BD Rebuilder Beta - Bug Reports Only

[turbojet]

To be safe I think the certificate folder should be included in the image, it doesn't do any harm.

Finished second BD5 and it was 4375 MB, fairly accurate so far on size for me.

jdobbs I mentioned the MPC-HC problem seeking m2ts muxed from a .264 video. No replies yet, but until they fix it could you encode to mkv files instead?
That would fix the problem, and it shouldn't affect anything else.

[jdobbs]

I'm not sure I understand. The M2TS file that is created is actually copied as-is to the BD directory for creating the BD file structure... and that's the real purpose of BD Rebuilder.

[turbojet]

Currently it goes m2ts -> x264.264 -> m2ts = MPC and MPC-HC don't like this file and go out of sync gradually, go way out of sync if you seek. Every other player I've tried handles it ok.
m2ts -> x264.mkv -> m2ts = MPC and MPC-HC and every other player I've tried is ok.

I have no idea why this is the case but it is.

Found a bug. Source bluray is mpeg2 1080i. Now bd-rb obviously tries to deinterlace the source with a FieldDeinterlace(blend=false), but when the source consists of two m2ts files (e.g. 00000.m2ts+00001.m2ts), the script has an error, as it first attemps to FieldDeinterlace and then loads the source. Should be the other way around. Here is the avs:

#Created by BD Rebuilder - v0.17.11 (beta)
video0001=DirectshowSource("H:\BLURAY\SOURCES\FLASHBACKS\BDMV\STREAM\00001.m2ts", fps=25, audio=false)
video0002=DirectshowSource("H:\BLURAY\SOURCES\FLASHBACKS\BDMV\STREAM\00005.m2ts", fps=25, audio=false)
LoadPlugin("M:\ripping\BDRebuilder\tools\decomb521.dll")
FieldDeinterlace(blend=false)
video0001+video0002
ConvertToYV12()

Avisynth reports "invalid arguments to function FieldDeinterlace" since there is actually no video loaded prior to calling the FieldDeinterlace.

@MikeyBK -

Sony BDP-BX1.
Funny thing is that the files are on my HDD and they play virtually perfect?!?~! ... except for no audio with the menus.

I have this same player and the two full backup attempts, U571 and Casino Royale, NTSC, have had similar problems with menu playback. I do not play the files back on the computer though, only burn to disc with ImgBurn and played on Sony BDP-BX1. Either no audio or motion menu starts and pauses, audio continues but video remains still image.( post # 141 and # 68)
I have not seen anyone else post this problem. I have kept all the default settings, and BD-RB completes succesfully without any errors, so I don't think it is something I have done. Backing up Batman Begins now with BD-RBV01711, and will report results when finished.

Well, it was the Cerficate folder missing that was why the first burn did not function, and now the BD-9 plays when inserted into my Sony BDP-BX1.

However, like you mentioned, the menus do not have audio... and at times has a split second hestitation when navigating to each option, especially when trying the chapter selection. Very minor hesitation, but none the less it's there.

Omce again, the video itself is superb!... even on the extras, and for me that is the most important ability of BD-RB...

Just tested Batman Begins, NTSC, full backup, BD-5 with BD-RBV01711 and it says completed successfully, 4.26GB. However, as with a previous test with U571, I get no sound from the movie. Upon insertion into my BDP-BX1, intro warnings play and Warner Home Video intro plays with sound. When menu is displayed, all buttons are selectable. Press play and movie starts, video quality looks pretty good considering the BD-5 size, but there is no sound during play. Cannot change audio tracks during movie playback either, as no pop-up or selectable audio tracks are displayed when pressing audio on the remote. Nor can subtitles be selected during playback, since pressing the subtitle button on the remote does not bring up the available subtitles. Same problem as I experienced with U571. Also noticed that even trying to change the audio track thru "Settings" in the main menu does not work. Radio button shows I have made a different selection, but if I go back to that settings menu for audio, the original, default audio track is still the one selected. Same is true for the subtitles. A previous back-up of Casino Royale allowed for audio and subtitles to be changed during playback of the movie. Also, whatever audio track was selected during playback, only the english was heard.( Of course I only kept one english soundtrack ). But regardless of the audio track selected, english only was always heard.( Unlike my experience with DVD, where there would be silence for the removed audio tracks if you changed audio tracks during playback). Batman Begins does have the option for English or English Dolby TrueHD, so my thought was if it was a remapping issue. But I am unable to change the selection. The audio file is in and has been muxed correctly to the m2ts file since when I play that m2ts directly with media player classic, the audio plays back fine, with amplified volume (cool). When I open the m2ts file with tsMuxeR_1.8.8(b), it shows the english AC3, 448kbps, 1 jpn sub at stream # 0, and 1 eng sub at stream # 1. Has anyone successfully backed-up this movie, Casino Royale or U571?
If this is or could be a remapping issue, maybe it is possible to have a very small AC3 file,blank or just .5 seconds of silence, to hold the audio tracks in place.( I believe what was needed to be done in DVDMaestro many days back for proper audio alignment of tracks).

