Avatar: The Last Airbender Blu-Ray - Encode Al or Just Sound?
Posted: Thu Jul 16, 2020 8:04 pm
Description of problem or question:
I just bought the Blu-Ray set of Avatar: The Last Airbender. The files are smaller than I expected, weighing in at 5.3 gigabytes. I'm uncertain as to whether or not it would be worth the time to do full encodes via Handbrake or if I should just use FFMPEG to convert the audio instead. Is it worth the time? Or are these files already as small as they can be without sacrificing quality? If I should encode via Handbrake, should I go with the usual RF 18 quality setting? Or should I go lower?
Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):
HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):
Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
HandBrake Activity Log ***required*** (see How-to get an activity log)
