Muutokset v0.40.08 Beta - v0.40.09 Beta
- Changed default grayscale values for conversion of subtitles in ALTERNATE/DVD.
- Added checks for incompatible AnyDVD settings to inspect and error exit reporting.
- Corrected the type of DGDecNV field operation used when IVTC is enabled. This should correct audio sync issues with IVTC/DGDecNV/MPEG-2 pulldown combinations.
- Modified processing so that MULTIPROCESS is not used when the source that are to be processed for inverse telecining.
- Corrected an issue related to calculation of lead-in frames on splits.
- Corrected a problem in which the 720p/59.94 frame rate was incorrectly calculated.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r2184).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r2184).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.40.07 Beta - v0.40.08 Beta
- Made several improvements to the subtitle resizing routines to provide a more accurate representation of the original PGS when resizing video output.
- Corrected a bug that could cause subtitle resizing to fail under some rare circumstances.
- Added support for subtitle muxing in ALTERNATE output to MKV. This feature is enabled by adding a new hidden option MKV_MUXSUPS=1 to the INI file (see HIDDENOPTS.TXT). Note: This feature muxes .SUP files in Blu-ray format. SUP formatted subtitles are not supported in all MKV players. Please check your MKV player's specifications.
- Corrected a problem that could result in audio desynchronization when converting to PAL under certain circumstances.
- Added a new hidden option DISABLE_VIDEO_SLEEP. This will prevent video card sleep mode, and may be useful when running jobs overnight while using DGDecNV with some video cards.
- Corrected a problem in which subtitles created by TSMUXER from text-type sources failed to be muxed and resized properly into ALTERNATE/DVD output.
- Corrected an error in which adjusting for an audio delay would cause ALTERNATE/MKV multiplexing to fail and BD-RB to abort.
- Corrected a reporting error in which "Performing CRF prediction" is displayed in the log even when a fixed CRF is being applied (and not prediction is actually performed).
- Updated the included version of MKVMERGE.EXE to the latest release (v5.3.0.0).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.40.06 Beta - v0.40.07 Beta
- Made changes to prevent the need for .264 file concatenation following encode. The concatenation is now a part of the TSMUXER muxing. Should save 5-30 minutes per job.
- Modified the movie-only build routines so that a redundant intermediate video build is no longer needed. This should save 5-15 minutes per job.
- Corrected an error in which secondary video could be processed incorrectly when MULTIPROCESS is in effect.
- Corrected an issue that could cause iPod and iPad ALTERNATE types to be processed incorrectly when used in conjunction with MULTIPROCESS.
- Established a workaround related to handling of very small (< 1 sec) files that prevents certain anomalies in both DGDecNV and DirectShow. Can avoid certain "Timeout...I/P frame" messages in DGDecNV.
- Corrected an annoyance in which BD-RB would cause exit delay when aborted during a TSMUXER action.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.40.05 Beta - v0.40.06 Beta
- Corrected a bug introduced in v0.40.5 that could cause movie-only/alternate output to fail during final multiplexing.
- Corrected a bug related to implementation of multiprocessing and DGDecNV that could cause CRF encoding prediction to fail when the MULTIPROCESS paramater was asserted.
- Corrected an issue with MKV file output. By default the new MKVMERGE used header compression that may not be supported by some players. BD-RB now forces compression to "none" for maximum player compatibility.[v0.40.5]
- Corrected a issue in which BD-RB may configure DGDecNV incorrectly for MPEG-2 pulldown video that is not being IVTC'd. This could in some cases result in out-of-sync audio/video. [v0.40.5]
- Removed the hidden option FIX_CLPI as well as the associated code. It was only useful for old outdated versions of TSMUXER that are no longer are used.[v0.40.5]
- Put a limit of 4 into the automatic multiprocess value. This is to help prevent too many instances caused by hyperthreading "pretending" to be more processors than it really is.[v0.40.5]
- Corrected an error in which multiprocess splitting would fail in regions that do not use the same decimal notation (".") as is used in North America. [v0.40.5]
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.40.04 - v0.40.05 Beta
- Corrected an issue with MKV file output. By default the new MKVMERGE used header compression that may not be supported by some players. BD-RB now forces compression to "none" for maximum player compatibility.
