![]() ![]() I wouldn’t worry about any other settings except the RF and adding the Audio tracks you want and just use the preset settings for everything else. Then change the RF to 19, this always gives me a output file that is nealy as good of a quaility as the input. However, with that said, my personal preference is to use the “High Profile” preset. With HB though, if you ask what the best settings are you will get 100 different answers as everyone tends to have settings that they prefer and some people have different settings for different types of movies. Well first, the best place to find settings is in the Handbrake forum. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to have some discussion regarding this topic. I am about to buy a Synology DS-412+ and 4 WD Red drives (probably 2TB) and I want to do this right (and not over 6 times). I have quite a large collection of bluray movies that I want to build into a great media library. ![]() I’ve done about 20 movies so far but they just don’t look as good as playing the Bluray on my Oppo BDP-83. I don’t mind experimenting and I don’t mind completely doing over what I’ve done so far if it makes sense to do that. Or even a killer Handbrake preset that you use for high quality bluray archiving that you could export and send me. Or if you can point me to a thread or web article that defines a process that you actually use and can attest to its validity. I would be so grateful to anyone willing to take a little time to address these questions. What about subtitles? Does the WDTV Live (Gen 3) now support PGS subtitles embedded in an MKV container? Do I need to do any special processing with subtitles? What do I need to do differently so that I have actual chapters? Should I bother worrying about that? Then I use Handbrake on the M2TS file to create the MKV file. Then I use TXMuxer to mux the video and audio into an M2TS file. I guess I should tell you what I’m using. Does that make any sense? Do you do that? Does it make my files considerably larger then just using the DTS core or AC3 5.1? ![]() My thinking is that eventually that may not be true and I want to have archived the full audio capability in case that happens. I have been keeping the highest level of audio available even though I realize that the WDTV Live can’t pass some of them and only uses the core. Or do you use 2-pass with a bitrate instead? Loose or Strict)ĭo you use RF for quality, and if so what value do you use. Here are some of the things I am trying to get a handle on before I spend weeks or months ripping disks just to eventually determine I really should have done it differently: I would say I am looking for a process that will produce files smaller than 1:1 versions of the movies but large enough that I don’t look at them and think 'they don’t even look as good as my Comcast HD channels of TV" I recognize that there is probably not just one exact way to do it but I thought I would make a request in these forums for a good process that I can use to rip my bluray disks and create mkv’s that will look really good on my 73" HD TV. I have read so many articles on what values to use for Anamorphic, what RF value to use, what Advanced parameter values to use, and every article/thread tends to contradict the last one I read. FIrstly let me say that I am quite aware that a Google search will produce about 200 million hits on what Handbrake settings to use when ripping Bluray disks.
