Jerky Video/Low Framerate

thepaintsaint

I'm using a trial of BluRay Ripper (trying before possibly buying), and all the rips I do of Band of Brothers go wrong. I can't help but think that my two problems are related.

First, most visibly, the video is jerky. It'll be smooth for about 1/3 second then jerky for 2/3 second. I've attempted different bit rates, and it does nothing. I've attempted to change the frame rate, but I can't (I assume it's locked for the trial). It's simply set to "Same as Source".

Which brings me to my second problem. Windows says under the Detailed tab of the file properties that the video is 23 fps. A BluRay, I know, is 60-120 fps. Somehow, "Same as Source" isn't the same as the source.

I'm thinking the video appears jerky because the human eye considers it to be smooth at 29 fps or more. However, speeding up and slowing down doesn't make sense biologically! :P Anyway, the sale on the software is almost up, and I'd love to get an explanation/fix soon... Thanks!

So, now the problem is changed... I decided to go with a different file format/codec, but have a new problem.

When I ripped a single chapter of video, it came out fine. But, now that I try to do all 9 chapters of the disc, it disappears. Only part of the title I told it give the file is there, and the file has no extension - and no size. However, I now have ~4GB less free space on the HDD. Can't find the file, even with "Show Hidden Files" enabled. But when I go to try it again, it says it's there in the same path/name, and asks if I want to replace it.

Attached is the screen shot. Below is the log.

Are you creating this file on a disk that is formatted as FAT32?

If so that could be part of your problem as FAT32 partitions only allow a max file size ~4Gb...

Augh... Problem solved. Found after lots of trial by error that it was the file name... I was including invalid characters.

Hi thepaintsaint
For your jerky video Open Fab click the Click the Green √ at top right corner of the DVD Fab screen, and open Common Settings > General >A/V Codec, put a check in Disable all GPU codes and make sure they are set to Software, restart Fab and try again.
Glad you found your other problem. :)
