So I know this has probably been posted before and other have pointed out re encoding is the fix. My question is how do I re-encode without it taking hours, and being reformatted at the same time?
I tried using MedaCoder and it reformatted which is not what I wanted, and it dropped the size down nearly 10GB. I also tried CoolSoft Level editor, but that literally didn’t do anything. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Here’s the media info:
