installed 4.0.0.38, found some problems:

Standard audio is not detected, it will always select all possible languages.
Audio is not manually selectable using an BD with episodes. I can select audio für the first one but trying the same on the others just opens explorer showing the BD content.
On .36 it crashed selecting audio on the second episode

Thanks I confirm the problem

Audio is not manually selectable using an BD with episodes. I can select audio für the first one but trying the same on the others just opens explorer showing the BD content.
On .36 it crashed selecting audio on the second episode

Can you tell me more of what you mean, and or post a screenshot? I cannot reproduce this issue, try if possible with 4.0.0.39.
Thanks,

Problem with audio tracks is now fixed in our new version 4.0.0.43

There is a bug in the 4.0.0.47 version (and before).

One language will be detected wrong - I'm not sure but maybe it is Norwegian?

On the main windows you can see 2 German audio tracks but only the first is valid - as you can see on the "advanced edit" screen.

The 2nd audio track has the German flag - but no "[deu]" .. and finally isn't German.

I've this issue on Harry Potter BR's 1, 4, 5 (not on 2 + 3).

However - maybe it's not a bug but a bad mastering? Not important ...

MediaInfo, VLC and VSO Player show original timing of film and not the cutted version!

I've remuxed a BR into a MKV and cutted away the end of the film (with BR Converter 4.0.0.47). The original film is 1:56:27 long and cutted it's 1:51:14.

[*] See enclosed screen shot of JRiver Media Center which shows the correct timing 1:51:14 when I start the film.
[*] VLC and VSO Player show the wrong timing 1:56:27 at the right bottom and both finally stop at 1:51:14 (end-of-file).

Mediainfo shows this from the cutted film - all durations are 1:56 which is not true (is this a meta tag entry?).

For me it looks like the wrong final timing information will be written into the MKV files.

Hint: I've remuxed all Harry Potter 1-6 and cutted away the end and all show the correct timing. Video codec is VC-1. Then I did it with this new BR - not VC-1 codec - and have the wrong results.

Any idea?

Screen shot of JRiver Media Center which shows the correct timing (I think calculated?).

UPDATE:

I've remuxed the edited into a M2TS - which shows 1:51:14 in MediaInfo. Then I've switched into the MKV profile and started again and then all entries in MediaPlayer also had 1:51:14. Mysterious that when I've started with MKV remux I've got the wrong timing. Have to retest tomorrow.

UPDATE 2:

Strange .. the 2nd time: I cutted another film at the end .. video runs until the cutted end but audio until the original end (5 minutes longer and video is black screen). Video in MediaInfo shows same length as audio. And funny VLC shows total running time 00:00 ? ... I'd the same problem yesterday and today again.

With 3.6.0.16 (but I'm sure .17 will not fix the problem) ...

DVD Converter hangs up during analyzing the music DVD http://www.discogs.com/Frankie-Goes-To- ... se/1367384 ... Start button always greyed out (can't be clicked anymore - waited over 2 hours ...).

When in preferences / chapters / Create on titleset per chapters ... is enabled.

This only happens with this music DVD. I've tried another music DVD (from Falco) - works.

See screen shot enclosed

When opening from the 'Files' menu - 'Load from Disk, Load from Blu-ray folder, Load from ISO File, or 'Exit' there is an extra yellow box that is displayed as well.

Also from Action/'Burn an already converted project' - After choosing the file the program crashes.

The yellow box hint will be fixed in the next version, but for the other problems you report here I cannot reproduce them.

I wonder if there is a problem with the output and therefore it doesn't load.
Can you convert a file (like only 2 minutes of it, by cutting out most of the movie in the advanced editor) and try again? Can you burn this conversion by going to Action/'Burn an already converted project'?

[sabre]

I made a short video file from the editor, however 'Burn an already converted project' didn't work from the file and crashed the program.

I then tried to convert a small selection to DVD and then try to use 'already converted...from a DVD/Blu-ray/AVCHD folder', but the conversion process stuck at 'Rendering Root Menu'.

[Claire]

thanks for testing, but it appears that the conversion of the small file doesnt even complete then it would be impossible for you to
use " 'already converted...from a DVD/Blu-ray/AVCHD folder' "

What if you do the conversion to avi format, and then use 'already converted...from a singer file',
or What if you do the conversion to DVD format, but before in the default (top) setttings for DVd output you select the menu type "no menu" ?

Do you see the burning window appear or not at all? I mean this one

[sabre]

That's what I meant that I was going to test from a DVD/Blu-ray/AVCHD, but the rendering process didn't finish. However, I have fixed the issue now.

I restored my computer from a system backup and that seemed to do it, no crashes. I tried with no menu and everything went fine and then with a menu and the rendering completes.

[Claire]

ok glad to hear it, thanks for reporting back.

Have you removed a lot of themes?

My preferred visual theme was Snow Leopard. I use 'Elegant' now.

A lot of them are gone and maybe there were too many before (over 100). Now there are 9.

@Echuir I confirm you cannot merge this way, but I've tested in 4.0.0.5, 4.0.0.41 and 4.0.0.60 and it doesn't appear as an option in any of these but is in 4.0.0.62 of ConvertXtoVideo, so I'm wondering of it was simply not added to Blu-Ray Converter as maybe not possible.

In the change log I found it in ConvertXtoVideo but not in Blu-ray Converter change log
