Staxrip MKV Encoding Guide
Let's not kid ourselves, even though release groups still stick to the AVI format like glue, it's an outdated format. It's still used so often because so many things support it. For a while now, mkv has been the format for encoding videos. It's able to achieve a very small size with a very high level of detail. If you've spent more than ten seconds in any video section of a download website then you've noticed these reduced-size videos popping up more and more.
Out of everything, you'll see the format used for Anime the most, oftentimes reducing the size of an episode down to just 50-70mb with very little loss in quality. Look at your entire Naruto collection and imagine it being three times smaller.
As you can imagine, knowing how to encode in the format is very valuable if you want to save on space, and not only that it can reduce the upload time of your videos while increasing the number of downloads you get. People really enjoy these videos.
As such, finding guides for it that make any sense is a real pain in the ass. People either get too technical, make it seem too difficult, or don't tell you how to do it at all. Encoding in the format is incredibly simple, as I'll show you in the pictures below.
