High Definition MBluRay x264 Standards
Addendum for Revision 4.0 :: 2019-03-29

[ Intro ]
This isn’t ment to change the current x264 ruleset, altho it’s long overdue. The last few weeks there have been some discussions mainly about dirstructure and tagging. In this addendum we as mbluray groups will make it for everyone easy what to use and what to do. This ruleset will only target Music BluRay sourced 720p, 1080p, 2160p and COMPLETE concerts/documentaries rips.
