Best Audio for DVD Ripping

[willlangford]

Hello,
i do most of dvds on one cd..sometimes 2 if the movie is really long. i was using mp3 and i have now moved to vorbis at 2.0 on the quality. is there something thats better that i should use? also is my quality good for the vorbis?

thanks,

Will

Firstly, there's a reason the rules say not to ask what's best, it's very subjective. You could probably find hundreds of different answers to your question on this board. IMO nothing out there provides better quality than lame's alt preset's, but I never really encode at less than 128K (audio deserves at least that much ;)) Your best answer is to encode and try some different formats and see what sounds best to you.

[Hello]

I like AC3 384 Kbps 5.1 channels. Like KpeX said, 128K for audio is the least it probably should be.
