DVD-RB Error #0004 (merged)

[gort9k]

pinobird and sadik:

Searching the forum I've read that people have foundsome kind of trouble with high end pcs. Could this be the real problem?

It seems strange that having a fast computer works against you. I my case I've got a PIV 3.06 hyper threading with one gigabyte ram (dual, in fact there are two gigs ram).

I'll make a try with CCE 2.67 and tell you what I got.

gracias

[sadik]

actually dvd-rb runs pretty nice on my pc. :D
i have no problems with it.

[gort9k]

Sadik, this time it worked.

I used CCE SP v2.67 instead of CCE Basic. Deinstalled CCe Basic, and replaced it with CCE SP and EclCCE.

As I didn't want extras (menus, foreing languages, subs, etc) I used IFOEDIT to strip all the unwanted elements. After that used DVD Rebuilder. And everything went fine. I'll have to make some tries more. But I think this time I got it.

Thanks so much for your help.

[sadik]

I'm glad it worked. :)

You gotta show your PC who's the boss!

:P

[gort9k]

Well, in this case "pc vs me" I ain't sure about who's the boss

Thanks

@DocDrAGONps: jdobbs, what do you think about this suggestion of implementing a template? The problem is that changing those settings can easily result in poor picture, and it gets complicated by which features exist (and how they are implemented) in different CCE versions. I also believe that the better route if someone is going to use filters is to use them in AVISYNTH. The internal options in CCE are pretty basic and frankly don't work that well. AVISYNTH has lots and lots of filters available that could specifically address almost anything.

I wanted to thank jdobbs, Knocks and Sir Didymus for theirs replies (a few posts before), i tried many times and i don't have this error anymore (i installed version 0.50 since), but i have other problems which are not yet solved. :eek:

However, i don't know what was going wrong before to get this error #0004. :rolleyes:

[biggy7]

ripped Police Story to Hard drive using DVD decrypter, then used DVDRB 0.51c in CCE mode with CCE Basic.

Did 2 pass enocode, all went well, did rebuild and at about 44%, it came up as 0004 error, buffer overflow.

i didnt rip anything out of police story, was a 7Gb disk, did all files.

im gona try it again with CCE SP and dvdrb 0.51c.

Hi Guys,

I have never posted to this forum and in fact subcribed because of this problem. I was using CCE Basic 2.69, Avisynth 2.54, mpeg2dec3g.dll 1.0.1 and I had this consistantly with every DVD I tried to burn (8 dvds). I tried DVD-RB versions 0.49, 0.51 and 0.51c and even tried using mpeg2dec3g.dll 1.0.0 aswell. Everytime I had the same error.

I changed the CCE version to CCE SP 2.67 trial with eclcce.exe and... no more #0004 error.

Just thought this might be of help to people who suffering like myself.

hi,

i'm not sure but what is the relation between version of CCE installed and rebulding phase ? none ?

and q to creator of this cool tool : can i put all required files into one folder and manually edit rebuilder.ini and remove paths to files with just *.exe and *.dll names ?

thanks in advance

P.S. as i said "COOL TOOL" if you need tag line or sumtin' like that :cool:

Stephen I'll take a look at this to see why it would act differently using CCE Basic 2.69.

[smreid]

Thanks

It would be nice to know why this was happening. It seems that loads of people have got it working with basic (from what I can gather by reading the forums) but however hard I tried I just couldn't get it working. The configuration in DVD-RB was exactly the same with both versions of CCE yet one give the 0004 error and the other didn't.

If you want me to post the configuration I used to help you recreate the problem then let me know.

By the way, thanks for a GREAT application.

[k-c-ksum]

ive been getting the 0004 error on alot of titles, it always seams to happen at or near the end.

The only fix i have found is to copy over uncompiled vts's and ifoedit get vts sectors and then run the whole thing through a transcoder leaving the correctly authored vts's untouched.

