Hello

First, thank you for this program. I have been reading through a hundred or so replies to this thread, and have not come across the problem that I have having...so I apologize if this has already come up.

I am having a problem with the movie "Mask of Zorro", but this problem occurred to a lesser degree with the new "Star Trek" Movie. The problem is that on the finished build of the movie that has been "shrunk" overlaid on the picture, like a ghost, is a, what can best be described as a film of two horizontal bands of large dark pixels that go across the top two-thirds, and bottom two-thirds of the movie.

It goes all the way through the entire movie of 'Mask of Zorro', and in two sections of "Star Trek". I used AnyDVD for ripping, and these "bands" are not on the ripped movie stored on my hard drive. I have used v.3402, v.3404, and v.3405, in both full backup and Movie only settings with the same results, in all three versions. This anomaly is only on the main movie and not on the extras when full backup was selected

Settings are High Speed Option (BD 25)
Burning to a 25gig BD
Custom Target Size 23750
No Video Encoding options selected under Setup



Any thoughts would be helpful

Haali and avisynth are just straight installs.
What works for me, is ffdshow settings:
video decoder/encoder configurations / codecs:
H.264/AVC = libavcodec
mpeg2 = libmpeg2
VC-1 = disabled
The rest of the settings I just use the default for ffdshow installation.
There may be other settings that will work, but these have yet to fail me!

I think Bd rebuilder have a lot of quality for extras, are there some parameters to reduce the quality of the extras and give to main movie?

Regards

Yes.
Select "Quicker Encode for Extras", and in the config file (File=>View/Edit Config File) insert in the [Options] section the line
QUICK_CRF=xx

xx indicating the crf at which the extras will be encoded (e.g.30)

I would also recommend to insert for this case
QUICK_USE_QUALITY=1

Movie only (1hr 49min) backup of Terminator 3 (US version) using BD-Rebuilder v0.31.05 (unmodified) and "Target Size BD-9" came out as 7.97GB.
Encoder settings were "High Quality" and "One Pass (CRF)". One audio (AUD_001) and one subtitle (PGS_001). System was Vista Home Premium 32bit

Unfortunately CRF is a "best guess" sizing algorithm based on samples of the source, and can never be completely exact. Possible over/undersizing is the risk you take for the time savings when it is selected.

From the CHANGES file:

- Implemented a one-pass CRF mode.  This estimates
  the CRF needed for the required size and reencodes
  using a single pass.  [...] it
  is possible you may get over/undersizing.

Thanks, I've already ripped with AnyDVD 6.6.0.3.

Really strange. I haven't seen anything remotely like this before. Are you using standard encoding settings (i.e. are you changing anything with the TWEAKS hidden options)? Is the X264 used the one that is included with BD-RB? Also, what quality setting are you using?

At first I thought it might be the playback codec until I saw the picture... but the blocking in the sliced areas is really odd.

Ice Age III is problematic and updated routines (6604) made a change compared to 6603.

Now 6607 is available since yesterday so you better NOT use an outdated 6603 version!

I'd done this one before -- but just ran it again to make sure some new problem wasn't occurring. It ran without issues. That means you must have something configured incorrectly. This can often happen if you've installed third party software that "play" with the settings without telling you (like Encoder Packs).

If it has a PES packet over 100Mb I can't imagine it being anything other than a bad rip... not sure there's anything that could be done for what appears to clearly be a bad source. That error, by the way, is being returned by TSMUXER.

Thank for the reply, No I have not tweaked anything. I am using the X264 that came with BD-RB. The quality setting is 'High Speep Option (BD-25)'

Here is a copy of the Config File:

[Options]
MODE=0
TARGET_SIZE=23450
AUTO_BURN=0
ENCODE_QUALITY=5
VERBOSE_STATUS=1
AUDIO_TO_KEEP=eng;
SUBS_TO_KEEP=eng;
SD_CONVERT=0
COLOR_BOOST=0
RESIZE_1080=0
DTS_REENCODE=0
AC3_REENCODE=0
AC3_640=1
KEEP_HD_AUDIO=1
AVCHD=0
REMOVE_WORKFILES=1
AUDIO_TRACK_LIMIT=0
SUBTITLE_TRACK_LIMIT=0
CUSTOM_TARGET_SIZE=23750
[Paths]
SOURCE_PATH=C:\TRANSFORMERS_2_D1_AC\
WORKING_PATH=C:\TRANSFORMERS SHRINK\

I am also using XP3 operating system.

I should mention, that I started having problems with the version 31.xx releases, but not problems with the version 30.xx. I dont know if this helps.

Please let me know if you need any more information from me

Thanks again

Ok thanks for the quick response, maybe anydvd isn't ripping it properly, though I have ripped it with different versions, I'm going to try ripping it with dvdfab and runnin git through again and seeing if that helps. Anyway thanks as always for your quick response, better support from someone making free beta software than big companies that suck huge dollars for bloated software. Thanks much!!

EDIT: Well dvdfab sucks, it can't even properly rip the movie.

@rippn

In light of the fact that you've tried two different discs and several different attempts with AnyDVd HD, you might want to try an out of the ordinary experiment that involves other-than-the standard (NOT using AnyDVDHD) ripping, as follows:

1) Use "MakeMKV" to rip the "Cars" BluRay disc. When the initial analysis has been completed, you'll be able to readily identify the main movie. UNcheck ALL titles other than the main movie title - And then click on the "+" to the left of the movie-only title to see all of the title's video, audio, and subtitles streams - and UNcheck those that you don't wish to keep). Then press "Start" and "MakeMKV" will rip your movie-only title.

2) Load the MKV file into "tsMuxeR" and select "BluRay". Click on start.

You should (as I did) now have a BluRay "movie-only" package that is perfectly acceptable to "BD-RB" - and will be properly processed.

[eTiMaGo]

I noticed something today, can't find any reference to it here, but does BD-Rebuilder tell TsMuxer to downmix DTS-HD to plain DTS?

I am asking this because, on many of my movies, when I play the original disc in any player, and use the "display" option of the player, it will correctly report DTS-HD. But, when I do this with the BD-rebuilder converted version of the movie, the player info only shows DTS.

In the BD-rebuilder settings, I confirm that I have always had it set up to keep HD audio, do not reencode DTS, etc, the way it should be to leave audio untouched.

So, what gives? it it just a remuxing-related glitch?

It depends on your output size and your settings. If you are outputting to BD-5 or BD-9 -- yes, because those discs aren't big enough to hold HD audio. If you are outputting to BD-25 and you have "Keep HD Audio for BD-25" selected, then the answer is "No" -- the audio remains completely untouched.
