Unable to use BD Info

[europeman]

I have tried 2 different movies.

I used BD Info to get the playlist. With Enchanted it does not play at all just a black/gray screen and the other movie TSMuxer gives me an error about wrong streams or something to that effect.

PLease help

A rundown of the process you used would be most helpful.

PLease help

First, make sure that AnyDVD HD is running in the background when you load the disk into BDInfo. BDInfo cannot correctly read the disk if it is not first decrypted so that is important.

Second, when BDInfo gives you what it thinks is the correct movie playlist and you load that into TsMuxer, you'll just want to verify in the stream viewer that you actually see the movie. It will be something like "VC1\MPEG-2 @4.1 1920:1080" or something similiar to that. You should also see some AC3 streams, possibly a DTSHD or other type of high def soundtrack stream. If you don't see some combination of these three, then most likely you do have the wrong playlist. I don't usually view all of the playlists in tsmuxer, so i don't know how far the other playlists deviate from what i just said.

However, based on my experience, BDInfo is usually spot on with the movie playlists so number 2 shouldn't be an issue for you (if you follow point 1 that is)

[europeman]

Bitstream exception. It does not have to be! Plase contact the application support team for more information.

As far as the steps I am open BD Info and browse to the folder with the rip. I then open TSMuxer and add the playlist into it and create blu ray disk. The latest thing I did was within BD Info scan the bit rate and the same thing happens.

Point BDInfo to the optical disk, not the folder. Again, make sure AnyDVD is running in the background.

I'm not sure how BDInfo reacts when pointed to a ripped (non-ISO) Blu Ray structure so i can't offer help on that. I'm pretty confident that if you pointed it to the Blu Ray disk (or ISO of a Blu Ray disk) then it would work as expected.

[fast eddie]

It doesn't matter if you use AnyDvd running in the background to remove the copy protection or you use another ripper to rip the entire Blu-Ray compliant disk to the hard drive.

The important thing is if you use BDinfo to find the playlist or the M2TS file or files that the BDMV FOLDER is what you load into BDinfo and that the BDMV FOLDER has been decrypted BEFORE you load it into BDinfo.

When successful, line one of BDinfo will ALWAYS be the primary movie only playlist with the associated movie only M2TS files associated with that playlist.

:agree:

[europeman]

Whether I use the ripped disk or the actual disk. I have used line 1 and it gives the error. Do I need to do something to prep it.

@europeman

Using the engineering SWAG (sciencetific wild ass guess) method of trying to find the problem why you can't load/run BDinfo.

I believe you are not getting the source disk copy protection removed, from whatever method you are using, thus causing the BDMV FOLDER still to have copy protection on it, and not load or run properly in BDinfo.

Once you have the BDMV FOLDER completely clean of protection it will load and run in BDinfo and you will be able to find the main movie PLAYLIST and M2TS files.

Recheck you procedure for removing the copy protection from your source Blu-ray compliant disk.

:D

[fast eddie]

@europeman

Here is another thought.

The author of BDinfo stated very strongly that the input file must be clean of copy protection before loading into BDinfo.

Try creating the cleaned version of BDMV FOLDER into a clean ISO IMAGE and then load that CLEANED IMAGE directly into Bdinfo and see if the image will load.

Using the SWAG method stated earlier, I don't think you are going to be able to create a non-clean BDMV FOLDER, to a non-clean ISO IMAGE, and then clean the ISO IMAGE and load into BDinfo.
:disagree:

[europeman]

I have disabled AnyDVD created an image and plays fine with PowerDVD. I have attempted to separate out the main video with and without anyDVD with no difference.

I do believe the copy protection has been removed otherwise the image would have not played correctly

If you create an image from the original disc with AnyDVD HD disabled then it will still have copy protection. Or are you saying you created an image from a folder with AnyDVD HD disabled?

[europeman]

I ripped it to a hard with AnyDVD, in fact did it twice. I attempted to use BDInfo with both AnyDVD enabled and disabled.

I cannot get BDInfo to find an image it seems to be only able to select directories and not files,

Am I missing something here. If you need anymore information I will be happy to provide.

This step by step should work for you:
1) Start up AnyDVDHD

2) Put Blu Ray disk in Blu Ray drive (you do have a Blu Ray drive, correct???)

3) Let AnyDVDHD scan the disk. It will only take a few seconds, but when it's done, a status screen should pop up with information detailing if it successfully decrypted the Blu Ray disk. If the screen doesn't pop up, then double click on the fox notification icon and select "Status". Note if AnyDVDHD successfully decrypted the disk. (You do have the high definition verson of AnyDVDHD, correct???)

