Hi!

Such an apparently mystifying backup problem has been previously noted many times in this thread - and most often, believe it or not, the solution is to do a thorough cleaning of the disc and then perform the backup again...

Cleaned the disk and checked for scratches... same thing: sound throughout the entire movie, video frame gets stuck around halfway. Then I procured another copy of the original movie from a friend... same thing. I'm running out of ideas.

I have noticed two weird properties on the results though: each time I try to re-encode from the same file the frame seems to get stuck in a different location of the movie; and two, the resulting MP4 file size is way too small for a normal BD encode (1GB vs at least 8 normally) depite having sound and a stuck picture the entire movie.

Are these normal results from selecting the wrong playlists? Maybe AnyDVD is providing the wrong playlist?

Thanks for any further suggestions.

well bad discs do come in batches. It could be that both of you have a copy of the movie that plays fine but is not fine to rip/shrink

Sounds a lot like a problem I had once upon a time. It was a bad reading drive. I no longer use that drive for ripping discs. I only playback in real time now. I refuse to throw away a working-ish drive
I would get a stuck frame at the exact same spot. Audio would continue. Ripped with a new LG drive, problem gone.

My thanks to you both. It is very much appreciated.

[rusty666]

[rusty666]

Not sure. I'm working on it now.

Hello all. I hate to ask again, but I was wondering if anyone else was having problems importing mkv files and re-encoding them to 720p BD5s. I don't believe that it is my system, but it would be nice to know for sure that I'm not crazier than previously thought. Thanks!

As an aside, is there any way to make an older version of BD Rebuilder work again once you get the expired notice from said version?

I am using the import function to bring in an mkv. The mkv is encoded at 1080p. I am selecting the option to reduce it to 720p, and using BD5 as the output. I have done this many, many times with 100% success (speaking of, thanks for the excellent program!).

Once the 3D functionality was added to BD Rebuilder though, every time I attempt this conversion, I get an AVCHD with perfect audio, but only a gray screen for the video.

To try to debug this on my own, I re-ran the conversion with an older version of BD Rebuilder (45.05). It worked as expected, and the AVCHD came out fine. Doing it again (exactly the same way) in the newer version (46.07 at the time, and again with 46.14 now) yielded the gray screen result.

I believe that I have tracked the problem down to the new version of tsMuxeR.

I understand that most everyone is working on the new functionality of 3D, and Quick-Play, but I was hoping I could get someone to check out and see if there was a way to fix the previous functionality. I have been using multiAVCHD now for my conversions (which works), but for the vast majority of my needs, BD Rebuilder is the superior program.

Thanks, and thanks again for such a great program.

Fair enough. I thought since 2-pass mode worked fine this couldn't have been an issue. Keep up the great work.

No rush; just good to know that you have not deleted it from your agenda. Thanks.

Ordered a new drive! Hoping that's it... thanks.

Yeppers! I've been there, haaahaa! I had a huge collection of drives. Just because a Write Chip stop functioning the Read chip is doing fine... I found that; there is a point to where enough is enough, evolution IS a good thing. Snicker, except for Cinavia. I own some older BD players now. I don't care enough about 3D and all the Netflix and YouTube programs the new players have. My Computer handles all that.

As for the DivX/XviD..mmmm, I hadn't even considered that with all the iPhone, BD, and MKV from BD testing I've been doing.

Which leads into a question...I wondered before. When I ripped my "Hunger Games" (first movie) a while ago, with Menus but (personally selected) Extras blanked, that produced a BD which doesn't have jitters like the original disc. JD, have you...or....is there a way to fix that? I, remember reading on the AnyDVD (HD) fora that it has something to do the the Copy Protection being removed...I Think! It's been a while. Is BD-RB and the new TsMuxer able to, repair (I guess?) that??
I know it affects all movies broken into multi-parts which is why I use MKV for those. It would be sweet to use my disc backup that has the original menus. Thanks.

That feeling when you spend quite a lot of money to upgrade both Xeon CPUs of your current encoding rig... only to realize that your much cheaper rig encodes MVC at 10x the speed of your dual-Xeon, thanks to Intel QuickSync.

;D

That was it! Thanks for the heads up... I could have gone crazy trying to figure that out....

Out of curiosity, was it a lite-on drive?

I shouldn't talk though. One of my LG's quit burning reliably, fairly early on. Still reads good though.

I'm on my 3rd LG Drive in the last 3 years. Admittedly there is probably no user who give a drive more stress... but 3 drives? Unfortunately my local choice is limited to LG. On this last one I bought the extended warranty. Best Buy is going to have to buy my next one.

I recall purchasing a warranty on the WH12LS39. It's not showing in the purchase history. But it's been over 2yrs. Perhaps that's why. In any case, I got my moneys worth Oddly, I seem to recall it being a 3yr warranty :S If they were the typical price of a DVD drive, I wouldn't worry about it. But they're not

Oh, I see. I bought the warranty through a third party
