mkv doesnt natively play on playstations n shiet, probs why
lel icucks butthurt en masse, love it.
Even my toaster can play mkvs in this day and ag3, I dont see what's the issue here
>>53943669
But it does on even sub-$100 android phones and sub-$100 android tv sticks.
>>53943685
apple users
go back to avi and call it a day
mkv is a weeb format for toggling on English subtitles in their loli animes.
It doesn't belong in full-english TV shows.
>>53943688
normies dont use that
only neckbears and pajeets
just wait until they start adopting h265/vp9
>b-but mah 20+ year old pee-ess-three can't play them! fuck those people working for free to make available things i like available to me also for free!
>>53943718
because everyone has good hearing, right? and no english shows ever have had any foreign speech in them, right?
>>53943718
Every TV show I have that is in English is in .mkv. I didn't even realize anybody was still doing shows in .mp4.
>>53943720
>normies dont use that
>only neckbears and pajeets
Actually most do. It's just butthurt aplel users tend to sperg out and cause a huge ruckus.
>>53943764
because you don't download pleb SD releases, HD releases have been mkv for years
>>53943718

Anime pretty much sees no takedowns at all.
I wrote an indexer thats online at the moment, and I recently went back 3 years and managed to get 140,000 releases (across the 3 major groups) to be 100% complete, and 2000 were incomplete (but likely still repairable).

Wait, YIFY did this?
>>53946170
>this is what idiots who don't understand video technology actually believe
live action footage has MORE gradients than anime, not the other way around.
>>53946197
It also has less large sections of solid colors, which makes banding much less noticeable unless it was encoded like complete shit.
The format doesn't matter to me. Most everything can play mkv. If you have something unusual or shitty that doesn't , transcode. The bigger issue to me is 10bit / hi10 and or HEVC / x265. We don't yet have a great HEVC open source codec do we?
However, I love 265 content. Great quality, smaller size. However, few devices can play it. Likewise 10bit 264 or 265. Lots of things are 10 bit and many devices can't play it right. Especially as we .move toward 4k, both of these are more useful. However, it seems we lack good effective hardware players with 4k, 10 bit 265 and VP9 support on a 64 bit device. Most of the Chinese shit Android players can't do this well, even if they claim they can. Only devices with Amlogic S905 can even play it, really.
Worse it seems hard to find a media streamer player that allows to play both pirated shit off the local network with the above specs and run highest quality Android apps. Most players don't even run Android 6.0 or Android TV 6.0, the newest seem stuck on 5.1.1 if you're lucky. The only three legit players I've found all have their own issues. Nexus Player can't handle 10bit, but it at least has newest Android and stuff. Little old now, wish they had a new version. Shield TV is the most powerful, can even play 4k 265 10bit, but costs 200 USD at minimum. Not sure if it will be updated but it does seem to be newest OS. Lastly, the WeTek Core is the best box of its type and is made by a great company. They are partners with Kodi and OpenElec, support both on the device. The only bad thing about it is that its Amlogic S812 doesn't support 10 bit and that its on Android 5.1.1 . if they made a newer device chipset, ID love to support the company. Anyone know any worthwhile Android media players?
I figure I may need to run Plex or Emby on my file server...

>>53943718
It's not a format but a container.
It's purpose is not related to substitles, but in multi-audio solutions. Given how poo-in-the-loos are so adamant on watching everything dubbed in their fart language, you could say this decision was oriented at this giant collective and similar.
As far as multi-audio goes, dubbing is cancer. I shit on it.

It still has issues with hardcoded subs, which is a bit annoying because there are times when I want to remove the 20-fucking subtitles of other languages that I'll never use, but if I try and remux it in mkvtoolnix, it ends up stripping out the hardcoded "forced" subtitles that exist for the intermittent non-english scenes.
>>53948573
how are these options?
>>53948539
>But wouldn't you lose quality if you was to convert it?
Depends on the quality level you set. If you use H265 in lossless mode you would lose no quality.
>>53948649
To get a true lossless mode you need to set the x265 option--lossless.
>>53948649
You don't even have to re-encode, remuxing is enough.

