Gotcha. Exactly, the pictures in V/C id: 7/1 are not FRAME, and the first picture is TOP_FIELD. Good. I'd looked at the code and that seemed to be the only way it could happen. As long as you have it, is there any way you could strip that cell (7/1) and send it to me? I think my handling of non-FRAME could be the source of some other issues as well -- and I just can't seem to find any non-FRAME sources to experiment with. I'll PM you.

I get this too now.. the weirdest thing is I've done a succesful backup run on my new athlon64 system so i know it works.. I grabbed the latest v38 last night and soon as encode came, BAM! Hello new error i never encountered before..

i'm working with it remotely now but it still keeps happening, i've even reinstalled cce, kinda frustrating really but im thinking because i'm remote desktop'd to my home pc, something isnt being installed properly or uninstalled properly

current plan: go home later tonight, give up on it right now since i've already wrestled with this half of last night as well, re-install everything from scratch and see wtf is going on.. and try it again on the last succesful dvdrb build of course :( -sigh-

That error means GDI+ isn't installed and should happen only on Win9x AFAIK. Get the GDI+ runtime from MS: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=bfc0b436-9015-43e2-81a3-54938b6f4614&DisplayLang=en

you're awesome! it's interesting that you mentioned this because I was thinking the recent windows critical updates may have had some effect on this thing, I'll take a look at this link, much appreciated

btw.. in case anyone didn't know -.- April 14 = doomsday for MS so update windows.. there's like 4-5-6 critical patches waiting for you :p

edit: screenshot of the error from last night btw.. I worked my way down since the error popped up fomr v38, I just worked my way down all the

[RB]

For obvious reasons, you should immediately edit your post to remove that screenshot!

[jdobbs]

Man I got here too late. Now I just have to wonder what was in the screenshot.

[jdobbs]

Do you think those gdi errors could be related to the little "folder" graphics I put on the buttons? I did it a couple of versions ago..

..maybe

I can't verify for sure until i get home since my other computer has the old-archives of dvd rebuilder, the earliest one I have on my current beast PC is v31 and the last time i had a succesful backup on this beast is using v29

but hmm.. yeah i did notice those folder graphics :D just not sure why that would cause a problem, i'll work it out

DVD-RB Version:v0.38
Encoder: CCE Basic & QuEnc 0.45
EclCCE: no
Bug: Runtime Error 5 during rebuilding of first cell in VTS3 (movie: MI-2 R1 edition).

I've rebuilt this movie using both CCE Basic and QuEnc as encoders. Everything worked out just fine using CCE, but during the rebuild phase I got this run-time error. Pressing OK closed down DVD-RB so I can't paste the status panel info. But it makes me wonder, is there any way to pick up the slack? After all, two of three steps were successfully executed. Either way, I'll keep the source files a while longer.

If you look in your rebuilder.ini file (in the /D2VAVS folder) there is a "progress=" flag.

0= nothing done
1= Prepare step complete
2= Encode step complete

You might want to check out your .mpv files to make sure you didn't encounter any script or encoding errors. The ones with errors are usually small in size.

[jorel]

please:
when i download using the link
" you can get it here " ( http://forum.doom9.org/ )
in the first post of this thread i got the dvd-rbv035.zip
and not
" The latest version v0.38, 14 Apr 2004 " as posted!
it's correct?
i downloaded in 13 Apr 2004 the dvd-rbv035 version build in 12 Apr 2004!
the dvd-rbv035.zip now the link is the new 0.38 version?
:confused:

thanks in advance!
:)

i'm trying to post it at 10 minutes.the traffic is too high in the forum!

Bug: Runtime Error 5 during rebuilding of first cell in VTS3
Movie: Matrix Revolutions

I have been getting the same error since v0.31. I have yet to have a successful build (also tried to back-up "Alien"). I always get runtime error 5 during the rebuild process.

I have scanned through this bug thread and noted 3-4 others with the same issue, but if any solutions were offered I missed them.

I have been waiting 5 days to say this: Thanks to jdobbs for the work he's been putting in on this program.

[luphy]

Just a random thought and some questions - I wonder if people who are having problems with stuttering or motion blur are using certain "modified" versions of CCE SP (not basic).

I've never used CCE or the eclCCE - but am I correct in assuming that eclCCE removes the logo placed by the trial versions?

Addendum: I read that the trial versions do not support the advanced option to change the timecode (or something to that nature)....is that true, and does DVDRB ever use that advanced option?

No it does not. That would be illegal. Check the stickie in the CCE forum for instructions on how to remove the logo ;)

[robot1]

No EclCCE isn't a crack.
It simply allows command line input to cce2.5 and allows to open and save ecls to the trial version.
The watemark isn't removed.