- Corrected a issue in which BD-RB may configure DGDecNV incorrectly for MPEG-2 pulldown video that is not being IVTC'd. This could in some cases result in out-of-sync audio/video.

- Corrected an error in which multiprocess splitting would fail in regions that do not use the same decimal notation (".") as is used in North America.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.40.02 Beta - v0.40.02 Beta
- Added support for Neuron2's DGDecNV. Note that this software is not required for BD-RB to run, but it will likely speed encoding in most cases. DGDecNV requires a CUDA enabled video card and a license that can be obtained through a $15 donation. For more info and h/w requirements: http://www.neuron2.net/dgdecnv/dgdecnv.html
- Added code to make DGDecNV indexing execute concurrently with TSMUXER audio extraction. This should, in most cases, eliminate any additional time needed for the indexing. If problems occur however, concurrent indexing can be disabled through a new INDEX_WITH_EXTRACT hidden option. See HIDDENOPTS.TXT for more info.
- Corrected a bug that could result in a crash and the error "PredictAndEncode() 00006 XXXX" when MULTIPROCESS is active.
- Modified the log so the current date is shown as the job begins rather than the time-of-day.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r2164).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r2164).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.40.01 Beta - v0.40.02 Beta
- Corrected an issue introduced in v0.40.1 in which an error message appeared during muxing of streams containing secondary video.
- Made modifications to the algorithm used for multi-processing instance count selection.
- Changed the label used in INF files that logs the number of instances used during encoding to prevent confusion with that in the INI.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.39.07 Beta - v0.40.01 Beta
Muutokset v0.39.06 Beta - v0.39.07 Beta
- Corrected and AVS issue related to the use of true pulldown sources with the "IVTC_480i" hidden setting.
- Regressed default AFTEN.EXE to that prior to v0.39.5. This corrects issues on some systems.
- Modified audio encoding so that a second AFTEN version will be tried before encode failure is reported -- this is a workaround for certain incompatibilities in some AFTEN releases on different computers.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.39.05 Beta - v0.39.06 Beta
- Fixed an error in v0.39.5 that could cause a "Runtime Error 5" at startup.
- Added code to check and correct for leading M2TS file audio weirdness when building to movie-only from a multipart source.
Muutokset v0.39.04 Beta - v0.39.05 Beta
- Added code to check and correct for leading M2TS file audio weirdness when building to movie-only from a multipart source.
- Added a hidden option "BEEP_SOUNDFILE". This item can be set to the path of an alternate.WAV file to be used as the "Job Completion" beep. See HIDDENOPTS.TXT.
- Corrected an error in which the "keeping audio" messages are incorrectly printed for all streams when "KEEP_HD_AUDIO". The audio was processedcorrectly -- but was incorrectly reported in the status log.
- Corrected an issue in which some AVS settings may be set incorrectly when processing a non-480i source when the hidden flag "IVTC_480i" is set.
- Added new code to better prioritize playlists in determination of main feature.
- Modified menu identification routines with the intent of improving accuracy.
- Added code to check vbv-bufsize when vbv-maxrate has been modified (due large audio inclusion) and ensure the 1 sec buffer limit is always enforced.
- Corrected problems with filter prefixes that could cause incorrect application.
- Added a new filter prefix. An "s:" prefix tells BD Rebuilder to include this filter for secondary video. Note: When used the "s:" should be the first prefix listed.
- Added inclusion of chapters ALTERNATE/MKV file output. Chaptering can be disabled by using the new hidden option "MKV_CHAPTERS=0" (see HIDDENOPTS)
- Modified ALTERNATE rebuilding routines to save time when using single source (non-mulipart) sources by not performing the "PT 1" multiplexing.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r2120).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r2120).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.39.03 Beta - v0.39.04 Beta
- Improved the MKV output routines. Now multiple audio tracks will be reencoded and/or kept (as selected in the streams list).
- Added MP4 as a containter type for ALTERNATE output. Although previously allowed, it was limited to iPod and iPad specs. A new example format is included in the default output list. The MP4 container type allows multiple audio tracks with multiple channels to be included.
- Audio language flags are now included in MKV ALTERNATE output and MP4 ALTERNATE output.
- Modified the DTSX routines so that placeholders are no longer necessary. This eliminates some unlikely but possible negative impacts.
- Improved the status updating for certain types of actions.
