You didn’t say anything about other settings.
set x264 Preset to “Very Slow”
set x264 Tune to “Animation” or set x264 Tune to “Film” etc.
set H.264 Profile to “High”
set H.264 Level to “Auto”
Anyway, Avg bitrate of 500 for 30 minutes is enough imo to get great quality rips at low size, It is the settings I’m using too and I’m very satisfied.
If movie is 2 hours long you will put Avg bitrate of 2000 then of course etc, etc.
If sth in the middle just calculate.
Also, even for 1920×1080 you can use what I said above, you don’t need to raise Avg bitrate.
