[DiabloZoe]

So far the last movies I copied Robin Hood, Splice, Grown Ups, Expendables and Repomen will not play on PS3 the only one that does is Predators! Now they are all on the same kinda disc Optical Quantum, Im thinking I got a bad press but all the movies stated above play on my sammy 3600 bluray player, any ideas

It's my friends PS3 and it's hooked up to the Internet so I assume he has the newest update! But I will have to check!

What you should do is go into common settings of DVDFab and select A/V Codec to change all available options to software. Then you should download and install ImgBurn if you not already and configure it to work with DVDFab. Here is link on how to get DVDFab and ImgBurn to work together. Watch the youtube video http://forum.dvdfab.com/showpost.php?p=55&postcount=2 Also do not forget to set the AWS(automatic write speed) for ImgBurn

Thanks for the info, I have been using fab for quite a while! And have all the above set up like that! I burn all my discs at 2x speed with ImgBurn! So that is not the problem. Like I said All the movies I burned with all the same settings only Predators will play on the PS3 and they all play on the sammy!

Post your ImgBurn logs, I had no probs with the Expendables and predators playing back on my PS3 with firmware version 3.50

Hi, DiabloZoe,

Please give the latest version of DVDFab8.0.5.6 (http://www.dvdfab.com/download.htm) a try.

I have the same issues with 8.0.5.0.. Blu-ray copy.
A BD-50 to BD-25 copy that doesn't require re-encoding with Shrek 4 (main stream is 18gb luckily) works fine on the PS3. The way I read this, is that all the structures and everything are fine, and the burning engine (imgburn) is fine, the BDR blu-ray media (verbatim) is fine. The re-encoding engine has not been tested here.

A BD-50 to BD-25 copy of Ironman2 requires re-encoding (main stream is 30gb) (done with cuda), and the resulting disk does not work on PS3. Disc begins to load, PS3 tries to start it, then it comes up with an error "This is an invalid disc (80029906)". Any google search for that error comes up with a thousand pages listing dead drives. My drive isn't dead, I assure you. Every other DVD, DVD-rip and Blu-ray (and one other Blu-ray rip-- above) plays fine.
These same discs (I've tried this process 5 times) play fine on my PC with powerdvd (bluray version), but just not in the PS3. I have tried VSO direct burn, VSO iso image, IMGBurn direct burn and IMGburn ISO (burnt both with imgburn and Nero10). I've also grabbed the stream data, and injected that into a Nero10 BD-video image, and that fails the same way... pointing to a stream encoding problem.

I have not yet tried turning off cuda encoding/decoding. That is my next task. I have also tried direct ripping from bdrom disc, and ripping from hdd (with bdrom content copied to hdd).

However, something seems dicky with the re-encoding/transcoding engine for m2ts > m2ts streams (at least the cuda one, still testing the software one). The PS3 certainly doesn't like it at all.

best regards.

Latest reply from support said to retry with version 8.0.5.6. How about you start there.
