This article aims to solve this problem from the forum: How to rip episodes from Blu-ray disc to specific video format. More info are below.
"Hello,
I want to use a profile with the settings below:
- Can i encode it with VIDCODER like the encode-config below or not?
- i know, how to create a profile in Vidcoder but i have a problem to recreate the config below in vidcoder cause not every option is named like in the config below.
Please explain to me, how i can create a profile like this. Thank you. I prefer Vidcoder instead of Handbrake, cause Vidcoder is for me more transparent with its options. I have no experiences with other encoding-software like handbrake + vidcoder.
