turning subtitle to default ON
I think I remember a time when right clicking on a subtitle in the stream window of BDRB would turn the subtitle ON by default. Is it correct to assume that this function has been removed? I, for one, am not able to get it working.

I remember a time when this was possible as well. I'm thinking that perhaps the feature is only available under certain conditions. Not sure. That being said, I just use BDedit after the fact to turn a given subtitle on by default if need be. I also have a nifty little program I downloaded called "Set Default BD Tracks" which works with "movie only" streams created via tsMuxer. It provides for setting the default audio track and default subtitle track including whether you want the given title to play once or play repeatedly.

I'm running BDRB on windows 8.1 not in/on a VM.
I have a gigabyte motherboard, the GEFORCE1660, and an i5 chip. This is setup as a HTPC however, the case is relatively small so the cooling isn't very good. Primarily because everything is so tight, I bought the 1660 to offload all the heavy lifting from the CPU to the GPU which I've got liquid cooled and when I use the GPU for tasks, it generally keeps the heat down more than when I use the CPU. It has kept the heat low for things like Plex, Jellyfin and xsplit/twitch. My workstation and my laptop are both linux, thats what I use at work so I'm most familiar with it. I do run VM's in the workstation, maybe the confusion is that I said I have cross compiled software, in particular ffmpeg and a few others on a Linux VM for my windows 8.1 HTPC. I did this specifically because many devs are leaving behind win 7/8 in favor of only toolchains or compilers that work on Win10. Quote:

But it is transient. If you exit BD-RB and reopen it -- you will have to select it again. On the other hand, turning it on and adding it to the BATCH list will hold the setting. Did the popup menu not appear when you tried it? Last edited by jdobbs; 31st July 2021 at 13:35. |

I tried it on different blu-rays but the popup menu does not appear. Will I have to make changes to the ini file? Edit Oh, I see now. It only works in movie-only mode. And I wanted to use it for a series blu-ray in full-backup mode. Last edited by musiclover; 31st July 2021 at 18:08. |

Yeah, I should have mentioned that. You can't do it on a full backup because it would require BD-RB to modify the code of the original. Interpreting the code stream, following all the alternative paths, and making modifications to each would be a pretty significant programming project.

On a related note...
If you turn a subtitle track on by default using BDedit keep in mind that if multiple playlists are involved that change may carry over to the next playlist when playing the resulting Blu-ray. As such, you may need to update each playlist telling each whether you want a subtitle track turned on by default or not. At least that's what I've observed anyway. An example of this would be a TV series authored to Blu-ray where only certain episodes contain forced subtitles, the forced subtitles in each case being their own subtitle track. If you only want those subtitle tracks turned on by default you also need to set the playlists without a forced subtitle track to not have any subtitle tracks turned on by default.

It's a shame there are not more of these manuals for BDedit. I find it a very difficult program to use and understand. Last edited by musiclover; 1st August 2021 at 20:17. |

Not sure what you are encountering with your software based Blu-ray player, but at times with PowerDVD 18 I'm not able to navigate a given Blu-ray menu with my keyboard initially and it's not specific to QP menus. It happens with retail Blu-ray's as well. Minimizing PowerDVD, then maximizing it again always resolves the issue.

Hello. I have a disc that comes with the theatrical version and the director's cut of a movie; however when I try to re-encode to a BD25 I only get the theatrical version files to show for re-encoding. There is a different playlist for each version and each of them has a set of different m2ts files to accomplish their goal, however BDRB is not displaying the files of the second playlist (director's cut) and they are not being processed. Since some of the files are shared between versions and I like to remove HD audio the result is a movie that suddenly skips sound because it changes from regular DTS to DTS-MA and then back. I really don't know if I made sense, but if I did I'd really appreciate any help. By the way I do have the MIN_M2TS_SIZE=0 and MIN_PLAYLIST_MINS=0 settings on.
