    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.

i set the bitrate to 10 as someone suggested anything higher than 3 and this is what i get after exporting

Original quality from camera (obviesly there was movement thats why the bike is blurred but if you look and the walls and what not)
