whats about that error:

- Error in attempt to multiplex: MUX_00226.meta
- This is not an EBML file (id=0/440786851
[17:54:09] - Failed to build structure, aborted

i've rebuild 1 BD and no errors appears, but after the 2st one, allways appears that error :(

Just checked Madagscar 2 with had PiP and DD+. Done it to both bd-25 and bd-9. In both case the audio is warbley and whatever you do the audio it plays with the movie is 192kbps, which is the DD+ track. According to TSmuxer the others are there. The PiP does work and you can just about figure out that the part of the audio is in sync with the PiP window.

As an aside, the bd-9, when played on a Sony 550 still gives no audio at all, or access to the PiP. Does it play the 192Kbs track even when the PiP isn't on? Is it definitely the PiP audio track?

I've done all 6 discs Region B without a problem but my file structures looks different - also why are the files in a random order - it usually starts at the lowest id and works through. Perhaps there are one disc editions that you are doing and there's something quirky about them. He probably has "quick encode for extras" selected. It then goes from smallest to largest.

Yes, secondary audio should be numbered 0x1A00 - 0x1A1F. But TSMUXER doesn't have the ability to mux using that PID. I could change it, but I'd have to scan and change the associated PID in every packet of the M2TS file -- I can and originally planned to do that, but it is a real pain, and it doesn't seem to make a difference. It would also add 20 minutes (or longer) to the backup process...

I will test this. To bad the usage of a hex editor is not suitable for this, because of the 16 Bit for PID there are actually the 3 MSB used for flags. They seem not setted by TSMuxer, but who knows.

Where else would I need to change the PID of the secondary video stream and audio streams? Only in the clpi file? I took a look there, do I need to replace all occurences in the clpi file?

Bye

Does it play the 192Kbs track even when the PiP isn't on? Is it definitely the PiP audio track?

Yes the same track plays regardless of whether the PiP is on or not. For the bd-9 (the only copy I still have left) in the pre menu it has dd 640, and the menu is then dd224. When the movie is selected it's dd192 and you hear the movie and voice over merged together and very distorted. There are nine english languages shown in TMT3 (more than the original movie) and all are mixes, plus a secondary audio which doesn't seem to make a difference whether it's on or off. When PiP is switched on and you can see the faces you can just about sync the voice-over with the lips movement.

According to TSMuxer there are two video tracks and three audio (ac3 640 6C, ac3 224 2c and e-ac3 dd+ 192 2c)

The original has (True HD 6c, spa, spa, eng 224 2c, ita, por, por, deu, tur, then the PGS and finally E-AC3 DD+ 192 2c)

hey, guys....

So I ran into an "error in attempt to multiplex" error last night....searching this thread thoroughly before posting, I see that this particular question very rarely gets answered, but I DID see that the next logical step is to try and perform the function from the command line, so I did. Here's what came up:

Decoding H264 stream (track 1): Profile: High@4.1 Resolution: 1920:1080p Frame
rate: 23.976
H.264 stream does not contain fps field. Muxing fps=23.976
0.0% complete
H264 bitstream changed: insert nal unit delimiters
H264 bitstream changed: insert pict timing and buffering period SEI units
Decoding AC3 stream (track 2): Bitrate: 640Kbps Sample Rate: 48KHz Channels: 6
Decoding AC3 stream (track 3): Bitrate: 192Kbps Sample Rate: 48KHz Channels: 2
Decoding PGS stream (track 4): Resolution: 1920:1080 Frame rate: 23.976
H264 bitstream changed: insert SPS/PPS units
18.2% complete
Matroska parser: read error at pos 1063256064

Any idea what's going wrong???

OK...so I get that nobody ever answers the "error in attempt to multiplex" questions....but can I ask why? Last person to actually get an answer to this question (back in February I might add) was told to run tsmuxer manually on the file. I did that in hopes of bettering my chances for an answer, but to no avail.

Not trying to stir the pot....just wondering if there's some logical reason why this question never gets answered here....

Anybody?

ByeYou could use a hex editor, but you'd have to search through 130 million packets and change where necessary on a 25GB MT2S. :) If you could do two every minute you could finish in slightly over 123 years. I'll put in an option that will do it (it'll probably take 20-30 minutes with the computer). But I don't think it will make a difference.

Anybody? Because when I see a read error -- it is an indicator of a bad rip. It could be caused by a hundred things -- including the possiblity of hardware error, ripping software error, bad codecs, or even bad configuration. There's nothing I can do about that -- and in every one of those posts you mentioned I'll bet there is a corresponding post from someone that says "I did that exact same disc with no issues".

