Re-encode a DVD rip (MKV) with as little compression as possible?

Post by Dougmeister »

Description of problem or question:

How do I re-encode a DVD rip (MKV) with as little compression as possible? The only reason I'm doing it is to add forced subtitles.


Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):

I've tried several of the presets, but I think that manual settings are what I need (Dimensions, Filters, Video, Audio tabs).


HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):

Version 1.2.2


Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):

Windows 10 64-bit

Description of problem or question:

Thanks. mduell, that one is better than what I've *been* using, but the resulting output file is still a good bit smaller...

Even when I tried "Super HQ 1080p30 Surround", the output file shrank from 5.47 GB way down to less than 2 GB.


Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):

I've tried several of the presets.


HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):

Version 1.2.2


Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):

Windows 10 64-bit

Re: Re-encode a DVD rip (MKV) with as little compression as possible?

Post by Deleted User 13735 »

that one is better than what I've *been* using, but the resulting output file is still a good bit smaller...
Even when I tried "Super HQ 1080p30 Surround", the output file shrank from 5.47 GB way down to less than 2 GB.
x264 (Handbrake) produces files that are natively 30-70% smaller than MPEG-2 (DVD).

Instead of trying to make an apple look like an orange, if you want similar file sizes, encode MPEG-2.

Also, you're using a previous version of Handbrake. Stock advice is to stay current.
Happy 2021.

Don’t worry about size, if it looks good you are ok.

The only reason I worry about the size of the output file is that I want as little compression as possible. I.e., I want it to be as close to the original as possible because the video editor I'm using (VideoRedo) is having problems with the file after it is compressed.

If you want to use the file in an editor, try the production presets.
