Experiencing Difficulty Using DVD RB and CCE? If So, Then Ask Your Questions Here.

Most of the time it it just the opposite. The files existed on the original (empty there too) and DVD-RB is just making sure it is identical as much as possible. So Nero is reporting a compliance problem with something that was mastered on the original. I could easily delete those files and make Nero's message go away -- but I don't think it is a good idea.

 

The few times it happened, it was pretty much as jdobbs pointed out. The questionable structure came from the source. RB just encoded what was there. It's also strange you're getting so many compliance warnings. That comes to about 25 out of 100 backups having some sort of compliance differences from the norm. Even with the newer encryptions, there aren't that many DVDs with the structural encryption to be causing so many problems. I use CopyToDVD a lot and it is more sensitive to compliance requirements than Nero. Besides my classics collection I have a lot of the new movies I've purchased backed up as well. So, if there was that much of a situation with compliance warnings, I'm sure I'd have noticed.

 

@jdobbs

Guess so.

Excuse me, I don't normally use the ISO file mode, so I hadn't paid attention to the Decrypter being supported as a burner. [bold]Is there any chance of getting CopyToDVD as a supported burner to burn the Video_TS output for those of us who use File mode? [/bold] If you do it, you may need to add Nero as the Nero fans would feel slighted.

 

ok so I was completing a batch processing while listening to winamp, transferring stuff to different hard drives, using bittorrent and I just played my finished product and the DVD I was encoding at the time came out like crap. I guess that seems to be a lesson learned and I have 1.25 GB of RAM. From now on only batch processing at night when nobody uses the computer. Has this happened to anyone else?

 

If you can repeat the encode without interference and get normal quality then you don't have the resources to multitask while encoding. Processor power is the weakest link.
Even with a fast processor it is best to leave the machine alone during encodes.
The new Athlon 64 processors seem extra fast at encoding with CCE. 100 minutes per movie average for the big ones at 2.5 ghz. Sophocles was getting a lot of his movies into the 70 minute range. This could reduce to time spent for a reasonable cost.

 

Hi i am using DVD-RB V0.93 with CCE SP, i have been having problems with the output files. Whenever i try to encode a DVD that is larger than 7.4GB the end product after using DVD-RB is always 4.44GB which cannot be burnt because it is too large. This has happened on 3 movies so far and all are over 7.4GB, can anyone help me with this??
I never use to have this problem using earlier versions of the software.

Here is the rebuilder.ini file contents.

I would recomend the pro version since I haven't had any size problems but you can also add a line to your options area to modify the size a little. It looks pretty close to normal.
Like this.

quick question,
When RB states the % quality of the movie during phase 2. Does that mean the % reduction or the % the movie was reduced to that of the original?

Example: 52%.....from a 100 meaning 48 or does that mean 52% or the source period....

Thanks

 

I also had a question about the final sizing of the output. I have been experimenting with the TargetSectors option in the Rebuilder.ini file. It states that the largest a DVD5 can be is 2297888 and the defult for DVD-RB is 2236400. I modified that option for a backup to be about half-way between the two and got a sizing of 4.713GB. I then dropped the TargetSectors another 5% and got the same size. Dropped it another 5%, same thing again. How exactly does that setting work? Isn't that setting supposed to have a direct correlation to the total output size. I was also using 4 passes on each run just to make sure.

 

Movie issue....
"Kung Fu Hustle"

Hangs 84.7% of the way through phase 2. Tried several times and hangs at the same point every time.

So far this is the only movie, I've had an issue with using RB.

What could be the problem? I used DVD Decrpt along with AnyDVD running in the background to remove all possibilites.....

Could this be a new form of encryption?

 

The most likely cause is a system that has stability problems. CCE is especially sensitive to overclocking. The second most likely cause would be the use of AVISYNTH v2.5.6 -- that package is still in testing status and is not ready for primetime. Anyone using DVD-RGB should stick with the only currently "approved" version of 2.5.5/

 

You are probably using OPV. OPV can only predict to the nearest Q factor -- which would size the same throughout a range.

 

Jdobbs,
In regards to your reply for my "Kung fu hustle" problem, why would other backups that I tried after the fail of KFH, still work without any issues.
Seem to me that is was an issue with RB and that specific movie.

I'm sure I'm using avisynth 2.5.

And I haven't OC'ed.

I just finished a bachup of KungFu Hustle with DVDrebuilder Pro with no problems. So rebuilder is unlikely to be a problem. I used 1.0 Rc5.

Does it stop at the rebuild phase or during CCE.

 

It stopped during phase 2 (CCE)....at the same part 3 times.

I un-installed avsynth and reinstalled a fresh version. I'm in the process of RB Kung fu hustle now. I will report back with my results.

 

But CCE is running when it stops, right? By "2.5" to you mean "2.5.5"? Because the problem version is also "2.5" -- it is "2.5.6".

 

Ok,
This was my 4 go at it. I reinstalled Avisynth 2.55 ( I was using the right version but reinstalled it anyway.)

It stopped once gain at 84.7%.
"creating MV2 for VTS_04 segment 1"

This is the path....C:\KUNG FU RB\D2VAVS\V04000100001002.m2v

It completely stops.
I have to abort in order to shut down RB.

It's weird because it only is doing this for this particular movie.
I'm going to see if I can delete the VTS_04 segment completely, since I think it's an extra.

I've also notice that the program is hung but still runing, the cpu temps are as if it's still under load even though it isn't doing anything....
well here goes...
I'm going to delete the segement and try again.

 

What version of Rebuilder are you using and what are the system specs.

 

RB version .93

Athlon 64 3000+
1 gig RM
6800GT
160 GB HD....
Antec truepower 430
NEC DVDRW

 

How large is the source file you have for input and how much free space is left on the hard drive? Do you have the output set for an ISO file?
