Re: MacPro 2008
lock n load,
Nice machine, have very much the same...your fps are looking great, congrats! Can I ask, why 720x304 anamorphic? What device(s) are you viewing on that you would want this size? I'm only asking because I'm still trying to figure out how best to archive my stuff, with many devices to consider for long term viewing, etc.
Thanks for sharing, this stuff helps alot...so far I've been using the Advanced AppleTV settings, but I do watch on my iPod Touch as well sometimes, etc. So yeah, any input is appreciated.
Cheers,
Brian

Re: MacPro 2008
er, you cannot have 65% *AND* 2000 kbps. Also 65% (or more importantly, constant quality) cannot have 2 pass by definition.lock'n'load wrote:Quality / Bit Rate: 65%@2000kbps

Useless, completely useless.
You've failed to mention what advanced H264 options and/or preset you're using, nor which filters. Last time I checked, 720x304 isn't anamorphic - that would equate to an aspect ratio of ~2.80:1 on display.
