Unfortunatly, everything seems to be ok. See the 3 snapshots of the 3 keys in the order you stated them (not the order they appear in regedit) in attachment.

Are you positive you are using AVISYNTH 2.57 (not 2.58), and the versions of HAALI & FFDSHOW shown in the first post???

I can't tell from the image -- are those values in the "Wow6432Node" area or the other one?

You may also want to try right-clicking on the streams and attempting to play them back. If the CODEC is set right you should be able to view them when MPC gets executed.

I worry a little that you'd been editing the REGISTRY before -- not sure what impact that could have on this whole thing.

Thanks

I have a Sony BVD-E300 and use BD-RB as described in the top post of the bug thread, I have done STAR TREK and 2012 to Optical Quantum BD-25 and TDK DVD+R DL as BD/9 both run great. I did movie only english only sub strict AVCHD. About 20 hrs to do each. The only changes I have made is to check all in the Blu Ray audio. Love the Program and thanks for you hard work JDobbs!!

As I've said before, if you follow the instructions it will work. It's only when people "get creative" that there is ever an issue. I appreciate your kind words.

I always follow instructions and yes, i learned to read at school. Appreciate your concerns but condescendence will not fix my bug. Maybe let me feel a little bit more guilty of asking for help but definitly not fixing my problem.

Meanwhile, if you understood my problem was fixed it is not - even with the keys correctly setted as posted, it is still not working... I posted a log just above that shows that and i am re-posting it here:


-----------------------
[16:36:10] BD Rebuilder v0.32.08 (beta)
- Source: THE_MUMMY
- Input BD size: 29,42 GB
- Approximate total content: [02:04:53.235]
- Target BD size: 23,93 GB
- Windows Version: 6.1 [7600]
- MOVIE-ONLY mode enabled
- Audio Settings: AC3=0 DTS=0 HD=1 Kbs=640
- Resuming from previously started job.
[16:36:12] PHASE ONE, Encoding

- [16:36:12] Collecting video information
- Source Video: VC-1, 1920x1080
- Rate/Length: 23,976fps, 179*658 frames
- Bitrate: 19*550 Kbs
- [16:36:12] Reencoding: VID_00000, Pass 1 of 2
- Encode failed. Retrying.
- Encode failed. Retrying.
- Reached retry limit. Aborting. <- Observe that there is no complain anymore about VC-1 or MPEG2 not being correctly setted up for FFDSHOW
- FFDSHOW Revision: (3133)
[16:36:13] - Failed video encode, aborted

---------------------------------------------

BD-RB is probably doing its job but the codec seems to be innaccessible. Why can it BD-RB access AVC or H264, but not VC1 ? Answering that question would probably fix the problem.
I'll probably have to re-install Windows 7 (again) ... Expecting things won't stop working at the first new program install.

Maybe one solution would be to include the VC-1 codec somewhere in next BD-RB package (under 'Tools' folder like the other utilities) and if it doesn't infringe any copywright so it doesn't have to rely on so flakey / obscure registry things.

My point: One cannot stop using his machine fearing that the next program he installs will comprmise what is already working. A computer generally runs more than one program everyone will agree.

@PhilippeB

I recommend that if you want it to work, you start from scratch and completely reinstall Win7. I have no way of knowing what has or has not been modified on your system. There are thousands of others using it on Win7/64 -- including me -- and it simply works as-is. There's obviously something different on your system -- but there's just no way I can put my finger on what it is long distance.

As for including the VC-1 CODEC in the package... that's an extremely tall order, and considering the total of two BD-RB donations I've received in the last month (combined to add up to $27) -- and the fact that I've spend four times that much buying discs in the same period so that I can repeat reported issues -- it isn't likely that I'm going to go any route that adds additional programming time/expense. Frankly it's all I can do in my mind to justify continuing the project at all.

I had the same issue as PhilippeB

Manually using the Last Command in a Console, the x264 1st pass encode was just "quitting" almost immediately.

I downloaded another x264 compile with the options BDRB uses from another site and it works fine.

I am not certain if it is because I am running BDRB in VMWare XP, or because my CPU is old (A64 3000+) so certain compiler optimizations are unavailable, like SSE4.

The debug info given by BDRB has always been enough to troubleshoot what is causing the problem. It has never been BDRB itself, but some of the helper programs distributed with it.

Fresh install of XP and I've had the same problems a few others are mentioning. Pass 1 of 'Good Luck Chuck' completes, pass 2 fails. I have tried everything from installing wm11, disabling vc-1 etc and have had no success.

I never had problems with previous versions of bdrebuilder. It may not be a fault of bd rebuilder itself, but one of the other applications it uses.

Interesting. I am running XP in virtualbox myself. I was able to encode lost boys no problem and make it through the first pass of good luck chuck, but it can't start pass 2.

Look at the times in the log. It's probably not actually completing Pass 1... it's just not having an error returned.

What version of BD-RB are you using? If it isn't the latest, download v0.32.08 and try again. What you are describing was a known issue on an earlier version that was fixed.

I ran the bdrebuilder last command manually from a command prompt and it seems x264 is aborting with an error:

avs [info]: 1920x1080p 1:1 @ 24000/1001 fps (cfr)
x264 [info]: using SAR=1/1
x264 [info]: using cpu capabilities: MMX2 SSE2 SSE3 Cache64
x264 [error]: ratecontrol_init: can't open stats file
x264 [error]: x264_encoder_open failed


Could this be a sign that the first pass did not complete correctly? The file is there, but I suppose it may be damaged/truncuated.

Rob

I've got the same issue under Win 7 64bit also. BR-Rebuilder gives me no warning or messages about changing settings. Have tried as admin and re-installing codecs and avi synth.

The file is there however.

Read my post above yours. It never really finished pass 1... so there wouldn't be a stats file for pass 2.

Read the instructions in the first post. Download the versions as it says to do, then try again. You obviously didn't read/comply because your FFDSHOW version is wrong.

Sorry if I sound rude, but this is about the 9000th time I've posted this exact same answer. It fixed 8998 of the previous issues.

What is wrong in this version? Forcing old revision is not a good idea.

I downloaded bdrebuilder again and cleaned out the temp folder. Pass1 is running right now. I gave the XP virtualbox 2 processors and the ETA to finish this first pass is about 3 hours.

Using versions that don't work are an even worse idea. The concept of upgrading simply for the sake of upgrading is silly.

About half the versions released since then have issues of one sort or another that make them stop working with BD-RB. I don't know why -- I just know that going back to that version fixes it. I tell people to stick with one that works or else its just a crapshoot. I'm testing 3326 now, and when I feel comfortable there are no issues I'll recommend it.

I am having a little trouble with the fluidity of some scenes. T

I reencoded a Jamiroquai live concert. The original was extremely smooth when panning around the stage. When I watched the reencoded version it was slightly and jerky and blurry during the same panning scenes. The picture itself was fine with regards to sharpness - pretty much the same as the original - it was just during movement. It was a little similar to the old days with CCE when you encoded with the wrong field first, although not anywhere near as bad - I'm just trying to describe it a bit better.

I noticed the same thing happening when I reencoded Monsters Inc, although this time it was during the scrolling on the menu.

I thought that reencoding would not affect the picture in this way, only perhaps slight blockiness or grain.

I tried the Jamiroquai concert full disc and movie only and got the same result - slight motion blur

No problem and thanks for the reply. I've tried installing the recommended versions and no change though. I am actually beginning to wonder if its the source files although if others are having the same issue?
