The higher the quality of the source file the higher the details youll preserved when you compress or re-encode Source - a source file is a video that you want to encode/convert to another format, StaxRip, MeGUI, Handbrake, Ripbot264, etc are considered "GUI Front Ends"
Out there at the moment and that wont change for a long time imo, and btw all those software like To output h264 videos and the name of this h264 encoder is x264, x264 is the best h264 encoder Software - dont believe a lot of people saying StaxRip is better, MeGUI is great, Handbrake isĪwesome, Ripbot264 is super, etc this are all false because all of them uses thesame encoder Is decoding too, in digital video when we say decoding it means playing the video,īut of course x264 wont prompt you with a media player and show you the video playback itsĪll happening behind the scenes to reserve more computing resources on the encoding process itself That 400p is faster to encode than the 576p resolution, this is because part of encoding Resolution - the higher the output resolution the longer/slower the encoding time,įor example you encode 2 files with all same settings except that 1 file has output resolution ofĥ76p (1024x576) while the other file has output resolution of 400p (704x400) you will then notice So its faster than 2-pass encoding like average bitrate or filesize mode X264 according to high quality anime compression, and as for encoding mode CRF is only 1-pass You just set preset=veryslow and tune=animation and that will automatically set all the settings of
You could get when re-encoding to small size, and if your in megui or staxrip its much easier Settings - the higher the quality of the settings the longer/slower the encoding timeīut for mini-size encoding its always advisable to set subme=10 (subpixel refinement or motion estimation)Īnd me=umh (motion estimation), trellis=2, aq-strength=0.6 for highest quality possible This is because avisynth is not designed yet to be multi-threaded, so when your using a lot ofĪvisynth filters your like encoding at single-core CPU only Other than resize filters then you might notice your multi-core CPU is not using all the cores Is twice faster against encoding at single-core CPU, and quad-core CPU is 4 times faster againstĮncoding at single-core CPU, if you use a lot of avisynth filters (some simply call them filters)
What you need to encode faster and with qualityĬPU - the more cpu cores you have the faster you can encode, a dual-core CPU