4) Assuming that you do have the high def version of AnyDVDHD AND it successfully decrypted the disk, you can close the status screen (leave AnyDVDHD running however).

5) Fire up BDInfo and using the select button next to the BD Source input box, naviage to your Blu Ray disk. !!!This is important!!! Select the disk name and press okay. Why this is important is because when you select the disk, the folders that make up the disk will show (the disk structure will expand). Don't select any of these folders. Leave the disk name highligted so that BDInfo can scan the entire folder structure.

6) BDInfo after a few seconds, should list the largest playlist files in the playlist file box. The first one is usually the one with the movie/soundtrack files. Sometimes the first two playlist files will play the same file structure. In this case, still select the first one. Note this playlist number (something like 00001.mpls).

7) Having done this, you can now close BDInfo. That part is done.

8) Open TsMuxeR (remembering to keep AnyDVDHD running the entire time) and pressing the add button, navigate to you Blu Ray disk in your Blu Ray drive. Now, whereas before you only selected the disk name, this time when the disk structure expands, you will select the BDMV folder. Within that folder is the playlist folder. Within that folder are the playlist files. Select the playlist file that BDInfo said was the movie file.

9) After a second or two, TsMuxeR will show the requisite movie and sound files for that playlist. Go ahead and select the streams you want to keep. You can do this by unchecking the ones you don't or by deleting the ones you don't want so that they disappear from the list (Don't worry, the disk is okay, the files aren't actually deleted:o). It's my practice to keep only 3 files ,the movie file, first one on the list usually, the high definition file, and 1 subtitle file, called presentation file here (i might go deaf one day:confused:).

10) Once you do this, then select the "Create Blu Ray" radial button so that TsMuxeR can create a Blu Ray file structure. Don't change any other setting in the program. Everything else left at default seems to work just fine. I know others are doing funky things like playing with specific m2ts files and such, but for our beginner purposes, every other setting in TsMuxeR is set to default.

11) Anyway, once you've selected the "Create Blu Ray" radial button and selected where you want to save the new Blu Ray structure. By default, TsMuxeR selects the disk that you will copy the files from. Obviously, you can't write to there so you will need to select another location.

12) Once you've selected a location, now you are ready to let TsMuxeR do its thing. Press the "Start Muxing" button. This should take about 10 to 20 minutes or so depending on your Blu Ray drive speed and your cpu horsepower.

13) Once that's done, you will now have a blu ray structure at the location you chose. Open that folder up in the ISO program of your choice (I recommend ImageBurn) and make an ISO of the entire folder structure.

14) You can now mount this ISO using Virtual Clone Drive and play it in PowerDVD just like any other disk (First mount in VCD, then navigate to the Sheep Virtual drive to play the iso).

[europeman]

I did do one thing differently as I did it from the ripped complete movie file and not the actual disk.

I did not see the playlist file. for Example it might say xxx35xxx but when looking for the file it would not be displayed. Is it a hidden file?

did you rip the entire disc to hard drive or just the main movie file? The playlist files are in the playlist folder. I'd recommend following his instructions step by step as I've never done this before and tried it and his instructions work fine, I even did it using a folder on the hard drive and that worked too

[europeman]

I am not certain if they are playlist files or not. I select the top track run report and then use the specific tracks file listed in BDInfo. For example track 130 then 0-30 than 132 and 133. I believe those are mt2s files but not entirely certain.

I will attempt it following his exact direction this evening

I've also just done it with my copy of Enchanted (US) and it works perfectly ended up with a fully working Film and HD audio only BD folder.

I think this guide should be taken and made into a sticky as it is so easy to follow and works perfectly

If the movie is one large file,if it is many diferent files with different sizes and time lengths it will not work and it won't play nice with VC-1.I have tried many.I mean they work but the sound will always skip or something.Works great for single m2ts though.
Mark

[PrincipalityFusion]

I'll have to disagree with you on that one. Seamless branching titles fit the situation that you are talking about and BDInfo handles them just fine. The whole utility of BDInfo is to find the movie files by using the playlist files. There is only one playlist file that will tell you which m2ts files you should select, whether they be one or many.

I guarantee you are doing something wrong.

This is a known issue. TheTsMuxer does notthing to remove the end of file markers and overlaps on a seamless branched film. You've got to demux with EAC3TO (twice if there are *.GAPS files after the 1st pass). Then remux with TSMuxer.

This would be news to me. I've never had any issues with the movie only backups that i've made.

You may not ever notice actually. It depends on what you use for playback. Apparently the NMT hardware has issues with seamless branching titles done with TSRemuxer. (AVC I believe) PC's have no issue. The PS3 doesn't appear to, either. So, it completely depends on what you're playing it with as to whether you see the problem. Apparently TSMuxer has some issues at the join points. HOPEFULLY any tool Slysoft creates won't have this issue. ;)

Will this allow you to keep the menu intact or will just be the movie + audio on the disc??

