The source of Show By Rock!! Mashumairesh!! is just like recent Kinema Citrus shows. High bitrate around 40 Mb/s, delicious grain, no noise, thin lineart and undescalable image. The studio probably applied several post-processing filters to improve the visual quality. Unfortunately, it results in aliasing and non linear lineart. Some are too sharp when some are good enough.
I used an antialiasing and compensative sharpening filter to improve the visual quality. Also, there are few bandings under the grain so I removed them accordingly while preserving the original grain.
It's encoded in HEVC since I can now know how to use it properly.
As for the audio, the bitdepth of the PCM track is in 16 bits but I suspect a mix of 16 ~ 20 bits just like Tate no Yuusha blu-ray. They chose to reduce the bitdepth and allocate more size for the video track, which is a good thing. It's not like y'all *ningen* can hear any differences and anyway it's encoded in AAC using qaac TVBR 127. Maybe one day I'll use opus (^:
Also, stop this FLAC meme. It's a bad one.
Instead, learn how to encode audio correctly.
I always keep the audio as is for openings and endings. I always leave it unaltered. No use in encoding it. **[◯PMan](https://nyaa.iss.one/view/1253046)** also leaves it unaltered. Don't know what types of settings you're using to encode the video to h265, but they shouldn't be that that small. At least use **CRF-18** at a **slow preset,** if you're using **[HandBrake.](https://handbrake.fr/)** Or you could just leave the video as is.
There's plenty reason to still encode audio for NCs. Ultimately, very few users are going to notice a difference in audio quality between FLAC and a good AAC encode, and you'll save 2/3rds the size of it. OPMan still does it because ultimately the filesize price is very little for NCs, but it's by no means "wrong" to go for a lossy option, @Ingenioussubs.
@Ingenioussubs Okay you do things. Now explain why you do this please. Just because ◯PMan and you leave the audio unaltered doesn't justify it's good to do this.
Light clearly said the reason why ◯PMan encode the audio in FLAC although ΣDMan is not as flexible as him on one point.
> very few users are going to notice a difference in audio quality between FLAC and a good AAC encode
None. None users can notice a difference **while watching a video**. It's not humanly possible. You should close your eyes and concentrate, but then you wouldn't be watching a video anymore.
Also, before saying the video shouldn’t be that that small, please download the video before. It's encoded in CRF 15 and thanks, ΣDMan knows what he's doing. He's using Vapoursynth and x265.exe, not this useless Handbrake GUI.
@Ingenioussubs X265 can be used even with virtualdub 2 you know? HEVC Gives more for less, you expected same crfs will bring same file sizes? Hahaha.
I was going to complain against aac but the HEVC encode is more than enough. Thanks!
PS. Keep on using the real meme that has ZERO hardware support. Faggots.
