The Arcsoft decoder in TMT decodes it but it isn't freeware so...

Could be a big problem, good luck.

Strange phenomenom each time I used the latest version of bdrebuilder (everything worked fine with the other one) and I used it twice : first with "Gandhi", second with "The professionals" : the video is 4/3 letterboxed
Here's what media info says of the converted bd :

Any idea what's going on (I guess there's no 4/3 option... So ?...)

Thanks (I use windows xp2)

Sorry I hadn't thought mediainfo was in French but you see the problem.

@jlriv

Hi!

Would you please explicitly state - What is the "strange phenomenon" you've encountered?

[Atak_Snajpera]

I think it should be 1440x1080 instead of 1920x1440

[jdobbs]

Is that the original or the BD-RB output? It is definitely not within standards if it is truly 1920x1440.

as i described in my post : the result is 4/3... not 16/9 as it should.

It is the bd output. The original is 1920*1080. And the result is a 4/3 letterboxed 2.35:1 movie instead of 16/9 letterboxed as it should. THe first time it happened I thought it was some trouble with the original movie.

So you're not talking about the pixel resolution at all?

nuthin...got confused

Tried that with failure as the result. Did I miss something else?

0.23 version problem

Why I select 25GB and final work only 7.4GB.

x264 mode. HQ Settings

Sorry my english

Thanks JDobbs. I used the custom size setting and set it to 19000 and it came up just shy of the max required for a BD-R.

Keep up the good work
Sensei

Edit: I was using 0.23.02 when i changed the custom value to see how it would come up.

Can you post the log from the encode? I would also like to see the CLPI file for the stream that was so odd.

[jdobbs]

I've updated the first post of this thread with a new release (v0.24.01) of BD Rebuilder. There have been significant changes in this version -- so treat it accordingly. The change are:

- Added code to increase output size prediction 
  accuracy.  A WARNING to those using custom sizes 
  in order to make "adjusted" output, -- you will 
  likely oversize/undersize.  The actual size of the 
  output should now be closer to that specified in 
  the selected target parameter. A special thanks to 
  lithiumus for his help in the sizing adjustments.
- Changed the default values for AC3.  Reencoding will
  now be done at 640Kbs for 5.1 (rather than 448Kbs) 
  and 224Kbs for 2.0 (rather than 192Kbs).  Also the
  setup dialog option has changed to enable 448Kbs as 
  a secondary option (previously 640Kbs).
- Fixed an inconsistency in the percentage reporting
  to the status bar when in minimized mode.
- Added a LOG entry when BD-RB can't find the X264
  window handle.  This is just to clearly identify if
  the 50% complete problem is a result of a failed
  attempt to retrieve the handle.
- Corrected a bug that could under certain conditions
  prevent playback of streams that had secondary video
  on the original disc.
- Added code to prevent failed encode on very small
  sources due to ridiculously low specified bitrate.
- Added an ETA field to the status display of the GUI
  that shows an estimate the time needed to complete
  the current encoding pass.
- Added a partial implementation of PiP rebuilds.  The 
  video should now be included on full backups.  Audio
  support is still in development.
- Changed the name of the INF file.  Previously the
  job status information (INF) was saved to a file
  called "BDREBUILDER.INF" in the destination folder.
  Now, to keep the information for debugging, etc. I
  have named it according to the source.
- Added an option to the SETUP dialog for automatic
  removal of the WORKFILES directory after rebuild.
  Warning:  Selecting this option removes all files
  required to perform another REBUILD in the event you
  decided to "tweak" the source slightly.  Use with
  caution.
- Added a "Shutdown after REBUILD" option under the
  FILE menu.  This will shutdown your computer at job
  completion (only if BD-RB has successfully completed 
  all its encode and rebuild steps). A warning/abort
  dialog gives the opportunity to abort the shutdown.
- Updated X264.EXE to a newer release (r1173).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.

Wow!! many new changes and features. Where do you find the time? I thank you for it!!
I have been having all successful backups on the previous versions, both full movie and movie only. I will try to keep up with you on my testing of this new version.

EDIT:
The need for either tsMuxer to support DTS Express or jdobbs to create his own muxer for BD-RB, or a free alternative to reencode DTS Express to Dolby Digital for the PIP option to be complete. And not even 7 months since your first release. I am impressed!!

Great work with the latest version

I have been using this AVS script to blank unwanted extras on some discs and it would be great if it could be included somehow and since its a clean static image it compresses extremely well and only requires a very tiny bitrate

I change the length to match the original so as not to upset chapter points etc

video = BlankClip(length=164356, width=1920 , height=1080 , fps=24000, fps_denominator=1001, color=$000000) 
audio = BlankClip(video, audio_rate=48000, stereo=true) 
AudioDub(video, audio) 
Subtitle("Video Removed", size=120 , align=5) 
ConvertToYV12()

I also include audio so it can be processed through wavi and aften to create a blank 128Kb 2.0 audio track if required

Hi I have one question, does this programs keeps the menus and everything?

Generally, it does when making a full backup. It only keeps the movie when doing Movie Only copies.

[jdobbs]

Yes. It can do a complete backup (including menus) to BD-5, BD-9, or BD-25. But it can also do "movie-only" backups.

[SurroundBoy]

All of my VC-1 sources seem to re-encode to 1920x1080 even though I always set the 720p resize. Any ideas?
