For ripping DVDs I use & recommend Handbrake. Also, setting Detelecine and/or Deinterlace might help with the issue you're encountering.

Last I checked it's mostly automagical nowadays, be sure you have latest MPC-HC with LAV filters and install that MAD VR, it must then be selected in the options, Playback -> Output, if all is installed correctly it will be an option in the render outputs. The filter will install in your MPC-HC folder. From there you can also access the control panel without starting MPC-HC itself (because the render filter obviously needs a playing video file before it can activate otherwise...)

Once you play a movie you will notice a new active taskbar icon next to the LAV filters, click on the MAD icon and go to control center, set upscaling to SSIM for normal movies, and Spline for SD Anime (you gotta switch that around and see whether you like SSIM or Spline more) be sure to also check chroma scaling options.

I am a religious fan of MADVR in combination with MPC-HC so yeah, I haven't encoded a DVD in years, I image them and play them back as-is, can't really top that image quality. (well, for a SD source).

But for my 5 anime DVD's which I treasure very much, I actually went through teh trouble and did what I described above, once I had it ripped with inverse telecine (IVTC) active and encoded in 10bit x.264+ I was really happy with the result, though the file was pretty large after upscaling, it really looked like native HD. Anime with clean lines works really well with Spline36 for resizing to 720p (never used it above that)

Ps.: The reason you don't find anything for AVS is that I was short-handing that, sorry, its proper name is AVISYNTH (it can produce AVS files, which is where the name comes from, which are very useful for many reasons...)

and "x.264 encoder" is literally the one VLC made available
http://www.videolan.org/developers/x264.html

The world of video encoding is very complex though, I think it's better to have a powerful render filter instead ;p Also makes most SD sourced videos actually look pretty decent, but if the image has encoding artifacts don't expect much.

Thing with encoders is that if you really want superb quality, you need to fully understand each setting. And I have no such understanding for x265 so I would never recommend it. That's really only reason. I know how to encode in x.264 in cmd line and how to resize in AVS and that's good enough for my use cases ^^

So I don't really know if it's ready tbh

Thank you so much! props and +1 for the help and everyone else! This is pretty much what I was looking for! great stuff

I did link to MadVR.. just sayin'....

i know i see it , some reason i had to clear my cache for your response to show up. but thanks a lot! after work i am going to install it and try it out

How about you make an image of disc instead of ripping it?

BTW Handbrake is the best if you want to rip movies.
It's very easy and there are few good guides available around.
Quality ripping is time consuming and very hardware dependent.

You can use this tutorial

It uses RedFOX Any DVD HD and Handbrake

I heard of this redfox thing before, how is it compared to makemkv?

No idea. AFAIK both are different things.

I seen this one here do you know anything about it???

It looks interesting as it does backups so that means rips the disc? I am still looking into this but getting not much info around the web. but it was mentioned as one of the best on this site.
