I've done all of those movies. In fact "The Matrix" is one of the test discs I keep on my harddrive and do for virtually every release.

I would suggest you completely remove HAALI, AVISYNTH, and FFDSHOW -- and they reinstall them all exactly as instructed in the first post of this thread.

Hi!

The following (from Post #1 in this thread) is likely required for proper installation under Windows 8:
Quote:
Note to Windows 7 Users: The first time (and only the first time) you run BD Rebuilder, you may have to "Run As Administrator". This is necessary so BD-RB can make CODEC preference changes in the Windows Registry.

I'm running "The Matrix" right now just to be sure -- it has already completed the secondary video encode with no issues.

Aren't you glad you decided to upgrade to Windows 8 before the bugs are worked out?

I personally will wait until they wring it out. There has never been a clean major release of Windows (that I can remember) that didn't require patching after the first "final release" -- and I go all the way back to v1.00 in the 1980's. You can follow this very thread and see the issues they caused in Vista and Windows 7.

What OCX is it mentioning? There are several.

It's running fine for me under Windows 8. I had to right click on the
REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT file and select "run as administrator".

So that means that Windows 8 no longer includes the MSCOMCTL.OCX as a part of its standard distribution. Interesting. I added that .BAT file because some distributions (not all) of Vista & Windows 7 had that issue.

I'll add that step to the installation instructions.

That has absolutely nothing to do with BD Rebuilder. Call Microsoft and tell them their new operating system sucks and is slower than Windows 7.

Do they know how ridiculous it is for someone to have to "optimize their code" for a new release of an operating system? How do you think Apple would fair if suddenly those 10,000+ apps for the iPad stopped working because they needed to be "optimized"?

I realize Microsoft owns the PC world right now -- but based on their attitude and lack of vision, I have doubts this will still be a M$ world in 5 years.

...stepping down off my soapbox.


By the way -- if it is slow, you typically want to check some of the security or search settings. For example, you will find that a drive that has indexing enabled (look at its properties) is significantly slower than one without -- and frankly it really doesn't give you much in return. I also find that disabling anti-virus software when I'm running jobs makes a lot of difference too. Any new "security features" in Windows 8? If so, try disabling them.

you should add Windows 8 to list of issues you don't support, would make life a lot easier

systen still crashing


I've followed the "slimm" step:
Fist I've deleted BD_Rebuilder....
then unzipped the archive
Run "AS administrator" REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT
First time a window show that there is no MSCOMCTL.OCX
So i 've copyied the ocx file in windows directory a and system32 too.
again Run "AS administrator" REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT
and it was ok.
so, last step, I "run as administrator BDRB..
no luck.... system crash again (need to push reset button)

It's something in your setup. I've been using BD-RB in windows 8 since the original RC1 win8 release. I'm now using the RTM on more than one machine without any issues at all.

I plan to run Windows 8 for testing purposes soon. I seriously doubt I come across any problems, given how I like to run my OS's I disable the administrative crap. I'm the only one who uses my computer. They should almost ask this upon install. So we don't have to deal with this silly... stuff! And it sounds like more than a few are successfully using windows 8 and BD-Rebuilder.

Once again, I've stopped receiving updates to this thread. I guess I need to post here every so often :S I'm still running 4203, because I received no update. I should know better though

The program just works 99.9% of the time Heck, even Dvd rebuilder encounters the occasional problem. I forget what the last one was. Oh, that's right. It was an unstable Ram overclock. Oddly, it and another, were the only programs affected by it. (so technically, it wasn't the programs fault, an overclock was to blame).

why? Just use a virtual drive like "Virtual Clone Drive" available on slysoft.com, mount the iso, point BDRB to the virtual drive & done

yes, that I know, but I think it would be a good option for people who do not know. (A friend to another, I commented) but thanks for answering
