Any suggestions which tools/options I should use for transcoding 10 to 8 Bit? My goal is to write a small shell script that can batch convert exclusive Hi10p stuff to something I can enjoy on my XBMC 11.0 box. I've tried to compile XBMC myself only to notice that I won't get any hw acceleration, so this is no satisfying option for me (at least not for Hi10p 1080p stuff).
Right now, I use the following commands for conversion (using both x264 and mkvtoolnix from the ubuntu repos):
x264 --threads=auto --tune animation --preset veryfast --profile high --level 4.1 --crf 16 -o "$TEMPFILE" "$INPUT"
mkvmerge -o "$OUTPUT" -D "$INPUT" "$TEMPFILE"
i am very interested in this since something like this might be the only solution for me ...
but i have another problem ... i use an automated system of sb and sab
and it appears that not every release group mentions if it is 10-bit or 8-bit in the title
so what i need is a way to find out if the current file is in 10-bit or 8-bit and act accordingly with either enolive code or another handbrake cli cmd
my question is has anyone figured out a way find out if a file is in 10-bit from the cli ?
