@Oscar2

I have a passing familiarity with the subject - I used to do my own DVD rips (480p, not 375) with handbrake - but I've never worked much with BluRay. I'm familiar with the various containers, and tend to prefer MKV and MP4 in that order. I have managed to successfully do a couple of transcodes that add a subtitle track when I've found the relevant SRT, and a few to convert FLAC audio to MP3/M4A to reduce size of a file.

My main goals at this point are to put together consistent sets for the TV shows I want to keep - most in 720p (starting from a 1080 source) and incorporate SRTs for subs in those files that do not already have them.

I'm assuming that I want to start with a minimally compressed source, but that is just an assumption, and I'd like to know what are the best tools and workflows to get good results. And what are the best tools for downloading the raws from services likes Hulu, Amazon, Apple, or Netflix and the like.

I'm lucky in that I've got a friend who has found scene rips of a lot of things for me when I couldn't find them anywhere else, but I feel guilty asking him for too much.

Does that tell you what you need to know?

To Whomever has been uploading the mid-seventies Disney Live Action films of late...

THANK YOU! It's been a lot of fun to see these.

Any chance the old Medfield High films with Kurt Russel are in the pipeline somewhere?

@Oscar2

Thank you for your suggestions and information - it will be very helpful.

I'm aware that any reencodes will further degrade image quality - it has always been so, since the days of JPG and why all my image scanning is done in TIFF, PSD or PNG.

When I refer to subs I definitely DO NOT mean hard coded - it's one of the reasons that I prefer the MKV (or Apple's M4V) containers - both support integral soft subs that do not carry the need for an external SRT or SUB/IDX files. In such cases my goal is always to just remux the file and fold in the SRT rather than recompress.

Qualitatively I have a tier system - typical shows like CSI and NCIS and other police shows, and most sit-coms and the like don't really warrant anything over 720p - however, when there is HD source, I prefer most of my SF in 1080.

I'm very much looking forward to exploring the tools you've recommended - thank you again for taking the time to answer my questions.

Worse part is, I know of that Archive site... but forget about it when searching a new/ish series (resorted to it for Columbo, U know, older content)! I'll bookmark it now! Thanks.. again!
