BD Rebuilder: Video encoding fails always

[candyman_09]

Hi,
trying to encode BDs using latest build of BD Rebuilder (0.61.25) and also older builds at the moment ALWAYS failed...(??), no matter what the BD is. (running of course in administrator mode, Windows 10 V2004 Build 19041.546)

Immediately after it fails, look in the BD Rebuilder installation folder for a file called LASTCMD.TXT. Copy the contents of that file and paste it into a COMMAND window. When it fails it should give you an idea of what is happening. If you can't make sense of it, cut-and-paste the result into this thread so we can see it.

I suspect you may have to reinstall the helper apps again. Sometimes other installs can overwrite settings/apps and cause this kind of issue.

Thanks for your quick help ! I've done what you told me... in cmd I got this error :

avs [error]: DirectShowSource: couldn't open file K:\XXXXX_DL\Video_source_name\BDMV\STREAM\00015.m2ts:
Klasse nicht registriert
(L:\_BD-REBUILDER_WORK_\WORKFILES\VID_00015.AVS, line 2)
x264 [error]: could not open input file `L:\_BD-REBUILDER_WORK_\WORKFILES\VID_00015.AVS'

Anything I can do about it ?

It looks like the source file "K:\XXXXX_DL\Video_source_name\BDMV\STREAM\00015.m2ts" doesn't exist anymore at the time of the encode. You haven't, by chance, unmounted that device have you?

The error seems to say that a class is not registered "Klasse nicht registriert". You may want to do a search for that error. I did a quick look and saw something about a DLL that may not be registered with the O/S.

Also, you may want to try renaming your working folder so it doesn't begin with a special character ("_").

The source file 00015.m2ts of course does exist and I did not unmount any drive...

But then... I re-installed all the "helpers" as you recommended before, FFDSHOW and the Matroska Splitter as well as AVISYNTH, just as you described in the README.txt file which comes with BD-Rebuilder, taken from the links you enclosed. Then I registered MSCOMCTL.OCX (regsvr32 MSCOMCTL.OCX) manually in cmd (administrator).

The result: Everything seems to work fine now !!

Thanks again for your help !

Good to know you've gotten it working.
