But -- the quality will probably be about the same either way. |

This is why I keep stressing to people that they need to avoid codec packs, other video packages etc... and to reinstall with the apps from the first post if there seems to be problems or if they've installed something else. Some programs are just way to intrusive into your configuration, and "forget" to ask you before they modify your environment. But the advice just never seems to get through. Especially for those who really, really, really want to install newer versions of FFDSHOW, HAALI, or AVISYNTH for no reason other than "it is there".

LAVF=Pixelation FFDSHOW=NO Pixelation And I don't have any codec packs.. Everything installed as described in the first post. As Capsbackup said, LAVF caused it on this particular VC-1 stream. I had never seen any pixelation before and have been using LAVF since you implemented it. But I agree totally.. Codec packs can be a pain in the.. //LD |

I have successfully created several BD25 images with the latest build but the Sound of Music (tis the season..) just will not compress for me properly without artifacts. The original disc is fine and so far I have tried using automatic, Good and High Quality settings. What I get are horizontal bands of purple color which periodically flash on and off when watching the compressed image. I don't think I have any codec packs or such installed, just the suggested ffdshow, although is there a simple way to confirm this?
Has this come up before or is there another setting I should try? |

- Windows Version: 5.1 [2600] - AVISYNTH Version: 2.5.7.0, Ok - HAALI Splitter: Ok - FFDSHOW: 3326, Ok - FFDSHOW VC-1 set "disabled", WMP11, Ok - FFDSHOW MPEG2 set incorrectly: [0] - FFDSHOW AVC set to "libavcodec": Ok - BD Rebuilder v0.36.0.6, Ok - X264: Ok - AFTEN: Ok - FAAC: Ok - MP4BOX: Ok - WAVI: Ok - TSMUXER: Ok It looks like there may be a problem above? I have not enabled the setting 'Use X264's internal LAVF for decoding', but I'm not sure that answers your question about AVISYNTH. Last edited by TheBreen; 20th December 2010 at 20:59. |

[Edit] I just looked it up online -- and it looks like the original is in AVC as well. But could you check to be sure? Last edited by jdobbs; 20th December 2010 at 22:00. |

When you refer to the LOG of the encode, do you mean the BD-Rebuilder log for this job? ----------------------- [19:17:44] BD Rebuilder v0.36.06 (beta) - Source: THE_SOUND_OF_MUSIC - Input BD size: 42.17 GB - Approximate total content: [02:54:41.429] - Target BD size: 22.95 GB - Windows Version: 5.1 [2600] - MOVIE-ONLY mode enabled - Quality: High Quality (Default), ABR - Audio Settings: AC3=1 DTS=1 HD=0 Kbs=640 [19:17:44] PHASE ONE, Encoding - [19:17:44] Extracting A/V streams [VID_00360] - [19:42:04] Reencoding: VID_00360 (1 of 1) - [19:42:04] Collecting video information - Source Video: MPEG-4 (AVC), 1920x1080 - Rate/Length: 23.976fps, 251,303 frames - Bitrate: 16,702 Kbs - [19:42:04] Reencoding: VID_00360, Pass 1 of 1 - [09:37:08] Video Encode complete - [09:37:08] Reencoding audio tracks (if req'd) - [09:42:45] Multiplexing M2TS [09:52:58]PHASE ONE complete [09:52:58]PHASE TWO - Rebuild Started - [09:52:58] Rebuilding BD file Structure [10:04:22] - Encode and Rebuild complete - WORKFILES folder removed.

BD Rebuilder v0.36.07 (beta)
I've updated the first post of the first post of this thread with a link to the latest release of BD-RB (v0.36.07). Changes for this release:
Code:
- Corrected an issue in which the iPod Alternate output was not accepted on some earlier iPODs. Changed encoding algoritm to adjust levels and maximum bitrates to maintain compatibility across all models. - Modified the WEIGHTP=n hidden setting so that a value of 0, 1, or 2 can be entered. This value represents what will be used in the "--weightp" option of the X264 command line. Default is "1". - Made some changes to the "Quick Encode" decision algorithm to ensure portions of multi-angle or multi-path streams cannot be encoded with varying levels of quality. - Improved the initial scan for pulldown. Also corrected some inconsistencies in the MPEG-2 extended scanning routine to ensure proper hybrid and pulldown recognition. - Changed the default for IVTC so that it is now enabled. If you are playing back your encodes on a PC and your CODEC doesn't handle pulldown very well, you may want to consider disabling IVTC in the SETUP dialog. - Added a modified method of inverse telecining. BD-RB can now takes advantage of DirectShowSource() in that it ignores pulldown flags and provides frame conversion. This can result in a significant speed increase in encoding of IVTC'd sources (as much as 30%). In order to use the new method, use the "IVTC_TELECIDE=0" hidden setting. Note: This may later become the default, but since it is still experimental it requires making the hidden change. - Changed the "Approximate Content" display so that it show total for source, rather than just the total that requires reencoding. - Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1834). - Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r1834). - Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes. |

Just noticed if in audio setup I select "Limit to one track for each language", no audio tracks are selected for the Blu-ray Salt, even though there are 9 english tracks listed. Possible reason is the DTS Express (2nd) is listed first in the tree view list.
If I remove the Limit to one track, then eight of the nine are kept, of course except the DTS Express track. Since this is a multi-m2ts Blu-ray, with three seperate versions of the movie to choose from, it requires many deselections of the audio tracks that are unwanted, and for the 20+ m2ts per version it is quite time consuming and requires checking every title to make sure all selections are the same and match each other! Since it appears more titles are being released that are multi-m2ts, a simpler audio setup for these type movies will be very welcome. |

You can expect the select/deselect of audio to apply to all parts of a playlist (at least for the main movie) to be included in the next release. Last edited by jdobbs; 21st December 2010 at 19:20. |
