Best way to rip
Best way to rip
Question for everyone smarter then me. I have a mac and am wondering what the best settings are to rip if I will be watching movies off my computer or external to my computer to my TV via mini display port to HDMI. I am curious as to what the settings are that will give me the best quality possible. Thank you!
Re: Best way to rip
With the current developer snapshots and the upcoming 0.9.4 release, the majority of the built in presets utilise constant quality encoding so in theory your encodes should appear very similar regardless of the preset used. Where you'll need to make a decision is in regard to encode speed vs. encoded file size - Of the current presets, High Profile will give the smallest encodes, at the expense of a significantly slower encoding speed and higher CPU load during playback.
That being said, I often use a tweaked version of the Apple TV preset as it provides a good balance between file size and encode speed.

Looks like theres a bunch of variations there, which one are you using? It looks like these are pretty awesome settings.TedJ wrote:With the current developer snapshots and the upcoming 0.9.4 release, the majority of the built in presets utilise constant quality encoding so in theory your encodes should appear very similar regardless of the preset used.

Generally speaking, I'd prefer the ones later in the thread as they've been tuned versus current code - I'd take a look at dynaflash's most recent settings.

Thank you! I will do that!TedJ wrote:Generally speaking, I'd prefer the ones later in the thread as they've been tuned versus current code - I'd take a look at dynaflash's most recent settings.
So just to be clear we're talking about this post specifically:
http://forum.handbrake.fr/viewtopic.php ... =75#p63980
and I would pick the apple tv preset and then add this to the advanced settings?
i'm still new to all of this and have certainly never tackled the advanced settings, but I do want to get better!ref=3:mixed-refs=1:bframes=3:me=hex:subq=7:b-adapt=2:8x8dct=1:weightb=0:trellis=0:weightp=0
