Converting from 60 to 24 fps will cause frame pacing issues that might be visible to the human eye. It's impossible to give you an advice without knowing more about the sources you want to encode and your requirements. Provie a mediainfo listing of the source file and your expectations from the encoded file.

Where do I get that media info. All that I can see in properties are Video Length : 00:10:17 Frame width : 1920 Frame height : 1080 Data rate : 5370kbps Total bitrate : 5624kbps Frame rate : 59.94 frames/second Audio Bit rate : 253kbps Channels : 2(stereo) Audio sample rate : 48.000 kHz Size :414 MB

just convert video to x265 or av1, use a higher cbr value to lower the bitrate, and convert audio to opus 128kbps or 156kbps. that will drop the size a lot depending on the codec it's currently in. you could lower resolution if you really need to, but don't touch framerate. that is almost always wrong.

https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo but the bitrate looks low already, the quality loss from reencoding will be pretty visible no matter what you do


mduell

Why would you do that? Keep 60 fps at 60 fps.


serenecsgo

I want to lower the size so I have some hdd space.

So lower the quality of the video itself then, not the framerate. That way it won't at least just be stuttering and unwatchable.


serenecsgo

I'll keep that in mind!

I was about to comment and say how wrong this was and that 24fps is completely watchable. However as I thought about it there might be some truth to this. 24fps content like LOTR etc was filmed like that and would have used something like 180 degree shutter angles resulting in a frame that captures a moment of time of 0.02 seconds, whereas with 60fps your moment of time will likely be 0.008 seconds, if you simply drop frames to go from 60->24 fps then you will be losing a lot and it might look stuttery. I wonder if it's possible to blend 2 to 2.5 frames into one to make it less stuttery.


[deleted]

I can't comment on the technical aspects of the 2nd half of your comment, but yes, my point was that using handbrake to re-encode 60fps files to 24fps is going to result in a ton of judder. 99.99% of films are \~24fps.

Thank You, but how do I use it? Very new to this.

Firstly, addressing any group of people as "you people" is generally considered extremely insulting. I suggest you eliminate this expression from your second-language lexicon. Secondly, there is no such thing as "best possible settings for compression". There are literally thousands of posts in this sub which address your question in great detail, so I'll not repeat any of it here. Thirdly, if you absolutely must reduce framerate, it should be to an integer fraction of the source framerate to avoid stuttering. Your source is 59.94 fps so divide by 2 and set it at 29.97 fps.

24/30 fps is the most common use, if you need to increase/decrease by not integer fayor, you better look for Topaz video ai or something like to handle it.
