I've been trying to encode a movie file that is compatible with Scenarist BD 5.7, but by default the encode that I made with Ripbot264 was not compatible with Scenarist BD. This are the commands I used at first to encode the h264 stream:

"--level 4.1 --preset slow --tune animation --aud --nal-hrd vbr --vbv-bufsize 30000 --vbv-maxrate 25000 --b-pyramid none --bitrate 16000"

This resulted in this error upon importing in Scenarist BD:
"Error : The picture is not encoded as multi-slice picture with 4 or more slices per picture in case of Level 4.1"

It was easy to fix by adding the "--slices 4" parameter, but after the encode I got another error:
"The number of fields(frames) displayed in a GOP exceeds the limit."

Does someone know how to fix this? And are there other things that I should change to make the encode compatible with Scenarist BD?
