BD Rebuilder v0.61.13

Although this is still a work in progress its really quite effective for backing up BD movies. As of you yet I have not encountered a single movie that I couldnt back up with BD RB and thats quite a few successes. Ive encountered an issue here and there but I was able to resolve everyone of them with a little quick view of the structure, a little analysis, and a couple of setting changes.

A quick note: The reason that jdobbs set older versions to automatically disable is to prevent people who have errors with them from posting those errors and asking for assistance. BD RB has been verified to work with both 32 bit and 34bit versions of Vista and Win7 so if youre experiencing an error of some sort then there is another factor interfering.

I gave 4 stars because it is still a work in progress.

Success once again with v0.31.07, just bought, ripped and shrunk Rambo2008 to 22.8GB. Gorgeous!! Will transfer to 1.5tb external for play through my WD HD live media player.. <br/> <br/>O.G. CpTHOOK

Sorry Guys!! Forgot to mention... I'm running a Vista x64 quad Q6700 machine with 6gbRAM <br/> <br/>O.G. CpTHOOK

Look here.... shrunk two BD's to BD-25 so far using .31.05(Inglorious Basterds), and .31.06(Sin City).. No problems. Followed the guide provided by AfterDawn, and both beta versions worked like clockwork. The only reason I upgraded to .31.06 is because the previous version prompted me to do so. Great Beta software!! .....so far <br/> <br/>O.G. CpTHOOK

Okay, this is a second follow up review. I have to agree with some who have used this app. You guys need to stop disabling your beta version of Bd Rebuilder. Period. I have tried multiple rips with a BD Rom and a BD RW, numerous reinstalls of ffdshow, avi synth as well as Hali Media Splitter and Nothing. Build .31.06 simply DOES NOT WORK with my Vista Rig. Luckily I have Ripbot264 to get me through. Please stop disabling your betas.

First off, Love the App. I've been using it for a long time. However, for some reason, Version .31.06 doesn't work on my Vista 64bit machine, but does on my Win 7 64bit rig. Until I updated to the latest version, all of the backups on my Vista rig worked fine. I'm in agreement with not Disabling your previous Beta Versions. I've just upgraded to a I7 on my Vista machine, and I can't even use it to it's fullest potential now. I've been either transfering the rips from my Vista to The Win 7, Via my network or just using Ripbot at the highest settings to backup the movie. Jobbs, keep up the good work.

Hi I just used re builder. <br/> it produces great picture quality however there seems to be an issue with audio syncing. I just copied transformers 2 to a single lay Blu ray <br/>and I find the sound is approximately 2-3 seconds behind in the whole film. Its a great program otherwise <br/>Just hope that audio syncing issue can be fixed.

the enigmaUS guy doesn`t know what he`s talking about, and nor does anyone else because his english is so bad! <br/> <br/>BD-RB is great software, all the beta versions I`ve used have worked perfectly.

0.27.01 worked. You 2 latest versions don't . It CAN'T decode new movies nor it can the once I successfully decoded with .0.27.01. I am tired of being nice about it. quit disabling your fucking beta versions, especially the ones that work! <br/>Get your shit together

My excellent rating is for the progress that's been made in the development of BD RB. As a backup method it is Good to excellent already. <br/> <br/>BD RB works just fine for me already but in time it will get better. I've been using it since its first release, and; although it is still beta software its rate of progress has been remarkable. I was an early adopter of DVD RB back when it had to overcome a lot of issues such as dealing with interleaves and multi-angles, and in time that happened. Then jdobbs began broadening its features for more advanced users and I enjoyed most of them at one time or another. What we have today is a stable mature method of DVD backup, but time goes on and along came High Definition. <br/> <br/>A group of us began playfully ribbing jdobbs to develop a blu-ray backup equivalent of DVD RB, and he candidly informed us that he had already started work on it. The ribbing of course then proceeded to "can we try it," and after a short while he released it so that we could all help to improve it. Since then I would have say that the rate of improvement on this application is even faster than the development rate of DVD RB. Those of us who've made DVD RB our main DVD backup system know that in time BD RB will be the number one choice of serious blu-ray backup geeks. <br/> <br/>There are some who question jdobbs' motive for requesting donations in the development of BD RB. Here is a short answer to that which might provide some food for thought. Each time jdobbs is presented with an issue he has to analyze it, make a fix, and then test it. As you all know backing up a Blu-Ray movie can take considerable time which could in turn impede the rate of progress so imagine testing issues over and over. This to me suggests that not only does he require a fairly fast rig to accomplish the tasks, but he also requires more than one which costs money. He will have to test BD RB on a variety of systems as well so that he can discover the various tweaks in BD RB that will speed re-encoding while minimizing the cost to quality, and then there’s the procurement of blu-ray movies. <br/> <br/>Without going into detail, Blu-Ray movies can differ from each other in a number of ways that can require a testing of particular blu ray movies. BD RB can seem to be working perfectly for a large number of us until someone encounters a movie that requires jdobbs’ attention. The first sensible thing to do is to wait for another tester who’s also encountered the same issue. At this point jdobbs will have to legally acquire a copy for him to test with. Sometimes it turns out that the issue is no issue at all, but by then he has already dipped into his own pocked. If he finds an issue with a movie then be will have to do all the things that I described above in my previous paragraph. The last consideration is time, and I for one think that he deserves a little compensation for his unwavering efforts in developing these valued applications. I donated before he even released his first BD RB beta <br/> <br/>One small note! There is no reason for anyone to be posting their personal choices of an application here. If one should have a preference for another application then start a thread in the appropriate forum. If people are interested then they will come, if not then you have your answer. If your intention is just to spam the forum then in time you will have your answer. <br/>HLG

think about it:blueray shrink.does exactly that.i used this software many times to re-encode files ranging from 30-45gb and shrunk them to 25gb.great software!still in beta but very useful.
