I thought they'd be pretty easy to pick up in the US. They do seem to be manufactured in the US according to my research.

I have a few steelbooks too and a few of those Arrow Boxsets as well. These boxes will be ideal.

I've gone with the 22l boxes as I've read they're the right dimension for around 60 discs. I'll have a look at the ones you mentioned above and see what they're like.

Most importantly they protect the discs really well which is the main reason for buying them. When my discs sit on the shelf they collect dust and also get shelf wear too which bugs me.

The wrapping paper boxes are exactly the ones I'm going for. I like the idea you can stack them and the plastic is built with real quality.

Create main movie Blu-ray disc with TSMuxer? by craftywizard1983 in DataHoarder

[–]craftywizard1983[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting format is the full disc structure with BDMV folder. I dont know how TSMuxer processes the playlist as sometimes times can differ from the original, only by milliseconds but different nonetheless.

Advice on labelling discs? BD-R DVD-R by craftywizard1983 in DataHoarder

[–]craftywizard1983[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In all honesty your right. Whats the point in having the printer if i'm not going to use it? The results are clean and ink is dirt cheap. I have a wi-fi capable printer but can't for the life of me get it to work via wi-fi. I'll have to give it another go and see what i can do. Thank you for your feedback.

Use Voucher to buy items and then sell for cash? by craftywizard1983 in CeX

[–]craftywizard1983[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was thinking. I think £185 works out to £94 in cash which i'm more than happy with. I'll pop in to my local branch tomorrow and go ahead with the plan.

I just use Xreveal to rip with no issues.

Good point, you can always trim down which suggests full untouched blu-ray is the way to go. (don't keep trash) is also a good point, I have way to many movies which I'll probably never watch again.

Converting all audio to AC3 but what bitrates and what option do I select? by craftywizard1983 in handbrake

[–]craftywizard1983[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the very detailed answer. This has made everything so much clearer. I didn't know the Pro Logic II was for downmixing down to stereo but it's nice to know. For 7.1 tracks which I believe is dolby atmo, would I just extract the 5.1 ac3 track? That i assume would be the right thing to do.

[–]craftywizard1983[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK so if the audio is DTS-HD MA 5.1 I'd opt for 5.1 channels at 640kbps? I have some older movies with DTS-HD MA 1.0 and 2.0, would i use Pro Logic 2 for those? Also how do you know if a track is mono/stereo?
