![]() Ya, the M2TS format was the initial way that people got it working and then there was the demux from the M2TS to extract the contents and then to put it all into a mp4 which took a bit more effort to do the conversion that also worked. This was all because the mkv container just didn't support it so it was great that it was worked out that DV would be officially incorporated into the container which is great rather than it being some unofficial hack or something. ![]() Right now it's just growing pains because it's so new and it hasn't trickled down to everything but I fully expect that down the road, mkv will be the primary way people store DV content. So for me personally, I'm just ripping things into a mkv knowing that at some point, it will just all work without having to figure out what's the right hardware and software combination that will play it back. I'm just more relieved than anything, because some people felt that it might not be possible to do, or there would be issues with how it's done. But it seems like with everything else, formats will be cracked/broken eventually so it was only a matter of time. ![]() I'm just glad that it's possible and one day it'll be common.Ĭlick to shrink.I just have to laugh, the sheer amount of variables between Plex, the client chosen, and all the codec/container combos is bananas. I think the Shield is that device (unofficially) but I just don't get how there isn't a "partnered" Plex client device. Circling back Verve's original issue.Woodstock is correct, in that the issue CAN be with the playback/transcoding.I serve up to 11 users on mine and it's crazy keeping track of what everyone uses. However, I've also found that certain DVDs that were overly compressed can also lend itself to looking extra-rough when being played back on a digital player.even on one as capable as VLC. TV shows are generally among the worst culprits, since the manufacturers needed to squeeze as many shows onto as few discs as possible (to keep costs down). Even without the additional remastering of the Blur-ray version, it clearly handles better on digital screens, while the DVD version look grainy, pixellated, and over-saturated.įor example, a digital rip of the DVD version of "Friends" weighs in at nearly 800MB/show, whereas a digital rip of the Blu-ray version comes in at around 2.4GB/show. Furthermore, when using software de-interlacing, it causes weird motion-blurring and other visual artifacts. Another example is "Frasier," which was one of my favorite television shows. Also, insert your Power Ranger series into your Blu-ray/DVD drive. I own the complete series on DVD, but the video quality of the digital file is so painful to look at I cannot bring myself to watch the files on Kodi or Plex. Install and Launch Follow the below download link to have a free trial of Power Ranger ripping tool for both Blu-ray and DVD, install, and launch it. Furthermore, it can't be re-purchased on Blu-ray, since the studio has held off on releasing one. I fear that a lot of older shows are going to get left as "DVD-only" permanently. Ironically, our Sony Blu-ray player can make just about any of these older DVD shows look good (yes, even Frasier). I've long suspected that there is some additional hardware de-interlacing (or other advanced treatment) being done by the Blu-ray player that yields a superior end-result to DVDs what we cannot simulate through Kodi or Plex at this time. I suspect that something like MadVR's Media Player Classic plugin is what will ultimately be needed to achieve a 1:1 playback experience. I know this is somewhat of an old thread, but just in case somebody else stumbles upon it looking for the same answers. The shortest answer is Makemkv does alter the source dvd video by repackaging into a singular video file which is void of all the garbage you get from ts format on dvd's, but the one thing makemkv does not do, is alter the video quality in anyway shape or form whatsoever.
