[QUOTE="erichzann, post: 894970, member: 116360"] Whenever I use handbrake for 2.0 channel audio I convert to AAC but for anything else I use the Auto Passthru option that is in the latest version. Out of interest, I also spent a long time thinking about converting recordings, cutting out commercials etc. and I played around with lots of solutions including spending ages trying to configure the perfect UK comskip ini file setting up MCE Buddy to do auto conversions etc. In the end, the best decision I ever made was not to bother doing anything with the recorded TV. In terms of the commercials it takes me a couple of seconds to skip them using the remote when watching a recording back and I would never get back the time I would have spent manually cutting them out of the files. In terms of compression, HDD space is so cheap (2TB is back to less than £80) that again I can't see the benefit in encoding them. I would be interested to know how you get on but just thought I would share my views on this. [/QUOTE]
