View Full Version : Authoring UHD discs with BDRB

Hello,

I am trying to re-author a 4K UHD disc with additional audio tracks / subtitles from a remuxed MKV file. However, it seems that no matter what I do, BDRB wants to re-encode the video (FORCE_NOENCODE=1 appears to have no effect). Is there a way to leave the original 4K video stream untouched? Is there an issue related to max bitrates allowed in the Blu-ray spec or something? Or is this outside of the scope of what BDRB is intended to do?

Set output size bigger than disc.

I have, the output size is set to 100GB which is much bigger than the theoretical final disc size.

It's probably because the file's content is illegal as-is. Look in the PSEUDO folder for the PINFO.INF file. You'll likely find some resizing info there.

Here are the contents of the PINFO.INF file:

[UHDFlag]
00000=1
[AudioAdjust]
00000=.TimeStretch(tempo = 23.976/24.0*100.0)
[ImportFile]
00000=C:\Storage\test\testfilm.mkv

Is that suggestive of anything relevant?
