Hi folks,
Wanted to share the settings that have been working on my 2019 Tahoe with single overhead DVD player rear entertainment system. I have a USB port behind the main centerstack display, two in the center console, and two in the 2nd row media center.
I am using Handbrake to convert movies I have downloaded. So far, dimensions of 720x568 and 1280x568 have worked but 720 results in black bars on the side. Here are the parameters I'm using:
Format: MP4 (also saving as .mp4 and not .m4v)
Video codec: MPEG-4
Framerate: 30
Avg Bitrate: 4000 kbps with 2-pass encoding
Audio codec: AAC
Converting a 1:40 (h:m) movie takes about 30 mins and takes up almost 4gb. I will be messing around with the bitrate and constant quality settings to find a balance between quality and decreasing the file size.
I haven't been able to get my 64gb Fat32 drive to work but got a 4gb drive working. Will be trying a 32gb drive soon.
