Where are these MENU_ options documented? I couldn't find them in HIDDENOPTS or CHANGES.

Ahh......this did the trick. It depends on the workflow. Thanks.

It's a copy from the .ini what is written there depending on your quick menu settings in the GUI.

Then I suppose the .ini has to be edited manually to get an alternative background and change the other settings. However, there is nothing to indicate what alternate settings are permitted or what they mean.

Never mind. I found it under Settings/Import Quick-Play settings.

What type of back-up

It was a fun adventure for me to notice also. "Oh, not a funky feature or a rodent in the program...ahhhh!" You're welcome.

Hello jdobbs,

is it actually possible to run the first pass with a CRF (e.g. 20) and only run the second pass if the target size would be exceeded?
This would help to reduce the size and also limit the size to a given value. Thanks!

Hi jdobbs

They lent me a large collection of favorite movies on bluray. I would like to pass them as I always do with bd rebuilder but somehow able to remove the extras and things i do not want but retaining the original menu. I don´t know the option is there any way?

Cheers and have a happy new year, you and everyone on the forum!

This violates our forum rule 6, putting our forum in jeopardy. You cannot make backups of copyrighted videos that someone has lent to you. Stop this nonsense or strikes will follow.

I also see that you are cross-posting, violating rule 8. You need to read and follow our forum rules or you will run into difficulties here.

@neuron2

Thanks for alerting me and tell me about this. I'll read the rules

Honestly, I do not know, there was no bad intention

Thank you again!

Thank you for your understanding and have a prosperous 2014.

From HIDDENOPTS.txt

FORCED_SUB_LANG=s	s = 3 letter preferred language codes -- default is "eng", can be multiples (e.g. "ger;deu")

Make sure this is set for the Swedish language in BDREBUILDER.ini

Thanks alot

Tried a BD5 today with a one-pass CRF. The CRF value was 16.33 and the final disc 4.00gb.

When DVD Rebuilder misses the target by that much on a one-pass I'd normally deincrement the Q value, click 'Encode' then 'Rebuild'.
Although a CRF of 16.33 probably can't be improved by much, is a similar method available to tune BD RB? Is a 3 step vs one-click setting coming in the future?

What is the target size set to for a BD5, 4482mb or something less?

@ Racer - If the target size of a one-pass fails, doing a second pass shouldn't improve either quality or encoding speed. A new CRF encoding after adjusting the value is the best answer (if it is possible).

[gonca]

@DoctorM

BD5_SIZE=n n = Change the output size (in one megabyte units) for BD-5 writes -- default = 4469
BD9_SIZE=n n = Change the output size (in one megabyte units) for BD-9 writes -- default = 8032
FIXED_CRF=n n = 10..50 - force CRF encoding to use this CRF value (output size control disappears)

Cheers.

I just noticed that the analysis only tested one really low value below the one it selected. Is that normal?

- Analyzing 21.27 15.64 16.74 16.36 [16.33]

[gonca]

It decided that 16.33 was the best value for BD5. As for how many high or low values, it focus in to the value it needs. Next time it could be reversed.

[DoctorM]

@gonca - I know when I've manually encoded using CRF (with MeGUI), tenths of a point rarely made much difference. Later I'm going to try testing clips and comparing 16.33 to 16.00. The bitrate difference should be awfully minor. To extrapolate 16.33 as the best with the next lower tested value is .69 below that seems like a pretty big estimation. Still, I don't know the algorithm used... and DVD RB's method always seemed damn good so I'm willing to assume it's still the best possible system.

@jdobbs - I'm a bit concerned about something though. Doing some further playing around with a BD25 to BD5 one pass CRF, I decided I wanted to compare source vs encode for quality.

source=ffmpegsource2("(Source)\BDMV\STREAM\00000.m2ts").subtitle("Source")
encode=ffmpegsource2("(BDRB Encode)\BDMV\STREAM\00000.m2ts").subtitle("Encode")
interleave(source,encode)

Just a few hundred frames in they go out of sync by a couple frames and then it moves back and forth throughout. No more than a few frames, but I'm at a loss to figure out why. ffms2 should be frame accurate and DVDRB encoding with directshowsource should be perfect since it is being encoded linearly. I'm not sure if I should be worried or not about this, but I've never seen that with encodings before. Any thoughts on this?
