Issues with ISO Copies

[sac130e]

Been usinf DVDFab for years and have had much success with BD copies (SD never worked right). The SD copies would always have artifacts across the screen (like red/white small boxes across entire screen; more visible in bright or dark pictures). So I only copied the BD movies since this never happened, until now.

Now all the BD ISO copies are showing the same artifacts across the screen, making the movie unwatchable. Nothing has changed in the hardware area since the beginning.

Process is: Copy BD/SD on PC with a LG BD player; Copy the ISO out to my HP server; then stream from the server thru a Dune player out to my Mits HDTV. Always had issues with the SD coping/playing correctly, but never the BD.

Kinda at a loss here for whats causing the issue. Have over 400 BD on server that took a long time to copy/move. Now the older BD that where there for a couple years still display fine, but anything within the last 6 months is now showing the artifacts.

I am hoping someone else has seen this or can offer some solutions. I hate to have to go back to digging thru 400+ movies in my collection, popping the disk in and watching it. Was sole reason I got DVDFab and server..for streaming.

You are copying from an LG Player? Do you mean an LG Blu-ray drive? What happens if you play one of these images on the PC you make them on with DVDFab Media Player or some other local player software?

OK, just made a new copy of Prometheus BD and it plays perfectly off the PC HD. Even transfered it to an external HD and played fine from there on the PC.
Put the HD into the Dune player and crap. So this takes the server out of the equation as a problem. So its between the Dune player, receiver and TV.

I will take the receiver out of the equation next and hook the Dune player straight to the TV. I have pictures showing the artifacts, but unable to upload them here, too big (2mb jpeg).

OK, that makes sense now. Sounds like the stream is being corrupted somewhere in the chain or the bitrate may be too high for something. Are you just looping it through the receiver? Possibly a bad cable somewhere.

[sac130e]

The receiver is on and passes the video and HD audio to the set.
But this issue with the BD being bad just started (always been an issue with SD). Older BD that have had for years still work fine. Have changed cable out recently, so don't think thats an issue.

Could there be settings in the AVR that could cause issues with streaming?
Or even in the Dune player? Seems odd that this only effects SD's and the recently added BD iso's, not the older ones.

It is an odd problem indeed. Stranger still that previous BDs work when the much lower bitrate SDs did not. I am assuming that you are making these ISOs with DVDFab and that they contain all the IFO/BUP/VOB files for a valid DVD-Video and that the ones made from Blu-rays are equally compliant and made by Blu-ray Copy in DVDFab.

Problem solved...there are 2 settings on the Dune player for BD enhancement that are enabled at default that was causing the issue. Once I disabled those setting, picture perfect now.

Thx for the help
