• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • 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.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

what settings would you do for the best quality encode of a .mov file?

I have pretty much all the codecs. I am currently messing around with x264 but cannot seem to find the right settings.

Thanks

ok...i have NO idea if I'm doing it 'right' or the best way, but i'll post what I chose to do after doing a bit of research myself. I'd love to also have other peoples feedback as well to see if I should change it up also.

i think one important factor is what your end result with the footage? burning dvd's or youtube uploads? mine is primarily for youtube instructional videos. here is what I have mine set at:
