VLC seems to stutter a lot so I recommend playing the full quality file with MPV. I did an initial DNxHR 444 12 bit encode of all 6 reels into a single file with Davinci Resolve. That file came out to 927GB. Then I did a x265 12 bit encode with Handbrake because I always seem to have issues with 265 encoding in Resolve. I had problems with the DTS track from the bluray so it won’t be included. Idk if it’s my bluray disc or what but every time I convert the DTS track into a wav file it gets messed up.
Handbrake is far better than Resolve when it comes to h265, especially if you set “tune” to “grain” under the Encoder Options.
Will the scan hypothetically sync up with the blu-ray audio track? Because I can try muxing them together. Shouldn’t be too difficult with MKVToolNix (and the DTS track doesn’t necessarily need to be converted to wav).
I’m pretty sure I have to convert it to wav because Resolve doesn’t support MKV or MKA files, at least for editing. And if I just rencode everything at 23.98 FPS so I can just attach it in Handbrake or MKVToolNix, I don’t know if it will end up slightly out of sync. When I convert it to wav, the audio starts when Napoleon and Pedro are talking about Pedro’s bike for some reason. But the MKA file is perfectly fine. When I do V2 sometime later I’ll do a test encode at 23.98 and attach the MKA in MKVToolNix to see if it’s out of sync.
I gave converting to wav a shot (via ffmpeg) and got a size limit error. Maybe that’s been your issue? I then converted the blu-ray audio to flac, and it seemed fine when I checked it out in Resolve. Here’s the 5.1 flac: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Z2Dw6PJ-En1sq1CfZhFjmN2QVTvDXjlA/view?usp=sharing
