HandBrake

Is that log from an encode using the exact same settings? The prior screenshot didn't have any filters run on it?

What does the same frame in the source video look like?

People who support developers who give back to the community buy StreamToMe, not AirVideo.

Um....did you not read my post which you quoted? None of this is in HandBrake's code.

It will not preserve the sub-channel if you do DD5.1 -> DPL2 because it can lead to interference. However, the reason it leads to interference is that LFE data is also usually present in other channels, so it's not like you lose all use of the subwoofer. If you do DPL2->DPL2 it will skip mixing down...

Lifehacker knows absolutely nothing about video encoding or HandBrake and that article is a joke.

Considering the amount of effort required to get you to follow the forum rules and provide a log, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that you never mentioned you were using the deblocking filter. Which is single-threaded. And only for really low quality input. Why are you even using it?

Wouldn't the issue be with the level signalled in the video stream, not the container? Pretty sure the OP needs to hex edit the x264 header to signal 3.1 instead of 5.1, the old default.

Something to keep in mind regarding making the nightlies more visible... Nightlies get downloads in the hundreds or thousands. We put them up on the front page, we could be talking millions. That creates a huge support load, and somewhat defeats the purpose of having nightlies. They let us rapidly r...

There is practically no code capable of being accelerated that way in our project, Most enormous [Censored] i read in the past 2 years. A GPU is capable of doing a [Censored] of atomic (!) operations per second, MUCH more than a standard CPU will ever dream of - hence EVERY CODE YOU CAN THINK OF fi...

As soon as I tried the "Iphone & Ipod Touch" profile, and even the "iPhone Legacy" profile, the video played fine - no stutters, no choppiness and completely "decombed". Or, far more likely, it's just shrunk down to so few pixels you can't see the combing or the ma...

Thanks a lot for not providing a sample that could be included in our testing library.

An anticipation of this sort of patch, foreshadowed here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=8252#p45680

DTS getting Apple to go to the trouble of including the spec in the format and then not bothering to release their own methodology to get it to work? Forgive me if I'm being a bit dumb, but if Apple have set out a standard for using DTS and DTS-MA in mp4/m4v, shouldn't that imply that the AppleTV a...

The trailing space being....?

We have coding conventions. They are on the wiki.

I'd like to add something like this at some point, with file output, in order to allow re-use of combing statistics for a source on future encodes, to save processing time. Of course I've used debugging lines like this during development (see https://trac.handbrake.fr/browser/trunk/libhb/decomb.c#L5...

There's not any reliable way to tell you in advance. That's why there's decomb. Every frame has to be examined. Other tools cheat and make these decisions off of tangentially related but unreliable criteria like framerate and picture type flags. In scan I'm just doing a very basic visual examination...

No, the trac roadmap doesn't contain any blockers for 0.9.5. The reason there aren't any current tickets: 1) The way it usually works is that a month or two before a release, we do a feature-freeze and start consolidating extant bug reports into tickets, which then get checked off as we ramp up. Thi...

Now that ripping dvd's are legal if you use it for educational purposes, such as ripping your owned dvd (not rented) dvd to your ipod or whatever, can you guys put the code back in both the mac and windows version of handbreak? I love how you couldn't even be bothered to read the exemption announce...

Very much doubt that's it, Rodeo. My guess is it's libswscale. Color conversion happens in devav*.c. We're telling it to get a sws_context for YUV422P -> YUV420P. But if you look at sws_getContext() from libswscale, you'll see that it finds out the source's value range like so: 00746 srcRange = hand...

Err....modern "iDevices" support high profile h.264 at a sufficient level for the resolutions they support, and HandBrake's default settings are not even intended for mobile devices. You are not making a valid point.

The message seems to be: don't make feature requests in the feature requests forum that our software design makes difficult to implement or you'll be treated like a moron. Feature requests forum is reserved for developers already familiar with the codebase. Not at all. But when you get an admittedl...

And besides, what the [censored] is the [censored] point of continuing if the file is going to be [censored] from that point on? What's the [censored] point in not reporting it to the [censored] user in some [censored] fashion but carrying on as if everything's fine? Obviously it stops as soon as i...

Queuing is handled by each interface separately. They maintain lists of encodes and the core lib just processes each encode job it is given with no sense of what comes before or after (except for multiple pass encodes). We used to have it handled in core but it made things a lot less flexible for th...

I guess it's up to Apple. Err...Apple's already done its duty as the registrar for MP4 by processing DTS Inc.'s request to register DTS and DTS-HD audio as allowed codecs in the file format: http://www.mp4ra.org/codecs.html You should to be complaining to DTS for not opening up their implementation...

The latest x264 is almost always going to produce the best results. We stay very up to date with it thanks to dynaflash's vigilance. Use the nightly builds of HB to benefit from this. HB detects the FPS in various ways. It gets information from libavformat when it parses file inputs. It gets other i...