[Jomile]

Hello all.
I have read through all your posts and dont see anything that solves my issue. I have cce 2.67 and DVR-RB .51c.
I have backed up about 20 dvds with DVD-RB and more importantly 5 or so with this version of dvd-rb and had no problems.

I am working on American Beauty and during the rebuild phase i get the overflow error. Any advice is muchly appreciated.

Thanks

1. DVD-RB Version: 0.51c (and b)
2. Encoder being used: CCE BASIC 2.69.01.08
3. Using eclCCE? No
4. DVD: The longest day (PAL)
5. Bug encountered: Error #0004 when rebuilding buffer overflow

I didn´t test this with the latest version because the dvd used is a bit long.
Whit the following everything was fine:
2. Encoder being used: CCE SP 2.67.00.23
3. Using eclCCE? Yes

The error came up when rebuilding and in the first 10%, maybe this will help.

[geezer]

There is a new version of CCE-Basic 2.69.01.09.

Bug Fix
- In 2.69.01.08, 2-pass mode encoding was not stable.

May be worth a shot ??

[clarkkent333]

I was having this same problem using CCE Basic 2.6+. I switched over to CCESP 2.66+ and elCCE and haven't encountered it since.

[old-hack]

I purchased CCE Basic 2.69. I'm not happy hearing that people have to switch to a trial version or bootlegged version of CCE to eliminate the #0004 error.

In fact, error 0004 relates to the flow of data that is being pulled from the original DVD, not the MV2 stream that was generated by CCE.

I would suggest, though, that you download the latest update from Cinemacraft (2.69.01.09), because it says the previous version wasn't stable in 2 pass mode (which is what DVD-RB uses).

[jdobbs]

Also... I am using Basic 2.69, and have been consistently -- and I've never gotten a 0004 error (at least not in any of the last several versions of DVD-R).

[geezer]

I use CCE-Basic 2.69 as well and haven't experienced the 0004 error either. I use DVDDecrypter v 3.2.2.0 or DVDShrink 3.1.7 to rip. I also use DVDRemake Pro 2.0.1 or Shrink to preprocess before rebuilding.

System Specs
XP SP1a
P4 2.4 w/ 512 MB RAM <-- yes, I have another 512 on the way...
100Gb Western Digital HD NTFS file system
Avisynth 2.54
MPEG2dec2dg.dll v1.01
DVD-RB 0.52

[old-hack]

Just to clear my own mind, I stripped the angles of the movie I was working on with DVDDecryptor instead of DVDRemake Pro. DVDRebuild processed the movie without generating error #0004. So clearly it must be how angles are stripped that impacts DVDRebuild's ability to complete the process without error.

[old-hack]

Just downloaded DVDRemake Pro 2.1 and DVDRebuild .053. Need a few hours to test out the angle thing and report back. Also have version 2.69.01.09 of CCE Basic.

[old-hack]

Not sure if this was a valid test, but wanted to report it anyway.

Since my successful rebuild process started with DVDDecryptor to remove angles and then DVDRemake Pro to remove unwanted video segments, I already had the encoded video segments (from the encode step of DVDRebuild) and the contents of the D2VAVS folder still there.

So I only re-did my stripping process using DVDRemake Pro 2.1 to remove angles and unwanted video segments. With these files as the source for DVDRebuild.053, I was able to rebuild the already encoded video created during the encoding process of DVDRebuild (using CCE Basic 2.69.01.09).

On this pass, DVDRebuild did not generate Error #0004. So I believe DVDRemake Pro 2.1 solved the angle stripping issue.

I didn't think it was necessary to go through the encoding step of DVDRebuild to verify if the DVDRemake 2.1 source files were stable for rebuilding with the encoded video streams.

EDIT: There was an error at the end of the rebuild process (error 6). So I'm re-encoding and will report results later tonight.

[old-hack]

Just finished my Star Wars Episode 1 backup project. DVDRemake Pro 2.1 stripped angles, unwanted menus, unnecessary video, and allowed me to select which of 3 menu systems to keep.

No DVDRebuild errors.

