Ch3vr0n : Wrong, The Dark Knight is all in HD except for the PiP content that is not concerned by this setting. Batman Begins is an older release with most of his bonuses coming from the DVD release. Transforming an old 29,97fps SD content to 59.94fps 720p is not a neutral process. It can give good result, and it can fail! Beyond that, you shouldn't compare 2 different releases, even if it's the same bat guy who plays on it! About the Audio, you should try, to see if it comes from the HD track.

Hi chompy,

As suggested by SoniG I added ''AUDIO_AMPLIFY=1' to the .ini file and it now correctly skips re-encoding.

SoniG · 9th May 2010, 17:56

That's what I was about to reply!

@JohnnyB.Good
As you are probably aware, you don't have something set up properly to get this error, or another codec pack has priority over ffdshow.
You should try to uninstall ffdshow, haali and avisynth. Make sure you also delete the Haali folder found in C:\Program Files\. Uninstall any other codec packs too. Reboot.
Reinstall the ones from where you download BD-RB.
Run ffdshow video decoder and encoder and set per jdobbs recommendation.

IlPorcospino · 10th May 2010, 05:39

Thank you for your reply. I've something set up umproperly. But, just before Sherlock, I made OK encoding of Up in the air. Is the set up sensitive to movie?

IlPorcospino : Run inspect.exe to check if all is ok. My 2 cent it comes from the VC-1 setting!

Where is it? If you are all right, I'll send you 2 cents despite the fact I'm "genovese"

SoniG · 10th May 2010, 06:49

IlPorcospino : In you BD Rebuilder folder. I will make you a 1 cent rebate!

Guess you didnt read my post fully. I noticed it was upscaling so i said i redid the job without upscaling. That the pip doesnt have audio i don't care. My issue is why doesn't it play on my player when the dark knight does and they both use the same VC-1 codec. Begins works fine on my comp. Even upgraded the players firmware but to no avail. It hangs at title 1, i can pull up the pop-up menu but the screen stays black and movie doesnt begin

Post the good log so :
[17:29:47] Reencoding: VID_00027 (9 of 17)
- [17:29:47] Collecting video information
- Source Video: MPEG-2, 720x480
- Rate/Length: 29,970fps, 25.595 frames
- Convert: 1280x720, 59,940fps, 51.190 frames
...

Now, I repeat, each release are different even if it's another Batman with the same format. I will not teach you anything in saying that not only Batman BD are encoded in VC-1. I already gave you a few differences between these two releases, I will give you another : The Dark Knight has no PiP. So if your movie don't launch somewhere, try to remove the PiP from the process in adding in the config file : PROCESS_SECONDARY=0 . You didn't have the PiP sound already? Let remove the image! However, in doing this, you should retrieve the main movie and have a stutter free playback on other players. My two cents it's a slight PiP compatibility issue!... Maybe... Maybe not... Who knows!... If it works, as IlPorcospino, I will make you a 1 cent rebate!

Ch3vr0n · 11th May 2010, 01:46

K i'll try that and burn it to a blank bd-re. Don't want a coaster ^^ can be a couple days till i know if it works. Aint got a bd-player at home, only at my mom's where i visit every week. Ill keep you posted

If you think so it may be related to the pip yes, cause its weird. In PDVD 10 i can display it fine but without audio (main movie audio plays) and in TMT3 its the exact opposite. The movie plays but with VERY jittery audio and not the main audio so i assume its the pip audio. Maybe thats the issue. I've backed up VC-1 discs before so that can't be the problem. I'll get back to you

SoniG · 11th May 2010, 09:08

Ch3vr0n : Yep let us know. I want my 1 cent!

Ok, after some tests, adding AUDIO_AMPLIFY=1 to BD-REBUILDER.INI still reencodes my original AC3@640Kbps tracks

iSeries · 11th May 2010, 18:01

@ chompy - and you definitely don't have 'Use 448kbps for AC3 encoding' ticked in the Setup dialog?

candyman_09 · 11th May 2010, 18:58

Sorry to come here with a probably easy to answer question, but due to a lack of time for reading 408 pages I decided to post here the following:

What do I have to do (or set up program) when I just want to keep DTS Sound (not DTS-HD) without automatically get it recoded to AC3 ? This does not seem to work when the BD is already ripped completely to HDD and THEN using BDrebuilder to do a movie only backup. (??) I always get AC3 then...

iSeries · 11th May 2010, 19:35

@ candyman_09 - what output size are you using? If BD5 or BD9 BD-RB will re-encode to AC3 as DTS is not allowed on AVCHD. If BD-25 you only need to tick 'Do not convert DTS to AC3' in the BD-RB setup dialog.

candyman_09 · 11th May 2010, 19:51

Yes, thank you, iSeries, this time I got DTS with the settings you described (since I needed complete output I used a custom size of 47.500) . I just was confused by the info-screen of BDrebuilder, which showed AC3=1 DTS=0 HD=1 . That looks like DTS is disabled or something...
Thanks agaín...

btw. it could be helpful to have a BD50 option for output...

Yes, sure, the original AC3 is 640kbps and the reencoded one has also 640kbps... As it's a movie only, I've just remuxed the BD-Rebuilder result changing the reencoded AC3 with the original track, it's easy, but quite annoying.
