jdobbs,

I have a question. I'm trying to backup a couple movies that keep giving me the PGS Error or whatever it's called. I looked into it and for the main movie file, there is a 2nd audio track that can not be turned off. Is this 2nd audio track making the audio too large for the file? and if so, how do I disable the track? Clicking it like the others won't disable it...

Whenever you have time. Thanks!

Can you tell me exactly what the error message says?

I'm gonna have to start another backup. I'll have the exact verbage for you tonight...

It is something about the audio/video being oversize.

please bear with me for not finding an answer to the following question:

which setting can i use in order for rb to NOT reencode audio streams?
i have mono streams in a title and i dont see any point in "upconverting" them.

Thank you for the wonderful program. You have done a great service to many.
I have had several successful encodes with it, and only two failures, one of which is detailed by logs below. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Reinstall HAALI (Media Splitter) and FFSHOW and try again.

In SETUP set "Do not convert DTS to AC3" and "Do not reencode AC3" check boxes.

Check to make sure you have VC-1 set to "wmv9" and AVC set to "libavcodec" in FFDSHOW

do these settings also apply for movie only dvd-9 conversions?

i thought they were meant for blu-ray only.

Yes, they apply. But only the core (non-HD) portion is retained for BD-5/9 (the "down-to-dts" or "down-to-ac3" flags in TSMUXER are used when the audio is demuxed from the original stream). Also, if you have "Strict AVCHD" selected there may have to be a conversion since DTS and some high bitrates are not supported in AVCHD ("Strict AVCHD" only applies to BD-9/5).

So there are some things to watch for -- for example, if you choose a movie-only BD-5/9 backup, and have not selected "strict AVCHD", and the original contains DTS -- you may be creating a movie-only disc that is NOT AVCHD compliant and will not work on some players because DTS is not a part of the AVCHD standard.

The best recommendation is to always keep "Strict AVCHD" selected and convert to AC3 for movie-only BD-5/9.

Hmmm... I should probably set "Strict AVCHD" as the default... I was going to do that a long time ago and forgot...

[Edit] One other note. LPCM is always converted to AC3 on BD-5/9, because of its size.

Thank you for the quick reply. I changed VC-1 to wmv9 (it had been disabled) but still no luck.
What is so extremely curious is that all of my backups are processed identically (ripped to HD, then movie only ISO is made with clown_BD, then burned to BD-25 if small enough, or shrunk through BD_RB if not), and BD_RB will reencode most but not all.
' doesn't make sense does it?

All I can say is that when I take it straight from the original BD, I have yet to have had a failure in several hundred reencodes... that's why I don't support reencoding of preprocessed sources.

Have you tried the original directly into BD-RB with Movie-Only selected? That seems like a lot simpler solution. It will also do a direct (no reencode) copy if the movie will fit.

I did not know that. Well then, that's the solution. I'll run direct to RB from now on. Thanks!

Jdobbs,

sorry for the delay. I'm getting the below error on a couple movies.



Is this 2nd audio track that I can't de-select the cause of this?



Again, thanks in advance...

It means the combination of the kept audio and the PGS tracks is too big to allow any room for video on the chosen target size.

well is there any way to deselect the 2nd audio and video? I can't get it to x out. The 5 movies that give me this error all have this 2nd audo/video. All my other movies worked perfectly. Maybe just a bad rip batch?
