Constant Quality MAX Birate

Post by sam2018 »

is there anyway we can set the max bitrate for constant quality? ffmpeg this parameter can do that job, anyway we can use it on handbreak?

Code: Select all

-maxrate 4M

There are a couple of ways.
  1. Use encoder "levels". Levels are designed to tune encoder settings to match the capabilities of a player or playback environment (i.e. streaming). Levels implicitly set "VBV" settings that limit bitrate. Information about levels https://help.encoding.com/knowledge-bas ... 64-levels/
  2. Set VBV settings explicitly in the video tab's "More Settings". Information about VBV settings http://www.chaneru.com/Roku/HLS/X264_Se ... bv-maxrate
