Two years ago, I set up a Plex server to host my media for the house and a few relatives. I dutifully ripped my entire DVD collection with DVDFab Ripper using the Passthrough MKV option, resulting in 480p and 480i video files with bitrates between 8mbps and 10mbps. Now with several StreamFab licenses, I'm considering replacing those rips with1080 downloads of the same videos. Unfortunately, those downloaded videos have considerably lower bitrates than the rips. In terms of output quality, is one better than the other? (Note that telling me to view both isn't a great answer. I can't see them side-by-side, and it's too tough to compare them by playing the videos sequentially. Also, bandwidth isn't an issue.)