- Corrected an error in which ALTERNATE/MKV output could incorrectly report an error and exit when no true error was actually present.
- Fixed issue in which intermediate MKV files may (rarely) incorrectly fail due to "warning" exit code.
- Added a new option to the ALTERNATE output dialog that allows removal of black borders (automatic cropping). This option is not enabled and does not apply to DVD output (for obvious reasons).
- Added code to check requirements and prevent reencoding when an AC3 source (or its core) does not require processing to meet target specs. Note: Some settings such as AUDIO_AMPLIFY, "Use 192Kbs for AC3...", and "Use 448Kbs for AC3..." will force reencoding.
- Corrected an issue in which manually blanking or unblanking a stream in edit mode was not updating the sizing tables. As a result, overall output sizing would be incorrect and could cause over or under sizing.
- Improved function of IVTC. Also corrected issue related ot IVTC on VC-1 sources.
- Added a new prefix for filter editing. By adding the "r:" prefix, BD-RB will add the specified filter after the resizing stage (rather than the default of before). Note: If using more than one prefix, the "r:" must be the last in the series.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.39.02 Beta - v0.39.03 Beta
- Corrected an issue in which under certain rare circumstances a main feature could be seen as a menu -and the feature may not be listed in the streams list on BD-25 or unwanted audio may not be removable.
- Corrected an error in experimental DTSX code that could cause M2TS files to not fall on proper aligned unit boundaries.
- Updated CLPI correction routine to modify the TS_recording_rate value after updates to the M2TS by experimental DTSX code.
- Fixed an issue related to arrival_time_stamp rollover that incorreclty set permission bits in packet headers (DTSX experimental code).
- Added a SETUP option to cause an audible "beep" when a job is complete.
- Added a feature in which batch mode will not overwrite existing output folders, but instead add a suffix to the output title.
- Added a new AUTO_TWOPASSONLY hidden option. By setting this value to "1" you can prevent the automatic quality selector from ever doing one pass ABR encoding.
- Regressed the included version of X264.EXE to a previous release (r2085) due to reported LAVF decoding issues.
- Regressed the included version of X264-64.EXE to a previous release (r2085) due to reported LAVF decoding issues.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.39.01 Beta - v0.39.02 Beta
- Updated SD to HD 1280x720 processing to keep the 23.976fps rate when inverse telecining is in effect rather than create a 59.94fps stream.
- Improved IVTC method for MPEG-2 sources.
- Added a hidden setting that will allow output of 480p @ 23.976fps on sources that were IVTC'd. Note: While this mode works on almost all players, it violates the BD standard and should only be used with that full knowledge. To enable set "SD_PROGRESSIVE=1" in the OPTIONS are of the INI/Config file.
- Corrected an issue in which telecined MPEG-2 sources may not always be IVTC'd when the IVTC option is selected.
- Corrected an issue that could, under very rare circumstances cause audio desynchronization on telecined sources.
- Corrected a rare instance in which the CLPI packet count variable could be wrong for menus that have been reencoded.
- Fixed an issue in which multipart DTS sources may not encode to AC3 correctly when movie-only output is selected. Rare but possible.
- Updated checks so secondary video will not be unnecessarily run through X264 when the hidden option "FORCE_NOENCODE" is set.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r2106).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r2106).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.38.09 Beta - v0.39.01 Beta
- Corrected and issue in which certain types of HDMV menus may not be flagged properly and as a result they may not be processed as such.
- Corrected an error in which selected LPCM audio sources from a multi-m2ts stream may cause AFTEN to fail during reencoding.
- Changed default for IVTC selection. Some common players appear to have playback difficulties with AVC using 3:2 pulldown, resulting in "jerkiness".
- Added additional code to prevent encoding and/or previewing failure on exceptionally small M2TS sources.
- Corrected a problem in which it may be possible for audio/pgs streams to be selected/deselected and the effect doesn't ripple through all related playlists via playlist siblings.
- Corrected an error in which angles that are a part of the main feature MPLS could, under certain circumstances be "quick encoded" rather than following the required criteria of the MPLS.
- Corrected an error in which angles that are a part of the main feature MPLS could under certain circumstances not be encoded -- and as a result might not match the coding type of the main stream.
