Which resolution is best?
Posted: Tue Apr 05, 2011 11:04 am
Can someone explain to me how the Picture tab works? I would like to encode my PAL DVDs (720x576 w- aspect ratio = 16:9) to MKV but the Width cannot be changed in the Picture tab. I get the following options:
Anamorphic = None, W=720 max, H=304, modulus=16. I can increase the H value to 576 but the W is evaluated as 1344.
Resulting file is:
Anamorphic = Strict, W=720 max, H=304, Display size=1021x436.
Resulting file is:
Anamorphic = Loose, W=720 max, H=304 fixed, modulus=16, Display size=1011x432.
Resulting file is:
Anamorphic = Custom, W=720 max, H=576 max, modulus=16. I can set the Display width to 1920 which evaluates the PAR W=1920 and PAR H=720, Display size=1348x576. H then changes to 816.
Resulting file is:
Which should I use for best results and what would be the resulting resolution? Thanks.
