jhren Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 For those who encode/transcode movies .... Might help if you reference what application(s) you are using. Not all ripping/transcoding software support user changeable profiles and levels. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC#Profiles http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC#Levels Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jhren Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 ... The unit seems to play direct Blu-Ray rips without any problems (i.e. no transcoding, no modified audio), so if the storage is not a limiting factor, I suggest using DVD and Blu-Ray rips straight without any conversions. 720p and 1080p both work fine with AAC audio passthrough. Even with these quite large files (~20 GB for a Blu-Ray movie) NEX is really fast, and using the time slider in playback works instantaneously. May also help to explain what you mean by "rip" and what software you are using... If you have a 1080p BR and rip to 720p, that is transcoding. If you have a BR or DVD with audio encoded AC3 (Dolby surround sound format) or DTS (Digital Theater Systems), outputting audio as AAC (Advanced Audio Codec) is transcoding.
