And as jdobbs said that fateful Christmas Eve 11 years ago...

Happy Holidays!

Wow. 11 years... I need to get a life.

@Priapismic

I must have missed that the source was UHD. That bitstream error pops up every now and then on UHD sources. While the team over at GitHub works on it, I'm implementing a workaround for the next release (along with a group of fixes that will improve the reliability of UHD processing). Barring anything unexpected, you should see the release in the next couple of days.

Thank you kindly. And, however one thanks a community - thank you all as well.
I'll put something in your stocking on payday.

Merry Christmas all

Or at the least publish a stable version and put the uhd builds as beta

[jdobbs]

I have updated the first post of this thread with a link to the latest version of BD-RB (v0.61.01). Changes for this release:

- Updated build with a new version of TSMUXER
  that supports UHD.  Disabled correction
  of UHD M2TS, saving considerable time. 
- Added code to prevent non-compatible sources
  that have been imported but are not compliant
  from flagging a "keep original" signal.
- Updated encoding parameters of UHD sources 
  so that master-display settings using values 
  of zero are not output for encoding.
- Changed the default so that, on UHD sources,
  an original imported file is used for input
  for encoding if it is still available.
- Fixed an error that resulted in a "- Source 
  issue found, attempting correction..." to
  popup unnecessarily during UHD muxing and
  cause special muxing to take place.
- Corrected an issue that could cause several
  odd problems (including a possible wrong 
  language track) when importing some sources
  with TrueHD audio tracks with Atmos.
- Fixed an error in which HDR could (rarely)
  not be transferred to newly encoded file.
- Added code to improve muxing speed during
  import of UHD video file sources.
- Made numerous changes to make UHD processing
  more stable.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

A special thanks to a5180007, who has made TSMUXER much more UHD friendly -- taking the burden off of BD Rebuilder.

Also, I want to wish everyone who contributes to this thread Happy Holidays! I hope you all enjoy it.

Thanks for the update and Happy Holidays to all.

I'm looking into getting a 4K burner. But, here is the issue... the Sony X800M2 4K/BD/3D/DVD/CD player will not play BDXL media. The burners that I've seen offered do BDXL. So, how do you 4K users play copied UHD-4K discs,.i.e., what do you use to burn discs that the player will play?

If you use BDRB to create BD25/BD50 discs, does that get around the issue?

Thanks for any hints. I should be springing for the 4K upgrade in early spring.

My 'workaround' came from experienced users; our Samsung QLED has an HDD input port, and supports .m2ts, MKV, etc.
So, rather than play the OEM player restrictions game, I obtained an Asus BW-16D1HT (firmware 3.03) and downgraded it to 3.02 via instructions at MakeMKV. That done, files are transferred to an HD, which is put in a Startech dock (I'm sure many other makes are compatible but I have two others that are not) connected by USB to the TV. The Samsung TV has a built-in software player. Voilà, I can play all of my BDs from one source.
Hope this helps.

I burn everything to BD-25 or BD-50 discs. Of course that means that almost everything has to be reencoded and that takes a considerable amount of time.

@jdobbs
Can you please add the possibility to replace the subtitles/audio and change language of subtitles/audio diretly on BDRebuilder GUI ?
Something like right click on subtitle/audio and select file to use for replace…
That would be a nice improvement...

The ultimate plan is for a DLP 4K/3D projector. The reason is that LED flat panels and LED projectors have a delay issue that causes crosstalk when displaying 3D. DLP doesn't have that issue. So, no USB connections. But, there are other ways to read files off the LAN to the projector. It'll be somewhat like what you do.

Thanks, I figured that that trick would work.

I suppose you missed out on this one then?

Cause that's exactly what it is 4k capable 3D DLP projector

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...with-3d-audio/

campaign just ended a couple days ago

4k was out of my budget range & i don't own any 4K stuff (for decrypting, or discs themselves). So i grabbed the 1080p version and it my plans work, it'll replace my 42" TV

Plans are:

TV decoder to HDMI 1
Chromecast Ultra to HDMI 2
Logitech Z-5500 via toslink for audio

100" TV at a fraction of the cost

[MrVideo]

I didn't miss out. BTW, it isn't 3D. This is potentially the projector: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BenQ-HT3550-...wAAOSwtQxd5Sjn

Potentially 180". 7.1 receiver @ 100w per each of 7 channels. A self powered sub-woofer that can rattle the foundation.

Best to have a projector without keystone, or if it has it, to not use it. Keystone correction means that all of the pixels are not used.

If I were to win the lottery (ya right), the dream projector would be the same ones used in theaters with RealD 3D projection. Those projectors are damn expensive.

[Ch3vr0n]

It supports DLP 3D just like you talked about.

@ MrVideo; RE: the dream projector would be the same ones used in theaters with RealD 3D projection. Those projectors are damn expensive.

I'm saving my money for 8K and passive 3D that is just around the corner. In a couple of years an OLED 100" 8K is what I am holding out for, lol.

The new version have problems with Dolby Vision discs. My Sony X800M2 plays the rebuilded DV discs "Cold Pursuit" and "The Secret Life Of Pets 2" only with DV off. When I turn DV on, the film is completely black.

With 60.29 the rebuild of Cold Pursuit stops with error, but Pets2 with 60.29 play my X800M2 wit DV fine.
