The votes are in, and there is a clear preference for .mkv with DTS audio. There is also an interest in the .mp4 files, as well as PCM for lossless audio. Based upon these results, I plan to offer files in the following formats:
| Container | Codec | Profile | Level | Bitrate | Audio | Audio Bitrate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| .mp4 | h.264 | High | 4.0 | 12 Mbps | AC3 5.1 | 640 kbps |
| .mkv | h.264 | High | 4.1 | 20 Mbps | PCM 5.1 DTS 5.1 AC3 5.1 | Lossless 1536 kbps 640 kbps |
This should meet the needs of almost all of those who voted – except for those who prefer FLAC. The next files to be posted will feature the specs indicated above. Thank you for taking the time to submit your preferences, and I hope that you will be happy with the format changes.
Excellent! Thank you!
