HB 0.9.4 and Apple TV pixel issue: Please Help

[macrazee]

There's a reason the Handbrake devs are switching the presets to use constant quality. There is simply no comparison as long as you know what you're doing when you change the RF value. The only advantage, IMO, ABR has is that you can predict the file size before encoding.

Which is primarily why I use Universal with some custom trimmings for my encodes...I can figure each movie will end up in the 2-3GB range and I'm fine with that.

That said, do you believe the CQ default setting and single-pass encoding produces comparable results to, say, 2-pass with a static (say 2500ish) bitrate?

Yes, with smaller output files in most cases.

Is this a certain SVN(s) which was causing this that I can use MediaInfo to track down which are bad without watching each one?

And Dyna, I think awhile ago you asked me if there was any more excess heat caused by the CrystalHD card and the answer is "not that I can tell."

Excellent! Thank you! Just did a quick sampling of my movies and my rev's are either very much before or just after those releases. Thanks again, I feel much better.
