Re: Is ripping 4K Blu Rays Practical?
Haha, the 3900X is no slouch compared to other 8 cores CPUs, it's actually a happy medium between price and performance. I went overboard with the 5950X because I'm not upgrading for another 10 or even maybe 15 years.midnighwatcher wrote: ↑Fri Dec 31, 2021 3:19 amI only have a 3900X, so it's slightly longer. I bet a 5950X cuts through it like butter! 😀roflmaonowhow wrote: ↑Fri Dec 31, 2021 2:30 amHoly crap, that must take a seriously long time to encode! Curious what your PC setup is like, you'd need something like the Threadripper CPU to crush through those 4k files. I have a 5950X and am able to get a 4k file done in Handbrake anywhere between 1 to 4 hours. I wouldn't be doing it if it took any longer.midnighwatcher wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 7:39 pmI have 5 x 8TB HDDs. All of my blurays are re-encoded with Handbrake (I'm now re-encoding w/ H265 @ 10-bit which provides superior quality with reduced banding, and re-encode all non-Atmos and non-DTS:X audio tracks using AAC at high quality), so my average file is between 5GB - 8GB per movie. I also rip all of my 4K blurays, most are 1:1 copies, but sometimes I use Handbrake to re-encode titles to get them down from 50-80GB to 15-25 GB without any perceptual difference in video quality.
I have about 1300 movies (350+ are 4K) and still room for more.

Re: alexcoluzzi32@gmail.com - UHD "Friendly" and "Official" Drive Sales & Service (remote flashing/troubleshooting)
Bought the official LG 4K drive "WH16NS60" from Alex and couldn't be happier. This drive is amazing. I've ripped like four 4k discs so far and they were super fast. I ripped Apocalypse Now which was an 88 GB file in less than an hour! I even ripped a regular bluray and that 30 GB file only...

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Guide Updated 2019
I have a basic question and I apologize in advance if this has been addressed before. Currently as it stands in the market there is no UHD 4K BR internal drive ready to read 4k discs right out the gate, right? You have to get one of these UHD friendly drives and flash a firmware to even just read th...

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Guide Updated 2019
So I have a silly question and forgive me if this has been asked before, currently as it stands there is no pre-flashed already working UHD 4k BR internal drive that works right out the gate for just reading 4k BRs? You have to get UHD friendly drives and flash them to some firware to be able to rea...
