Re: AppleTV Custom Presets - 0.9.4

Just a suggestion - It would be advantageous if, during everyone's first post on this thread (or every one of them), they list the string of options they are using. One of the main points of confusion in the last AppleTV (post psy-RDO) thread, was having to hunt around to find out what a poster was ...

Re: Necessary feedback on the forums (Got a gripe? Keep it here)

My only complaint was no .9.4 announcement thread at the top of each forum heading. It's hard to rehash where to send donations, moan about how you'll lose a customer over some change, and generally stir the pot without those. Thanks for nothing.

Re: AppleTV Advanced Settings (Post PsyRDO)

Speed's not an issue with me. I typically start an encode of three to four movies, drink a handbrake or two, pass out urinating through my neighbor's mail slot, and wake up to find them finished. It all balances out. It's a yin/yang thing.

Re: AppleTV Advanced Settings (Post PsyRDO)

Just out of curiousity, when vidjock posted his settings, his final line is psy-rd=1.0,0.3. But when Dynaflash copy and pasted it, the final line is psyrd=1.0,0.2. Any idea why? And which is it?

Re: [SVN 2907] Ripped disk returns "No Valid Source" on load

Not to excuse Geezerbutt from taking quite awhile, but going through a divorce and having your (expletive) of an ex-wife wind up with your computers does tend to put a damper on things. Not that I'd know.... That's one bridge I'm hoping never to cross. If the argument ever gets too big, I'll just le...

Re: [SVN 2907] Ripped disk returns "No Valid Source" on load

Not only is Rip-it the problem, but another word of warning. If this arises, and you turn off libdvdnav off and it then recognizes the track, check the total time of the film when the encode is completed. It will be anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes. Try watch "Spies Like Us" wh...

Re: Enabling B-Frames and Packed Bitsttream in AVIs

There are actually 2000 year old stone carvings that were recently unearthed in Egypt showing quite clearly groups of worshipers kneeling before RHester's ignorance. Thus the usage of the term legendary. However, they were desperate to losslessly convert from Hieroglyphics to the much more widely su...

Re: Enabling B-Frames and Packed Bitsttream in AVIs

While most people agree rhester's ignorance is amazing (in some circles it has been reported to be legendary), about AVI he is correct. :lol: It gets tiring when the only argument I see on any forum that bolsters AVI's usefulness is 'sharing'. If 'sharing' is your only requirement, Handbrake is not ...

No. EddyG was right. I enjoy cracking a good joke, but I was over the line. Truth be told, I was riding high on my fantasy football team, and had just gotten through trash talking the other guys in my league after a Vikings win (go Adrian Petersen). I might have had a little too much smack talk (and...

Motive for developement was not the point (and definitely not any inference of a hope for financial gain).

Handbrake alternatives (not that I am straying)

There was a recent post regarding a fellow who may have 'bought' a copy of Handbrake being sold by a less-than-honest fellow, and it got me thinking about some things. Not being a programmer or software developer, I am looking for some answers to some basic questions. 1)If Handbrake weren't availabl...