- Added a new "Unblock Chapter Skip" feature to SETUP. This will get help you skip over those annoying trailers at the beginning of discs that force to to either watch or fast-forward through them (ughh).
- Corrected a long-standing issue in which selection or deselection of audio/subs could create issues in stream lists that contain more than 255 items.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r2074).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r2074).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.38.08 Beta - v0.38.09 Beta
- Corrected an error in which the wrong H.264 level could be used during encoding.
- IMPORTANT FIX. Corrected an error introduced in v0.38.5 in which M2TS referenced through subpaths many not be correctly retained -- especially noticed in full backups using streams with out-of-mux IGS streams. (v.0.38.8)
- Changed the executable name for BD Rebuilder to BDRB.EXE. This is to bypass issues in Norton 360 A/V detection (I guess only Norton knows why I would need to do this). (v0.38.8)
- Changed default settings so strict AVCHD is nowthe default. This is necessary to prevent unintended non-standard AVCHD output now that AC3 audio reencoding is no longer the default. encoding is no longer the default. (v0.38.7)
- Changed default VBV buffer sizing for BD-5 and BD-9 output. (v0.38.7)
- Fixed a continuing error in which the correct version of HAALI may show as "Incorrect" when using INSPECT on a 32 bit version of Windows. (v0.38.6)
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r2057).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r2057).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.38.04 Beta - v0.38.08 Beta
- IMPORTANT FIX. Corrected an error introduced in v0.38.5 in which M2TS referenced rough subpaths many not be correctly retained -- especially noticed in full backups using streams with out-of-mux IGS streams.
- Changed the executable name for BD Rebuilder to BDRB.EXE. This is to bypass issues in Norton 360 A/V detection (I guess only Norton knows why I would need to do this).
- Changed default settings so strict AVCHD is now the default. This is necessary to prevent unintended non-standard AVCHD output now that AC3 audio reencoding is no longer the default.encoding is no longer the default. (v0.38.7) Changed default VBV buffer sizing for BD-5 and BD-9 output. (v0.38.7)
- Fixed a continuing error in which the correct version of HAALI may show as "Incorrect" when using INSPECT on a 32 bit version of Windows.(v0.38.6)
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.38.03 Beta - v0.38.04 Beta
- Corrected an issue in which end-times might be incorrectly updated in an MPLS file for cases where partial CLPI/M2TS playback is referenced.
- Added code to handle non-standard 1080p/25 and 1080p/29.97 sources and use "--fake-interlaced" in the command line to make them compliant.
- Added a hidden option "CHECK_FFDSHOW". If set to "0" BD-RB will continue running even if no version of FFDSHOW is found. Anyone using this option must ensure appropriate alternate CODECs are installed, and bug reports will not be accepted when FFDSHOW has not been installed.
- Changed routines so that UNC pathnames can be used as a source (should make use with NAS and other network units more compatible).
- Added an additional quality setting for hidden AUTO_BIAS. Setting AUTO_BIAS=3, gives bias for even higher quality settings (lower speed) when "Automatic Quality Settings" is selected. See HIDDENOPTS.TXT for more details on AUTO_BIAS.
- Changed the default values so that DTS and AC3 are kept in their original format rather than being reencoding. That choice can be changed via the SETUP dialog.
- Completed testing on FFDSHOW rev 3882 and HAALI Mediasplitter version 1.11.96.14. These are now the recommended versions of these helper apps and can be downloaded from jdobbs.net. They are also now linked in the first post of the DOOM9 bug reporting thread.
- Made improvements that should improve accuracy of sizing.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r2008).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r2008).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.38.02 Beta - v0.38.03 Beta
- Corrected an error in which .CHP files could be created and never removed in the destination folder while previewing streams.
- Fixed an issue in subtitle end-times related to previously resized (via TSMUXER) subtitles.
- Changed the default setting for B_PYRAMID (see HIDDENOPTS.TXT) to disabled. While this should be support per standard, at least two standalone players appear to have difficulty with b-frame references.
- Corrected level settings associated with 720x480 or 576 secondary video streams.
- Added code to prevent redundant reencoding of secondary video streams when resuming after the encoding has previously been completed.
