![]() I only have it set to 2 instances though. This is with DE (my first attempt using it). I was just having a hard time believing that a 60+GB movie can get down to 4.5GB with 4K video, HDR, and audio without looking like crap. I use MakeMKV to create a MKV first direct from the disc (untouched audio/video) then use Ripbot to shrink it down. ![]() My source will be direct off the UHD disc. I take the HD 1080p source and resize it to 720p (for streaming) and it would not be unusual that it would be 1.5GB or even a little larger than the 1080p 4K. As an example I would have a 4K source that I resize to 1080p (for streaming) and it comes out to say 1.5GB. I suspect it is because of 10 bit color vs 8 bit for HD. I've also noticed that 4K sources compress a lot better than their HD counterparts. I've had a video go from 17GB to 10GB with this very light degraining. It's amazing how much data can be saved sometimes on some sources when just applying a very light MDegrain2 with a thSAD=100 value. Watching it shows that it looks excellent. I've had some 4K sources that were so clean that compressed so well I was concerned something was wrong. I use CQ18 for high quality and CQ21 for the streaming encodes. That seems REALLY low.Īll depends on how clean the source is. I tried my first H265 file and set it at CQ 20 which resulted in a 4GB file for Infinity War. What's a good CQ setting for h265? I generally use 10MBps for 1080 content and feel that's a good compromise between file size and quality. ![]()
