BDR-Failed video encode, aborted?

[tn jim]

Can anyone comment on what might be causing the problem? AnyDVD HD is on the front end and did not indicate a problem.

you say anydvd is on the front end. Are you encoding straight from disc? Ifso try rip to hdd first. Ifnot, do you have any type of codec pack installed, ifso get rid of it. Ifnot, sounds like a corrupt rip

I am ripping to HDD. No new codec pack installed (as far as I know).

I'm also getting intermittently bad burns now (disc video freezes but audio continues on in playback) even though BDR reports a successful burn at the end, this is confirmed using two good BD players, PS3 and Oppo 83 and my PC freeze at exact same spot. Media used is Verbatim BD-R 25 GB.

My burns are occupying about half of the visible space (by eyeball) on the discs now whereas before they often occupied almost all of the visible space.

Could my LG WH12LS30 BD read/write drive be flaky?

What else could cause these intermittent problems?

Thank you!

[RobertM]

I've had this happen more than once, and it was always a bad rip. I now check my rebuilt files before burning before I commit a disc for burning.

[Ch3vr0n]

It could be the drive acting up yes. Is not a good idea to encode direct from the drive. Continuous spinning disc generates heat, which is bad in a PC, and continuous wear and tear on the drive. The combination of both our either one alone is also possible. Rip too HD is always recommended.

This is all new to me. What setup adjustments do I need to do to be sure that I am ripping to HD?

Thank you!

It's not so much a setup as just manually telling AnyDVD to do it.

AnyDVD will first scan the disc. Doesn't matter if you put the disc in first or start AnyDVD first. After scanning, right-click the AnyDVD icon in the tray at the bottom-right of the screen and select "Rip to HDD" (it is worded something like that). Now you can pick the disc as the source and select a folder where you will put the ripped files. Once the rip is complete you pick THAT folder as your source for BD-RB.

Ok, that is what I'm doing, I have been ripping to HHD all along so that is not my problem.

What else can I do or look for in an attempt diagnose my BD-Rebuilder and/orImgBurn problem(s)?

Is there an indication that my LG BD R/W drive is the problem, firmware is up to date, is there a way to test it?

Ignoring my initial thread post here it's frustrating because most often the BD-R log reports at the end of the burn process that the burn was successful and the ImgBurn completion log does not show any problems yet I am ending up with BD discs that freeze on playback and my burns only use about half of the visible available space on the disc. I am getting the exact same playback results on two different high quality players and my PC.

When I first started doing my BD-R/ImgBurn backup copies about two months ago the process was working perfectly, something has changed?


Thank you!

How do I check my rebuilt files before burning, what am I looking for there?

What causes a corrupt rip, how can you tell if a rip is corrupt?

Thank you!

[setarip_old]

@tn jim how can you tell if a rip is corrupt?Burn it to a REWRITEABLE disc and play it...

[Ch3vr0n]

or if bdrb throws an error durring encoding such as "AV buffer too large" that could be an indication from a corrupt rip

[laserfan]

ImgBurn completion log does not show any problems yet I am ending up with BD discs that freeze on playback and my burns only use about half of the visible available space on the disc. I am getting the exact same playback results on two different high quality players and my PC.
It should be easy to check: the bytes on the hard disk before burning, and the bytes shown in ImgBurn, finally the bytes of the BDMV and CERTIFICATE folders that are actually on the burned disk i.e. ImgBurn's Log (and Info tab prior to writing) should show you the full size of your BDMV/CERT. Is it laying this down onto your disc?

It sounds like your drive might be defective but w/o details can't tell at all. Posting a complete ImgBurn log might be a good start.

[RobertM]

How do I check my rebuilt files before burning, what am I looking for there?

What I do is to simply play the resulting m2ts file (created by BD-RB) on my desktop using VLC. I check at least 3 points: near the beginning; midway; and just before the credits. I'm looking to see that I have video, audio and a good A/V synch. This process just takes a minute or so.

Occasionally I'll find that the Audio/Video synch is off. Occasionally I'll find that the video stops part-way but the audio continues. If these problems exist on the PC before burning then they'll exist on the burnt disc with no error message being displayed. As I've said before, the video freeze problem has usually been solved by re-ripping (and cleaning) the disc.

[RobertM]

What causes a corrupt rip, how can you tell if a rip is corrupt?

If you get an error message upon ripping,.. well, there you go. If you don't get an error message then you are probably 95% likely to have a good rip. But there are odd cases.

The error detection mechanism in your PC is not the same as that in a standalone player. If a standalone player finds a problem on the disc then it is designed to try to skip over the problem and continue the playback stream. Often you won't even see that a small section has been skipped. In a PC environment there is no allowance for skipping over bad parts; the copied file must be exactly correct or you would have major havoc in your system (corrupt data files, crashing executables, etc.).

Errors can and do slip by though. Normally, checksums, parity bits, file sizes, etc., will be effective in catching data errors, but if the corrupt data is wrong in just the right way then they can get past these tests. It's unusual but possible.

x264 seems to be very intolerant of these glitches. It will re-encode up to the glitch and then lose it's reference to the next frame and just stop, freezing the image. It won't necessarily throw an error message, so that is why I test each and every rebuild before burning by previewing several spots on my desktop, including making sure that the final credits are scrolling.

Completely uninstall and reinstall AVISYNTH, HAALI, and FFDSHOW. It's likely some other package has interfered with the configuration.

Can you offer some assistance with this?

[HWK]

Can you offer some assistance with this?

Did you do what Jdobbs asked in post above yours.

[jdobbs]

Most of the time when you get the popup that says "X264 stopped working" you have a system instability. If you are overclocked, you need to back it down. Another likely candidate is overheating -- in which you may need to clean your heatsink, etc.

X264 is the ultimate test of system stability, as it uses you processors to the fullest.

I should have looked more closely at the times on your original post. If it encodes for a while and then fails, system stability is the issue.

Sorry for my English

Thanks

Bad rip?

[jdobbs]

The only time I've seen that error reported is on a corrupted source.

What does "corrupted source" mean?

Can you explain please

[jdobbs]

thanks Usually a bad rip. It means TSMUXER is attempting to demux the source and it ran into "garbage" in the input.

thanksThe "bad rip" analysis was related to your first post -- which had a specific "buffer overflow" error. Why would you assume it applies to something completely different?
