This might not be the best place for this question but I honestly can’t think of another place, but if you know of one please let me know. But I figured someone here might have the experience I’m looking for.

I own the discs for various Star Trek series and everything Stargate. What I’m trying to do is use handbrake to encode them to put them on Plex. But everything I try, it just looks worse. Is there a repository of like recommended settings for various media?

Software encoding (Your CPU) will always provide better quality than your GPU, especially if your GPU is older. Sadly it’s much slower but beware what you’re using to encode (video tab, drop down with the 264, 265, 10bit, etc. stuff. NVENC would be an nvidia GPU)
