BD Rebuilder & Quick Play Menus

[brinkc4766]

I have tried testing the quick play functionality to no results. The menu results in the video files being appropriately added to the BDMV > STREAM folder but no menu is visible. When I mount the BDMV folder as an image and view using POWERDVD or the like, I am only getting the default quick play background, no text. Maybe I am overthinking it.

Have you configured the feature via your BDREBUIDLER.INI file? I don't use the "Quick-Play" feature anymore, but here are the related options currently in my INI file. (The "HIDDENOPTS.TXT" file defines many of the below options.)

MENU_BACKGROUND=C:\Users\Lowpro\Documents\BD_Rebuilder\Resources\BACKGROUND.PNG

MENU_ACTIVE_COLOR=WHITE
MENU_FONT=HELVETICA 55 ROMAN
MENU_FONT_BOLD=1

MENU_FORCE_QUICK=1
QUICK_PLAY_THRESHOLD=0

Also, in my post found here (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=182746) I outline how I used to create my Quick-Play menus ahead of time prior to building the Blu-ray that contains the actual video files. This allowed for quick trial and error. Once the given "Quick-Play" menu was to my liking I'd then build the full Blu-ray.

Thank you! I will certainly give it a shot this evening. I would absolutely love to be able to edit pre - existing menus just the steep learning curve of it tends to frustrate me BDedit especially.

Still only getting a backdrop with no text.

I am also having this issue when creating the ISO and then loading it into VLC to test and all I get a is a background image and nothing else. Have you solved this issue since this post? I don't want to burn a BD and then wind up with a coaster.

I got the same problem, I am only getting the default quick play background, no text. Here is what I tried so far:


Fresh Windows 11 25H2 install (in VirtualBox).
Installed Avisynth 2.60 and LAVFilters 0.65
Moved MSCOMCTL.OCX to C:\Windows\SysWOW64 and registered with: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\regsvr32.exe C:\Windows\SysWOW64\mscomctl.ocx
Opened BDRebuilder 0.62.16 as Admin
Settings, Output Options, Target Size BD-50
Settings, Setup, Audio Languages to Keep: all
removed the check marks for "Limit to one track for each language" for Audio and Subtitles
removed the check mark for "Strict AVCHD for BD-5/9 Movie-Only"
added the check mark for "Keep only BDMV/CERTIFICATE folders"
defined a working path
imported 2 mkvs that were created from BD with MakeMKV (with File, Import, Video files)
Import/Quick-Play Menu Title Editor window poped up: entered a Main Title
Importing starts ...

I tested the resulting BDMV under Z:\BDS\TEMP\IMPORTS\DONE2\ with VLC and Leawo Blu-ray Player.

New try: Closed BDRebuilder, removed all files in Z:\BDS\TEMP\, added the options mentioned in this thread to my ini (changed MENU_FONT to Arial because that is installed and changed the paths for MENU_BACKGROUND and MENU_AUDIO:

I re-did the BD creation but without success.

Why isn't this working? I understand BDRebuilder is only beta software. But isn't this an essential feature that should work somehow? Has this worked with a previous version? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the hint. But I don't get at all how this is supposed to work. I downloaded the qp_test.zip from the first post. I have 2 episodes for a first BD. So I removed the folders 3-14 and edited the titles.inf accordingly removing 3 times the lines "00003" to "00014". What strikes me as odd: Why does each menu item has its own BDMV and CERTIFICATES folder? First, I try to import these in BDRebuilder: Files, Import, BD(s) - Quick Reauthored. But no matter if I try to import each main folder with BDMV and CERTIFICATES on its own or the whole main folder with folders 01 and 02 in it and all the BDMV and CERTIFICATES folder, I get "No titles were found that meet the import parameters".
