Hi,
For capturing analogue TV shows (yes, old stuff isn't it?), I'm using mencoder and x264. Not sure about what to use for the audio track though. With mencoder, I can only use FAAC and no other AAC encoder, at least without going through a hassle. Now I wonder, is that better or worse than lame at the same bitrate? Bitrate should be around 80 or 96, definitely not above 128 (if using AAC, for lame I'd go with 128 to be on the safe side). I tried looking for information about this, but most sources are from 2005 and therefore not very up-to-date. How does FAAC (1.28) compare nowadays? |

I've encoded, with Handbrake (which uses faac aac encoder), numerous DVDs, with average bitrate of 112 kbit stereo. No problem as far as I can hear.
