

For me, 61.22 was a regression. I think it might have to do with the way nvencc was built, if it was changed. The last build, 61.21, I was able to re-encode using my GPU, at least the utilization rate was quite high for both the GPU and the CPU.

I thought it is likely to be nvencc, because I have another software I use and recently they decided to no longer build for win8.1 on an update. In their changelog, they decided to only build for the latest on Win10, I feel like something similar may be happening with nvencc in bdrb which is frustrating. Yes, 8.1 is older, but I built this as a HTPC and last year bought this graphics card with the intent to encode many of the discs from my library, and not have it rely on my mediocre i5. I just bought all 6 seasons of The Clone Wars, but so far it has been a disaster trying to get them re-encoded correctly.

So here is some of the info,

[20:56:09] - Failed video encode, aborted



I did some searching and reading on here, and I found some folks troubleshooting. When I run the last command manually, many times I get this error:


copyHtoD: failed to allocate memory: cudaErrorUnsupportedPtxVersion



A couple of times I've gotten a different error, but that error didn't make sense so I could have been messing with the settings trying to get it to work.


Finally, if any of you brilliant minds can see any issues with my encode settings on 61.21? Even though it completed the encode, there were A LOT of artifacts on the encode. Previously, I've been using just the CPU for encoding, not the nvencc/GPU. I don't recall getting such poor quality, but I'm guessing that this probably has to do with my settings.

Thank you everyone for any assistance and for also realizing that I'm highly unlikely to upgrade to Win10.

Hello all... hope everyone had a good holiday weekend. Has anyone tried to reencode a BD with a lossless track (True-HD/Atmos, DTS-MA etc.) to AC3? What were your findings?

Is there a list of titles with such tracks?
I could try, if I own one...

@cartman0208

So it looks like it converted properly for you, right?

Correct, and the output looks pretty normal to me

BD Rebuilder fails when using DGIndexNV + x264 + Blank Extras.

For some reason is calling FRIMSOURCE instead of DGIndexNV when encoding small files, my PC is AMD so... it fails.

@cartman0208

So it looks like it converted properly for you, right?

Correct, and the output looks pretty normal to me

Just checked my "Good, Bad and Ugly" - I've definitely got 6 audio channels AC3Can you post logs, .inf and MediaInfo of the job you did? If it came out correctly then I don't know what to tell you guys. I've tried re-downloading v0.61.22 of BDRB and start over from scratch. I've checked and re-checked my settings over and over. I've posted logs confirming those settings. Every disc I try with a Lossless track gets converted to AC3 Mono. I'm at a loss other than wiping my drive and installing a fresh Windows 10, although other programs performing the same task work perfectly. :confused:

As I mentioned before, I can run my Lossless discs I want to convert through other programs first (which I know is not recommended) but it works just fine and they play perfectly in MPC-HC and/or Kodi. So I'll just take the extra step to convert them first before processing in BDRB until the gremlins decide to stop fu**ing with me. Thanks for the replies...

----------------------

Your example is not what I am describing. It doesn't look like you are re-encoding the Atmos track but keeping the CORE AC3 track as shown above in BOLD which does not need to be re-encoded. The log should show that the Atmos track is being re-encoded as in my log below. Please run the job again and set up BDRB to re-encode the Atmos track to AC3 and post the results. Thanks for your help.

Just checked my "Good, Bad and Ugly" - I've definitely got 6 audio channels AC3 Can you also post the relevant logs, .inf and MediaInfo from your GB&U job? Thanks for your help...

So what should the original audio track look like?
I think you did not post pre-encode mediainfo.
I can then try to find the same from my collection

Your example is not what I am describing. It doesn't look like you are re-encoding the Atmos track but keeping the CORE AC3 track as shown above in BOLD which does not need to be re-encoded. The log should show that the Atmos track is being re-encoded as in my log below.
Unless I am missing something, why would you want to re-encode to AC3 when extracting the core is the easier and better route?