- Changed the recommended version of AVISYNTH to v2.58. This should solve reported audio sync issues on ALTERNATE DVD-5/9 output that can occur on certain discs. AVISYNTH v2.58 can be downloaded from here: http://www.jdobbs.net/freeware/Avisynth_258.exe
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.37.08 Beta - v0.38.02 Beta
- Changed the specified --vbv-maxrate on BD-25 backups to 32000 -- this has been reported to eliminate certain buffering issues. (v0.38.2)
- Corrected an error in which a stream that was referenced as non-angled in one MPLS was not being correctly updated if referenced later as an angle.
- Fixed an issue in which problems with a single DVD subtitle could cause the entire job to fail.
- Changed the default color for ALTERNATE/DVD subtitles to white and shades of gray.
- Modified IGS checks to prevent any part of the feature cannot be excluded from reencoding.
- Updated the DVD subtitle logic to handle certain types of graphic PGSs. This should also prevent errors in multiplexing those PGSs.
- Corrected an error in which DVD subtitles were not synched properly when ALTERNATE_PAL was in effect.
- Added code to prevent the combination of primary and secondary (PiP) video streams from exceeding the BD total video limit.
- Added additional checks to reduce vbv-maxrate if the combined total bitrate of all audio would put it above blu-ray maximums.
- Corrected an issue in which ALTERNATE movie-only output sizing could be dramatically off when using the two-pass target size selection.
- Updated the included version of DVDAUTHOR to version 7.0. This corrects "bad image" errors on certain types of graphic PGSs that were not supported in the previous version.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1995).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r1995).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.37.07 Beta - v0.37.08 Beta
- Corrected an issue in which resizing a source from 480i/29.97 to 720p would result in an TSMUXER "Non standard fps value" error during the remuxing.
- Developed new routines so resizing of subtitle streams is now done by BD-RB (rather than via TSMUMXER). This corrects several possible issues associated with resizing PGS streams.
- Corrected an issue in which opening a feature in movie-only mode that contains IGS in the main-movie stream could result in a "Selected Source is not BD Format" error.
- Rebuilt the algorithms for checking subtitle sources. This should eliminate the TSMUXER error "Unexpected byte" and failure that could sometimes occur while extracting audio/subs and resizing to 720p.
- Corrected an issue in movie-only mode in which "forced" subtitle (e.g. when foreign languages are spoken) were not supported during resizing.
- Added support for subtitles when outputting to ALTERNATE/DVD. Note that the conversion of the graphics and integration into the output stream adds approx 2 minutes to the overall job for each subtitle kept, so it is recommended you only select the subtitles you really want.
- Add a new hidden option "DVD_SUB_BACKGROUND". It lets you select the type of background you'd like for DVD output (see HIDDENOPTS.TXT).
- Add a new hidden option "DVD_SUB_COLOR". It lets you select the subtitle foreground color you'd like for DVD output (see HIDDENOPTS.TXT).
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1937).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r1936).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.37.06 Beta - v0.37.07 Beta
- Corrected an error in which framerate could be set incorrectly when outputting to DVD and one of the resizing options is selected.
- Changed default audio selection behavior so that a track will be kept (even when the language is not one that is selected) when it is the only audio track available. This behavior can be set to be disabled using the new "KEEP_SINGLE_AUDIO" hidden option (see HIDDENOPTS.TXT).
- Corrected a bug in which AVC sources may not be recognized as pulldown when appropriate when the 480p video type is set and can result in syncing issues. Especially useful on sources previously run thorugh BD-RB, TSMUXER,or multiAVCHD.
- Corrected an error in which DEINTERLACER_TYPE (hidden option) was not being read properly.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1924).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r1924).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.37.05 Beta - v0.37.06 Beta
- Corrected an bug in which 1080i sources could be incorrectly reencoded as 1080p.
- Fixed an error that could cause MKV encoding to fail due to blank maximum bitrate in the command line.
- Corrected an issue in which the resume function was not functioning properly due to the recent implementation of HD audio selection checks.
- Correct a bug in which selecting "192Kbs" audio output in DVD-5/9 output was not first doing a conversion to 2 channel of multichannel sources.
- Made several improvements in bitrate calculation and threshold checks.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1913).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r1913).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.37.04 Beta - v0.37.05 Beta
- Corrected an issue in which a scan of the source material might miss an audio/video time delta when PTS/DTS values were very large.
- Corrected an error that could cause error 2904 while outputting to ALTERNATE/DVD when the audio track has an offset detected.