Stop fucking lying
>>53948711
How are you going to remux h264 to h265?
>>53948793
In reality: Yes you can convert h264 to h265, yes that means you have to transcode it. Transcoding to a lossy format means you lose quality, and doing a transcode of an encode gives you even more loss than transcoding from a transport stream or a full bluray.
>he doesn't buy his media
Aren't you faggots old enough yet to work?
>>53948821
Wheres the lossless option on handbrake?
>>53948858
Are you fucking blind?
>>53948858
Why would you encode it losslessly in H265? What are you even trying to do?
>>53948879
small file size, I have 4TB of anime
>>53944382
Seems annoying if you want to try to find older stuff. Probably good for new releases, but the trackers I use cap my downspeed on any new content I have set to autodl.
>>53948888
>He thinks encoding losslessly will result in a small filesize
lol
>>53948888 (checked)
What.
Lossless video is enormous. You'd most likely increase the size of your chinese cartoons.
>>53948898
yeah using H265 it will
>>53948905
>most likely
You mean definitely. By a few orders of magnitude.
>>53948905
But if I encode all the h254 to h265 won't it reduce the file sizes? also in pic are these the correct choices, the video I'm encoding has an overall bitrate of 11.9Mpbs
>>53948935
I haven't actually tried it, and chinese cartoons are mostly static images with moving mouths. Easy shit to compress. I don't think it'd be orders of magnitude larger.
>>53948946
Not if you convert it lossless. It will try to encode everything as-is, including all existing compression artifacts. The bitrate will blow up.
My 40USD bluray player can play those files.
>>53943643
curryniggers and huehuehue's keep complaining even if they get stuff for free
>sir,,,how play banging theory in telephone is mkv??????
>>53948946
Are these ok cpu temps when encoding?
>>53948946
I haven't really used Handbrake, but it doesn't look like it'd do what you want.
The option for lossless is --lossless, which is what you need to put in the extra options. It'd probably ignore the bitrate/crf setting you set then.
If your source is 11.9Mbit/s and you set avg bitrate to 11900 kbit/s, your result would have the exact same filesize but with some bonus quality loss from generation loss. Bitrate is what determines filesize, so if you have a source that's 10mbit/s and you encode it in H265 at 20mbit/s, you'd actually double the filesize.
The promise of H265 is that it can do equal quality to H264 at half the bitrate, or better quality at identical bitrates. This means that if you have a source that's 40mbit/s, and you encode it in H264 at 10mbit/s and in H265 at 5mbit/s, both of those encodes should have similar quality.
What you'd want is to halve your bitrate and encode at that, which would save you 50% on your filesize. You will lose quality from doing that though, because of generation loss.
>>53949012
No, it should be over 100 desu senpai
>>53949033
ah ok, so what you're saying is I should encode from a source file that has a high bitrate untouched then encode that to h265? I can find a 40-50Mbps anime movie then encode it in h265 at 10Mbps? But how do I find the spot where I don't encode it so much it loses quality? Do I have to do trail and error?
They must be doing it to avoid DRM.
>>53944018

>>53949085
>>53948946
Jesus.
Are you a pre 2010-tier old /g/ troll?
All those subtle baits, man.
>>53948956
I tried it.
Source: [Vivid] Mushishi Zoku Shou - 01 [8902B060].mkv
>Codec: H.264
>Overall average bitrate: 1.4 Mbps
I extracted the first 6 minutes of this as lossless y4m, for reference (and compatibility with the next step). This resulted in a file with an average bitrate of 532.95 Mbps.
I then encoded it withx265 --lossless. This resulted in a file with an average of 24 Mbps.
So it's not quite as gigantic as naive lossless algorithms (i.e. y4m), but it's still bigger by a factor of 20x Not exactly a good archival solution.
For the curious, I also tried ffv1, which is another lossless codec. This resulted in a file with an average bitrate of 80 Mbps.
>>53949085
It is pretty much trial and error, yes. Consider encoding in chains like this:
Source -> Encode A -> Encode B
Source -> Encode C
The way it works is that B will NEVER be higher quality than A, at most it can be identical if you use lossless encoding. The problem with that is that lossless video is enormous, so you'd be increasing the filesize, making it pointless to do if your goal is to save diskspace, you'd be better off just keeping A as it is. Encoding B in higher bitrate than the source in H265 would still not make it better, it would be worse than A because of generation loss, which is what happens when you encode something lossy -> lossy. Think overly JPG'd shit.
If B and C are both encoded with the same options, C will always be higher quality, because it is closer to the source, unless A is lossless of course. This is why you want to encode from either blurays/remuxes or transport streams. Note that Bluray and TS are also lossy encodes, it's just closer to the real source, namely the actual raw video or film the movie was shot on, and it's the best quality source material consumers can get.
What you'd want is to do a scenario like with C, but there's nothing stopping you from doing it the other way. If Source is 40mbit/s, A is 12Mbit/s, and B is 5mbit/s, you will save diskspace, it would just be worse than if you did C at 5mbit/s.

