Re-encoding from an already re-encoded file would cause additional loss. There are lossless modes for H264 and, I think, HEVC. But the bit rates are insane. If this is the original rip, as long as your encoding settings aren't stupid, the loss in quality would be minimal.

Each time you encode with a lossy format, you lose some quality.

Yeah, lossless for both H264 & HEVC is achieved with the CRF set to 0.

I would try re-encoding with sane values. You can play back the final encode(s) to see if you're happy with the outcome. This will probably be the easiest solution unless someone comes and shows how to edit the video's playback resolution without re-encoding.

RE: Jellyfin detects wrong aspect ratio - White - 2024-02-26

Currently I only rip using MakeMKV and don't do any further encoding / reencoding. Maybe I will try that. But currently I'm curious why the Android Jellyfin App can't play back a file which is touched bei MKVToolnix. But the Webplayer is able to do it.

This is the log file that is getting created when trying to playback the mkv in Android.

Edit: I now picked a file made a copy of it and simply opened it in MKVToolNix and saved it (without making any changes my myself). The fresh saved file is then not playable by the Jellyfin Android App (it buffers endlessly)
I then installed "MediaInfo" and saved the info from both files and made a diff. I see severall changes in the file which I did not expected to see.
