Seamless Branching Disk Making

[nautilus7]

Nice! I'm willing to test TrueHD muxing if you like.

Hi,

ok, thanks, lets try, please write me to support@dvd-logic.com with topic "test true hd".

Best regards,
Valery Koval.

Hi Valery,

I tested the latest version of easybd that's supposed to fix several truehd and ac3 bugs, but unfortunately my problems persist (don't know if the bugs fixed were the same bugs I had, though).
I can't author a sigle disc, whether i select truehd audio or ac3. Every time I get "compiling project" message and several minutes after a "compilation finished" message. Every time the output is nothing, though. No file at all.

I have reported my issues before, in this thread, in doom9 and via mail as well and have sent samples.
I reinstalled easybd and cleared all program related files to exclude my system's fault.
I use x264 generated blu-ray compatible AVC streams and Dolby Media producer generated audio files.

Also, I did one last check, so I demuxed (with eac3to) a retail BD. Then I tried to mux again with easybd (only main movie, only video and one truehd audio track). Result was the same. Again, no output at all.

Hello nautilus7,

Have you checked the muxed maximum bit rate?
I once had a similar problem. The total bit rate was too high.
The default setting max. Bitrate in x264, for me MeGui, is 40 Mbit/s.
My optimal settings, average 20 Mbit/s / max. 24 Mbit/ s.
BD Video movies have a maximum data transfer rate of 54 Mbit/s, a maximum AV bitrate of 48 Mbit/s (both audio and video data).
Maybe this information helps.

I usually encode using this x264 command line:

x264 --crf 14 --b-adapt 2 --bframes 3 --ref 4 --deblock -3:-3 --partitions all --direct auto --me umh --merange 64 --subme 10 --aq-strength 1.2 --trellis 2 --psy-rd 0.80:0.00 --rc-lookahead 60 --qcomp 0.70 --b-pyramid strict --no-fast-pskip --level 4.1 --sar 1:1 "c:\encoding\input.avs" --output "c:\encoding\test.264" --keyint 24 --slices 4 --nal-hrd vbr --aud --vbv-maxrate 40000 --vbv-bufsize 30000 --colorprim "bt709" --transfer "bt709" --colormatrix "bt709" --bluray-compat (--open-gop)

Which is the proper way of producing blu-ray compatible streams with x264. If this is the cause of the problem, then it's a bug in easybd.

Nautilus7,

Yes, this stream is bd compatible.
you check this: --vbv-maxrate 40000, when your video stream has a peak bitrate 40.00 Mbit/s and the thd stream a peak bitrate 18.64 Mbit/s, the av bitrate is to high
i send it a test.264, encode with sorenson squeeze 8 and a mlp and ac3 file. i upload this with rapidshare

[nautilus7]

Anyway, i can't even mux stock streams from retail discs as described above.

Hi,

Please try delete all info files for your project before compilation:
"Main Menu - Options - Delete info files for the Project".

Best regards,
Valery Koval.

Hello nautilus7,

Here my test files, Trailer Harry Potter and the Halfblod Prinz, .264, .ac3 and .mlp

Hi,
as far as we could trace the bug it seams to be a .NET-framework-problem. EasyBD 2.2.2.0 highly recommend to have the .NET-framework 4 installed, otherwise it will result in an empty BDMV-folder.

In some cases users wont get an information to install .NET-framework 4 while starting the programm the first time - so please go to the microsoft-website, download and install the newest .NET-Framework:

this should solve the problem.

cheers
