First select "One Pass (CRF) Encoding" under Settings\Encoder Settings\

Then add the line "FIXED_CRF=18" or whatever CRF value you want to have between 1-50.. lower is bigger file, better quality. Around 20 is usually a good place to be..

Problem here is that size prediction goes out the window. So, if you try fit to a disc, that would be very difficult.

This is the only solution that has worked for me. Except for other software, but thats not the purpose of this thread...

Not when importing (normally the video is imported intact). But you can do it when you reencode by checking "Use Suptile for Alternate Forced Subs" in the SETUP dialog.

Yes, ofcourse my head is under BrainFog right now.. But the procedure should be right.

The title name under "Source path:" from his screenshot speaks for itself. Also, I couldn't help noticing the Blade Runner torrent file under BD-RB application.

Previously (with my old GPU (GTX750)) I could only use NVENC on 1080 sources not 2160.
So having upgraded my card (GTX 1660 S) my UHD encodes are now flying along ! really happy days.

However, when I now go to encode a 1080p source using NVENC the burnt disc when played on my standalone Sony player results in bad pixelation

Note, this is not seen on any UHD discs nor on any HD sources encoded with X264, nor when playing via PowerDVD, nor when I was using my old card!
After further testing I can also play the NVENC encoded file via PLEX on my TV and with any software players on the PC, it seems only to manifest itself when playing from disc on standalone blu-ray player(s)
Having tried it now with three different discs, I'm loathe to waste any more coasters, as it seems I'm unable to test before burning.
Any help or suggestions gladly accepted

UPDATE: Selecting High Quality(Default) rather than Highest (Very Slow) seems to fix the issue.
Still a puzzle as to why though?

Get the original disc and try again, not a pirated source which is against forum rules and has been pre-processed. BDRB cannot guarantee a proper outcome

I have found what seems to be an issue with 60.18. I am copying my discs to my computer to use with Plex. I start by using MakeMKV to copy the entire disk to my hard drive. Then I use BDR to shrink the "movie only" to a more manageable size (usually the BD25 preset), and then I use MakeMKV to create an MKV for use in my Plex folders. When I did this with previous versions of BDR, I had no problems with MakeMKV opening the "index" in the BDMV folder and then creating an MKV. With 60.18 I get the following error message:

MakeMKV v1.15.3 win(x64-release) started
Opening files on harddrive at Z:/Video/********/**********
AACS directory not present, assuming unencrypted disc
Failed to decode audio/video data for title #0 - invalid mux or internal error, title skipped.
Title #00000.mpls was skipped
Failed to decode audio/video data for title #0 - invalid mux or internal error, title skipped.
Title #00000.m2ts was skipped
Failed to open disc

The .m2ts file appears to play normally if I play it directly, and the BDMV architecture appears normal. Just as a trial I burned a disc made with 60.18, and it played fine on my BD player. And, FYI, I have tried now 4 different discs with both 60.16 and 60.18. MakeMKV works fine if the files were done using 60.16 and all 4 had a problem on 60.18.

Any thoughts?

oohh.. Why didn't I think of that. Always go for the most difficult solution

I can now confirm that this also fixes the pixelation issue on the 1080p extras for me. I also suspect NVEncC having trouble with 24fps sources as i'm getting stutter with this main movie (Flash Gordon). Have also noticed it on other movies that I think I remember were 24fps.. I'm not 100% on that though as i'm a bit under the weather (Covid is a pain in the @$$) right now..

Ahh, I appreciate this message. I didn't realize MakeMKV now supports ripping full Blu-ray to directory. It's ripping most of my BDs but there are a few I still had to use DVDFab because it goofed. I didn't check the rip first, and started processing with BD-RB, and noticed the process was not correct. Checked the rip, and MakeMKV didn't do it right. A bug I'm sure will be fixed. But wasn't fault of BD-RB.

Interesting. But it works on a burned BD with no issues?

Just as a test, you might want to try replacing the version of NVENCC with the newest one (v05.19) and see if it has an impact. It's available at this address. I haven't tested it yet, but I didn't see anything in the change logs that would make me think there might be issues.

You're not the only person coming across about the Truth about it that I know (I know people personally..). It's real stuff. Heal well. Honestly.

I also use a GTX1660 Ti with a pretty much default BRDREBUILDER.INI, no hiddenopts added.
Graphics driver might not be the most current, I'm on 451.48

I haven't done many 1080p disks yet, but on the finished ones (nvencc, Highest quality) I didn't notice any pixelation, at least not in the main movie.
