  can somebody give a quick help here…

  i want to transcode all my collection from 8 TO 10bit… how do i do that??

  i have no clue whatsoever

  i’ll see if i can reduce the size of my collection at least a 20% from over 600 GB

  i know this is not a help board but …pretty please?? ^-^

  No that is retarded

  clueless: There’s a high probability that these conversions will take a lot of time, that you won’t save that much space, and additionally, that you’ll actually lose some quality in the process nonetheless. However, if you really wish to do it, download the 10-bit version of x264 ( http://x264.nl/ ), make sure that you have AviSynth installed ( http://avisynth.org/mediawiki/Main_Page ) in case there are some files x264 can’t open directly, and then use a command line like { x264 –preset veryslow –crf 17 –output “your-output-here.264” –fps 24000/1001 –sar 1:1 “your-input.here” } (without the brackets, of course). The FPS parameter may vary, and in case of VFR input, you can either let x264 read the timestamps from the file (in this case, just omit the { –fps } parameter completely) or let it read the timestamps from an external timecode_v1 or timecode_v2 file by replacing the { –fps 24000/1001 } parameter with the { –tcfile-in “your-tcfile” } parameter. You will need the timestamps as an external file anyway, so if you decide to let x264 read the timestamps from the file directly, you may want to add a { –tcfile-out “your-tcfile” } parameter (this will write the timecodes x264 reads from the file into an external timecode_v2 file). (Also, you should probably pay attention to keyframes at chapter points, but that’d require effort to explain and I’m tired right now.)
  When you have done that, you will need a program to remultiplex the now created elementary stream with the audio and the subtitles, for that, you probably want to use mkvToolnix ( http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/downloads.html ). Just drag&drop the original media file into the mkvMergeGUI window, uncheck the video stream, add the newly encoded elementary stream via drag&drop to mkvMergeGUI, and set the output file. Of course, you can also change a lot of options, and unless you do some special things it will break Ordered Chapters (once again, I’m tired right now), but then, to create the final file, you just need to hit the “Start muxing” button, and your file with re-encoded 10-bit video is done!

  xD

  isn’t it? but i don’t have money right now to buy another HDD (they way more expensive now)

  is it really that crazy to do that?

  …yes, it is that crazy. There’s a great amount of configuring to be done, and even without that, it will take a LOT (I can’t emphasize that enough) of time just encoding the stuff.