I can't fix something unless there is some consistency.

Hello jdobbs,

Your program is very well designed! But we will have the opportunity to translate this program in the near future because many do not use your program because he does not understand. Do not make the same mistake with DVD Rebuilder. All communities expect a possibility of translation, it is still not too late to develop the multilanguage your program.

Thank you in advance to take this message because your program is really great


Bonjour jdobbs,

Votre programme est très bien conçu ! Mais auront nous la possibilité de traduire ce programme dans un futur proche, car beaucoup n'utilise pas votre programme car il ne le comprennent pas. Ne faite pas la même erreur que avec dvd rebuilder. Toute les communautés attendais une possibilité de traduction, il n'est pas encore trop tard pour développé le multilanguage de votre programme.

Je vous remercie par avance de tenir compte de ce message, car votre programme est vraiment génial

for some reason the frames don't match up : 042710 / 042717 i have cross checked this and it is the same on all atempts i have made
i have now used three different 2-disc editions of potc-dmc and get the same result with only the main feature disc the bonus disc backup no problem
so i'm confussed as to why this is happening
i have used every version of bd going back to bd v.2009 and i'm only having trouble with potc curse and potc dmc

Looks like your main movie m2ts is corrupted.

@By-Tor

Whe BD Rebuilder fails in an encode, I need to see what is causing the failure in X264.

In the BD Rebuilder folder there is a file called LASTCMD.TXT. It contains the last X264 command line executed. Open that file and cut the command to the clipboard. Then open a command windows (CMD.EXE) and paste the command. When it runs you should be able to see an error message from X264 when it fails. If you can report that it may help find a solution.

Just thought I'd let you know, there's an issue when trying to encode on Dual Nehalem systems. All works fine unless you have field based VC-1.
If you try to encode field based VC-1 it doesn't like having the hyper-threading on. If you turn off hyper-threading and let the system just see the physical cores then it encodes them fine on high quality, but if you turn it on then it just fails to encode those files, sometimes it'll do the first pass but never the second(it works if you set it to BD-25 and fast encode for BD25)
I suspect it's to do with the number of cores as it has no issue with single i7 systems

If you can try it from the command line (using the command in LASTCMD.TXT), see what happens if you remove the "--thread-input" parameter.

The "ultrafast" mode definitely sets bframes to "0" -- that's why it shows as baseline. I thought about adding "--bframes 3" to the command line to make it more consistent, but the real purpose of that setting is speed -- and in testing it this morning I found that it is 40% faster without the bframes.

If I start getting reports that the quality isn't good enough even on BD-25, I'll put the bframes back in.

Quality with High Speed, One Pass Encode and Keep HD Audio for both Full and Only Movie is really great and now so much faster. You got my vote to keep it always going faster.

no ideas about my error message? :( Try removing AVISYNTH, HAALI, and BD-RB. Then reinstall using the versions linked in the first post of this thread.

Hmmm... it might be because it is reading from an MKV on those, while all the other encodes are reading from an M2TS. What error do you get if you run it from a command line?

If you can try it from the command line (using the command in LASTCMD.TXT), see what happens if you remove the "--thread-input" parameter.

Will give it a go on Monday when I'm back at the machine

Try removing AVISYNTH, HAALI, and BD-RB. Then reinstall using the versions linked in the first post of this thread. Was there any change between BD-RBV02603 and BD-RBV02701? I just completed a fresh install of OS and all the linked files a few days ago.

On 04-AUG-2009 all files were downloaded, seemed to work flawlessly.

Since the fresh System install, then did you do as jdobbs suggested, as that is the usual fix? Reports that some always reinstall the necessary components with every BD-RB update and with like programs to reassure having no problems.

if i select keep lpcm tracks, and disable encoding of 448 ac3 audio, THEN the error appears...

now ive enabled ac3 encoding @448 and now it works fine

He didn't answer because it's not a bug report but a feature request. I'm sure jdobbs is well aware that english isn't the only language in the world but may I ask if you're aware if the christian bible was translated to different languages before it was written?

The influx of 1-5 post people in this thread in desperation of pirating blurays is rather amusing.

The influx of 1-5 post people in this thread in desperation of pirating blurays is rather amusing. Exactly. Right now I'm more interested in making it work (e.g. PiP) than making it work in Latin... but things come to those who wait.

BTW, I started a thread long ago for DVD-RB in which I provided commands and asked people to translate for me -- I got one response. It is apparently not important enough to others to spend 20 minutes translating -- so it certainly isn't important enough for me to spend hours implementing.

Can someone shed more light on what the differences are behind the scene using Encoder Settings (A) High Quality, (B) Highest and (C) High-Speed Option for a BD-50 to BD-25 backup? I was trying to test these options to see if there is any difference and moreover any quality degradation between them. I'm unclear what the High-Speed Option really does that can't be done with High Quality and changing a few settings in Setup no to process the audio files.

If you can try it from the command line (using the command in LASTCMD.TXT), see what happens if you remove the "--thread-input" parameter.

If I run the last command line I get '2nd pass has more frames than first pass (107070 vs 75)' with or without the '--thread-input' line, but if I turn off the hyper-threading in the BIOS it works fine

I hope a translation will be possible, the system. Ini file is very simple to translate.

DVD-RB we asked long ago the response has more than 1 year I am sorry but people had already migrated elsewhere for non-English speaking country.

Thank you for your reply and waits so this possibility

Can someone shed more light on what the differences are behind the scene using Encoder Settings (A) High Quality, (B) Highest and (C) High-Speed Option for a BD-50 to BD-25 backup? I was trying to test these options to see if there is any difference and moreover any quality degradation between them. I'm unclear what the High-Speed Option really does that can't be done with High Quality and changing a few settings in Setup no to process the audio files. As the quality setting gets higher, more X264 quality-enhancing features are used. As these features are added, the encode speed slows down.

BD-RB begins with a set of consistent parameters that are always there for Blu-ray compliance (--keyint, --min-keyint, vbv-maxrate, vbv-bufsize, etc.). Then with each step up in the quality selection, it adds X264 features. The impact is that with each of these features the quality will improve at a given bitrate, while the extra processing slows down the encode. Why use them? As bitrate drops (such as when encoding to BD-5/9), the quality is difficult to retain, so you have to use these tools to keep the movie at a level where it is crisp, clear, and watchable.

You can get an idea of the features of X264 at this site (http://mewiki.project357.com/wiki/X264_Settings). Pay particular attention to the section on PRESET -- which is what BD-RB uses since it was implement a few (x264) releases ago. It will also tell you what "tools" are employed for each of the settings below.

High Speed (BD-25) uses the "ultrafast" preset -- note that it uses only the very basic levels of AVC. It doesn't use CABAC, Trellis, 8x8dct -- pretty basic. As a result it runs as fast as X264 can go. On a BD-25 the bitrate for a given project is about 5x higher than a BD-5. So typically this setting is ok.

Good (Faster) = " --preset veryfast"
Better (Fast) = " --preset fast"
High Quality (Default) = " --preset medium"
Highest (Very Slow) = " --preset slow --ref 4 --b-adapt 1"

Note: The "--ref 4 --b-adapt" is added because by default the "--slow" setting sets "ref" to "5", but Blu-ray only permits a value of "4" or less for 1080p. "--b-adapt 1" is added to override the default value of "--b-adapt 2" -- because it really, really slows down the encode and I just don't see a corresponding improvement.

For people who don't care about time, there is also another "hidden" quality level. You can set it in the INI file:

ENCODE_QUALITY=4

Extreme Quality (Extremely Slow) = " --preset slower --ref 4 --b-adapt 1"

There are always new things being added to X264, it's a very active project. As they are added, they are implemented in BD-RB. The newest thing (x264 r1198) is "Macroblock Tree Rate Control" which can make some pretty dramatic quality differences.

If I run the last command line I get '2nd pass has more frames than first pass (107070 vs 75)' with or without the '--thread-input' line, but if I turn off the hyper-threading in the BIOS it works fine That just means the second pass couldn't be done becuase the first pass crashed at 75 frames. Try running both the first and second passes without "--thread-input" set (just change where it says "--pass 2" to "--pass 1").

Even though it took nearly an hour to do the first pass and works with hyper-threading switched off?

I think I may have found a bug in BD Rebuilder v0.27.01 (beta).

Windows 7 (64-bit).... if I open the Setup form and enable [x] Remove WORKFILES after rebuild, then press Save Changes which should save the form options to disk and close the form. If I reopen the form that option is disabled [ ] Remove WORKFILES after rebuild.

Is this the expected behavior of the product or is there something resetting the GUI each time it's opened?

The final data size output is 11.2 GB. The same settings were run on SLING BLADE and TAKEN which yielded the same results.

I'm attempting to test and see if the video encode options affect any of the audio options.

What I'm not clear about is why is the final size about half of 25 GB for all three Blu-ray DVD's?

The same job was submitted using the High-Speed encoding option and the final file size was just under 25 GB which one would expect.
