![]() ![]() ATSC TV is broadcast using mpeg2 video - so it is definitely a standard. Plus many streaming devices these days do not support mpeg2 video anymore at all - that's the old DVD video codec and HW-based decoders have been around for 5+ yrs for that codec. I was NOT looking to publish anything, so I didn't look too closely at the creation license requirements. For awhile there, MKV wasn't supported at all on Windows and earlier android devices would accept only h.264/aac/mp4 files - not h.264/aac/mkv files (exactly the same codecs, just a different container). Thanks to the MKV container, some of my files have 10 different audio tracks and 12+ captions/subtitles inside a single file to go with the video. When HiDef video became more and more standard, I switched to h.264/ac3/mkv, but that audio format doesn't playback on all my devices, so I add aac audio tracks and leave the AC3 inside as well. 21st Jun 2016 05:44 1 Srivas Member Nov 2007 I'm here Hi. Passthru means remixing that directly copy the audio without re-encoding and quality loss. Years ago, I was looking for the "most compatible, extensible, usable, video format" to backup my home and TV recordings. Yep - this is one of those "simple questions" that isn't simple because different groups/organizations have different agendas. Separated by commas for more than one audio track. Each of those results is fluid based on the input. Range is 1.0 to 4.0 (too loud), with 1.5 - 2.5 being a useful range. Legacy - Video codec: H.264 (x264) Encoder Profile: High. Note: Here is an example to give you an idea about the Very Slow settings - a user on Handbrake forum reported that it took overs 8 hours to encode 5 DVDs (about 6hr 40min) into X264. All of this is about finding the right trade-off between file size, file resolution and watchability. The best Handbrake quality settings for DVD 480p/576p content is RF18-22. Anything less than 19 is overkill (IMHO) and anything over 22 shows so many artifacts that I find the video unwatchable. In the ninth installment of this series well cover Handbrakes audio options, including what input and output formats are supported and when each is appropr. If you must transcode, the defaults for handbrake are reasonable. Encoding a low-resolution input file with very high quality settings designed for a pristine 1080p video is a complete waste. Darker video different from a beach day video. Romance video would be encoded differently than high-action video. That command will be relatively fast because it just copies and compresses the audio/video into the mkv container no transcoding.Īlso - "best" settings change based on the content. ![]() A bitrate encoding at 320kbps is a good balance. Level 5 is simply a medium setting, creating encodes on average below 320kbps. Simpler sources will result in a lower bitrate. The second option encodes at a given quality level with the final bitrate determined by the source. To copy the video and audio in a mp4 container into an mkv container, just use mkvmerge. The first option is an average bit rate encoding of 320kbps. mkv has some tools that will manipulate MKV containers - like mkvmerge and mmg (the GUI version). Much less processing with the copy since the video, audio, subtitles are just copied from 1 container to another. It is the difference between a 30 sec copy and a 45 min transcode. Don't think handbrake supports that, but avconv and ffmpeg both do. 9.You can put many different types of encoded video and audio into each and taking existing video/audio from one container to another is fairly easy.No referral / affiliate links, personal voting / campaigning / funding, or selling posts Welcome to /r/Plex, a subreddit dedicated to Plex, the media server/client solution for enjoying your media!