[wmansir]

jdobbs has informed me that the current cause of this problem is due to problems with the source files, most likely due to the use of a preprocessing program to modify them. Since DVD-RB doesn't support modified files, I'm going to close this in the known issues sticky.

I know this statement is incorect, i've tried 2 rips using dvd decrypter. Nothing was changed & not other processing was attempted. Both trys at encoding resulting in the error 0004.

Is it actually the cce basic version that people are using?

Does this software actually give better backups that Dvd shrink etc...?

Is it worth buying the latest cce basic?

Is it worth percivering with the software to get to work?

[NobbyNobbs]

What version of DVDDecrypter did you use, did you rip in ISO mode ?
Older versions of DVDDecrypter had a bug, that left a small (0 byte ?) vob file encrypted, this gives the 004 error in RB.

Pretty sure its the latest versio, i'll check when I get home.

What difference would iso mode do? Please explain.

[NobbyNobbs]

There was a bug that was fixed in the latest version, I have experienced this myself, (also believed I had used the latest version, but had actually used the version before)
As far as I know, the bug only showed in ISO mode.

[thesicilian]

OK, let me get this right. :)

Non iso mode & latest version, should work ok?

I know I never used iso mode & i'll check version lunch time.

[NobbyNobbs]

Latest version works ok with ISO mode, on older versions some discs (Babylon 5 season 5 & 6 among others )will give the 004 error in RB.
Older versions should work ok in file mode, but I personally prefer ISO mode.

[thesicilian]

I check my dvd decrypter version. It is the latest version. I've left it encoding using QuEnc to see if it works with the rip I tried with CCE Basic.

Why would iso mode make any difference?

I'll post QuEnc results tonight.

Thought I'd double check this response. If the intent of DVD-RB is to only process original DVD content, then DVD-RB has no responsibility for successful processing of any DVD material that is the result of stripping unwanted material?

Here are some examples of preprocessing programs:

DVD Stripper
DVD Remake
DVD Remake Pro (strips angles and unwanted video)
DVD_Decryptor (strips angles, audio streams, and subtitle streams)
IFOEdit (strips lots of stuff)
DVD-Replica

Let me know if I've interpreted the statement above correctly.

[wmansir]

That's correct. The problem is that those programs can alter the structure in any number of ways and jdobbs wants to concentrate on getting original, unmodified discs to work. So if users are receiving this error with original discs it would still be helpful to report it here.

Of course you can still use preprocessing tools. I use them all the time myself and have never gotten error #0004. But if you encounter an error you should rerun your job on the original source and see if the problem still exits.

[thesicilian]

I'm ripping from orig discs. Been using dvd decrypter in file mode & iso mode. Same error with both. I've just tried smart ripper, encoding as I type this. Will post results in morn. If this fails I'm gonna try it with QuEnc.

Just looked in DVD Decrypter settings -> File Mode tab. Multi Angle Processing was unchecked so I suppose angles would be stripped ;)
Remove IFO/BUP RC Protection was checked, Remove IFO/BUP RCE Protection was checked and alos Patch M2V Timecode was checked.

My guess is that rip has been altered. I'm gonna uncheck all & enable multi angle processing with all the angles. Stream processing I will check show all. Select files is set to all.

Please can someone else post their settings In file mode. Once I have someone elses settings I will re rip & encode again.

BTW the rip I done with smartripper failed also. Different movie altogether.

[thesicilian]

Is version 0.53a a fix for this error?

Version 0.53a

- IMPORTANT BUG FIX. Fixed an error in which original (unchanged) files were not being copied correctly into the destination directory. This could cause created directories to fail upon write.

No. Error #0004 is related to troubles in the source, while the fix is for missing copy of original vob files (no point in processing "fragments" less than 50 MB).

Error #0004 is most probably depending to specific problems in your configuration.

Please read carefully all the pages of this thread, since useful suggestions to people that actually have solved the problem have been already indicated...

EDIT: Obvious to say, but in any case 0.53a is more recent than 0.53, so better anyway to use the newer available release...