Not sure if it's me (likely is) but i installed this on 2 comps, one was XP and one Vista. The XP one worked fine, but the Vista one would ALWAYS crash when encoding audio, seems aften.exe wouldn't work for me. I had to download a clean copy of aften (a few bytes smaller than the one provided in this release) and i'm able to continue. Ripped my hair out trying to figure out if it was some other codec i had installed that was causing the issue, but it was aften.

Just a heads up in case somebody else runs into it.

Good catch. I'll fix it for the next release.

Could be my version is outdated... but I'm running it on Vista ok. Can you post a link to where you got your version of aften, and I'll use that one on the next release.

[[SLiM]D12]

I just got it from here:

http://download.softpedia.com/dl/eb4...ften-0.0.8.zip

Hi!

I have done National Treasure 2, German Version. Basic functions are working, but:

- Main Menu is stuttering, and there is no sound there (thats maybe, because I only added german at the main movie)
- No English audio, does not matter, if I select it via Popup Menu via PowerDVD option, german and english commentaries are OK.
The original english Audio is TrueHD.

I now started over again, and added everywhere the german audio, maybe thats fixing a few things, especially the menu.

Bye

[jdobbs]

TrueHD should come though with no problem (but it will be converted down to DD) - but not if you haven't selected it.

Thanks. That is the most recent version according to SourceForge -- apparently I was using an older version (SVN). The next release will include v0.0.8

Get latest aften builds from here: http://code.google.com/p/wavtoac3encoder/

Is BD-RB encoding a new ac3 track from a truehd one? (Did i understand this correctly?)
Are you aware that blu-ray discs with truehd have ac3 also attached to it? You can that and not encode a new one.

[jdobbs]

That's where I got the one that was reported as failing... but there's a newer one now, I'll download it.

@[SLiM]D12

Can you try the one from that site and see if it works for you? I use the Win32-bin version.

[[SLiM]D12]

I can but we'll have to wait until tomorrow when my encode is complete.

[jdobbs]

Thanks.

@jdobbs
Just tried a test from the back-up of Batman Returns but I burned it to BD-RE with my laptops Matshita BD-RE UJ-225S, and now the audio and subtitles play perfectly. I can select them while the movie is playing, changing subtitle tracks and audio tracks. English audio is always heard regardless of track selected. Reburned to DVD+RW with this same burner and same results as previous post, no audio heard or subtitles displayed nor am I able to select them while the movie is playing. So I tried Verbatim DVD+RW and Sony DVD+RW media, with my Plextor PX-800A and my Samsung TSST SH-S202N DVDRW drive. Always use ImgBurn and UDF 2.5. I'm not sure what else to try. Any suggestions? I have made these same movies with MeGui, eac3to,tsMuxeR_1.8.8(b), and FixclpiGUI, with one eng. AC3 and 1 eng. sub, burned to DVD+RW media and play back is almost indistinguishable from the original. Now just to figure out burning to DVD-R or DVD+R DL with menus and extras...

[jdobbs]

Did you have the default settings selected for audio, or are you trying to keep the originals? Note: The "English is always heard" is how it is supposed to work that way for silenced tracks (not necessarily English -- but whatever was kept).

Are you using the latest firmware on the BX-1? I think it is version 010. It has some fixes related to BD-JAVA.
