HandBrake

Oh the file is OK, I haven't had time to look at it yet, sorry.

Thanks for the heads-up!

Nope, it does decyrpted full disk backups too. https://www.makemkv.com/faq/item/4

Can s/Handbrake/MakeMKV rip DVDs to a directory format? No.

You'd want something like MakeMKV.

That won't work either, it makes MKV files, not straight rips.

Does the folder "Ready for Subler" exist?

This does look like it might be our bug in the MPEG demuxer. Assuming it is indeed, should be fixable, but could you provide a short sample (just a few seconds) source for us to test? You can use Dropbox or similar.

Try "bframes=0" (without quotes).

The preset may have been configured for maximums of 720x480; Blu-Rays would go to 720xH because they use square pixels, whereas DVDs use not-square pixels and would always fit within 720 by 480, no height reduction needed.

So what your saying is using film/grain presets for encode will cause conflict with nlmeans?

nlmeans is meant to remove grain, the film and grain encoder tunes are meant to preserve grain. The rest is self-explanatory.

How this one got past moderation...

Moderator logs will let you know who to blame, if you feel so inclined

You can use more launch jobs once you know HandBrake builds correctly, one job is only useful when troubleshooting build-related issues. --quality <value> is correct for constant rate factor ("quality-based") encoding, but (FWIW) then --two-pass --turbo is ignored since quality-based encoding is a s...

Code: Select all

You're attempting to encode at 14 kilobits per second…

That is odd indeed, but what we probably need in this particular case is a build log (build/log/build.txt). Also the log will be a lot more readable if you build with --launch-jobs=1

Handbrake uses a couple of libraries for decoding the structure of VOB and other DVD-related files. There is a separate library that can work with the libraries handbrake uses, that does the decryption and removes some other forms of copy protection. […] that does the decryption but doesn't remove ...

Also, commercial DVDs are encrypted, and HandBrake doesn't do decryption, you need to use other software for this.

Thanks for all of your help. Seems a bit out of my league. I was able to open in quicktime, and export giving me a file able to be compressed with handbrake as we search for a more elegant solution. The tl;dr is that your BlackBox software/hardware is creating invalid MP4 files (i.e. it creates an ...

So BlackMagic is creating invalid files apparently. I wonder how VLC manages to play it correctly?

Good catch, I didn't have time to actually test it.

Can you provide the SRT file you used above?

Probably fixed in a nightly build: https://handbrake.fr/nightly.php

Looks like the audio is being mis-detected as big-endian when it's actually little-endian. Funnily enough, my browser also seems to play static with this sample, when VLC and QuickTime Player seem to detect endianness correctly somehow.

Can you provide a short sample of the source we could look at?

You're supposed to get both, and the log confirms your QSV-enabled hardware is detected and should be usable. Not sure why the user interface isn't showing the encoders in the drop-down…
