Running FRIM to split MVC to stereo

[mmalto]

not sure on the expected duration so this may or may not be an actual issue. I have an m3 pro max and it's been "stuck" on "Running FRIM to split MVC to stereo." for over 12 hrs. I hate to cancel it if this is normal. any suggestions?

input: bd-to-avp --source Rogue\ One\ A\ Star\ Wars\ Story\ 3D.iso --output-root-folder .

I think it should take about an hour there. Maybe less on your machine. Do you have a different BD3D to test with? What does the created folder look like inside? The FRIM step should create a left and right log. What do you see in there?

I killed it:

It looks like those finished. Are you running off the internal drive or an external?

[cbusillo]

How long is that movie? The logs say it got to time index 02:13:57.24

[mmalto]

running off internal drive. that would be the exact length of the movie...

[cbusillo]

Is there any chance you are out of space?

[mmalto]

nope. 1tb hd with 800b free.

[cbusillo]

Do you have a different BD3D to test with? looking at the speeds of the decode in your logs, I would expect 2-3 hours max total.

ill try it again..

[cbusillo]

So success on movie two? Great. I haven't personally seen intermittent problems. It looks like your original movie was waiting for ffmpeg or FRIM to exit. Weird.

It seems like the second movie encoded pretty quick.

[mmalto]

yeah, 2nd one worked but it didn't rip the 3d so it's just flat. it's also odd in that it locks up 41s into the movie. maybe that's a bug with moon player. I started movie 1 and it's hung again. definitely should have been done by now. are you able to rip the 3d stream or just the 2d?

[cbusillo]

Sorry if it wasn't obvious, but moon player doesn't do MV-HEVC. The Files app will play it in 3d. I believe there are other apps too, but I don't remember off the time of my head. Cinema something maybe?

This will only rip the 3d stream. MV-HEVC should automatically downgrade to 2D for players that support HEVC.

Do you have the source BD for movie one?

That is so weird. Especially how it got further this time. I haven't had any inconsistencies like that reported. You can continue where you left off with the --start-stage COMBINE_TO_MV_HEVC flag.

Does that file exist in the temp folder? Does it play? Did you have the original source disc to try? The script can read directly from a disk with -source disc:0 (I believe that is the syntax).

It is failing on the step where it puts the 3D video together with the audio and subs.

[mmalto]

3rd time was the charm. you can mark this as resolved...

I changed the cmd line to this:

bd-to-avp --source r1.iso --output-root-folder ./r1

and it worked. I just forced a directory name instead of stating . for the output-root-folder. I also renamed the input .iso name to not have spaces in it. one of those things helped it move along.

thanks!

[mmalto]

unfortunately, I no longer have a br disc drive so I couldn't test ripping direct. im mad b/c I forgot to strip the black bars, so I guess I'll be redoing again.

[cbusillo]

Periods in the name SHOULD be stripped out. If you have time to test can you see if using . As the output root Caused the issue? If so I'll try to fix it. Since it creates a folder, I wouldn't expect that to be an issue... but you never know till you put it on the internet for others to try!

I'm glad you got it either way. Enjoy the video.
