Encoding Problems

[EPONA47]

Description of problem or question:
Menu box appearing on top of videos.


Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):
When I try to encode .VOB to .MP4 sometimes white box is on top of videos. It has texts: PAL DVD EDIT and Date/Time.
I recover those files with Isobuster then I encode them with handbrake because .VOB file takes so much space on my hard drive. It is like 0,99gt per video.


HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):

1.7.3


Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):

Windows 10


HandBrake Activity Log ***required*** (see How-to get an activity log)

Don't have any those logs but description of problem may help to solve it.
I think it happens because .VOB is segmented file to chapters. I think sometimes changing chapter makes that box appear there.

Any help available? I can send screenshot if needed.

Could you please post your HB logs, instructions can be found here:

I can explain more: I can't post activity log yet. I deleted all those. This not a movie DVD I am trying to encode. It is a DVD from DVD player. I recorded TV programs when I had TV. I did not finalize those discs so they won't work normally. 1st I have to recover them with IsoBuster. Then I encode them to .VOB to .mp4 .

ACK. I need advice: How to send screenshot to discussion? Do I upload it to host then put a link for it?

[rollin_eng]

Run an encode then post the logs.

[EPONA47]

Ok. I try that. One more Interesting find: If DVD is RW movie works without recovering. Now THAT is helluva odd thing.

Here is my Pastebin activity log link.

Could it be the subtitle which got burned in?

[07:07:23] Subtitle track 2 (id 0x2000bd) 'Unknown (VOBSUB)': 9 hits (9 forced)

[Rodeo314]

That seems possible, yes. It could be misdetected as a subtitle meant to cover dialogue in a foreign language due to the small number of subtitle packets and the fact that they're flagged as forced.

In the subtitle tab, you want to remove the Foreign Audio Search track.

I think problem is Menu Box appearing not those subtitles. At activity log there are few lines that explain / solve this problem:
libdvdread: Could not open input:
libdvdread: Can't open C:\Recovered Videos\Disc 17 for reading
libdvdread: Device C:\Recovered Videos\Disc 17 inaccessible, CSS authentication not available.
libdvdread: DVDOpenFilePath:findDVDFile /VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.IFO failed
libdvdnav: vm: vm: failed to read VIDEO_TS.IFO

I think recovering whole VIDEO_TS folder MIGHT help this annoying problem. I recover another disc and see what happens. Also I can provide that screenshot IF it helps.

Also try opening the DVD as a folder instead of opening individual VOB files.

[EPONA47]

I CAN'T open up DVD on my PC. It is not finalized so I need to use IsoBuster to recover it.

[rollin_eng]

Does isobuster give you the full disc?

[Ritsuka]

Did you try to disable the Foreign Audio Search?

[EPONA47]

MAJOR DEVELOPMENT: Encoding successful. I solved that problem with activity logs. I need to recover whole VIDEO_TS folder to get that DVD in proper format.
On that folder is files: VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB, VST_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_1.VOB and VTS_01_2.VOB.
So that is that and this problem is solved.
