My NAS allows me to upgrade to additional add-on expansion units so I should never have a problem with storage, even with main movie only muxes. With the average of my blu-ray muxes being in the low 20GB range, I do think this is probably the best option for me. In the end the only thing that matters is that you're happy with the encode and your eyes and ears can't tell the difference. Chia has made HDD prices stupid in most regions due to miners buying them up.just like video cards. You haven't checked prices recently have you. If I later do my 4K UHDs, then those are going to be more like $6 on average, which still isn't too terrible. As you mentioned, muxing doesn't take long at all with Make MKV or MKVtoolnix and the backups average around $1-2 for blu-ray. I have a NAS with a ton of storage and can add on additional expansion units (QNAP) so this definitely seems like the best way for us to go. Referb 10TB drives with lots of redundancy and very little CPU time needed. I know the Encoder Tune setting will change the advanced options further as well. I'm not sure on more advanced options to input. I have been playing around with Handbrake and so far I have come up with the following for my Bluray backups. My goal is to not lose much original video quality compared to the original file. If I can do around 50% space savings on most of the backups, that would be great. When I stated that I am fine with around 20% space saved, I was just implying that any additional space saved would help me out. I have a few thousand Blurays and any space I can save on those, while keeping the original audio will be very helpful. I am definitely going to keep my favorite movie backups as full 1:1 but for the rest of the movies I am really going to need to save space. I have a lot on my mind and it probably came out jumbled. Hey, thanks for your reply! I totally get what you're saying and I apologize if I wasn't clear in the first post. I'd maybe consider compression if I wanted to save 40-50% or more (which is totally viable with transparency for most BluRay discs using x265). Why bother with any of this to only save 20% on the video bitrate? Just keep the tracks you want and mux to MKV :) Thank you for any suggestions! I really would like to use advanced settings to maintain the best quality possible if you have any suggestions for that as well. I realize every movie compresses differently, but as long as I save some space over the original that is what matters most. If this means having to do a CRF of 16 for every movie, then that's fine by me. Is it still a viable option in 2021 or is there something better like StaxRip? I would prefer to have a one sized fits all setting approach, if possible. I have a lot of storage but not enough to do full backups. My goal is to cut the original video file by at least 20%. For 2 channel DTS MA i can probably convert it to FLAC or keep as is depending on your recommendations.įor video quality, I realize I am going to lose some detail but would like to keep it as close to the original as possible. For 5.1/7.1 i want to stick with the DTS MA/True HD tracks. I want to keep the audio quality original to the source. I have been doing a lot of reading and it seems that I will get better quality with my CPU. I have an i9-9900k processor that I can use for the encoding or a 2080 Super Nvidia GPU. The other 75% of the movies are the ones that I need help encoding. About 25% of the collection will be backed up 1:1 without menus (main movie only). I have a very large blu-ray collection that I would like to backup in the best quality possible.
