Remux vs encode reddit. There are many differences between encodes and their respective remuxes, but the whole point of transparency is to produce an encode that looks as close to its remux source in terms of quality as possible so that most people wouldn't be able to tell the two apart. 4K is my default. I have studied the results vs the source files in-depth, and I cannot find any substantial difference in video quality. I'm getting closer to just use MakeMKV and save the mpeg2 stream, instead of encoding to mpeg4/h264. The remux has finer detail, smoother and more uniform. Is it worth to get remux if im kinda trying to save space, is it big difference? I have LG OLED 65 and sit around 3 metres from it. And why would you need to re-encode the video for that?
