Tips for x265 newbie
Posted: Tue Jan 09, 2018 9:42 pm
I would like to try x265 as the encoder instead of my usual choice of x264.
I have been tempted by the stunning result of some Star Trek Discovery HEVC X265 6CH files I have watched recently. The quality is amazing but the file size is even more surprising.
So, with this is mind, what command line options should I try to reproduce the same result?
Here is my usual command line...
...thanks for your help!
