Why would anyone want .avi? H264 10bit can easily compress a 40minute show or two hour movie in less than 100Mb? Not only that but that quality is equivalent to the original rip? I will never understand why some 1080i upscale shows have file sizes in the 1.3Gb range

I finally figure it out faggots.

download handbrake and you can covert mkv files into mp4

It take a little time to mess with it, but all you have to do is once you download the torrent

hit the browse button on handbrake
find the file which will be in mkv format
and then hit the source button
find the file again
than change the file or download from imafaggot.mkv to imafaggot.mp4
hit start

And wah lah it will change

Just using MPC-HC's internal filters is pleb tier, retard.

Also, proper subtitling instead of having to use the internal renderer either for foreign films (notably french cinema and multi-lingual films) is horrible on the eyes.

MadVR is the God King.

Codec packs are cancer for idiots. MPC/LAV/MADVR/VSF is the ultimate setup with Reclock if you want that too. Truly after using MadVR on a properly calibrated display with a goo enough graphics card, you'll never accept anything less.

MPV is also good but if you think what I just wrote is too much work you shoudn't even bother with mpv you pleb.

ITT: Retards not understanding that MKV is simply a container that puts the video, audio, subtitles, chapters, etc all together in a nice way.

You can remux the actual video with no quality loss by extracting it. It takes a few seconds, that's all. There's no need to transcode anything or convert anything. Try rebox or mkvextract to do this.

Also, the scene ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warez_scene ) have their reasons for updating their rules. The leading groups come together to decide on the rules, see https://scenerules.org

tl;dr: mkv is just a container, use rebox or mkvextract to get the video out in a few seconds.

At least they're still making them 8bit

/a/ became a clusterfuck when encoding suddenly switched to 10bit back in 2011. It was all due to some encoder throwing his weight around. No one even managed to really make any use of the apparent advantages 10bit encoding offered, but we all still had to fucking upgrade our software for it.
