MakeMKV Change Codec Used

#1 Post by didjit86 » Sun Oct 18, 2009 10:36 am

Is there a way to change the codec MakeMKV uses? The coded used (mpeg-2) will not play in my DLNA device, hence I need to trans-code (to h264) in Handbrake.

Tx

MakeMKV does not "use" any codecs, it merely repackages content into MKV container. If your source is a DVD disc you'll get an mpeg-2 video. Handbrake is the best method to convert.
