    happida, no you do not have to pay for it again, just use your purchase info from 2.69. The URL is in one of these threads dealing with RB/CCE, i think 6402 found it for 2.67, run a search of his messages in RB/CCE and you will find it. Then just go to that link. Make sure you have your purchase info, it will not let you load it without it.

    soph, yeah, i have both in 2 seperate folders also, that's what I told happida to do. I've got to run, I'll talk to ya later, have a good one.

    @bappida69... ...See below on how to download from Cinema Craft

    @Big-O... ...About the Batch mini-guide(FAQ #6). 'Giving credit where credit is due ... Sophocles was the first to get Batch to work (while you were vacationing). He then posted his method, which then worked for me. I added some detail to this so a first-timer would understand, Soph edited, and then I posted in the FAQ's a few days ago (along with a few other additions). I suspect that instructions on Batch mode will also get into vurbal's guide at some point.

    I see. It's a two-step process. Once you click on CCE Basic 2.69, you get to sign in with your SN and last 8 digits of the Lic Key. Then it takes you to the page with the older versions!!!

    Yes, I just downloaded it on the weekend because I have both 2.69 and 2.67 installed at the same time. I use 2.69 with RB and 2.67 with DVD2DVD-R.

    Hi all,

    Thanks for all the responses. I tried backing up a new movie over the weekend. The good news was that I did not face the Buffer Overflow Error. The DVD Rebuilder encoded completely and also rebuilt it. But here's the bad news. When I open the VIDEO_TS files, the sound is clear but the picture is all messed up. It has all different colors, but the sound is perfectly ok. I also burnt it to a RW to check on my DVD player as well. But the same problem as well.

    Any suggestions?? Is it some setting that messed up. Here's my set up:

    CCE Basic: 2.69.01.04
    Avisynth 2.54
    RB: 0.52

    Thanks!!

    An interesting problem and one that I’ve not experienced. Is there a reason you’re using RB .52? The latest version is .56. Open RB and check under options menu, AVS options, and make sure “ConvertToYUY2()” is checked.

    Just checked the options menu, AVS options, and make sure “ConvertToYUY2()” is checked. It is checked. As far as 0.52 goes, that was the version when I had downloaded it. I couldn't get it work so far and by this time, the new release is also out!!

    The whole encoding seems to be some kind of purple color. But sound is fine.

    It sounds like your very close. Did you put the mpeg2dec3dg.dll in the same folder as rebuilder?
    You might go to the avisynth folder and look in the plugins to see if the mpeg2dec3dg.dll is there.
    It would be good to try CCE basic 2.67 or even update to the latest, I think 2.69.1.10.

    Anyway it goes it would be good to synchronize the exact progams and settings to what others are using. That would make it easier to find the problem.

    There have been a lot of changes since 0.52...

    You are using DVD Decrypter to bring it down to hard disc, right? You also are pointing DVD-RB to the hard drive location and not the DVD? What you are describing is exactly what you'd see if you were trying to reencode a disc that is still encrypted.

    If the video can be encoded at all then there has to be some version of MPEG2DEC3 being used, so it's unlikely that's the problem. I've seen a few reports of people who seem to have problems with some version of CCE, where it does encode, but the results look like crap. Sometimes this appears to be solved by changing versions, either from CCE Basic to CCE SP (which doesn't make any sense to me) or from a trial to a full version (makes even less sense). I suspect, but can't say for sure, that these problems are actually either problems with files that other programs may have replaced, or even just Windows issues that we may never be able to figure out (certainly Microsoft isn't much help with such things).

    There are a couple of things I would try. First, open one of the AVS files in your working directory directly in a media player. If it looks fine then it's almost certainly a CCE problem. If it doesn't look fine I'd recommend uninstalling and reinstalling AviSynth. Also, if you've installed any other programs that use AviSynth (like DVD2DVDR, DVD2SVCD, or Gordian Knot) you should uninstall those. If you still have AviSynth problems after all that, it may be necessary to find any AviSynth related information in the registry (after uninstalling it) and remove them before reinstalling.

    If it's not an AviSynth problem, I have to think it may not be fixable without completely reinstalling Windows. I don't like telling people to try that just to evaluate a program, but unfortunately one of the hallmarks of Windows (especially XP) is that things often break for no apparent reason, and it's usually hard to even figure out what's broken, let alone how to fix it.

    Thanks for the response. Heres some info:

    (1) mpeg2dec3dg.dll is in the same folder as rebuilder.
    (2) The avisynth folder has mpeg2dec3dg.dll in the plugins
    (3) Used DVD Decrpter to rip into my hard drive. So theres no encryption.
    (4) By AVS files, are you meaning the source files? Those work well with a media player program. But the m2v files and the VIDEO_TS are the problematic files. I don't have other programs which use AviSynth.I will try to reinstall AviSynth and try it out as well.

    I wouldn't really call the AVS files the source files since the source is actually the original DVD that's been ripped to the hard drive. The AVS files are the AviSynth scripts that read the source files and framserve them to CCE. They're in the same directory as the M2V files and they end with an extension of AVS. If those are the files you're talking about then I'd say AviSynth isn't your problem, although reinstalling certainly shouldn't hurt anything.

    I have found that downloading a lot of different trial softwares, especially freewares, ultimately causes problems within my Win2k OS. I don't have any "go back" feature installed, and so I have come to realize that doing a periodic reformat/reinstall is just part of using a computer.

    For what it's worth, I use Basic CCE 2.69, RB .56, and AviSynth .54. I've needed to do 3 installations within the past 3 to 4 weeks, and all have worked flawlessly (2 for me, 1 for my son). It's always a challenge, and sometimes fun, to find a problem, but sometimes it just can't be done. If you've done everything right according to the guide, it may be time to look at a reinstall.

    What is the size of the TS folder contents.
    Did you start a fresh encode with an empty folder?

    It isn't a problem to solve but we're always happy to hear about successes.
    Thanks

    Definitely. A simple "thank you for your help" is always appreciated. If you can help out someone else later on that's even better.

    I had started on an empty folder. The original movie was 5.62 GB. When I started DVD RB, I chose just two audio tracks(there were three initially). After it was rebuilt, the TS folder was about 3.2 GB and the VIDEO_TS was avout 3.5 GB or so(it seemed to have the entire movie)

    Hmmm... something isn't right, mine ALWAYS come out about 4.3 to 4.4.

    I don't want to sound like a stuck record, but have you tried CCE 2.67, and did you update rebuilder?
