#HANDBRAKE DVD RIP SETTINGS 480P#
So again, given a 480p dvd source the Universal preset will still give the same visual quality compared to the other rf 20 presets. Constant Quality encoding which the HB preset use generally dictate that the visual quality will be the same at RF 20 no matter what. But here is the dealio for dvd's (which are by definition 480p. great post and keep the dialogue going.Ĭlick to expand.More or less true. Don't know if there's a specific button or sequence on the ATV remote to wake it up.Īgain. I have to reboot the ATV to get to the menu. One thing I haven't quite figured out is that if I switch to regular or D*TV on another HDMI channel, then maybe go back after a few hours to ATV. I'm viewing the movies on a Mits 65" DLP and the ATV is connected to my Yamaha AVR via HDMI. A batch handler would be cool, but the queue setup isn't bad. Don't know if that is a property of the settings I've chosen or the ATV, or what. I've done a couple of movies from the OEM DVD and it seems that when scenes are shaded or dark, the darks are less defined than when viewing the OEM disc or a Video_TS file. I'm streaming from a USB drive but the ATV is hardwired via ethernet rather than wireless. BTW, do you think MakeMKV is worth the investment? As far as final size, I would be OK with anything up to and including 3-4 GB if necessary. I downloaded the latest Handbrake version and I'm a bit unsure of the best settings since they don't really recommend anything specific and why in the FAQ. My setup is a ATV Gen1 jailbroken with Boxee/XMBC and the latest patchstick and internal software. I'm in a similar situation although I don't have that many LOL movies to deal with. Because I'm doing so many movies now to enter my collection, I just do the encoding and then fix it later if I see any problems. Some DVD's have Fullscreen & Widescreen versions on the same disc and other times it will just select the wrong chapter all together. One thing to watch out for is that HandBrake doesn't always select the correct chapter to encode. Just pick a Handbrake preset and do a few tests on the device(s) you want to view the video on and then go from there. You can spend way too much time with this and get way over critical. On a iMac27 i7 I'm getting encoding frame rates averaging 90fps or so depending on the DVD. So I load up the HandBrake Queue with about 30 movies at night and they are done by noon the next day. I haven't found a reliable way to do a batch convert on the mac, I tried DropFolders but it didn't work for me.

The encoded file sizes are averaging between 1.3 and 2.5 gigs and when I watch the movie it's hard to tell the difference from the original DVD. Finally I use a RF of 19.25 not sure why as it's hard to tell the difference between 18 and the recommended 20.

That also uses the Loose Amamorphic setting, and then I manually change the Format from MP4 to MKV. (on jail-broken ATV2).Īfter doing a lot of comparisons of quality and video settings I decided to go with the High Profile Preset because it produces a smaller file size with very good quality (but longer encoding time). Not sure if the ATV2 will play that natively and like I said I'm using the Plex App. Anyway I decided MKV H.264 was the way to go for me. I did try a few MP4's but the file size seemed to be a little larger for the same RF (constant quality) number. All my other encoding tests were done in Handbrake (latest version) with the original ripped VIDEO_TS folders.Īfter doing all the research I decided to use the MKV file format in HandBrake. If you have the Disk Space for storing and backing up then this will be the best quality but a typical DVD is 6-7 gigs so I ruled it our for that reason. The MakeMKV program produced files that were essentially exact copies of the source DVD's.
I spent hours reading posts and doing rips and encoding tests because I have over 300 DVD's and don't wan't to do this twice.

I also used MakeMKV which takes the DVD VOB files and puts them together in a container so you can watch at full quality with no compression.
I'm using the ATV2 with the Plex App and tried many Handbrake formats and Presets. I spend a great deal of time on this recently to encode my DVD collection for use on Plex.
