    Perfect. How come rebuilder cuts the video size down so much? Theres about one gig of wasted space on this dvd. Either way the quality is fantastic.

    Hmmm. I just skimmed through the chapters and after chapter 3 or so I get a problem. This is a capture of it...

    Do I have to do anything with the D2VAVS folder when burning?

    This wasnt a bad burn either as PowerDVD still shows the same results when I play from the IFO file.

    Not a thing, you're done with it. You need only concern yourself with the Video_TS folder, it's the one you're going to use to burn with.

    @f1drake: I'm not sure what happened with that frame, but it might be possible to fix it by re-encoding just that segment. You need to figure out which AVS file it is by watching them and guessing a little. Once you figure out which one it is you need to make a note of the filename. Open the file called REBUILDER.ECL and look for the filename. There's an example of what you're looking for at the bottom of this post. Notice that you need to start where it says [item] and on the next line is the name of the AVS file (minus the AVS extension). Copy everything until the next [item] line to a new text file and save it as whatever.ECL.

    Start CCE manually and select Open and then Project from the file menu. Browse to where you saved whatever.ECL and select it. Click the encode button and let it finish and then open DVD Rebuilder, load that project again, set it to 3 Click Mode, and click the Rebuild button. the entire project will be rebuilt again and you can check it out to see if it's taken care of.

    You also might want to skip the rebuild until you know if the problem is fixed. You can just watch the M2V file created by CCE to see if it's still there.

    When RB/CCE goes to work on a file, there seems to be three distinct steps. Which one is called the Rebuild, and what are the other 2 called?

    The 3 steps are Prepare, Encode, and Rebuild. If you switch to 3 click mode you can see separate buttons for each step.

    That's good info. I've been on the 1-click method from your guide ... and trying to master that. It looks like it's time to learn some more.

    I've been trying to get to the bottom of a #0003 buffer overflow error that happens at the very beginning of the Rebuild step. This happens 50% of the time with re-authored RemakePro files. I've tested non-authored Remake files, and they don't kick out. Also, the re-authored Remake files go through Shrink and DVD2One perfectly.

    My question is threefold. Since the re-authored files go through other transcoders, should I presume they are "good" files. And if so, is there a quicker way to troubleshoot the #0003 error with RB other than to process files for 3 hours only to find out they kick out with the #0003? And, are there any suggestions for troubleshooting this problem?

    Unfortunately that's something nobody's been completely able to pin down. Remake doesn't appear to be doing anything wrong and neither does Rebuilder, but sometimes people just get that error.

    Drake, I like to use burn express just below burning rom in the startsmart menu of Nero. Make sure you're clicked on DVD before opening(top right corner) and that you select your DVD burner and not CD burner.

    Click on DVD video files. Then open to your location of your rebuilder VIDEO_TS folder in a seperate window. Click and drag it's entire contents to the VIDEO_TS folder in burn express. Ignore AUDIO_TS, and hit next and then burn. Done.

    Burning rom works fine too I just think express is a little simpler and easier.

    My 3 steps go like this:
    prepare-about 15 to 20 minutes
    encode-about 3 hours
    rebuild-about 30 minutes

    Of course times will vary depending on your file length, this is a rough average.

    I saw your pic, are you trying again?

    Hey Doc, I swear it defies all logic, and everybody says it makes no difference, and I don't even begin to understand it, BUT since I have switched to CCE v 2.67 I have only had one problem with rebuilder and remake and that was MY fault in Remake. This is out of about 10 burns.

    I think I saw where you had tried both, did you get the same error in each?

    I beleive in my case the remake files caused the error when I didn't split the interleaved cells and when the same movie had the video manager files modified. Like yours, the files would work fine in other pograms.
    After splitting the INLV blocks I left the rest alone and it worked OK.
    All the other movies I was able to remake normally then use rebuilder and 2.67.
    So at this point I have had no movies that I couldn't remake and use rebuilder.

    Thanks. I'm having problems even with the old classics ... that don't have any angles or INLV's.

    Doc

    Have you ever taken the DareDevil test, with 12 angles/interleaves?

    I started out with that one ... and was immediately over my head!!! (This wasn't some kind of prank, was it?). I think I only found 4 angles on 1 strip, and 3 on another? So, I'm not sure how you are counting angles, but I have DD right here if you could make any suggestions?

    Doc, are you using 2.67 or 2.69 right now?

    I started with 2.67, and had the 50% problem. I read a post in another forum where a Remake Pro user had the #0003 error and it went away after he upgraded. So, i did, but it didn't help.

    I beleive if you use 2.67 then any remaining problems you have can be worked out by changing how you use DVDremake. Sometimes hiding some blocks can throw a wrench into DVDrebuilder. If you have time then try keeping all, then hide some and so on. Keep track of what kind of movies are causing the problems.

    If you have angles then just right click over the titles one at a time and click strip angles if available.

    Yeah Doc, I believe i would stick with 2.67 and go slow in remake, increase as you get more proficient.

    Some still say(who know a lot more than I do, btw) it makes no difference in CCE, I just know what seems to be working for me.