But I converted all my MP3s to FLAC and now they sound 10x better.
What the fuck, people were actually downloading MP4s? Where the fuck do you even find this shit? I don't think I've downloaded anything that wasn't mkv in 5 years.
>>53949227
ok I understand now thanks, but where would I find the source files from? I use animebytes
>>53949257
It's still pretty common for tv shows, at least on public trackers, movies have all been mkv for years
All pirate groups have switched to mkv now.
Anime groups all did this 10 years ago.
Anime groups once again leading the way. Remember the guy who invented x264 did it for anime.
MadVR was for anime.
mpv was for anime.
Anime drives the entire encoding industry.
Maki a shit.
>>53949266
>but where would I find the source files from?
The closest thing to the source you're going to get, apart from breaking into the movie studios and stealing their master copy, is the digital cinema package. (Basically what they give to cinemas)
Expect to pay a 2-3 digit sum for the DCP + the necessary equipment to read it, though.
>>53949185
So it's not orders of magnitude larger then! Only a single order of magnitude, which is not too bad!
You could try using slower encoding settings. From the x265 documentation linked earlier, in the examples, encoding with --preset faster resulted in a compression ratio of 3.11:1, but with --preset veryslow it was 3.76:1. You could be saving hundreds of kbit/s!
>>53949296
ok where would I find them online? Without using money
>>53949281
>anime is leading the encoding technological frontier
Which is hilarious considering how technically simplistic anime is compared to both Western animation and real life film.
How did the job of encoding low-frame-rate moving blobs of crayon-solid-colours become the motivation for bleeding edge video encoding tech is a mystery. You'd think it's the people who are encoding visually complex stuff like real life action films that would be pushing the frontier about encoding tech.
>>53949305
>So it's not orders of magnitude larger then! Only a single order of magnitude, which is not too bad!
I picked a very, very generous sample. Mushishi consists mostly of static imagery and slow pans.
>>53949266
>>53949296
For piracy, full Blurays or remuxes thereof are usually used as the source for encodes. Where to find them is up to you. HDBits has a lot for movies, but I dunno where you can find any for chinese cartoons.
When piracy niggers say "source", they usually mean what they use to encode from, i.e. the bluray.
>>53949323
Notice how normie anime users don't give a shit about quality either, they stream their shitty hardsubbed rips off video websites like youtube.
It's just that video technology seems to exist at some intersection of computer nerds, shut-ins and social outcasts; a group so autistic it could only possible like anime.
Also, remember that fansubbing is basically born from a need to provide something that doesn't exist - high-quality encodes with good subtitles made available to an international audience. The moment people have gotten into fansubbing, they've also gotten into video technology. And one thing leads to another.
>>53949274
I don't think I've downloaded anything, movie, TV show, anime, any sort of video content whatsoever that wasn't MKV ever since HD/Full HD became a thing.
AVI was a thing before that, but since HD rolled around I don't think I've seen anything that wasn't MKV.
>>53949373
Most 1080p releases of tv shows on rarbg are still mp4
>>53949395
Actually i just checked and most of them are mkv, i didn't even notice... there are some mp4 though
>>53949327
Yes, you are right about it being much larger than the source. I just implied it wouldn't bloat it to gigantic proportions, like 200mbit/s.
24mbit/s is actually kinda promising though. If you have animu blurays with 40mbit/s video, it could soon be feasable to release lossless encodes of them. Using slower presets, I think you can gain more compression, and I'd also bet that using a bluray as the source would help a bit because it would have less compression artifacts than a super small encode. Maybe.
my 2012 panasonic plasma can play 1080p mkv off a usb.
>>53949527
But not 10-bit shit.
>>53949543
8bit plasma prob looks better than 10bit lcd
>>53949543
>But not 10-bit shit.
Not everyone's a weeb manchild
>>53949583
Plasma is way worse than LCD whatever the source.
If you read the link you'd see that it's PIRATES THEMSELVES who have come up with the new 'rule'.
>The rules are intended for Scene groups only. These groups don’t share their work directly to the public, but between themselves on so-called “topsites”.
Meh
>“SD tv shows will soon be released in mkv containers. If you’re an mp4 fan you can remux the mkv files to mp4 in 2 simple steps in less than 30 seconds with the app link below,” ETTV writes.
Double meh.
Don't like it, don't download it.
Watch it on the telly and enjoy the commercial breaks.
>>53949619
depends on the plasma, any dual scan plasma would fuck up any LCD hands down but they werent made after 2010
>>53947117
mkv and mp4 are just containers. Most videos are encoded with h264 video and AAC audio, no matter the extension

