1. Re: mpeg2 blueray gives me better quality that H.264 blueray
Igor Valentovitch Jul 14, 2010 8:42 AM (in response to fordchevyman)Hi James,
I read in a video-editing textbook that if you plan to lower the birate for space concerns (to fit more content on a single BD disc) than H.264 format will provide better quality compared to the MPEG-2. But if you can afford to maintain the bitrate high (i.e. 40mbps) than the MPEG-2 will be superior. In other words the more you compress the quality of the original footage the better the H.264 gets compared to MPEG-2. Unfortunatelly, there are no set rules here and everything is detrmined case-by-case by previewing.

I'm not sure about the format of the commercial Blu-Rays but I'm defenetely using MPEG-2 for mine as similar to your observations this gives me the closest image to the original files using the highest possible sampling PrP allows - 40mps.
My cat-polot's helmet is easy to make - use few limes for the helmet and the juce goes into your gin-tonnic.
I'm not sure if Ann Ben's cat is not wearing a helmet too. One never knows these days what cats really are
