Best Quality Codec? 2017-09-09 07:46:53 Post No.62336174

Best Quality Codec? Anonymous 2017-09-09 07:46:53 Post No. 62336174 [Report] [View this topic]

Is it pointless to keep straight Blu-ray rips? Is there a more efficient codec that can reduce the file size with no noticeable dip in quality? I've just been using MakeMKV and keeping the unmodified .mkv files on my file server. I'm in no danger of running out of storage anytime soon, but I wonder if I'm needlessly wasting space. To the fellow data hoarders on here, what method do you use?

Unless you're encoding 4k or sub-1mbps video it's a total waste of time. 10bit x264 does a comparable job way faster.

Guys help me figure out how to loot best buy during the hurricane. The stuff is just going to be written off anyway, so I might as well get my hands on that LG OLED that I will never be able to afford. Helpful tips and support are welcome.

My best friend bought their 4TB Barracuda and it lasted maybe a week. He had to RMA it but the drive he got in return lasted maybe 2 months. Total fucking garbage.

How can this company make such shit hard disks and still be in business?? I've never heard anyone say anything good about Seagate.

Well, they aren't a trading company or dealing with actual transactions, but many of their clientele probably expect the same reliable information format for every report and query.
So more than likely something old that hasn't been changed in decades...

Could be old Unix, could be VMS, could be anything.

So I got a $300 gift card to micro center.

I spend a helluva lot of time listening to music and I'm tired of this cheap department store garbage with its muffled up sound that I'm so use to. Would love to finally own some true high quality sets.

What would you recommend?

Why do websites' message boards still filter words?

Think about it - the success of Reddit and 4chan prove that nobody gives a fuck about censoring bad words.
