EDIT: I've decided against this. Instead of re-encoding with even more quality loss, I've just extracted the raw M2V/AC3 streams from the DVD and muxed them into a .MKV.
So here's the deal. I have a DVD of my favorite movie. It was never a popular movie, and it was never released in HD either on TV or Blu-Ray.
I want to encode it for use on my Plex server, and I found if I play back the video in VLC using the Sharpen filter (just slightly) with a value of around ~0.15, it looks quite a bit better with no noticeable defects.
I want to try to encode it to a different format with this minor sharpening applied. What would be the best way to approach this?
This is a one-off deal, I don't care about ever doing this to another movie.. but I want to get the best quality copy I can get from the only available source.
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!
