I have found some x264 encode profiles online, but I am unable to match the settings when the video has been output from handbrake:
When setting cabac=1, the encoded file is cabac=0, for example.cabac=1 / ref=4 / deblock=0-1 / analyse=0x3:0x133 / me=umh / subme=10 / psy=1 / psy_rd=1.00:0.15 / mixed_ref=1 / me_range=24 / chroma_me=1 / trellis=2 / 8x8dct=1 / cqm=0 / deadzone=21,11 / fast_pskip=1 / chroma_qp_offset=-3 / threads=34 / lookahead_threads=2 / sliced_threads=0 / slices=4 / nr=0 / decimate=1 / interlaced=0 / bluray_compat=1 / constrained_intra=0 / bframes=3 / b_pyramid=1 / b_adapt=2 / b_bias=0 / direct=3 / weightb=1 / open_gop=1 / weightp=1 / keyint=24 / keyint_min=1 / scenecut=40 / intra_refresh=0 / rc_lookahead=24 / rc=abr / mbtree=0 / bitrate=35000 / ratetol=1.0 / qcomp=0.60 / qpmin=0 / qpmax=69 / qpstep=4 / vbv_maxrate=38000 / vbv_bufsize=30000 / nal_hrd=vbr / filler=0 / ip_ratio=1.40 / pb_ratio=1.30 / aq=1:0.20
And setting ref=4, the encoded file shows ref=2
Any suggestions? I guess Handbrake is using a few default settings somewhere?
Can anyone suggest the settings I should be using for feature films, i.e. shot on film, 1920 x 1980.
HandBrake version 1.3.3
Mac OS 10.1.4.6 (Mojave)
Thanks,
