I'm converting for the Xbox 360 so I already know my level's capped at 4.1.
However, I'd like to know, aside from that, how I can get the highest quality H.264 encode possible @ 1200-1600kbits. e.g. B-Frames and the like. A HandbrakeCLI script or a screenshot of HandbrakeGTK at max settings would be phenomenal. =3 Time is no object (I set encodes whenever I go to bed), I just want it to look as good as possible, and I don't know which H.264 options help and which ones don't.
Thank you for your time =3
handbrakegtk / handbrakeCLI maximum quality settings

the advanced x264 gui is there, but the advanced options dont appear to be passed along to the CLI command so therefore it doesnt work (as stated above)
and i personally use the DSQ preset (its like deus six quatre) or whatever, and it works pretty well.
the command line equivilant of it is:

HandBrakeCLI -i DVD -o ~/Movies/movie.mkv -e x264 -b 1600 -B 160 -R 48 -E ac3 -f mkv -x ref=5:mixed-refs:bframes=3:bime:weightb:b-rdo:b-pyramid:me=umh:subme=7:trellis=1:analyse=all:8x8dct:no-fast-pskip -m -p -2 -T]/quote]
Replace DVD with the path to the dvd, change the path that the movie saves to and what the movie is saved as, and your all set.
