Emulate the compression of this movie for my videos? testing settings

Post by kpoviv7 »

Yesterday I downloaded this movie "The Passion of Christ" and it looks amazing. It only weighs 2gb and lasts for more than two hours.
I've seen its properties and I'm trying to copy its settings to Handbrake to compress other videos. But I don't know if more things need to be added.


I leave a capture of the movie with the mediainfo of the codec:

And another screenshot of the Handbrake configuration to try to emulate the compression:

The people who created the copy allowed the compression utility to encode into it the commands necessary. They did not use handbrake, so the command line is not the same.

If it's important to emulate them, you would want to use the same commands on the same program.

Use x265 10 bit preset slow with a target bitrate of 2000 kbps (2 pass/turbo first pass).
