Menu Audio

Another quick question if you don't mind... a couple menus I've encountered still have LPCM audio @ 1500kbps (according to TMT3) after being reencoded to BD9. Should BDrebuilder be converting the menu audio to AC3 at a lower bitrate if I'm selecting BD9? Or should I not be concerned with that? Thanks again for your help...

No, it should remain as-is. Menus have to be treated differently.

Jdobbs,
Is there a chance to add 256 or 384 kbps to the AC3 re-encoding? I'm looking at making DVD-5 backups of my HD-DVD movies, and would like to use the following specs (which I've used withanother prog, but I like the results of your encoder settings better.) 1280X720 23.976fps, 5.1 256kbps AC3, Movie only. Dropping the audio allows more headroom for the video, which is more important to me on a small dvd-5 backup.

Thanks for the great program!

Hmm... no reason I can think of not to drop it. But once you get below 448Kbs for 5.1 the audio quality noticably drops. It might be better to downmix to stereo w/surround.

For a 2 hours movie on a DVD5 the bitrate increase for the video at the expense of the audio isn't too exciting: about 1.5% (per audio track) when reducing from 448 to 384, and 4.5% when reducing 448 to 256. The loss in audio quality is probably more critical than the gain in video quality, I would say.

First of all thank you for your hard work and great piece of software you've created!
Just one simple request if possible. I've come across some situations when keeping the lossless audio track from the original blu-ray into a BD9 would not hurt the video bitrate (small movies for example) and it would be nice if you could made available the option to keep HD audio in the process of making bd9's. Thanks in advance.

Cheers

To allow the use of the x64 bit version of x264 request

Hi jdobbs,

Can you add the option to allow the use of the x64 bit version of x264 r1471 (NAL-HRD v1.32 patched) in a similar way that Ripbot264 allows you to use the x64 bit version?

As I do see a up to 10% speed increase during encoding when using the x64 bit version.

It don't think it works with AVISYNTH, but I'll try it.

There's avisynth64 being worked on, the few filters BDRB uses are available. Also if you don't resize or deinterlace you can feed the m2ts into x264 directly and get another 5-10% speed increase without depending on haali, avisynth, directshow.

Keeping Menus, getting rid of the rest

For years i have used 'VoB Blanked' to do my DVDs. What i like about this program is that i can keep the menus, and get rid of everything else (except the movie of course .

That would be a nice 'In between' option in BD-RB, not having to choose between a Full movie (unacceptable image quality - too much compression needed) and Movie only (Very nice, but still - it's a shame to loose theses nice HD menus).

Just being able to 'Blank' the video segments we don't want manually, and re-link the BD-Menu to itself when accessing it would do the trick.

Of course i have no knowledge of what it implies so don't want to make it sound too easy. Just a though.

Until jdobbs implements it in BD-Rebuilder you can try/test multiAVCHD and blank all things not needed and then process the disc in BD-Rebuilder.

Or use avs2yuv to pipe the videostream from the 32 bit avisynth to the 64 bit x264 in the same why RipBot264 does...

Can that be done so as to preserve the original menu(s)?

Hell, I can't even remember what forum I'm in right now.
