BD Rebuilder Beta - Bug Reports Only

Samurai Champloo (US). I must've gotten mixed up with playlist numbers when re-trying the encode. That means the issue was not limited to one particular playlist item. I'll do some further debugging by trying the same encode on another PC, one not running Vista.

update: Ran the same encode on a Win XP Pro SP3 32-bit. Same result, unfortunately:

Hello I'm trying to reencode the Sherlock Holmes blu-ray (region A) to a BD25, first there's an audio that I cannot select, it says it's DTS-Express, Stereo; I believe that is for the picture in picture track, well I can't select it, and when I select backup anyway, I get this:
[12:15:03] PHASE ONE, Encoding
- [12:15:03] Reencoding: VID_00181 (1 of 46)
- [12:15:03] Collecting video information

- Rate/Length: 23.976fps, 3,485 frames
- [12:15:03] Reencoding: VID_00181, Pass 1 of 1
- Encode failed. Retrying.
- Encode failed. Retrying.
- Reached retry limit. Aborting.
- FFDSHOW Revision: (3299)
[12:15:13] - Failed video encode, aborted

I tried before with an older 'revision' of FFDSHOW and didn't work either, but worked fine with another movie (NewMoon).

Any ideas?

It looks like you accidentally killed the audio encoding process because the last message wasn't an error, it was a status (30.5% complete).

DTS Express isn't supported yet because it cannot be demuxed/muxed by TSMUXER. It is the audio associated with PiP. Please post the entire log so I can also see what version of Windows and BD-RB you are using.

@colinhunt - Did a BD25 encode of all 3 Samurai Champloo Blurays (US) and it came out perfect no issues. I didn't do the BD-5/9.

OK... but I wasn't doing a BD5/9. I was trying to encode a single episode into a 1080p MKV using 0.33.2's new output mode. I'm sure a BD25 of Samurai Champloo would come out just fine... hang on, I did do a full backup of disc 1 to BD25 to see what the result looks like; I was a bit worried about the quality since cramming 270 minutes of 1080p (even if it's anime) onto BD25 didn't sound too good. I saw some weird artefacts in the backgrounds and bitrate dropped quite often below 10mbps. I wasn't happy with the quality.

Hi, just an aesthetic bug but... I find that if I untic automatic quality settings and tic ultra high quality then when I restart bd-rb there is no option for ultra high quality anymore however the config file still shows it as a 4. I'm running win 7 x64.

That was a mistake. "Ultra High Quality" was left over from long ago and shouldn't actually ever be visible. The value "QUALITY=4" was meant to only be available via hidden setting.

even if it could reencode the pip track would have no sound right?

Please run the INSPECT.EXE program included in the BD-RB folder and post the results. It appears your configuration isn't correct for VC-1.

In the past the default has been "High Quality". But with AUTOMATIC enabled, now it is variable.

Here are the results from Inspect.exe
- Windows Version: 6.0 [6002]
- AVISYNTH Version: 2.5.8.0, not recommended version
- HAALI Splitter: Isn't recommended version
- FFDSHOW: 3299, not recommended version
- FFDSHOW VC-1 set to "wmv9", Ok
- FFDSHOW MPEG2 set incorrectly: [5]
- FFDSHOW AVC set to "libavcodec": Ok
- BD Rebuilder v0.33.0.2, Ok
- X264: Ok
- AFTEN: Ok
- FAAC: Ok
- MP4BOX: Ok
- WAVI: Ok
- TSMUXER: Ok

I guess I should update AVISYNTH, Haali splitter and FFDSHOW
what's the recommended version?
thanks so much

[Ch3vr0n]

the recommended versions are the ones linked in the very first post of this topic. The ones that are linked in the installation instructions for BDRB

Samurai Champloo isn't the best source to be referancing though as its a 1080p up-convert not a true 1080p source for animation, I would check your rips if you are getting macro blocking as my encode was identical to the source i had, you may have a bad rip. Didn't think I would see anyone on here with this anime

Good luck

Dark Shikari suggested a fix, so I'll try to play with hddvdmux source later (tough thing to do, since the source is a complete mess).