DVD-RB Version: v0.38
Encoder: CCE-SP 2.67.00.23
EclCCE: yes
Bug: No subtitles in standalone player
Movie: Donnie Darko R2 PAL

Actually, first time I got to try a DVD-RB backup in my standalone (JVC XV-S300BK). I removed all audio (including DTS) from main movie, just left the German AC3 6ch. I don't see any stutter/jerkiness at all, not at chapter points and not during normal playback. FF/RW, chapter skip, time jump, everything works perfect.

The only problem is, the player won't display any subtitles. I can turn them all on (there are 6 total), but they never show up. The funny thing is the subtitles work fine in a software player (WinDVD 5).

Bugreport DVD-RB V0.38 using CCE V2.5.
I used the advanced AVS-Option "Resize to half D1", only for part of the DVD.
The AVS-Files are correctly generated.
The ECL file is generated wrongly. It has the wrong size values (352 instead of 720) in the parts which where not selected to be made D1.
This causes CCE to fail.

Thanks for this great tool anyway,
Andal

No, I don't think so. The GdipLoadFromFile error message is popped up by CCE, not DVD-RB :) Somehow CCE-SP 2.67 seems to require the MS GDI+ runtime. It's there by default in XP, not sure about W2K. Win9x users definitely need to download the GDI+ runtime from MS.

Andal I just looked through and found the source of that bug. It was using the state of the flag for the last VTS processed in creating the entire ECL. Thanks for pointing that out! The fix will be included in v0.40.

Either way, I'll keep the source files a while longer. This is caused (in my attempt to repeat it) by what is an apparent problem with QuEnc. It doesn't seem to be able to encode single frames. I've repeated the problem and it doesn't even work if I try to encode the AVS external to DVD-RB. I haven't repeated it in CCE, but I suspect it is at the same line of code and I'm looking at what might happen similarly. I am investigating possibly just writing single frames as-is and using them in the rebuild -- you really don't get any space gain on those anyway.

If you have a job that has completed Phases I and II, you can drop out of one-click mode and do the last phase independently. But very possibly the source of the problem may have been something that was done in phase II (like this one).

[boombastic]

Version 0.39,Rejig,EclCCE:no
I succesfully completed the first two pass in one click mode but during the third pass,at end of the VTS01.vob,i get :"err of runtime 75:error of access to the address/file"(transleted from italian...).I get the same error if i make the pass manually.In the .ini file the process flag is 2.
The source is an image created with DVD Decrypter and mounted with Nero Image Drive,i'm going to try daemon tools.

[philos31]

I had a DVD with Runtime error 9 at the beginning of the first step.

I can confirm that this problem is gone, and it is re-encoding as we speak!

Great work....

[boombastic]

The same with Darmon tools and previous version of the program(0.36a)

@jdobbs : it seems to be the same error than me....My source is also a DVDDecrypter mounted with Alcohol 120% Virtual Drive (french version)

I meant a source that was put onto hard drive in DVD-Decrypter's file mode. That way I can know whether it is the drive-emulating program or DVD-RB that is the root of the problem.

[Axlemar]

You might try extracting the contents from the iso and checking to see if they are set to read-only. Sometimes having the dvd files on read-only interferes with dvd-rb so extract them and remove read-only and try to use the files in a folder.

[DDogg]

Just to mention, I use ISO created by DVDDecrypter mounted in Alcohol exclusively with DVD-RB. All standard settings except I do have RMPS checked in the emulation options. Not that [it] should make any difference, AFAIK. Never have a problem anymore (so far).

FYI: There is a fairly new updated version of daemon tools out.

I did it, and it's working....There must be an operation attempted by DVD-RB which is not supported by the Alcohol 120% Virtual drive (write operation ???)

DVD-RB never tries to perform any type of write operation on the source path... As DDogg pointed out it works for some people. I'm not sure what causes this but I am fairly sure "it ain't my code."

[GooglyBear]

hey guys.. I have a question.. I've usually done 1clicks before and in doing the manual 3-step process.. as I understand the phases are
phase 1: prepare
phase 2: encode
phase 3: rebuild

..what is REMERGE? After I click Rebuild and phaseIII rebuild finishes succesfully.. that button becomes REMERGE.. should I click on that again?

sigh.. behold my n00b questions, whee! I only ask because rebuild finishes just fine and I even get the PhaseIII message and it says Done.. but if I click on REMERGE and let it do its thang.. I get the 'runtime error 6 overflow' bug

Added: :confused: How can it work the first time and not the second?