- Updated DVD output so it exits completely rather than pausing at the end of play.
- Improved the methodology for prevention of sleep mode. It is now set/reset at the beginning/end of each full job rather than at the start/stop of each encode. Also changed settings so the video monitor sleep will not be blocked and it will act as set in the POWER options during encoding.
- Added a hidden setting (DISABLE_SLEEP=0) that can be used to prevent the sleep blocking function from executing.
- Corrected an issue in which a "too small" target size for MKV output could result in illegal or nonsensical bitrates.
- Corrected an error in which a large target size for MKV output could result in an overflow condition: PredictAndEncode() 00006 2820.
- Reversed the decision to make LAVF the default frame server. It appears to be slower on some systems. It can still be selected if desired from the SETUP dialog.
- Corrected a problem in which starting a job with "Keep HD Audio", and then stopping/resetting and restarting with that parameter changed (after audio extraction) could result in a failed audio encode. An improbable but possible scenario.
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r1900).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.37.01 Beta - v0.37.03 Beta
- Corrected an error in which pulldown could be incorrectly applied to a hybrid source.
- Fixed an error in which BFF (bottom field first) MPEG-2 sources may not be correctly identified.
- Corrected an error in which 24fps sources that were rebuilt for movie-only were not using the correct muxing rate and as a result did not have audio synchronization.
- Fixed a bug in which setting DEINTERLACE and IVTC concurrently would cause an incorrect AVS to be generated on a source with pulldown. As a result, a nonsensical framerate and audio sync problems would occur.
- Corrected the ALTERNATE/DVD output so it will properly handle 24fps sources.
- Changed actions in combinations of resizing SD to 1080p in combination with IVTC.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1867).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r1867).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.36.09 Beta - v0.37.01 Beta
- Added a routine that automatically checks for playlist links and, when changes are made to the audio or subtitle selection the change ripples through all members of a playlist. Please note that a single M2TS file can be a member of more than one playlist. For clarity, any entry that is a component of a multi-part playlist will be highlighted with a "*" in the BD-RB streams list (ex: "VID_00001*") on full backups.
- Added a new audio type for ALTERNATE MKV output. You can now set aType to keep the original audio intact (unchanged). Also added a new profile as an example ("MKV Container, 1920x1080, Intact Audio"). This allows AC3 as well as LPCM and DTS output to MKV.
- Added a new hidden option "ALTERNATE_PAL=n". When set to "1" while "Assume PAL for DVD Output" is selected an alternate method is used to convert FILM (23.976) sources. The framerate will be directly assumed to be 25fps (rather than using a conversion algorithm) and the audio will be adjusted to match the new timeline. This method can result in clearer video playback at the expense of some slight audio change. Note: This applies to DVD output only.
- Added code to prevent a system from going into SLEEP mode while BD-RB is executing.
- Corrected a bug in which DVD-5/9 ALTERNATE output combined with multiple audio tracks might combine to exceed the DVD maximum bitrate and buffering, and result in a "ERROR in attempt to mux (MPLEX)" error.
- Corrected an error in the sizing algoritm for DVD ALTERNATE output. Previously any changes in the framerate (e.g. PAL from NTSC or FILM) could result in oversizing/undersizing.
- Modified settings so that an SD source that is being inverse telecined and converted to 1080 will become 1080p @ 23.976fps rather than 1080i @ 29.97 via X264's pulldown mechanism.
- Corrected an issue in which BD-RB, under certain circumstances and during movie-only encoding might set the remux framerate incorrectly to NUL, and cause audio desynchronization.
- Corrected an error in which a 7.1 LPCM audio that is being converted to DD would fail causing BD-RB to "freeze" while attempting to reencode audio.
- Refined the MPEG-2 scan to better detect pulldown v.s. hybrid sources.
- Corrected a conditional decision so that LAVF will not be used when pulldown is detected in a source.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.36.06 Beta - v0.36.09 Beta
- Corrected a bug in v0.36.7 that could result in "ScanDirectory() 00013 2601" error.
- Corrected an issue in which a non-selectable audio stream in the firt position of the streams list in conjunction with "Limit to one track for each language" might result in no audion being selected by default.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.36.04 Beta - v0.36.06 Beta
- Corrected an error in which the .CHP files used with IVTC were not corrected to match the new framerate.
