HandBrake

File Size (MegaBytes) = Bitrate (Mbps) x Time (Sec) x .125 Be sure to include audio bitrate! Your 7 min. video was encoded at a higher Bitrate than your longer one. RTM if you do not understand why the same "settings" do mot give the same " bitrate," Going forward, please refer to and provide your e...

1920x1080 25p/50p and 30p/60p source works for BluRay if flagged as 50i / 60i. If the mastering was done properly, it should just be a flag and the content is actually progressive (no filtering needed). There are some discs where it's actually interlaced, unfortunately. Agreed. I have come across b...

1081 is an illogical storage dimension. Most players will just add a garbage line. Pad or strip to the nearest even number. 1080 is the most logical.

That said, did you try simply renaming .MOV to .MP4? It works more often than not.

all of the trials i have seen have been with a 5 minute maximum, is there a longer one with VideoRedo? Ive already installed/uninstalled a half dozen progs finding that out and that always makes me itchy,,, lol No, my VRD h264 trial had a five minute limit until I purchesed it. Is that not enough t...

With BD sources, it is rare to need decomb or deinterlace. Exceptions exist, but most BD sources are not interlaced to begin with. So you can disable those filters, and get some additional conversion speed. With most BluRay Movie source, that is correct. Disregarding Ultra BD, which is a newer spec...

Wonder why this option still is vacant. changing the font and font size are vital to the watching experience.

Not if one is producing a media file in his own geographic region for his own use. A student of languages, perhaps?

So, you are encouraged to download Handbrake for free; and,
Start your own thread with your encode logs if you have questions.
Again, your fair use missive is unnecessary.

You know, it makes no difference if they are instructional or whatever.
Either they are encrypted or they or not. Handbrake does not decrypt.
Spouting fair-use entitlements in a public forum raises suspicion.

In the meantime, you might run it through the trial of VideoRedo. Your cctv files are quite likely transport streams.

Make a video with stills in an editor.

DVD is PAL or NTSC Standard Definition.
You cannot turn them into HD. It's that simple.
That's why you cannot upsample them in Handbrake GUI.

If you are that far above file size, your settings are way above optimal .
It sounds like there is not so much motion detail in your film.
You are welcome to waste all the space you want, it won't do a bit of good.
"Optimal" means enough, but not too much. Make sense?

I think it is important to know that throwing more well-intentioned bits at an encode that is already optimal makes it, well, ... bigger. "Optimal" quality is casually thought of as being around 0.995 SSIM, often occurring around CRF 18-20 (no lower) at least in x264. Integrity is so good these days...

Search for "DVD Authoring" software.

A friend of mine just posted these tests on another forum. Posted without comment because they're not mine.

These are extremely low quality h263.
Normal preset x264-cpu will be plenty fast.

Good summation.
I would add that with crf and veryfast, I can get "acceptably fast" encoding with x264-cpu, but with measurably better quality than on-chip solutions. "Less bad" isn't in my production core values.

. Their has to be an order of the 3 hardware encoders from best to worst. There does? I won't speak for Woodstock, but I think the differences are trivial enough between the three to be inconsistent across sytems, settings, Bitrates, and video sources. There are plenty of tests around, some of them...

. I want to know which of the hardware encoders is the best at quality, compression and speed You didn't read or chose to ignore the correct answer, didn't you? . If quality and compression (smaller size) are your important criteria, the hardware encoders do not excel at those. Speed, they do very ...

It would be slower to encode with more ref frames.
Nvenc is optimized for speed, above quality I'm afraid.

Yes, talk to you there. Also, I wanted to remind that Handbrake GUI won't do vertical upscaling.

OIC
They are stingy with bandwidth, so no worries.
Your upload bitrates can stay below 10Mbps, so yes I suggest x264 over MC or Sony AVC.

Well, one would have to test that on a level playing field, which we did exhaustively in 2011.
At optimal settings (important!), x264 is measurably better than MC below 8-10 Mbps. At 12 Mbps, we couldn't measure or see anything definitive between the two.

*Note: Mainconcept defaults are not optimal.

You can render directly from Vegas to x264 using Happy Otter Script beta. The author of Vegas2Handbrake suggests you go the HO route, because the frameserver script hasn't been maintained in some time. Honestly though, you won't lose anything by doing it all in Vegas, as already suggested to you on ...

Sorry I guess this should question should probably go into devices and presets. I'll ask over there.

Isn't it a better question for Video Toolbox?
There's only so much you can do with that stuff, and Handbrake presets already have it more than covered.
