Could you please tell me the software that you guys use for encoding and the settings that is applied for your releases?I want to encode some of my BDMVs and I find that your releases have great quality.
Could you please provide a detailed reply for this. This is my humble request.
I'm afraid I can't give a simple answer. I'm learning encoding stuff 10 years in a row, continuously improving knowledge and technics to do that kind of thing.
If you ask for that release, Konosuba Movie was drawn (or more proper word here is "rendered") at 900p, upscaled to 1080p with bicubic kernel and some other stuff applied onto it. My filtering includes descaling with re-upscaling using better algorithm (eedi3+nnedi3), masking >900p elements with line mask (I had to preview whole movie in editor to find those scenes), and use plain nnedi3 AA for few 1080p scenes (to make aliasing less visible). As there is no spotted banding, I just slightly denoised it with moderate f3kdb settings to prevent banding from denoising. And then materials are ready for encoding.
In that movie I've used crf 15.5 as main bitrate controlling factor, --zones option to make bitrate lower on few scenes (visually it looks fine, but 30-80 MB saved on them) and slightly lowered our usual psy-rd setting to drop some bitrate on noise preservation (overall quality is still ok when near 3.5 mbps saved comparing to default Beatrice-Raws x265 preset) and qp adapt. range is set to 2. Probably that's all for Knosuba Movie source, if I didn't forgot something insignificant.
@DJATOM THANK YOU. With this I will be able to encode a few movies of mine.
But what about multi episode anime? For example like Kaguya-sama what settings do you apply for series like this(I actually want to encode high school dxd born). And one more thing you forgot to mention the software that you use. I don't think I can apply these settings in simple encoding applications like handbrake. I would like to use a more proper software.
