DVD-Rebuilder 0.65 small interface bug / undersized output

[huesage]

I am not sure if this was intentional or not, but it seems like there is a little bug with the new interface.

In version 0.64a disabling the "output directory" would actually remove that line and the box for the path, which i feel is a logical way of working it.

In this new version, the output box is there wether it is actually enabled or not, this may cause minor confusions.

I am testing this new awesome release with "The Cell" PAL (angles), I will report back if there are any problems with the backup although I am confident you have done a great job as usual!

Thanks again!

Same "problem" here. I always make a new directory named after the movie I'm rebuilding, and so the directory that I used last showed up in both the WORKING PATH and OUTPUT directories. Upon my first run of 0.65, I changed the WORKING PATH directory, but the OUTPUT directory remained the same previous path that I had used previously, and I couldn't change it until I either turned on the ENABLE OUTPUT DIRECTORY, or restarted DVDrebuilder, and then both the WORKING PATH and the OUTPUT DIRECTORY were both set to my new WORKING PATH. Am I making myself clear?

It is a small bug, but if I don't have ENABLE WORKING DIRECTORY selected, DVD-RB needs to be smart enough to set both the WORKING PATH *AND* the OUTPUT PATH to the same name...although I suppose what DVD-RB is doing is simply ignoring the OUTPUT DIRECTORY listed unless you've turned on that option? If that is the case, it isn't a bug, but simply a misunderstanding of what DVD-RB is doing, and as to where it will actually output the AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS...

If that is the case, I would still prefer (if ENABLE OUTPUT DIRECTORY is *NOT* selected) to have DVD-RB copy whatever is chosen as the WORKING PATH into the OUTPUT directory...

Thanks again for such a great product, Jdobbs! I'm about to try my first multi angle disc tonight...SHREK R1 NTSC!

Well, I got up this morning, and Shrek was done. One problem, the finished VIDEO_TS folder is only 3.86 gigs! Also, I don't know if this is related to Rebuilder or not, but I get an error with RecordNowMax when I go to burn it out. I'll try to burn it out with something else, and see what happens. The only thing I removed from the entire DVD (and it was disc 2 of the Shrek set which has the widescreen version on this disc) was remove the French and Spanish. I kept everything else including the DTS track...

It still works the same way. The "Output" box is not enabled unless you check the "Enable" box in the dropdown menu. The only difference is that it remains visible.

Hey Jdobbs,

I figured since mpennel mentioned this problem in this thread I might as well continue in here.

I also have undersized video on a 1:1 copy nothing stripped, rebuilder actually chose 444 as overall bitrate which did seem odd to me, but I still wanted it to finish the process.

I am using the exact same setup as I did for rebuilder 0.64a which worked flawlessly.

- DVD-Rebuilder v.0.65
- ECLCCE v.1.81
- CCE SP v.2.67.00.23
- DGDecode

"The Cell" region 2 -> ISO -> daemon tools mount
Original size -> 7.73GB
Output size -> 2.24GB
(used steal 50% from extras)

I hope this helps, if you need me to run this job again by changing any of the factors involved, please do not hesitate to ask.

PS: I saved the log if you need it. let me know.
