| In my quest to get the best possible quality files that can be streamed to the PS3 I wanted to try H264 and see if it was worth the CPU cycles for DVD source material. Since this is not an easy task with DVDFab, I thought I would share how to do it. The default PS3 profile is limited to stereo AAC which isn't well suited for home theater use. The short version:
Why not just skip a step and use the generic H264 profile for MKV with audiocopy?
Setup
Code: <profile name="PlayStation 3 - AVI" version="200" device="ps3" tag="dvdfab" description="The profile is used to create avi(h264 + audiocopy) file, which can be played in Playstation 3."> <common> <file format="avi" mode="0" number="1" /> <audio copy="1" /> <video> <size list=""/> <subtitle mode="0" /> <outfps mode="3" value="29.97" list="23.976,24,25,29.97,30" /> <encode codec="h264" fourcc="H264" bitrate_kbps="5000" maxbitrate_kbps="10000" > <mode value="real_time" list="real_time, high_quality" /> </encode> </video> </common> <vcodec name="h264"> <generic profile="0" level="30" /> </vcodec> </profile>
In the end, re-encoding to H264 did not keep the quality I was looking for. If you are a quality junky like me and aren't afraid of the command line then you'll find instructions to make a high quality MPEG2 file from DVD Film content here: http://club.cdfreaks.com/f116/high-q...9/#post2057122 |

| I found that you can get a little better quality by raising the H264 level to 4.1. Here is the changed line from the file above: Quote:

| Does the resulting file stream OK? I tried a similar thing using DVDFab, Handbrake and then mkv2vob to see if I could get rid of the NTSC judder whilst retaining 5.1 audio. The resulting file would play but it wouldn't stream smoothly (even through the bitrate was less than required for a vob/mpg which stream fine). |

The lower the bitrate setting, the smaller the files and the more need for 2-pass encoding. If you use 2-pass on DVDFab then you just have to put up with part of it crashing at the end. It still creates a good AVI file. The key to the profile above for Film content is the forced 23.976fps setting. |
