- Ability to cut at end or to apply lower bitrate to end credits
info about encoding on final ISO/disc: Not sure if this is within the spec, but if there is an area on the disc which will allow a text file to go un-noticed and not break spec, then it would be great to write an encode info text file with all the info about how this BD was encoded. For now the log file would probably be sufficient. But it would also be nice if the user could supply a movie title and their own comments that could be included in this file. The below suggested features are more final touch features and make the software easier to use rather then truly necessary. movie playlist and stream descriptions for each movie: I am thinking that the biggest sticking point may be for non-techie people to be able to decide which options to pick for main movie, or extras to remove, etc. I am thinking that for each title their would be some way for expert users to create XML file that identifies all these and then Rebuilder is able to load these based on a unique discID. This way the user sees audio streams identified as AC3 German, Directors Commentary with..., Actors Commentary. And streams as Main Movie, Unrated Cut, Making of, etc. Then in the options there is an URL that could be supplied to download hosted master versions of these. Or to point a directory where these are stored. ability to view/listen to streams to decide what to remove: similar to Nero Recode today where one can choose any stream and view it or scroll thru it quickly with the arrow keys. And ability to choose audio stream and listen to it. This feature might make the above unneccessary. |

if the option : "- Option to retain original HD Audio. DTS-HD, DTS Master, True-HD, LPCM, etc." would be really welcome,
I'd add the option : "Downconvert HD / Lossless Audio to DTS Full Rate", very often the LPCM audio is way too big Nik Last edited by mochevolete; 23rd January 2009 at 20:54. |

Ok I know that this is going to sound stupid to those of you who face greater than 10 hour reencodes, but if possible I would like to see a return to batch encoding. I figure that overnight and during the time that it takes me to get home from the real world I can easily do at least 3 to 4 BD movies depending on length.

Even that I am very happy with this beta program, this additional features would make it even better and faster.
1-Ability to choose encoders (for example, mpeg2 for menus and additional features, and h264 for main movie). 2-Different resolution options for each title and/or menu. 3-Ability to delete some titles. Thanks for the good work!!! |

It could be helpful to indicate in the log the type of encoder used for the original stream, e.g.
- [20:08:12] Collecting video information [00297] Video: 1920x1080, 29.970fps, VC-1 - Bitrate: 9,185 Kbs - [20:08:16] Reencoding: VID_00297, Pass 1 of 2 - [20:08:16] Reencoding: VID_00297, Pass 2 of 2 - Error [01:-1073741819] returned from encoder. Retrying. - Error [02:-1073741819] returned from encoder. Retrying. |

You can do movie only yourself no problem. Preperation to turn it into a Bluray compatible stream only takes a few minutes. just run the source EVOs through eac3to with no switches. Check what stream number corresponds to what you want in your bluray...
example... eac3to feature1.evo+feature2.evo 2: c:\film\video.vc1 3: c:\film\audio.ac3 Run tsmuxer and add the streams you extracted, then save as Bluray structure. Load the structure into BD-RB, sorted. |

I have used bd_rebuilder to convert several mkv files (first converted to blu ray format) in which the the video has been cropped to 1920 * 800. Inserting an addborders(0,140,0,140) into the video.avs file while x264 carries out the first pass has worked to set the video to the correct resolution. A facility in the program to add borders of a user defined size would be useful addition to this excellent program

So, jdobbs, how about it? If I'm not mistaken, the concept of BD-RB actually sort of grew out of an original request for precisely this feature, in this thread. |
