#Does remux alter quality movie#
There is nothing you can adjust on AppleTV - it will either play the encoded movie or it won't.ĪppleTv's generally playback the h264 codec (in an m4v container) - there are many many versions/levels of this codec and each generation of AppleTv has been able to play slightly more sophisticated versions. I have no experience of the remuxing you describe, but interesting observations.
Trying to figure this out before I continue down this home media server path cuz it's a lot of work to do these Blu's one at a time.
#Does remux alter quality full#
Is there some sort of streaming setting on the ATV3 that needs to be set or adjusted that will allow the full gorgeous pic quality of a 29GB file to stream right through to it, and look better than the Handbrake'd m4v file? It feels like there's a bottleneck somewhere that's not letting all of the complete picture information through, and an intact, perfect 29GB file should look light years better than that 29GB file Handbrake'd down to 4GB. So it seems like the larger file should be even higher quality - but I'm getting better results with a smaller file that's Handbrake'd from MKV to m4v. But I also noticed that the smaller m4v's (say a 3.5GB file that comes from a 9GB MKV file via Handbrake) seem to be slightly better quality than the 9GB file that was remuxed. I'm running a 300mbps cable modem so the streaming shouldn't be a problem over my home wifi. But I noticed that, say, a 29GB MKV file is a much poorer softer picture on my plasma TV than the same movie that's only a 9GB MKV file (remuxed to m4v with subler for streaming over ATV3). But I recently learned about the quick remux method using Subler, which quickly converts the MKV container into an m4v container without any quality loss and while keeping the same size file. I normally do a Handbrake conversion for ATV3, so the MKV files end up being significantly smaller m4v's and the quality is outstanding. I'm slowly building my home media server and putting my Blu-Ray's onto it.
