What kind of snags Are you planning on just having some program launch, write your own preview player or just embedding something like MPC. |

Not sure if this is good idea or not but I have seen tsmuxer doesn’t use more than one cpu core at given time. However today cpu have two to four cores. If tsmuxer instance is launched multiple time we can give each one different stream to extract. Also this would help with rebuilding for final output since we can build more than one stream at same time.

Don't remember in which version you had a very nice feature: BD showed the approximate bitrate the conversion would have once finished. Then you took it off. Would it be much of a hassle to add it again? Or it's still there hidden and I haven't seen it?

Hello jdobbs, as i alredy ask you here about Level 4.0 comilance in BD Rebulder, i want to elaborate this. Since x264 can't fully produce Blu-Ray compilant stream at level 4.1, according original Blu-Ray specification, encoding only and only with level 4.1 require 4 or more slices. Level 4.0 is full blu-ray compilant only thing is different is that max bitrate drop from 40000 to 24000. Since both level 4 and 4.1 can have max buffer on 30000, which mean max 30mbps peak, quality won't drop by wide margin. You current buffer setting (25000) can hurt quality more than difference between level 4 and 4.1. Anyway x264 as very powerfull and quality at level 4 will be same. Finaly we find settings that are 100% compilant, i think is smarter for near future until x264 not make slices encoding.
I suggest you to add some hidden option and use 100% blu-ray compilant settings in this mode such as Level 4 vbvmaxrate 24000 vbvbuffersize 30000 bframes=3 refs=4 no bpyramid no mixedrefs aud, nalhrd strems generated with 100% compilant settings will be more usefull for authoring programs such sonic scenarist and others. Buffer 30000 are good for DVD media aslo there is no reason to change it because is compilant to BD 5/9 unless use strict AVCHD specs. Thanks. Last edited by shon3i; 30th August 2009 at 17:23. |

@shon3i
I'm not trying to be confrontational, but I'd ask that you at least look at my BD-RB command lines before trying to correct them. The only downside to using Level 4.1 is the slice requirement -- and there is no known player that enforces that, so I made a decision to stick with it for the extra bitrate. I probably will decide to encode at Level 4.0 just so I can claim complete compliancy, but as of today it is a "much ado over nothing" argument that I've seen get much more attention than it's worth (IMHO). I'd also add just for clarification that: - Level 4.0 has a maximum rate of 25000 in High Profile (which is what BD uses), not 24000 - Level 4.1 has a maximum rate of 62500 in High Profile, the 40000 is a limitation of Blu-Ray, not the level - The refs 4 is driven by resolution. And is only applicable to 1080p, 720p and below can be 5 I would also add that there are other requirements for Blu-ray, such as keeping the GOP length (keyframe spacing) under 1 second (which by the way is one I've seen violated the most in other suggested settings). You also have to severely lower the maximum bitrate when writing to AVCHD or BD-5/9, because the spin speed of a DVD won't handle 25000. Last edited by jdobbs; 30th August 2009 at 22:12. |

I stand corrected on the 24000, I didn't realize the BD spec was different from the H.264 HiP/Level 4.0 spec (which is 25000). But, of course, I'm not using it as of right now so it really doesn't matter.
As for the other one, it pretty much substantiates exactly what I said. Last edited by jdobbs; 30th August 2009 at 23:01. |

Hi!
I set my PC mostly to standby when I am not using it. Imgburn has a nice option where one can set the Shutdown action to for example: Shutdown, Standby, Hibernate, Restart. Would be nice to see such an option in BD-RB. I mentioned already in the bug thread, but its more of a feature wish: a (hidden) option to not overwrite the VID_?????.avs files, if they already exist, would also be nice. Bye |
