I was wondering if there is some setting that I might be missing that causes a Netflix season to drastically jump around in quality throughout a season.
For instance, I looking at Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on Netflix. When I rip a season the episodes vary from 500 MB to 2GB and that is ripping it with the following settings:
Video Resolution: 1920x1080
Audio language: English [Original]
Audio Track: 192 kbps DD+ 5.1 5.1
I could see some variances in file sizes with probably say ± 100-200mb, but there's up to 1.5GB gap in between some. When you look at the < 1GB files you can see the artifacting and pixels that occur when you stretch an image to a higher resolution with low file sizes.
I am also aware that it can only grab files that Netflix offers the browser and I’ve matched the videos up with playing it in the browser. The one that Netflix offers the browser is a lot higher quality than it has been downloading,
I'm attaching a copy of the .astlog that it produces as it'll likely give more information. Since I'm not sure if it gives file size that I am seeing as well I'll list here too. I'll also include runtime just in case someone thinks that might be the factor.

I didn't attach all 22 episodes since I figured that might be enough, but if needed I can attach all 5 seasons I've done so far with each having 22 episodes that have the same variances.