[Bigrick]

no there is not a program at least i dont think that will do that yet but this procedure will let you keep just the movie and one audio file

[SamuriHL]

Will this allow you to keep the menu intact or will just be the movie + audio on the disc??

Nothing lets you keep the menu as of yet. In the next few months Slysoft will be releasing a tool that will eventually get that functionality but there is absolutely *NO* release date for when the tool is going to be released and menus are not on the first iteration spec list. I'm hoping they can add that for iteration 2 of that tools. For now I believe they're trying to mirror functionality given to us by tsmuxer and eac3to. Only easier to use. But this will get you a movie only + audio + presentation graphics if you wish.

Don't bet on it. There's a reason "CloneBD" doesn't exist yet. This is the first steps they are taking in that direction. They just asked a bunch of advanced users what they need in a basic level tool and we basically told them that we'd like to see TSMuxer and eac3to functionality rolled into a simple to use interface. That's what I call "iteration 1". :) That part will take them many weeks of hard work to get working before it's released. That will give us the basic functionality for making movie only copies we have now in one tool. The next "iteration" will HOPEFULLY add menu support but that's not been determined yet. I think what they'll do is once they release iteration 1 they'll have us all test the hell out of it and fix any bugs that come up. Once that's working and stable, they'll ask for opinion on features for the next release. Once the specs are nailed down, they'll go back to coding and many weeks later we'll get release 2. So, I would definitely *NOT* get your hopes up for anything at all "soon" and especially anything with menu support. I don't want to set any unrealistic expectations. I don't know Slysoft's plan but I can definitely tell you whatever it is will be drawn out over many months as what they're trying to build is *EXTREMELY* complicated.

Are you using BDinfo 051?
Are you using TSMUXER 188b? (from doom9)

Instead of loading the movie only PLAYLIST file into TSMUXER load the movie only associated M2TS file or files into TSMUXER.

After the source Blu-ray disk is ripped to the HARD DRIVE, load the BDMV folder into BDinfo.

Sometimes movie only in BDinfo 051 can have more than one version, like directors cut, camera angle 1, camera angle 2.

11) Anyway, once you've selected the "Create Blu Ray" radial button and selected where you want to save the new Blu Ray structure. By default, TsMuxeR selects the disk that you will copy the files from. Obviously, you can't write to there so you will need to select another location.

12) Once you've selected a location, now you are ready to let TsMuxeR do its thing. Press the "Start Muxing" button. This should take about 10 to 20 minutes or so depending on your Blu Ray drive speed and your cpu horsepower.

13) Once that's done, you will now have a blu ray structure at the location you chose. Open that folder up in the ISO program of your choice (I recommend ImageBurn) and make an ISO of the entire folder structure.

14) You can now mount this ISO using Virtual Clone Drive and play it in PowerDVD just like any other disk (First mount in VCD, then navigate to the Sheep Virtual drive to play the iso).

Thanks SO much for your instructions on this. I have a follow up question... When I go to add the playlist file into txmuxer I'm getting - "Can't find tsMuxer or depended library" I click ok then I get "Can't detect stream type. File name E:\BDMV\PLAYLIST\00100.mpls"

I do have anydvdhd running too.

Any idea what's going on here?

You're using XP? And you have the UDF 2.5 drivers installed? If not, yup, you'll get that error.

[SamuriHL]

Oh wait...worse yet. Do you have the tsmuxer.exe in the same directory as the tsMuxerGui.exe?? They're both quite necessary.

I'm using Vista.

I dowloaded from doom. When I extracted all files I noticed I have both txmuxer and txmuxergui in the folder. txmuxer doesn't open but the gui does.

Then you have other issues cause it works just fine for most of us. I have no idea what to tell you. You're sure you're opening the right playlist? The gui is just that...a front end. It's calling into the command line version to do all the work. What version of tsmuxer are you using?

File version 1.8.4.88

BDinfo is showing 00100mpls and that is the one I point txmuxer to.

This was the issue cuz I dragged gui out to desktop and left txmuxer in folder.:doh:

[SamuriHL]

LOL! :) It happens. Glad you got it figured out.

Quick follow up on this. I've tsmuxed ok now I'm trying to make iso with imgburn and I'm unsure what to choose as the destination. I've tried to make a blank folder to save it to but imgburn doesn't let me save it there. Where to you save it to?

[SamuriHL]

A blank folder?? What??? You just output the ISO file to wherever you want it. I totally don't follow what you're asking or having trouble with.
