Encoding DVD to x264 [Updated: 06-12-2010]

**gordian_knot** · August 14th, 2011, 10:39 AM

Who has Blu-ray? I suppose some people must - Denaniel for instance

- but I don't know anyone who has one or even wants one. Maybe we're all cheapskates where I live

.

However, I don't use a DVD player either, I use a very simple method for watching porn - stick it on a USB flashdrive and stick the flashdrive into the side of the TV. No more disk burning for me ha ha! It can play avi, mpeg, mp4 and mkv - though depending on the codec. The only real problem I have with mkv is that I create clip compilations for myself and mkv files are a bugger to edit with any degree of accuracy - despite the claims of many programs. The TV also doesn't play AAC audio. Basically it means conversion is required. It's unfortunate because Denaniel consistently posts outstanding rips of great films but for me a lower-quality avi is the way to go if it is available.

EDIT: When I said AAC I meant to say ac3. Not that it makes a difference, the TV can't play either one lol
