MediaCoder

Thanks for the extra info, Rodger. Glad you're getting on OK with the CUDA encoding. I'm all ATI here so don't have the luxury. Don't forget to post a working preset to help out others who may be struggling with it.

128kbps really was the original audio quality that bad, to butcher it even further with 128kbps

If you have ears that can hear a difference between 128kbps and 320kbps soundtracks without HQ headphones on, you've got some good ears there. I have high selective hearing loss, so even if there were some difference to be heard, I doubt I'd hear it.

Here's a little test, let us know how well you did on it WITHOUT headphones

Anyone who has been following this thread, thinking about doing the same, I've posted the preset I've been using. I'll not go into it here, as I've already covered the info in my preset post. Hope it can help some of you.

Here's a direct link:

Maybe your poor success with selecting audio ID in some discs is related to the build you use (4703 according to your preset).
Build 4700 and probably 4703 needs its version of FFmpeg, etc, replaced by those from 4640.

Anyhow, glad you have a solution that works.

on the audio error: what is a very good idea when using mediacoder, i only coding this way since a time, is to never encode together the audio and the video. i rather do them one after another, and then manually mux them together. it might worth a try in such situations as well, (tho for me the error was only that audio was only 1-2 minute long then quiet, or simply stop with error).

and a comment on the settings: 160 instead of 128 for 5.1 audio, enabling HE, and using nero instead of faac would probably boost quality a lot, without the size of 320.
