you mean usenet vs och. once you understand usenet, you realize how bad och is. it's a different world. Traffic is encrypted, it is cheaper, faster, no traffic limit, no captchas. better in every aspect. if you are looking for a release, you will find at och maybe 4 that are still online. on usenet there are often 20 or more. in different qualities. from different groups. don't forget they are online for years.
Instead of a hotkey (space) to pause/resume a video.. would be nice if one could use the (left) mouse button anywhere on the video. This is the way potplayer does it. Also, say you have VLC for android and you are connected to the internet.. is it possible to cast your phone screen onto a laptop also running VLC?
Usenet is dead. The Millennials and Gen Z'ers destroyed it like they do everything else. All the archives are password protected and they want you to pay for the password. I don't think so. It was never like that
So...rip your discs _uncompressed_ and how is this different than just ripping them and storing them on a large drive with any given program? I'm confused. Is there some GUI that loads up the thing like it's playing in a software player? (then just use that?)
Sony doesn't like MKV because it was invented and used for pirated content. Sony is big in the media business. With MakeMKV you can drop the extras and duplicated audio tracks. If you wanted to keep everything, you could just copy the files directly. They are still digital. Corporations have extended the MP4 format to store AC-3. Big corporations love ISO Media Format it and use it for everything. Surround music now is Dolby inside MP4. But there are no GUI tools for a normal computer to compile MP4s. Matroska is now developed almost exclusively by Bunkus, and he decides what goes in.
MKV is mp4 video with various quality audio streams and numerous subtitle streams. That last one is the key for popularity. A lot of people around the world like to watch English movies but need to see the subtitles for their language. On top of that, you might also want to watch with director commentary going in the background. It's hard to pay attention to both the actors and the director at the same time. Having multiple subtitle streams is AMAZING for a file format and it's one big reason why MKV files took off in popularity around the world.
do note that sometimes a bluray will have several main video files with commentary built into it or for vision impaired stuff and makmkv will not tell you which is which, sometimes its trial and error to get the main one if you dont want all the fancy extras so you can save some time while ripping.
The problem I have with Handbrake is sometimes I have to have CC on because of my hearing and Handbrake either has it forced or not so I either have to set it so it is constantly on or no CC at all,cannot set to be able to change it while watching video.
Ok, I have heard of the Fire Stick but I have never used it. We have two smart TVs and Xfinity and our laptops and tablets so that has been sufficient. When I go travelling, i take my laptop with me and a super long HDMI cable. The idea of not having to do that is appealing. So, here is the question: Where does KODI run and how do I use it? Does is run on the Fire Stick and then I use a remote to connect the the Fire Stick or do I run KODI on my laptop and that talks to the Fire Stick? How does the Fire Stick access content? Does is connect to WiFi or a CAT5 cable or ...? FEED ME ;)
indeed... the post answers all those questions, but here's a quick answer: "Hi there! The Fire Stick is a fantastic portable streaming option. Here's a simple guide on using Kodi with it: Kodi on Fire Stick: Install Kodi directly on the Fire Stick. Use the Fire Stick remote to navigate Kodi. Content Access: The Fire Stick connects to the internet via WiFi. Kodi then streams content from various online sources. Setup: Follow our guide to install Kodi on your Fire Stick (www.rapidseedbox.com/blog/kodi-on-firestick). Add-ons will help you access movies, TV shows, and more.
Thank you very much! I really like this video because it can help so many people how to shrink the videos they have to a much smaller size. You made me subscribe to your channel and also give you a like for this video! And you made my day! And can you please make a more in-depth video about the handbrake software? Yours from Meyrom Gil Saar😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
With high-speed internet and cheap SSDs widely available, I'd argue DVDs (and to a lesser degree Blu-rays) shouldn't be backed-up or distributed online as .MKVs, but as .ISO rips containing the _entire_ disc. Maybe we can even get a nice app or Linux distro that lets you browse your digital collection by the box art, similar to browsing a rental store inthe early 2000s, which "plays" the .ISO for a complete viewing experience. Add optional scanline emulation and the ability to view DVD booklet scans before launching the .ISO and you've got the best of *all* worlds.
way down this rabbit hole being using MKV for a few years and have over 25tb of films and TV stored on a NAS in fact will need to buy a new one as will run out of space soon
Well Done Brotha, Attempting to Update my Library and ReDo Old Backups. I used something like anydvd 20 years ago, so I want to make sure everything is done properly. I encode everything as h265 mkv... Im still trying to figure this out. I found my wife's unused MacMini M1 does a Stupid-Good job Transcoding with Apple Hardware New Sub; Detroit, Michigan, US
When archiving stuff like that, you need a codec that will give you a good quality while keeping output video small. MPEG2 and AC3 isn't it. There are some really smart codes that give small files while keeping the quality more or less intact, but they don't work with the MKV container.
while .MKV can contain a DVD's un-reencoded MPEG2 video and AC3 audio streams, there's no real good reason to do that. 4:24 not the way you've described it, no. Matroska (and MP4 or AVI) is a container format, not a video format. if can store whatever video format you want, including MPEG1, MPEG2, MPEG4, h264, h265, h266, AV1, AV2, VP8, VP9, HuffYUV, ProRES, etc. MKV on it's own does not compress anything. also, DVDs and Blu-rays are digital formats, there's nothing analog stored in them. you are not performing ANY analog to digital conversation when going from DVD to MKV, you are only either re-wrapping the MPEG2 video and AC3 audio from an MPEG-TS into an MKV, or reencoding the video and audio to another format and wrapping that in an MKV.
At 3:24 the gentleman clearly said MKV does NOT compress like MP4 can. Then he went on to describe mkv fairly accurately as well as it's benefits. Although I didn't see mention of any analog to digital conversion, I can understand calling DVDs and blu-rays analog in the sense that they rely on the reading of physical variances via light.
@@ludovician neither MKV or MP4 are compression formats. they are both containers. and he explained that fact piss poorly, making it out that "MKV can store your videos in a less compromised way", when the container has nothing to do with that. you can easily have lossless MP4s and over-compressed MKVs. MKV is better in what else it can contain, like embedded subtitles of various formats, like Advanced SubStation Alpha (.ass) with embedded fonts, chaptering info, and menuing (thought I haven't seen any actually using it). It has nothing to do with how the contained video/audio is compressed.
@@sarreqteryx I thought it was actually explained pretty clearly. Mkv is a container that can hold various types of video formats while MP4 contains a compressed video format. Any mention of analog? Are there any statements he made that you think are unclear? I can only find your comment stating MKV compresses.
@@ludovician you just wrote what was unclear. MP4 can contain uncompressed formats just as well as MKV can contain overly compressed formats. the containers themselves don't compress anything. the difference being MP4 is limited to fewer video and audio formats than MKV.
