Encoding a ripped Blu-ray to x264?

[Sagekilla]

Can anyone point me towards how to encode my ripped Blu-ray movie? I'm currently ripping 300 to my hard drive (at a blazing 2.6 MB/s -- Pretty sure that's not normal) and I'd like to convert it when I'm finished ripping it.

Only problem is I don't know what to use to demux it to pass it off to avisynth.

Graphedit can handle Blu-rays fine.

A warning about 300: if you want to retain the grain, you need Prestige or similar, its basically impossible without it. And you'll need at least 10 megabits or so.

If you don't want to retain the grain, it'll look atrocious unless you use a good denoiser on it, like motion-compensated DFTtest. My script for 300:

SetMemoryMax(512)
directshowsource("part0020.grf",audio=false).ConvertToYV12()
Crop(0,(1080-800)/2,0,-(1080-800)/2)
source=last
vf1=source.mvanalyse(pel=2,blksize=16,isb=false,idx=1,overlap=8,sharp=2,truemotion=false)
#vf2=source.mvanalyse(pel=2,blksize=16,isb=false,idx=1,delta=2,overlap=8,sharp=2,truemotion=false)
vb1=source.mvanalyse(pel=2,blksize=16,isb=true,idx=1,overlap=8,sharp=2,truemotion=false)
#vb2=source.mvanalyse(pel=2,blksize=16,isb=true,idx=1,delta=2,overlap=8,sharp=2,truemotion=false)
interleave(mvcompensate(source,vf1,idx=1,thSCD1=1200),source,mvcompensate(source,vb1,idx=1,thSCD1=1200))
dfttest(sigma=2.5,tbsize=3,sbsize=24,sosize=18)
selectevery(3,1)
Spline36Resize(1280,720)
TTempSmoothF(strength=3,maxr=7)

Nope, no intentions of retaining the grain. I have my handy Temporal Degrain function ready (which runs painfully slow at 1 fps on SD resolutions) to kill off the grain.

How would I go about setting up the graph to decode 300?

Edit: Figured it out :) Thanks!

Woops, ended up running into trouble again.. I dropped a m2ts file onto graphedit, saved the file and loaded it thru directshowsource --> virtualdubmod is telling me "GRF file does not have a compatible open video pin."

Haali Media Splitter -> ffdshow
Thats all you need for the graph (assuming you have ffdshow set to decode AVC).

[Sagekilla]

Thanks, already have this set up.

On another note: is there any way to have my m2ts file decoded by my GPU (A 7900 GT)? Was just wondering if I could, seeing as a GPU decoding the VC-1/H.264/MPEG-2 stream would help me out A LOT.

nVidia's PureVideo ;)

Nope that isn't working as GPU accelleration (DXVA) under Windows is only working on a Overlay,VMR or EVR (Vista) rendering interface and not into a file, Nvidias PureVideo Decoder will just fallback to Software Rendering when saving into a file (you can also not use Nvidias Motion Adaptive Deinterlacing this way).

[Sagekilla]

Ah ok, thanks CruNcher and everyone else for helping me get into HD ripping :)
