StaxRip supports DivX Plus HD (MKV/H.264/AAC)

Submitted by porfitron on Tue, 11/24/2009 - 10:41

It looks like the popular open source transcoding tool, StaxRip, has adopted DivX Plus HD compatible presets and encoding the H.264 video via x264 - the final output is an MKV with H.264 video and AAC audio. This is great news for those of you out there that like the convenience of an application GUI, but also like to tune and tweak as you go.

More info is available here:

Thanks Stax, and we're here to answer questions and provide documentation if you're a developer and would like to target DivX Plus HD devices with your software application.

Great Info divx

Actually, I think I read somewhere that resizing to that triggers the HD quality at you too. Perhaps that's the agenda seems the majority here is bootlegged. - The Balancing Act Lifetime

DivX Plus Presets

When you choose DivX Plus in the GUI, in purposely constrains the presets on x264 to be sure that the video is authored within the DivX Plus profile, so it can be played on CE devices that have been DivX Plus HD certified (e.g. Blu-ray players, HDTV, etc.).

If you're trying to make a file you're only ever planning to play on a high-end PC, then you are free to use the unrestricted x264 options, but StaxRip added the DivX Plus option in anticipation of the DivX Plus HD devices that are currently making their way into the people's living rooms (Philips, Seagate...).

And by the way, "DivX HD" is 720p or 1080p .avi or .divx, and "DivX Plus HD" is H.264 and AAC in .mkv.

Thanks for the tip.

Thanks a lot, Stax and DivX! I will be an early adopter. I have rare DVDs, soon I can use the DivX Plus MKV format for most everything. Far out, it's really the most.
