OK. The LED bulb finally lit. You didn't catch what I was doing wrong and I finally caught on when you said the import the tsMuxer BD folder. I remembered something else that was mentioned in the thread, and was what was needed to be done in order to import more than one BD and that was to put all of the BDs in the same directory.

Once I did that, all was great.

Thanks for the help. It took some nudging, but I finally got there. This will be a lot easier when JDobb updates BDRB to do this. I know, wishful thinking, as it will help both of us and who know how many others.

Hi jdobbs,

A few days ago I posted my report on an issue I was having. Its the third time that I’ve tried posting it, you corrected it before and I made the images smaller, so it wouldn’t be so long. Developers usually complain that end users don’t post exhaustive reports of issues, so I tried to be as detailed as possible, with logs, settings and even video shorts that I uploaded in YouTube to show results; yet I still don’t see it approved, so I guess it is still not OK?

I feel like I’m passing an exam of “posting the perfect report” before the message is visible. Could you please instruct me what is wrong this time so I can try fix it again?

Thanks.

I have an HEVC video that is 3840x1600, with E-AC3. Steps done:
1) Used tsMuxer to create BD folder
2) Imported (via browser) the BD folder
3) set FORCE-ENCODE=1 This was done because the first time thru the video was not recoded to 3840x2160.
4) Backup

The video was recoded, but letterbox bars were still not added. This has worked with 1080p video that needed letterbox bars. Does this not work with 4K videos?

Should Audio:Intact be working to pass through the audio?

I tried feeding it two MKV that were from uncompressed UHD rips of their main movies. They both had TrueHD.

The output of one was 5.1 AC and was missing the voices. 1917 ended up having 2 Channel AC3 audio.

NVlastcmd.txt for 1917:
Code:
"D:\BD_Rebuilder\tools\nvenc\nvencc.exe" --avhw -i "X:\1917\1917_t00.mkv" --codec h265 --preset default 
--profile main10 --output-depth 10 --chromaloc auto --colorprim auto --transfer auto --colormatrix auto

If this was meant for me then,
I do step 1
step 2 is File>Import>BD(s) quick reauthor
and I have FORCE_NOENCODE=1 set
I do all my video compression first (usually)

Nope, for jdobbs. It was my understanding that when doing a BD/UHD output that if the incoming video wasn't 1080/2160, it would recode and add the needed letterbox bars.

The first pass it did not recode, so I forced it the 2nd time around and it did not add the bars.

Looking at the log it said that the source video was HEVC 3840x2160, which it wasn't. MediaInfo reported 3840x1600. Could be why no letterbox addition.

I'm not set up for doing HEVC. I normally just let BDRB do it. But in this case, it was not doing what I thought it should be doing.

According to the command line, the 4th audio track should have been kept -- and it should have been copied intact.

My guess is that BD-RB got confused because you imported from what it believed to have been a BD (and therefore should meet standards). So BD-RB assumed that the info in the CLPI/MPLS was correct when it said the source was 3820x2160.

You should be able to correct it by adding the AVISYNTH AddBorders() filter via the filter editor.

What does it do if there are multiple audio streams included in the file? Should it keep them all?

Under special processing -> language selection... all are selected, and the boxes for limit 1 are unselected, and appears to be set "keep all" for audio in the ini

NVENCCRE.INI
Code:
[Options]
VIDEO_CODEC=1
AUDIO_CODEC=0
VIDEO_MODE=2
AUDIO_TO_KEEP=all
SUBS_TO_KEEP=all
AUDIO_TRACK_LIMIT=0
SUBTITLE_TRACK_LIMIT=0
NVENC_CAPABLE=1
USE_EXTERNAL_SUBS=1
HEVC_Q_VALUES=32,30,21
[Paths]
WorkingPath=I:\BD-WORK\

Yep, makes perfect sense.

Sounds like it should keep them all. I'll look at the code and do some testing.

[Edit] Ok. I see the issue. Somehow I managed to not include a check for "all" in the audio language check. Duh...

Another mystery. I imported 4 BDs. When that was done, I clicked on Backup in order to re-encode the HEVC video to fit the BD. But, it got nowhere as it complained that the video had an illegal framerate. Huh? They are 23.976. So, I went looking with BDEdit. In the playlist STN section, the V column had a zero, but the DV column had a 1 and that framerate was correct and it pointed to the correct PID in the M2TS file.

Any guesses as to why BDRB thinks the framerate is incorrect? Is it because it is DV video?

Check the framerate in the CLPI.

I have no idea why it wasn't displaying or wasn't approved... but I manually selected it and approved it.

Thanks jdobbs.

Adding to my report, if you take a look at the info there of that “Extra” video, it shows FPS as 59.97 (vs. the regular full movie), and it’s a standard Zoom call with the director, with nothing special.

Would that have anything to do with the video being so sped up vs. the audio? It amazes me that right-clicking the extra an doing the “Preview” with your Media Classic Player, it shows the video already sped up; similar to the output if I encode it!

My guess is that the problem goes a layer beyond your encoding; why is Media Player Classic playing that video so fast, on a brand new Windows 10 installation? Anything to troubleshoot there? Other players (VLC, DVDFab, Leawo, etc.) play the video at the right speed, so I don’t know what Media Player Classic is using internally to play it, but makes me suspect that the same issue that it has ends up happening after I encode the disc in BD-Rebuilder; that if I can’t fix Media Player Classic playing it fine, it would be pointless to test the encoding, as the same thing would happen there.

Thanks; hopefully I can get some ideas on what to troubleshoot. Have a great weekend