MKV can be a giant headache depending on the device it's being used on. Computer? No problem. Streaming from a media server? Better check to make sure things are compatible first.
iphones 6 and above have HW h265 10bit decoding
they just can't use it for videos because of licensing, only used for facetime
>>53943688
My cheap android tablet can't handle mkv animu with memesubs.
Is this Diaz's work again?
people who use mp4's and encode ac3 or dts sound into aac are dumbass fag homos
>>53947117
matroska is a container, you stupid retard
god, /g/ is filled with retarded shits like you
>Indeed my own experience is that it is much easier to encode an mp4, then an mkv. turning a video into an mp4 means simply running it through a single program. while to make an mkv require multiple programs. and much longer encode times.
i breathe through my mouth and consume my own poo-poo

I was playing 10 bit MKVs 3 or 4 years ago on my HOX, what the fuck are you on?
>>53950167
Holy shit this... fucking free-shit tards don't get this. This isn't a move to h265, it's just a container change.
what torrent client should i use

whatever came with your distro

Enjoy your eye cancer
Why developers doesn't add mkv support for their devices, like back in day DVD players got DivX support? Because MPEG4 patents?
>>53951471
I mostly use rtorrent with rutorrent/nginx for porn I use transmission-daemon and transgui and sometimes I use qbittorrent on windows

it's a PSP-compatible encode, it's pretty limited
>>53951949
you can still use better settings, even for psp compatibility
>>53951949
>PSP
Buy a phone or tablet stop being a child.
>>53951924
-c:a copy
to
-c:a libmp3lame
or whatever you want really, mp3 is just most likely to be built into your ffmpeg.
>>53951990
that's true, iirc the psp can into level 3.0, his encode is level 2.1
>>53952007
Wouldn't aac be better codec than mp3. Anyway, due mp4-container's limits it's just better to use mkv.
>>53950772
Well stop buying chink shit. My zte warp elite handles 720p 10-bit and 1080p 8-bit (never tried 10-bit) animu with subs just fine. I only paid $80 for my phone too.
>>53951924
mp4 can't into flac, or the subtitles
you'd need to transcode the audio, and extract the subtitles to seperate files
>>53952034
depends on the encoder
faac is a shit, qaac is not
>>53951924
that other guy was dumb. not all containers can hold everything, like duh
>>53951825
electronics conglomerates generally do not support introducing free-to-use or FOSS shit to their markets because, simply put, "it's bad for business." They think all software and usage of intellectual property should be paid and for-profit in order to keep the money flowing and the economy growing.

I can shitpost with it too.
>>53952099
it works the other way around, when going from mp4 to mkv. The MKV container can hold anything. That is why the release groups are switching to it.
MP4 is much more limited in what types of encodes you can store in it
>>53952055
and FDK-AAC?
(forget the licensing issues for this time)
>>53951825
They already did.
Look at blu-ray players, almost all of them support DivX HD(which is, H.264 + AAC muxed into an MKV)
>>53952740
is good too
really, only faac should be avoided like the plague
>>53951924
>trying to put your good audio in fucking garbage container that is mp4
there's your problem.
>>53943643
MKV is better, only plebs are still using other formats
>>53943669
MKV does play on the PS4, you just have to encode the sound on AC3 if it isn't already.
>>53943643
PSA to apple users - Infuse Pro. You're welcome. $10. Just buy the fucking thing.
>>53953186
It's just a container. It doesn't fucking matter at all except for better subtitle capabilities. I like that personally since I'm WHATDIDYOUSAY? HoHfag but mp4 has better compatibility
>>53952271
mp4's major limitations is subtitles
>>53951114
the container has no effect whatsoever on the encode time. x264 = x264. It's the vid codec that matters not the container.
>>53950822
If you have a good enough sound system to "need" AC3 passthrough you can afford the $10 to buy the BD yourself fgt
>>53953251
or just use Handbrake since it's free? it takes less than half an hour to learn and it can do everything.

1080p usually pre's like half an hour to an hour after SD.
so by the time you start your download, I'm already halfway through the ep.
>>53943643

If you don't care about quality why don't you just watch it live on TV then with fucking ads, you'll get it even an hour earlier.