[thesicilian]

Checked the config over & over again. Re installed software etc etc.

[Sir Didymus]

@thesicilian

- Is it occurring to just one title or it is a systematic error, on every DVD you try to backup ?
- What release of decrypter are you using ?
- What release of avisynth ?
- What type and release of CCE are you using ?
- Are you using eclcce ? What release ?
- Is eclcce pointing to the right cce exe file ?
- Is DVD-RB pointing to eclcce (not directly to cce) ?
- Are the CCE Options of DVD-RB set to the right type of CCE ?
- How long did it take to complete the prepare step ?
- And the encoding ?
- Did you check if the results of the prepare step are all ok [playing the avs files with a media player] ?
- Did you check if all of the results of the encode are ok [playing the m2v files] ?

Sorry for asking all of this stuff, but errors #0004 are supposed to be absent at the present stage of development, and the beta testing on the subject has been carried out by lot of people for a lot of time, so the possibility of a problem in the application is now very low, at least on my undestanding (and on my experience); on the other hand what I have seen is that the error is a clear indication of some configuration problems, and this is a certainty if you observe #0004 on all of your attempts.

Cheers,
SD

[Gurm]

Ok here's the situation.

I receive Error #0004 on exactly ONE DVD so far.

Paycheck.

I ripped it using the last version of DVD Decrypter (currently it's on 3.2.2.0 and I was using 3.2.1.0), so that might have something to do with it. I can re-rip using the newest version and see if that helps at all...

At any rate, I have done NOTHING to it. I simply ripped it to a folder, and pointed DVD Rebuilder (0.52) at it, and it went all the way through encoding to the last phase (rebuilding) and on the 7th segment it gets an Error #0004. That's it.

It's not imaginary, I'm not getting it for EVERY disc, but it DOES happen, reproducibly. If you need me to jump through some hoops for the sake of debugging, I'll be happy to fiddle. Just PM me on here.

- Gurm

[Sir Didymus]

@Gurm:
Please give it a try with the latest release of decrypter. It is fundamental. I experienced #0004 errors, but just on few titles, and just up to release 0.44 of DVD-RB. Starting with release 0.45, I never got the error any longer.

This is just my experience, and I did not want to say other else than: please double and triple check your configuration in order to be totally sure the trouble is not depending to some configuration troubles, since this was the case for other people.

Also, could you please check your title has not ILVU units or multiangle features ? These are actually not (yet...) supported, and DVD-RB should report it; it is anyway easy to check with ifoedit...

[thesicilian]

@ Sir Didymus

Yes its happening on every rip.
Latest release of DVD Decrypter 3.2.2.0.
Latest release of avi synth 2.5.4
Latest release of eclcce with CCE 2.5SP
Yes eclcce is pointing to the correct CCE.exe
Yes DVD-RB is pointing to eclcce
Yes the cce option are correct
Prepare takes between 5-8 minutes, depends on length of movie
Encoding takes 1-2 hours, again depends on movie length
Have not checked the results.

This morning I set up latest DVD-RB with CCE 2.5 SP & eclcce. Set it to one click mode & left it. My earlier trials were done with CCE Bascic 2.69. Will be going home lunch time & I will post results. I will also post a screen shot of my set up tonight to prove I all setup correctly. The rip I am currently backing up is attack of the clones.

One thing I do want to point out though is that I ripped phantom manace with DVD Decrypter in file mode, all with default settings. I loaded it into DVD-RB & I got an error message saying that the movie was multiangle or something like that & that DVD-RB does not support it. I will also post a screen shot of this error later. This must prove that DVD Decryepter is not stripping angles like mention earlier in this thread.

[thesicilian]

YES!!!!

It worked perfect with eclcce & CCE 2.500 SP. I must say, the results are excellent compared to dvd shrink.

Gonna test now with CCE2.67 & eclcce.

Will post results.

Well if it was multiangle it converted ok. :)

Just done another with CCE 2.67 & eclcce, worked great again.

Could the problem be related to "Steal Space" option?