I can then try to find the same from my collectionAs MrVideo mentions in his quote below, discs with TrueHD/Atmos just extract the core AC3 which is what yours did correctly, my mistake. If you have one, try a disc with a DTS-MA or LPCM track and post your results, thanks.

Unless I am missing something, why would you want to re-encode to AC3 when extracting the core is the easier and better route?You are right, my bad. I was thinking BDRB did the same thing as it does with a non-TrueHD/Atmos track, by re-encoding to AC3...

Done.
Luckily I had a small enough Bluray still on disk (despite Bruce Willis a terrible movie) so I didn't have to reencode the video.

It looks like there are two audio channels on the original. The second one says:Bit rate : 192 kb/s
Channel(s) : 1 channel
Channel layout : C
Sampling rate : 48.0 kHzAny chance that your settings (e.g. language) is telling BD-RB to keep the second (mono) one?

If you look at the pre-encode MediaInfo in my post above it shows:

BDRB is definitely re-encoding the DTS-MA track since it has the same ID #4352. The original Mono track has ID #4353 and is not included since I de-selected it. I did Atomic Blonde which doesn't have a Mono track that I'll post below...

OK, here's Atomic Blonde. I would normally keep this DTS-X 7.1 track, but am using this as an example:

So once again BDRB is re-encoding the main DTS-MA track ID #4352 to AC3 Mono, no doubt about it. I don't know what else to do. As I mentioned, I don't mind the extra step to re-encode selected titles to AC3 prior to processing with BDRB, but would rather figure out what the problem is. If anyone else can chime in with any suggestions please feel free. Thanks for any help.

You have "Do not reencode AC3" enabled ... did you try to uncheck that box?

As MrVideo mentions in his quote below, discs with TrueHD/Atmos just extract the core AC3 which is what yours did correctly, my mistake. If you have one, try a disc with a DTS-MA or LPCM track and post your results, thanks. Ok. I just did a disc with a source audio track that was DTS-HD XLL. Here is the MEDIAINFO result on the output:Audio

to the INI file. This forces BD-RB to reencode (to a volume of 1.0x the original) instead of keeping the 640Kbs core audio. - [13:20:30] Processing: VID_00003 (1 of 1)
- [13:20:31] Processing audio tracks
- Track 4352 (eng): Reencoding audio to AC3...

The bottom line is that it is doing exactly what it is supposed to do.

Now I'm going to load spotswood's INI and try it again.

jdobbs
17th July 2021, 21:00
Ok. Using spotswood's INI settings, BD-RB kept the original core audio (it didn't reencode). Using the same source as my last post, the output looks like this:Audio
Format : AC-3
Format/Info : Audio Coding 3

Next I will add AUDIO_AMPLIFY=1.0 in order to force reencoding of the audio track (I may also have to change the SETUP setting that says "Do not reencode AC3")

@spotswood

Are you sure this INI is the one you used? If so, why is your log showing a reencode while mine isn't? One other thing... have you tried using MEDIAINFO on the output M2TS instead of the MPLS, just to see if it reports something different (it doesn't on mine)?

[EDIT]

Ok. Now I did it with AUDIO_AMPLIFY set and "Do not reencode AC3" unchecked:Audio

Ok. Using spotswood's INI settings, BD-RB kept the original core audio (it didn't reencode).

@spotswood

Are you sure this INI is the one you used? If so, why is your log showing a reencode while mine isn't?Yes, I'm sure. I'm guessing in your second example BDRB is just pulling the core AC3 track from the TrueHD track, no reencode needed. In your first example the disc has a DTS-MA track that requires reencoding to AC3.

Anyway, I'VE FIXED THE PROBLEM! I mentioned before that I had started over and re-downloaded and unzipped a fresh v0.61.22 of BDRB leaving everything stock w/o adding any hidden options etc. but the same problem persisted.

Since running the System Settings Check showed everything to be fine, I didn't think to reinstall the helper programs, namely AviSynth. So after reinstalling v2.60 and trying again, voila! The lossless tracks are properly being reencoded to AC3 5.1@640 like they're supposed to. Something must have corrupted my AviSynth installation, I don't know, but after reinstalling it everything is fine now.

