As newbie in x264 conversions I would kindly ask you to help me finding the best profile suited to my mov/avi files. I tested the recommended "Unrestricted 2pass HQ" with V85.
In the ttachment previously added the this thread:
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1512750#post1512750
is the comparison between the raw avi file (created by merging several .mov files of the camera, no compression, only join) and the result obtained with the aforementioned "Unrestricted 2pass HQ"
I "guess" that it is somehow ever-engineered, at least watching that I start with a Baseline@L5.0 and end-up with a High@L5.0.
Another doubt is related to the selected bitrate, from 33.8 down to 12 Mbps. Here comes the famous choice, whether the CBR single pass would be more suited, ..., no idea!
To hope in receiving a good answer I must define my priorities, which were:
- To not degrade the quality of the image when seen on a normal full HD home TV (32-40 inches)
- To decrease if possible the size (from a 16 GB/h perhaps to less than 8 GB/s).
Note that I will remove the raw files and keep only these mkv results for future usage (such as making a movie with some editor)
I thank you in advance for the time spending with me