- Corrected an issue in which hybrid sources under certain circumstances in conjunction with the IVTC could cause incorrect framerate calculations.
- Added a SETUP option for converting SD sources to 1080. This can be useful in creating high quality backups of DVD to Blu-Ray or AVCHD.
- Added a SETUP option for converting 4:3 sources to 16:9. Caution: This option will clip the top and bottom of images in order to make the conversion, designed primarily for letterboxed 4:3 sources.
- Moved placement of filters in the AVS file so they occur before any BD-RB embedded deinterlacing, inverse telecining, or resizing.
- Changed the default deinterlacing mode for DECOMB to blend=false. Blending can be enabled by setting DEINTERLACE=2 in the config (INI) file.
- Corrected an error in which a source may incorrectly be kept intact even though "USE_FILTERS" was set.
- Updated the X264 command line so that the "--ref" parameter is set to the maximum for the specified output size. 1080 will use "--ref 4", while others (480, 576, and 720) will use "--ref 6". To disable and always use "--ref 4", use the hidden setting MAXIMIZE_REFS=0. [Update: v0.36.6] This feature only applies to "Highest Quality" mode in order to prevent slowdown in other modes. Also, the "--ref" parameter has been removed from the tweak restricted list.
- Modified the hidden option "WEIGHTP" so that "1" is now the default (ON), adding "--weightp 1" to the X264 command line. Setting it to "WEIGHTP=0" will result in "--weightp 0".
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1820).
- Updated the included version of X264-64.EXE to the latest release (r1820).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.36.03 Beta - v0.36.04 Beta
- Added code to assert the "fake-interlaced" switch in X264 when encoding interlaced sources when the "Use DECOMB filter..." SETUP option has been selected. This can improve encode quality.
- Added a new routine that does an extended scan prior to encoding MPEG-2 480i sources to detect hybrid video characteristics. This should clear up any remaining reports of audio sync problems on certain MPEG-2 sources.
- Updated the MKV ALTERNATE support so that audio can be reencoded to DD5.1 (prior to this release all audio was stereo). In order to activate you must set the bitrate in ALTERNATE.TXT to 384Kbs or higher (with audio type set to AC3). Two new examples have been included.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1788).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.35.01 Beta - v0.36.01 Beta
- Added the ability to create DVD backups of your blu-ray disc. The backup can be selected under the "Alternate Movie-Only Output" when movie- only mode is in effect. A ready-to-burn structure is created in the working folder. Subtitles are not supported, expect them in a future release.
- Added a new selection to the SETUP dialog called "Assume PAL for DVD Output". This auto-converts non-PAL sources to 25fps, 720x576 (for DVD output only).
- Increased the BD-25 target size value slightly to use more of available space.
- Corrected an issue in which stopping BD-RB during audio encoding would leave the WAVI and AFTEN processes running. As a result, restarting soon afterward could cause unpredictable anomalies in the audio, including sync and size issues.
- Changed an option in X264 command line that may have caused "crash" on certain types of sources.
- Added check to ensure original video is not kept intact when filter use is enabled.
- Removed inverse telecining from the streams menu. Too many people don't understand IVTC and are using it incorrectly. If you wish to IVTC, just select it in SETUP. If you want it back -- add the hidden value "IVTC_SELECTION=1" to the BD-RB configuration (INI) file.
- Added 720x480 and 720x576 as output options to Alternate output choices. Note that you cannot use this size for iPOD output as it is larger than the 640x480 maximum for that device.
- Corrected an error in which the frame rate was set incorrectly for MP4 output when using ALTERNATE output and IVTC was active.
- Fixed incorrect pass reporting during alternate output to MKV.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1745).
- Updated the included version of X264-54.EXE to the latest release (r1745).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.34.09 Beta - v0.34.10 Beta
- Corrected an error in which the SETUP dialog was not correctly initializing the "Keep only BDMV and CERTIFICATE folders" checkbox upon load.
- Created a workaround for an issue in which somepoorly authored multi-part sources that have aleading M2TS without audio can result in audio thatis out-of-sync on movie-only backups.
