How to backup and convert Blu-ray to MP4 HD or MKV HD

[The Incantation]

Which brings me to my question:

• Why are there two black borders added scriptwise AddBorder(0,88,0,88) which I cannot remove, not even with editting job1.avs (the AddBorder line keeps coming back)?

I can be a bit more specific: the AddBorder line appears when you resize.

[blackwalker]

i forgot this:

when using RipBot264, in the audio profile i set 320kbs as bitrate,
but i had also 640kbs (if i'm not wrong).

1) Do i set it correct or was better 640kbs? or i have to select "x.x COPY STREM" for mkv files for better sound????

damn...i have a problem now after i install the "UDF.Reader.v2.5" on XP.
I cant see now the ext2/ext3 partition on my egreat media tank player....
maybe there is some conflit between these format?

i'm using a program, "Ext2 IFS 1.11" program to see the ext2
partition on the media player.

before installing the "UDF.Reader.v2.5" i was able to see these partitions,
now i cant...

2) somene can help me to see again the ext2 partition?

...sorry for my english and thx!!!

and this

hi again, someone can answer at last at my "1)" question on my previous
post pls?


for the "2)" question (if i dont find a solution) i can use my other internal HD with Vista installed to move the files to my media player.


i have another question, if someone is so kind to answer me

I'd like to know if these are the correct steps to burn a bly-ray disk
after extracting the main film from a blu-ray (without making a 1-1 copy):

1 - TsMuxer (to get only the main movie and the audio track of my language)
2 - Ripbot264, selecting "save as BLU-RAY DISC"
3 - Imgburn (or nero8) to burn to a new Bly-ray Disc

I mean...i'm still not so familiar with the bly-ray structure (DVD have only audio and video ts folders) so, the question is:

Is this correct?
at the end, i'll have a valid structure to burn on a Blu-ray disc?

thx for your time!

just a Up

cause i'm looking around but i didnt find a solution/answer to my questions!
tyvm!!

Dear Atak_Snajpera Hi and thanks for the program!
Only one question... I have Vista Pro with AMD dual 3.2 - mem 2gb - Ati 4670 - Vista codec pack and i have error in Denoise (unable fft3dgpu) why? Thanks.

Make sure that you have latest drivers installed for Ati 4670.

@The Incantation
Addborders are added for compatibility reasons. Blu-Ray standard accepts only 1920x1080 , 1280x720 , 720x576 , 720x480. If you don't like them you can always remove that line manualy and movie will be encoded without those borders.

[Vasilis M.]

Dear Atak_Snajpera, firstly thanks for your answer!
Yes i have the latest drivers on Ati! I need any trick (instal) to enable the fft3dgpu?

Ps. I have Vista Pro with AMD dual 3.2 - mem 2gb - Ati 4670 - Vista codec pack.

[blackwalker]

Dear Atak_Snajpera can you check if you have at last
an answer for my previous questions pls

about this one, i look around "A LOT" and i think the answer is "Yes"
at the end i'll have a valid blu-ray structure to burn on a bly-ray disk.
At last i'm 90% sure

about my other questions, i'm still checking on this and other forums.
thx! =)

Burn all content from .bluray folder using UDF 2.50 file system only

[blackwalker]

[Atak_Snajpera]

[blackwalker]

ty anyway for your GREAT work!

Hi there,

first of all thanks for this great tutorial, it really helped me a lot. I allready watched my first x264-encoded movie on my popcorn hour!
but now I have a little problem: the file a wanna make should have 2 audio streams. But at RipBot264 I can select just one Audio Stream. How can I achieve that? A similar problem: What do I have to do to make a mkv with 2 subtitles?

[Atak_Snajpera]

only one audio stream is supported at the moment. You can add multiple subtitles by clicking [...] next to 'subtitles'

You could add more audio streams and subtitles to your encoded video files using for example mkvmerge(mkv) and mp4muxer(mp4s). Extract custom streams from the blu-ray mt2s using tsmuxer.

well i make my first conversion from bly-ray to a dvd dual layer.
I see perfectly on my computer.
when i try to play with my blu ray player, a samsung BD-P1500, it say that
cannot play the disc!

The blu-ray structure that RipBot264 create is this one:

BDMV
------AUXDATA
------BACKUP
---------------BDJO
---------------CLIPINF (inside the dir i have: 00001.clpi)
---------------PLAYLIST (inside the dir i have: 00000.mpls)
---------------index.bdmv
---------------MovieObject.bdmv
------BDJO
------CLIPINF (inside the dir i have: 00001.clpi)
------JAR
------META
------PLAYLIST (inside the dir i have: 00000.mpls)
------STREAM (inside the dir i have: 00001.m2ts)
CERTIFICATE
------BACKUP
index.bdmv
MovieObject.bdmv

the structure is ok?

if "no", what is wrong with it?
if "yes", maybe my BD Player cannot play it?

ty again for your patience

Updated:

maybe my BD player dont play it because i use a Verbatim "DVD+ dual layer" ad not a "DVD- Dual layer"?
its strange because i played a rental film in DVD+ Layer yesterday and it work fine....

someone can help me?

tyvm!


