Bitrate greater than 9800000

[Smurf1127]

Did a Vob-ID demux on a Multi-Angel dvd using DIF4U 1.4.7, BatchcceWS, scenaid .27 to create the scenarist script, and using scenarist 3.0. During import, I receive this error:

Error F:\SERENDIPITY\VTS01\VTS__01_V009-no-cce.P.16~9_1.m2v
Error : Bitrate (9801600) should be equal or less than 9800000.

Error Importing failed

Anyone have any ideas why this happened, and how to fix this? Searched the forums for an awnser, but couldn't find one.

Thank you for the help,

Occasionally a no-cce file has a massive bitrate, typically 20000, way above the combined 9800 limit. I seem to remember these are usually stills. See what the bitrate is using bitrate viewer. In any case you will need to encode them in cce manually, just pick something like 5000 kbps, it will take a split second to do them.

I havent seen this happen for a very long time, its probably just down to a few specific dvds, infact, if this is from a small VTS set (<100mb) and it just contains photos from the extras section then I wouldnt bother to encode, stills navigation can get screwed up and unless you know how to reset the navigation (which I don't) then its best to leave alone.

Hope this is the answer for you.

Yeah, as a rule, the (video bitrate + audio bitrate + sub overhead) has to be under the 9800000kb/sec limit. It doesn't have to be thru the whole file, the bitrate can peak for just a second and it will cause scenarist to crash. That is more or less why it happened. Now just listen to the Chubmeister to fix it.

Thank you both for your help and explanation. Chub, re-encoded the still frame, like you said only took a second. Once the file was re-encoded, everything worked well. Thank you again.

this is killing me. I've tried to run the offending no-cce script through cce manually with cbr 5000, and I'm getting that exact same import error from scenarist. there must be something painfully basic I'm not doing?

Looks to me you didn't update the script to point to the new file....
