![]() MeGUI allows to choose several, including qaac (based on Apple encoder) which is generally considered as the best currently available. If there's a DTS track, it makes sense to re-encode to AAC, but using a better encoder would be preferred. The included AAC encoder is not the best there is, and the size saving is too small (compared with the size reduction on the video side) to be worth the quality loss. (Goes to show that there's a fine line between software that is “idiot proof” and software showing proof that it was designed by idiots.)Īnd does this preset preserve the native audio track (DTS or AC3) or re-encode it ? If using Handbrake and the surround audio is AC3, better leave it that way. Since Handbrake is targeted at casual, not tech-savvy users, it should definitely detect that kind of mistake and issue a DON'T DO DAT warning. (I've read up to 50% but it seems exaggerated I've seen a few movies encoded in 720p in H.265 with a low bitrate, indeed the general quality was decent and could be considered satisfying by casual viewers, but it also produced ugly motion artifacts which I've never seen on low bitrate H.264 encodes.)ĭon't know enough about HDR to comment on this aspect.ĭoes this output a correct 23.976FPS framerate ? Haven't used Handbrake in a long while, but I've seen Handbrake-made encodes with stupid settings, for instance episodes of Columbo, originally shot on film and converted to NTSC 29.97FPS through telecine processing (if I'm not mistaken), which would require an IVTC processing before re-encoding as progressive, being instead encoded as progressive 29.97FPS, thus producing jerkiness and interlacing artifacts which can no longer be corrected at playback. Depending on who you ask, the expected efficiency improvement means that the same subjective quality should be obtained with a 20-30% reduction in bitrate. No, H.265 is presumably (add this adverb out of caution as I haven't seen unquestionable proof) more efficient than H.264 even for lower resolutions, it's just that (from what I could gather) it was designed for 4K+ resolutions first and foremost, so that's where it supposedly shines and vastly outperforms H.264 (again, I can only repeat what I read). Can I get the same quailty of the HQ 1080p H.264 preset to H.265 and how would I go about that? (Not meant to be taken badly, I am not a native English speaker.) I believe of all of my Blu-ray's are simple 1080p, so I would not have any HDR content by your "judgement". Scott Correction, I am using "HQ 576p25 Surround" preset for my DVD's if they are Swedish/European. You're not really gaining anything by making them 10bit in the re-encode except MAYBE smoothing out some possible banding that might occur in lower-bitrate re-encodings. Only 4k (UHD) Blurays may have it (though not all do).Īll your source discs are 8bit. It is not supported in the specs for either of them. H.265 certainly makes more sense for 4k/HDR, but much depends on how much time you mind encoding plus what playback systems you have. Look into IVTC to get true framerates for film-based material. P30? From DVDs (many of which are film-based) and Blurays (many more of which are film-based)? I discovered I had an account here, probably from asking about ancient media players or DVD region codes some years ago. Thank you in advance! Been wanting to post this in r/handbrake for months now, but I am never allowed in. ![]() I am kind of tech-savvy (developer), but not in this part of the jungle. I would appreciate if someone could guide me through this jungle. Recently, I also started to produce an alternate version using preset "H.2p30" as base configuration and then changing CRF to 20 which I thought would match the H.264 preset, but reading up on this I gather they don't translate.Īm I stupid to encode these 1080p Blu-ray's with H.265 8-bit? Does H.265 only matter for 4K and HDR content? How do I know if any of my 1080p Blu-ray's have HDR? I do not think I own any HDR-compliant monitor as of right now, but I will in the near future. This works fine and I think I am content with the quality produced. ![]() I rip the discs using MakeMKV and then encode the files using Handbrake with the "HQ 1080p30 Surround" preset with and with just a few changes: MKV container, encoder tune "Film" and choosing the subtitles I can understand. I am kind of a newbie at video encoding, but I've started ripping and encoding parts of my DVD and Blu-ray library. ![]()