- Created a workaround for an issue in which some poorly authored multi-part sources that have a leading M2TS without subtitls can result in a movie-only backup in which subs do not exist.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.34.06 Beta - v0.34.07 Beta
- Fixed an error in which a secondary audio stream that was originally DD+ can be incorrectly flagged as DTSExpress in the CLPI file output.
- Corrected an error introduced in v0.34.05 that could result in "CreateAVS() 00000".
- Corrected an error that could result in a display of "Error 2501 SourceCheck() 00009".
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1688).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.34.02 Beta - v0.34.04 Beta
- Corrected an issue that would make BD-RB fail if the HIGH_PRIORITY option was selected.
- Corrected INPECT.EXE to not show the BD-RB version as outdated.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.32.07 Beta - v0.33.02 Beta
- Added a new option "Other Movie-Only Ouput" to the MODE menu. This allows you to create other types of files (rather than BD). The current choices are for iPOD and iPAD (.MP4) files) and MKV output, but I expect to add other choices in future releases. The output to alternate formats does not attempt to reach target sizes, but instead uses a fixed CRF which can be set via the "ALTCRF=n" hidden parameter. The default value for ALTCRF is 21.
- Added an "Automatic Quality Settings" option to the "Encoder Settings" menu. When selected, BD-RB will automatically make quality selections based upon the type and size of output. This option is meant to help avoid confusion caused by the numerous options. The default setting is now "ON".
- Changed default for for b-pyramid to "strict"
- Added some control code to prevent certain options from creating non-compliant streams.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1510).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.32.05 Beta - v0.32.07 Beta
- Added a new option to the "Output Options" menu. You can now select to output to an ISO file rather than burning directly to disc.Both options require ImgBurn to be installed on your computer in order to be enabled.
- Added a new hidden option."REMOVE_OUTPUT=1" added to the "[Options]" area of the config/ini file will instruct BD-RB to remove the output folder after a successful burn or write to ISO.It has no affect if one of the ImgBurn options isn't selected. If used in conjunction with "REMOVE_WORKFILES=1", virtually all temporary files are removed after successful encoding, rebuilding, and writing occurs. This can be handy for systems with limited disc space during BATCH operations See HIDDENOPTS.TXT for details and use with caution.
- Corrected an error in which changes in audio or subtitle selections were not being kept in batch mode.
- Changed the default setting for intermediate files. The MKV format was not compatible with AUD & NAL-HRD output,and was the cause of issues with Panasonic and PS3players when the NAL-HRD patch was used.The hidden MKV_INTERMEDIATE option still exists but its default hasbeen changed to "0" -- and NAL-HRD is now disabled whenit is manually set to "1".Many thanks to shon3i andDiscoboy for helping put this issue to bed.
- Changed the settings so that NAL-HRD is once again used in encodes.This should make the output more compliant with BD specs.
- Added Media Player Classic to the package.You can now review video by right clicking on it from the streams list.It helps you know what video is related to which streams.This feature is added in preparation for future stream editing options (like blanking streams or converting to "slideshow").
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1471 with nal-hrd patch).
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
Muutokset v0.31.02 Beta - v0.31.04 Beta
- Replaced the included X264.EXE with a different build. (0.31.04)
- Corrected an error in which could result in audio sync issues.This was related to the depth of search for pulldown in MPEG-2 and VC-1 sources.
- Updated the DirectShow configuration routine to check all FFDSHOW settings and execute if any are not set correctly.
- Added a new hidden parameter. "FORCE_NOENCODE=1" will tell BD Rebuilder to keep the origina video intact, no matter what size.Note that if you have "FORCE_ENCODE" set as well, encoding will take precedence.
- Added the "--nal-hrd" option to the X264 command line to provide better Blu-ray compatibility (as opposed to depending upon TSMUXER).
- Add a new hidden parameter. "WEIGHTP=n" enables or disables explicit weighted prediction on p-frames.Thisis to counter several reports of "blockiness" on systemsthat do not properly support it.Setting "WEIGHTP=1"will enable the feature, the default value is no set to"0" in order to avoid having to explain the issues. Note,however, that the reported issues are in the players --not the encoder or feature itself.
- Updated the included version of X264.EXE to the latest release (r1354).Also now use a version that includes the "--nal-hrd" patch.
- Corrected an error in which "576p" was not displayed properly in the streams list when detected.
- Other minor corrections and cosmetic fixes.