I wish knew why it fails remerge right after a rebuild my friend :( it's why i got confused as all hell.. the Runtime Error 6 overflow would happen only for "Remerge"

and as i understood it, rebuild was the last phase and I saw it finish succesfully but the remerge came up and I got thrown for a complete loop, hence.. posted

thanks for the reply :) this means the video_ts should be ready when i get home.. i'm working with my pc remotely so i can't do certain things like watch video.. otherwise i would've just tried playing it after rebuild ignoring the remerge thing

[loosenut]

Has anyone tried a 'Rebuilded' DVD-+R on a Philips standalone succesfully?
The stuttering problem is almost nonexistent now on a Sony and a JVC player, navigation works fine, but on a Philips, the backups just... play, at best. NO button works (during play). And after 10-15 minutes, sound gets out of sync. Pal or NTSC. On some NTSC DVDs, picture locks up immediately after start.
Same backups play OK on other standalones and, of course, a PC.

I understand that Philips-Marantz and clones standalones are quite picky, or might be that my particular player is too picky, but that problem should be taken care of, at some point.
Something to put at the bottom of the "to-do" list?

the sad truth in a way and a reason i sometimes feel as if jdobbs is going to be trying to close pandora's box is that..

simply put: stuttering, pixelization, skipping, etc etc etc are often the result of BAD CHEAP MEDIA

sad but true.. aside from the early problems of dvd-rb, it's been pretty good and i thankfully have not experienced any of the other problems people are talking about.. thank gawd for ritek:devil:

[jurij]

Does dvd rebuilder support titles with seamless branching? like abyss where you can watch the original or extended version.

P.S. u looking to that italian spanish issue?

[wmansir]

The stuttering is not bad media. I'm using Ritek GO4. Plus I have about 30 movies from this same 50 pack of media already backed up and playing fine on the same player with Big3 (and a couple DVD-Shrink).

However, in loosenut's case it sounds like perhaps the player doesn't agree with the media. 1st, do other backups on the same media play on this standalone? 2nd, I'm wonder how the menu's play, because they don't get touched by DVD-RB?

[Joergen]

Media-stutter usually happens towards the end of the disc and menu items are most often the first items on the disc (written towards the inner circle of the disc).

I've had some lesser quality media recently that shows itself mainly as the player needing longer to seek to an item at the end of the disc or a quick stutter of a couple frames during play that doesnt recreate itself if you rewind over that spot and play again.

But chapter stutters and fieldorder flickers are not media related but software+source+player combinations.

[dave88]

Unfortunately I'm still getting a "0004" error code
the disk is "The Best of Abbott & Costello - Volume 1" it has quite a few stills. This is an the first flippy I've seen with almost 8 gigs on each side, I did not know this was possible.

dvd-rb v0.39
CCE v2.67 with eclcce v1.81

I'll be glad to try out the next release
Thanks!

[Joergen]

Dual-layer, dual-side disc.. wow that studio must like expensive production costs ;)

The media is Tayo Yuden, spindle of 100. On my second 100 spindle, not one coaster (well, apart from some boo-boos I made by mistake :)
Backups with DVDShrink, Instant Copy or DVD2DVDR (with CCE), even burned to the rim, play A-OK on every standalone, including the Philips. So I guess the 'media' issue is not an issue here :)
With Rebuilder backups, menus play ok,(back and forth to audio menu, subtitles, specials etc) but once the movie starts,(play button) it plays with the problems mentioned above. On occasions, I can't even stop it!!! (eject button on standalone)
As I said, exact same backups play perfectly OK on Sony and JVC.

The Philips is EXTREMELY slack when it comes to media quality (even Princos play OK :) BUT also EXTREMELY picky to absolutely correct DVD structure.

[philos31]

@JDobbs:

The disc witch I tried to encode (gave me an runtimererror before)
came out very strange.
(ver 0.39)
The ouput was all garbled, like it gave an avisynth error, stripes in all sorts of color.

I could see that it was the movie because it fades in and out at the right moments.
(Opening 1 of the AVS files, gave me picture, no error's)
What I did was vts1 (main movie 16:9) encode just the way it is, and VTS2 (the extra's 4:3) on Half D1.

I encoded it again without Half D1 on the extra's, and now it comes out OK.

What I think is strange, is that the VTS2 (half D1) option, seems to result in a garbled picture on the VTS1...

RB: 0.39
Eclcce: NO
CCE Version: Basic
Deinterlace: NO

Does it look like the picture posted in this thread:

I don't think Jdobbs last comment in the thread is correct though, it's not a exactly a problem with the script itself, but a CCE + AviSynth + certian scripts/sources error. I haven't pinpointed exactly where it comes from yet. I did some searching in the CCE forum, but didn't find anything.

Yep, it looks like this, but this picture could realy be an avisynth error. (Red color)
My picture is like this, but full screen... and it changes color, fades in and out, just like the real movie does.

I saved all AVS's from the 1st and 2nd encode, so I will do some seaching myself. But that will be tomorow, the fastes PC (where I do the encodes, and he play's UT2004) is in my son's room, and he has to sleep :)