What a relief! I was going crazy and really didn't want to wipe my drive and do a fresh W10 install. I apologize again for sending everyone trying to help (namely jdobbs) on a wild goose chase. I feel so stupid that I didn't think to reinstall everything (troubleshooting 101). Whole carton of eggs on face. If I post with what I think is a bug in the future, just ignore me. I'll figure it out eventually...

spotswood
17th July 2021, 22:08
You have "Do not reencode AC3" enabled ... did you try to uncheck that box?Yes, with or without it didn't make a difference. This option is checked by default and I've always left it that way. It doesn't seem to make a difference either way. The only options I change depending on the job are "Do not convert DTS to AC3" (when keeping the DTS core), and "Keep HD audio for BD25 intact" (self explanatory and only for 7.1 tracks, personal preference). Thanks again for trying to help. When in doubt, reinstall everything!

Wrong. And the "Kibi" bullshit is nonsense made up by people who know nothing. I've been doing this for over 40 years (and have taught computer science at the collegiate level) -- and a Kilobyte has always been 1024, and in the real world it always will be, no matter what some new-age "I can't comprehend binary" limp-dick says.

Period.

Okay, now that the compulsive silliness is outta the way... :)

I am currently reencoding a Blu-ray that is about 31 Gigs. Since it is a bit bigger than most, I'm using Default 2 Pass with some x264 tweaks that I normally use in a case like this.

Since you, JD, had said that the difference in the x264-64.exe and the x264L-64.exe is the non 'L' is the current version or an updated version that will run better with the DirectShow frame server as opposed to the internal LAV one. So, I switched to using the DirectShow figuring I'm using the newest, fasted version of x264, right?

However, I checked my TM during the first pass, and it is showing just the x264.exe being used and NOT the x264-64.exe...??? Why? I am not currently using any Avisynth. Why is BDRB using the NON-64 version?

Thanks!

Greetings all,

I'd like to see if anyone else has seen similar.

For me, 61.22 was a regression. I think it might have to do with the way nvencc was built, if it was changed. The last build, 61.21, I was able to re-encode using my GPU, at least the utilization rate was quite high for both the GPU and the CPU.

I thought it is likely to be nvencc, because I have another software I use and recently they decided to no longer build for win8.1 on an update. In their changelog, they decided to only build for the latest on Win10, I feel like something similar may be happening with nvencc in bdrb which is frustrating. Yes, 8.1 is older, but I built this as a HTPC and last year bought this graphics card with the intent to encode many of the discs from my library, and not have it rely on my mediocre i5. I just bought all 6 seasons of The Clone Wars, but so far it has been a disaster trying to get them re-encoded correctly.

So here is some of the info,

I did some searching and reading on here, and I found some folks troubleshooting. When I run the last command manually, many times I get this error:


copyHtoD: failed to allocate memory: cudaErrorUnsupportedPtxVersion



A couple of times I've gotten a different error, but that error didn't make sense so I could have been messing with the settings trying to get it to work.


Finally, if any of you brilliant minds can see any issues with my encode settings on 61.21? Even though it completed the encode, there were A LOT of artifacts on the encode. Previously, I've been using just the CPU for encoding, not the nvencc/GPU. I don't recall getting such poor quality, but I'm guessing that this probably has to do with my settings.

Thank you everyone for any assistance and for also realizing that I'm highly unlikely to upgrade to Win10.

Well... NVENCC was updated to version 5.20 in that release, so I guess there could be some compile issue (although I haven't had any other reports of issues). In looking up the reported error, this is what I got:cudaErrorUnsupportedPtxVersion = 222

This indicates that the provided PTX was compiled with an
unsupported toolchain. The most common reason for this, is
the PTX was generated by a compiler newer than what is

There have been updates to NVENCC since then. As a test, I'd recommend user404 try downloading the newest NVENCC version from this link. (https://github.com/rigaya/NVEnc/releases/tag/5.35) But be warned, I haven't tested that release.

I don't think I understand the issue with the post.... why was it hidden, and why would it require approval?