UPDATED!
maybe i have to set "bitsetting DVD-ROM" to make it compatible!
i'll give it a try!



Can i do it using Imgburn or i have to use Nero? ty!

[blackwalker]

someone can tell me where i can set "bitsetting DVD-ROM" in Imgburn so
i can make +DVD Dual Layer compatible for my Bly ray player? pls!!

thx!!

[ron spencer]

in ImgBurn goto Mode-Build and choose the device tab

Now look where you can choose the number of copies (is 1 by default). Right beside to the right are 2 icons...choose the one at most right, the one that looks like a book. Click it and you will be able to change the booktype if your drive supports it.

[blackwalker]

tyvm ron spencer!
found it!

now i'm testing if my samsung BD-1500, using dvd-rom bitsetting,
will play my +dvd dual layer verbatim...

i hope
ty again

[blackwalker]

damn...dont work!

when i put the +dvd dual layer (verbatim) looks like the bly ray player (samsung BD-1500) was starting to load it but then it say
"impossible to play it"...

someone have any suggestion on what i can check?
(maybe i'm doing something wrong..)

thx!

[ron spencer]

Unfortunately alot of blu ray players do not support blu ray on +R DL. The manufacturers have been really crummy in telling you what they are compatibile with (some will not even play blank blu rays).

For example, my LG BH200, when I updated to the lastest firmware, stopped playing blue ray on +R DL and blank BR discs. So I called them and they said they removed that feature...stupid fools. Like that for alot of players. So I went back to older firmware.

I hate to say this, but I think you are out of luck...call the drive manufacturer and complain for a firmware update (assuming you burned it all ok in ImgBurn, that is, you choose UDF 2.50; but ImbBurn should choose this for you).

If you dragged all the file structure over and proper UDF was chosen, then your player will not play it....this is a hardware issue; again complain is all you can do.

Blu ray is REALLY BAD in this sense....with DVD, all players worked with blanked....crock really

ho well, ty for the info.
this really not a good news!

yes i burned with UDF 2.5.

i'll try to call the suport and see what they'll tell me.

what you mean with "blank BR discs"....new unburned BR disc?
if the answer is "Yes", i'll turn back the player to vendor "now" and i'll
change it, cause this is really absurd..!
maybe its better to switch to a PS3?

[Atak_Snajpera]

Yes! You should really switch to PS3! It plays everything without problems! At the moment it is the best blu-ray player. I have one at home.

I have Vista 32 bit + 4850 and I have no problems (I had also 1950 = ok) . I have also laptop with Vista 32 bit + x700 and no problems.

Ok I found it! I instal the fft3dgpu0.8.2a on AviSynth (plugin folder) and thats it! now working...

[ron spencer]

yes...I meant with blank Blue Ray discs I meant the ones you can burn on (udf 2.5).

Unfortunately the blu ray world is really a mess for consumers who want to burn their own movies from high def cameras....You really have no idea if a player will support it. Again this was an area where HD DVD was so much better. Sorry, but it is a crap shoot now for burned high def media in a player. If it does not work, send it back. I think most sonys will play such content on burned media.

But you are right...it is absurd....all of HD is absurd right now, which is why it is not selling.

[Mr. Miyagi]

Thanks to Baldrick for this great guide.

With my humble Quadcore q8200 i completed this guide in roughly 12 hours for a two hour movie. 1920x1080, one to one, no resizing.

1 Pass approx 17 fps
2 Pass approx 6 fps.

Thanks.

[blackwalker]

thx Atak_Snajpera
thx ron spencer

i try also using "-DVD single layer" but nothing...!
so its not a Dual Layer pr +/-R problem...its the samsung!! *sigh*

ho well, i think today i'll change it with a PS3
Does the PS3 support also the HD audio tracks?
humm...i'll check around the web!

have a good day!!!!!!!

[blackwalker]

got it!
..the PS3!!

and finally i was able to play my "1st" dvd dual layer from blu ray!
what can i say?

video and audio superb!!!

just one thing, too much "black" on all movies, but this is because
i still have a plasma (hitachi 1024x1024 so hd ready) and i play it
at 1080i and not in full hd and the contrast is not so much,
but maybe for christmas i'll buy a new full hd lcd, maybe a samsung series 6 or 7!

ho well, just an answer, i know that there is a program that i can use
to split a ".m2ts".

There is a tool to split files ".ts" ??
ty!
