Installed MystiQ and I'm very impressed. I never quite got a handle on Handbrake and don't do video recoding often enough to usefully learn ffmpeg cli.
I have a Blueray rip of Breaking Bad which took up over 120GB on HD. I tried out several sets of parameters; your new preset was good but had noticeably reduced high frequency in the audio so I ended up being happy with
Code: Select all
-c:v libx265 -preset medium -crf 25 -c:a aac -b:a 192k
Code: Select all
-c:v libx265 -preset medium -crf 28 -c:a aac -b:a 128k -strict -2
Note that -strict is not necessary now - https://twitter.com/ffmpeg/status/94326 ... 89?lang=en
@Stevo is it possible (and not exceedingly difficult) to add custom presets?
Looking forward to reclaiming ~100GB on my video HDD. At about 1hr to recode each episode on my i5 6500, it will take several overnight sessions.
