DVD Rebuilder 0.93 PRO Undersize problem

andy

jdobbs,

I just tried v0.93 PRO with a series disk (Everybody loves Raymond Season 3 Disk 2) and the result came out very undersized. Just wanted to let you know.

Djuby, what encoder are you using... do you have quot;Steal space from Extrasquot; or quot;Half D1quot; on??

Fishman0919,

I am using CCE SP 2.70.02. No quot;Steal space from extrasquot; or quot;Half D1quot; enabled.

I set dvdrebuilder to do a complete FULL copy with the exception of DTS and lang subtitles.

Original: Primus Hallucino Genetics
size: 7.662 gig

Post dvdrebuilder size 3.387 gig

No movie only selections, No steal space %, No half D1 or half size

I've been using it for a long time now, do a lot of episodic discs and I'm very aware of those settings.

Thanks in advance!!

Try in Hidden Options, CCETargetSectors=2260000. It's the safest value I found, it works for me in every movie to get the perfect size.

For more info on this hidden option, read the stickies.
Cheers.

I've been using the same settings for a very long time with Rebuilder. The only thing that changed from the last backup I made was the Rebuilder application version.

I am going to second this.  I just finished backing up GIJOE Season 1 Part 2 Disc 1.  It holds 8 episodes.  Only the 4th episode was actually re-encoded.  The other 7 were missing.  I am using CCE 2.70.something and I did have Movie and Menu only with a 3pass set.  I used one click mode and was trying out the new make iso feature.  Jdobbs, I love the new version.  Just wanted to let you know there may be a problem.  I used the Installer also.

**Removed my log file since it was irrelevant**

WHY do use quot;movie and Meny Onlyquot; when backing up an episodic disc???

When using this mode DVD-RB assumes the biggest VTS / episode to be the main movie.

And all the other episodes are blanked.

From your log:
- Reduction Level for DVD-5: 54.9%
- Overall Bitrate : 2,849Kbs
- Space for Video : 3,593,966KB
- Movie improvement from extra reduction = 55.9%
- Blanking all EXTRA Segments

I just tried it again with series disk and the problem was there again. I did not select any special treatment of the disk.Djuby

There have been reported some problems with v2.70 of CCE IIRC.

Maybe you could try v2.50 or 2.67?

From new 0.93

- Changed the quot;MPEG Standardquot; matrix so it is updated to what is generally considered more quot;standardquot; today. In order to update it, you can just delete the file quot;MPEG Standard.mtxquot; from the MATRIX directory under the DVD-RB installation path. DVD-RB will see it is missing and update it when next started.

If you use matrix Mpeg Standard, perhaps the new quot;MPEG Standardquot; matrix it causes undersize problem.

Tore,

I've been using 2.70.02 since it's out and never gave me a problem. I am doing a recode with v0.92 PRO right now. I'll post the result. The matrix used is the decoder default.

Djuby

The matrix used is the decoder default.

It is Encoder matrix default. For CCE is Mpeg Matrix Standard.

?

I don't know what I was thinking when I first tried this last night.  I ran it again overnight without movie and menu only.  Everything looks great now.  Sorry for the misinformation.

I just did the problem disk with v0.92 PRO and it came out perfect. No sizing problem whatsoever.

@jdobbs,

I am sending you the requested files.Djuby

Are the files from the 0.92 encode or the 0.93 encode?

Could you try it one more time with v0.93 and see if it repeats?  Is it the NTSC version?  Also, did the other discs in that series come out sized correctly?

@jdobbs,

The files are from v0.93 Pro encode. I did the disk with v0.92 PRO and size came out right. I'll try it again with v0.93 PRO. And yes this is the NTSC version of the series.
