    The difference between DTS-HD MA and DTS Surround is that DTS-HD MA is compressed losslessly, meaning that no data has been removed from the original audio master. DTS Surround is compressed lossy, meaning that the audio has lost data, and should sound "worse". You can hear a difference if you have some very high-end speakers, but if you're hearing it through some InEars, you can't.

    The DTS is the DVD audio about 1mb something like that and the DTSMA is the HD audio usually you get 8 MB big difference in audio quality. I usually rip the non HD audio just because it depends what you are going to play the ripped file on not every device supports the HD audio.

    Hi. I've been having an issue lately (never used to have this issue) where my ripped blu ray MOVIE files are coming out where the scenes jump around out of order. 47 Merers down part 2 and Rambo 5. Scene will cut to a further part of the movie then after a few minutes jump back to another scene. Or cut out parts completely. Any idea why this is happening? I'm using windows 10.

      Hey, mate is not a ripping pool it hasn’t been for years they took the depression part out the install separate library to the truck with handbrake. Nowadays is your handbrake up-to-date handle is the transporting tool it’s meant to change the format i.e. compressed into some format that’s easily portable to take on your phone your tablet your laptop doesn’t have a DVD drive Make him use the trans clothing, and OK, technically by definition are changing it from one thing to another will ripping up example one to one copy of whatever format almost generally on a DVD is going to be empty but that’s what the motion industry makes the phone ser the commercial videos and it’s going to stay in that format. It’s only all it’s been taking it off the DVD and putting it in an MKG container, it’s not changing the format. It’s moving it from a DVD container to an MJV container on your hard drive or whatever on the USB where you put it and I don’t really understand how you think handbrake is faster being handbrake is actually compressing I mean I don’t believe handbrake have the ability to be a completely lost copy one for one copy of the DVD anymore, maybe if you add the library for whatever computer using the handbrake will work that way, but make him say he is really only limited by the speed of optical drive. Tropical drivers is how fast it makes them rip your DVD or your blue because it’s not changing it. It’s simply reading it and saying it in a different container, unless you wanna buy a tool that does the whole job efficiently and I have one of those windows but it was always common practice the great TV and really wanted to put it in to say container but that involves losing quality anything you do with that after you rip it with MK he is going to lose quality There’s no way anybody tell you different they’re lying to you compression which is what happens when you transcode is going to result in loss of quality. Just like upscaling doesn’t add anything except pixels the color in with what around them I mean the high level, you know no devices that up in an impossible way, but mostly I’m stealing is simply looking at the color of the pixel on the right, left top and bottom and coloring the pixel inside of it in the same color Remastering add content all they do is take whatever graphics it is and steal them to a higher level of graphics laugh it may have been have some so AI intelligent involved but he can’t do anything about it is there or is there compression is just the compression is the inside which means it must lose quality. There is no other way to compress something Without losing something you can’t please a quart of water into a 12 ounce cup. Well that’s not true that that’s a different concept of good pressurize and I guess why you can’t shrink it you can just make it fit you have to compress it. Maybe compression involves loss of qualitymake MKV is the opposite. It doesn’t one for one copy leaving the format of whatever’s on the desk intact other than letting you select titles and the content you want copy it doesn’t change the content in anyway it just compartmentalize it in an MKV container.

      You can always know which file is the feature based on the size. The feature is always the largest file on the disc. As for the flashes, I'm not sure.

    And by the way, you’re conflating containers and formats, they’re not the same thing you can put an MP4 format for instant MKV container. I know a big confusing it very confusing they are people, but I am OK by the MTV program is simply at container the format of the DV, or the hallway is unchanged, that’s what you handled for is the translated into a smaller complex format so the store and carry around but make does not really changing from my DVD contain container code
