Hi @Atak, after a period having children i've decided to get back into encoding some of my library to save some space on my media server (for speed in recent times i've just been using MakeMKV to rip everything).

In that time 4k movies have come along and obviously those rips take a lot of hard drive space. I'm looking to compress some of my collection down (less special effect heavy films like comedies in the main) to get some space back.

I know Handbrake doesn't completely support HDR, but I've seen some suggestions that Ripbot does and can pass it through. I also notice the option to Tonemap is included.

I just wondered if I could get clarity on preserving HDR please? I just want to confirm whether it's just a case of feeding Ripbot the 4k file, choosing HEVC and MA10 as my encoder settings and pressing start, or whether I need to turn tonemapping on as well?

Thanks very much in advance, very much appreciate the programme and the work you put into it.
