  1. AegiSub as Baal stated is the ONLY program you should be using for ASS-styled subs.

    True true.Sorry about that AegiSub will be better with Styled subs.

    @Bakymono

    It's only mkvmerge that gives that weird file size when you extract the subs (No big deal), as JohnFlower said it might be fonts or some crap. If you are going to do a lot of sub editing I would recommend getting mkvcleaver to extract subtitles.

    The question about saving in only .ass , I think AegiSub only saves to .ass (correct me if I'm wrong). Why would you want to change your subtitle format? you will loose the styling. If you really want to change the format subtitle edit will do the job.

  2. All in all encoding is a learning process,in time you should be able to know what each setting does there is no standard encode settings, practice makes perfect start by doing the same encode as someone else and see if  can better it. On the setting part start by learning how deblocking, aq, qcomp, psy_rd works. You might find some useful guides for mini encodes at www.minitheatre.org also try their vafe encoder (very nice for someone starting to use filters)  also a filters guide I found useful is http://www.aquilinestudios.org/avsfilters/index.html

  3. That's why I said the source is the most important part, if you use sparks 720p (Enders Games) and use the above media info for you settings you should basically get the same result. The most important part is the bit-rate/crf you chose, that depends on the movie, example the amount of action scenes, duration of the film and the actual output file size you want. (Example look at nItRo's 720p re-encode of Pacific Rim, the video didn't nearly have enough bit rate for a movie like that)


    The question is what do you want to encode, live-action shows or anime/cartoon? Older media is always problematic...Usually needs filters to make it look good, especially if you want to do mini encodes.

  4. ^ It can't be that hard to mimic a release like nItRo's Enders Game, you should be able to get the same result if you insert the settings as displayed in the media info into Megui. The most important part is the source files, try using the same source and settings and see how it compares, nItRo is a mass encoder so I highly doubt he uses a lot of filters maybe just a few quick standard ones to drop a little file size like TemporalSoften etc.
