Dred_furst posted:What is wrong with mkv, seems to have a lot more support nowadays, the last amp I bought will quite happily decodes 5.1 flac out of mkv files???? mkvs are alright for high def movies with dts/atmos tracks and weirdo subs, but standard def tv show are just h.264 video and aac audio that were sourced from mp4 to begin with half the time mkv dont play in ios, tvos, quicktime, safari, firefox, ie or edge and cannot be imported in finalcut or premiere also they seek like poo poo and don't show thumbnails on plex on the appletv4

Mr.Radar posted:the last ac3 patents finally expired so now we're one step closer to viewing and authoring dvds in a fully -approved manner (the last mpeg-2 patents expire early next year). also, the last mp3 patent expires next month so you can finally tell turbonerds that ogg vorbis no longer serves any purpose in this world and they can get stuffed for suggesting it (tho thats already been true since opus was standardized...). i was excited, then i saw that AC4 is part of the ATSC 3.0 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_AC-4 Lutha Mahtin posted:do people really store their lossy audio in some turbonerd format instead of mp3 lel i download flac just to transcode to aac using ffmpeg -c:a libfdk_aac

fishmech posted:its real bad that tvs still come set up with overscan by default, it looks like real garbo my tv has uncorrectable overscan, no menu options at all i did figure out it will display correctly if it has an hdmi signal without sound so laptop >hdmi cable> TV = overscan with sound but laptop > displayport to dvi > dvi2hdmi > hdmi cable > TV = no overscan and no sound

wouldn't that be the same as setting your tv to "vivid" or some other bullshit setting

i thought 4:2:2 was bad and 4:4:4 is better because the numbers are bigger
