when chosing which box to check when wanting to retain Dolby 5.1 sound track of the movie which box should be chosen of the 5 options that are listed - yes I am a newbie - thanks for a response

I assume you are talking about BD Rebuilder. First you have to be clear what you mean by "Dolby 5.1" -- that could mean the 640Kbs core of an HD audio source, a complete Dolby HD audio source, or a DTS HD source converted to 640Kbs or 448Kbs Dolby. The settings from the options are what determine which of these you're addressing.

WOW - guess i'm so ignorant and thought there was a simple explaination to my question - I have no idea of what source because if watching the dvd and in movies setup menu it might give me a choice of 5.1 or DTS and usually will watch (listen) to is what the initial setting is - and when going into rebuilder settings I don't know which one to check - if I was able to copy all of the disc I would have all the tracks and could chose from the menu but just copying the movie without all the extras due to space on a BD-R 25gb disc guess I cannot do - guess a Dolby HD audio (if that's surround sound) is what I want - is this correct

What I would recommend is to leave all the settings at the default. That way any 5.1 or 7.1 track would end up being Dolby 5.1 at 640Kbs in your output (which is very good sound) and DD 2.0 would remain 2.0 at 224Kbs.

Just unzip a fresh download, delete the old one and start BD-RB again, and all will be to default. :)

Or you can just delete "BDREBUILDER.INI".
