I'd have deleted it

All bluray burners are much of a muchness and all discs are much of a muchness. We haven't reached the point where companies are at rock bottom margins and most of the cheap discs are utter pants...

But i want to go a step further and there are some movies i want to keep the HD audio so for this i think the best bet would be to burn them on bd25.
BD9 as a great Image Quality, can't find a difference on a 40" LCD.

So for keeping DTS, TRUE-DTS etc .. the best bet would be a br burner?

Thanks in advance.

Hmm BD Rebuilder produced over 4.9GB of files even though I specified DVD-5, so ImgBurn refused to writes the files to disc. Is anyone else running into this problem? I'm re-running the whole thing now with the custom size set to 4.2GB. v0.30.02

Hi!

I'm guessing you have a BluRay disc with multiple "heavy duty" audiostreams - and have not deleted enough of them to leave sufficient room for the video, making burning to DVD-5 infeasible...

Hmmm I only have one DD+ audio stream.. I also just realized that I was using a newer version of x264.exe than the one that came with v30.02. I reverted the binary and trying it again.

@jdobbs, equad, Kakashi Sensei,

Reverting to ffdshow 2857 seems to have restored things back to normal. I have a conversion program that automatically updates ffdshow. I should have known this was the problem.

I backed up the dark knight and the file structure now looks correct.

thanks....cwh

Nope that didn't help at all. Still produced 4.9GB. What could be going wrong?

Try using a custom target size of 4300 instead of BD5.

EDIT: I see you already tried that... oops! Just keep lowering it until you get to a number that either works or chokes immediately.

Processing the REGION B version of "WALL-E" (Different than the Region A version) has already been discussed at length in the following thread:

http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...26#post1276826

Try my suggested test/fix detailed in that thread...
Thanks for the replies guys.

I bought the disc used from the local video store so it shouldn't be a Region B disc, but my experience with ripping it seems to suggest it is. Region A discs don't seem to have the issue of being split into so many parts. Very strange!

Regardless, I read the post above which lead me to try a few things. I tried it with MakeMKV on the image I had already ripped via AnyDVD, but I couldn't get TsMuxer to recognise any of the subtitles afterwards.

Instead I just used TsMuxer to open the 0081 playlist and unselected the unnecessary video, audio, and subtitles. This generated a Blu Ray folder structure that seemed to play fine with TotalMedia Theatre and it included the subtitles.

I'm now feeding this into BD Rebuilder as I write this to see what comes out the other end. I realise that use of a modified source is unsupported though.

So is it TsMuxer that generates the really long filename shown in my previous post when going at it directly with BD-Rebuilder? I don't really know enough about this stuff just yet to know if I should be puzzled why it worked through the TsMuxer GUI?!

I understand the issue relying on java, it also takes some registry checks to get external java programs to work on 64 bit OS's.

Good luck on the venture and I look forward to seeing resize work with subs on virtually everything.

Hi,

I have to come back on the black area encoding problem, as it drives me crazy. The latest BD RB compresses fine now, but whenever I have large areas of black I get compression artifacts of the worst kind. For example compressing a fully black screen results in an encoded mid grey screen (sometimes with very lively artifacts) that only changes to black when enough other picture content comes into the game.

I am sure that this is a problem with the avisynth re-encoding. Most likely any of the prameters used generate the problem? What can I do about this?
(Right now I am trying some parameters in the ffdshow output settings, like turning off the automatic BT601/709 setting and swithing it to ITU-R BT709 and setting the output level to TV/projector instead of computer monitor).

By the way - is there any GUI type interface that I could use only for the video resizing with Avisynth (like FitCD) that can generate the required Avisynth script?

Post your .INF file -- it should show the target and actual sizes. Also post your .INI file. It will show your settings.

I'm guessing you're using the "Fastest (BD-25)" setting. I experienced something similar in backup tests of up my "LOST Season 1" discs. I fixed it by adding CABAC back into the fastest setting. It makes is very slightly slower, but corrects the blockiness in those scenes. You'll see it in the next release.

Here's the INI. Where do i get the INF file?

[Options]

RESIZE=0
ENCODE_QUALITY=0
AUDIO_TO_KEEP=eng;
SUBS_TO_KEEP=eng;
TRELLIS=0
COLOR_BOOST=0
RESIZE_1080=0
DTS_REENCODE=1
AC3_REENCODE=0

CUSTOM_TARGET_SIZE=23450
[Paths]
SOURCE_PATH=D:\BD\THE_READER\

Keep in mind that this is the first time i've run into this problem. I've rebuilt about a dozen blu-ray discs with success so far.

Sounds like the decoder in the Blu-ray player might have a broken decoder; an extremely common mistake is to forget to realize that CAVLC+8x8dct uses different nnz values for deblocking as it uses for context. This can cause serious artifacting in some cases, and if hardly anyone ever used CAVLC on the device, probably nobody would notice until now.

BD_Rebuilder 0.30.02_beta "expired"

Hi!

I unzipped BD_Rebuilder 0.30.02_beta to a folder on my PC and ran it. But it only showed "Beta version expired. Please upgrade to newer version."

Could somebody please tell me what I could do about this?

Cheers
