BDRB ; can we keep several titles but not all ?

[Music Fan]

Hi, I can't find a way to keep some titles (and removing some of their subtitles and audio tracks) for a Blu-ray, like Dvd-shrink does for dvd in re-author mode.
I tried BD-RB (with Anydvd) which let the choice between complete backup and main movie backup, but I need a mix of these modes ; I need the movie and a part of the bonus.

I also tried DvdFab and even in "personnalize" mode, all titles are kept, even those unchecked ! And the DTS HD track disappeared, only the core remained while I didn't ask to remove HD tracks ! :confused:

Thus, is there a way to copy some Blu-ray titles in the same folder like dvd-shrink does ?
Otherwise, the last solution consists to copy each track in movie only mode with BD-RB but I prefer to have the titles in the same folder.

Have you looked at "blanking" in BD_RB? Look in the HIDDEN_OPTS.txt file within the BD_RB directory.

[Music Fan]

Thanks, but I don't see blanking option in this list.

[gonca]

ENABLE_TEST=N
ENABLE_BLANKING=n

Sorry, they are undocumented. Search the bug reports thread, or change logs, and you will find it.

Do you mean I have to add these lines in the file HIDDEN_OPTS.txt ?
I found this topic about the same problem ;

add these lines to your INI/Config file: ENABLE_TEST=1 and ENABLE_BLANKING=1
You can find the config file in BD Rebuilder by clicking File-->View/Edit Config file
but the guy has a problem ;
BD Rebuilder blanks out all of the titles instead of just one

Actually there is a problem : BDRB does not show all titles, even in full backup mode, thus the blanking trick won't help me (I only see titles I wanna keep, but there are a lot of little titles for menus).
I tried something else : the quick play backup mode, but instead of 3 titles, I get 5, which is better than all the titles, but does not correspond to what I asked. And Total Media Theater can't open this folder (but he can when there is only one movie copied in movie only mode).:o

Do You have these settings also?
MIN_M2TS_SIZE=0
MIN_PLAYLIST_MINS=0

I don't know, the pc I use for this is closed now, I will have a look later.
Anyway, I found a method that seems to work to gather several titles with all their languages, subtitles and chapters : with multiAVCHD, click on add video files and open the mpls files (corresponding to the titles you need) instead of m2ts files, otherwise the chapters won't be opened (even if you can extract chapters and open them as external chaps but this makes more work).
It's also better than opening the bdmv folder which doesn't allow to remove or add any title.

And you can export the project as Blu-ray or AVCHD ; AVCHD for PS3 can be read on HDD or USB key in FAT32 with Sony and Oppo standalone players, and maybe others.
For FAT32 partitions, don't forget to choose 4000 MB for media split in author, general. You won't see the cuts, thanks to the AVCHD structure (it's like 1 Go sized VOB supported by IFO files on Dvd-video).

Ok thanks, I will look at this. I guess I have to import them one by one, like I do with multiAVCHD.

If yes, here is a suggestion for BD-RB : instead of importing titles one by one, allow to import all titles (included in 1 blu-ray = 1 bdmv folder) and remove those unwanted.
It would be faster when there are more titles to keep than titles to delete.

No, you don't have to import them one by one. You can choose titles when you import. Just check/uncheck them. You can also combine discs by putting them together in a folder and importing the folder.
