HandBrake

Encode log please.

Why are you scaling to 58 x 32 pixels?

The x265 encoder requires at least 64 x 64 pixels, apparently.

It's not possible to resume after quitting the application; too much data in RAM that cannot be serialized. If you really need to pause an encode, then you cannot quit HandBrake, logout or reboot your computer.

And also, please try a snapshot build from https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake-snapshots it has a subtitle-related fix that may help with this.

That being said, I'm pretty sure HandBrake does not support VCD/SVCD folder structures anyway.

HandBrake can open a folder of individual files (each files gets mapped to one title), but ISO image can contain multiple titles, so what you're trying to do won't work (as far as HandBrake is concerned, an ISO image is basically a folder in its own right).

Be aware that if you set a chapter change that does NOT have a full-screen scene change, playback can be screwy. I guess what you mean is if the chapter doesn't coincide with a video keyframe (that's not quite the same thing) :-) Note that as long as you do your chapter changes before encoding with...

The preset's advanced options changed in https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/commit/f81d7da2 to match the other 4K presets added in https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/commit/34bdddea The switch to the 10-bit encoder probably makes little difference overall. "strong-intra-smoothing=0:rect...

VLC on my Windows 11 PC can't play back full range properly, even Windows Media Player can't. It's probably related to the AMD drivers and the hardware decoder. MPV seems more reliable. In the above case it's the opposite though, it's the TV range (i.e. post-HandBrake) that's rendered incorrectly. ...

That's just weird, they both look the same even side by side on my system. Screenshot 2023-03-09 at 05.45.31.png In your case, it looks like VLC is somehow decoding it as though it were full range video (which after HandBrake, it isn't anymore) but that doesn't make sense, it's clearly marked as TV ...

For starters, there is no built-in preset called "4K 60fps" specifically. It would help to know the ***exact*** name of the preset you're using.

The "forced" search in handbrake looks for a track that only has 10% or fewer subtitles than other tracks, which catches most such things. But not everything. You can also specify to discard non-forced packets on a track by tack basis (the Forced Only checkbox), which k9393 did. In his ca...

I know how to make it 8K quailty but it takes long time to process, for example a movie length (2 hours) takes 1 day.

Clearly the wrong log, what you provided is the encode for a 50-minute 1080p ("2K") source encoded to 1080p in less than an hour…

That is quite weird. Also, please check your forum private messages

Thanks, I got the files. Both look equally black here (in VLC, mind you), I'll have to take a look at the bitstreams later. On your end, could you try switching hardware-accelerated decoding off (or on if it's disabled) and see if it makes any difference? https://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_HowTo/Hardware...

Well it's definitely the 6.1 audio, but why, I am unsure.

First of all, i'm positively supprised about the output file size on the MAC. Both files are created with the same settings on Handbrake (PC & MAC).

Is there a way to check the video quality to compare them?

Ah, indeed, good catch

Nope, HandBrake works on complete files only, sorry. It just isn't designed to handle that sort of thing.

Just posting here to keep track of this thread. A sample of the source would indeed be useful.

This should have little effect on audio playback issues though. Silistras, can you try an encode on your Mac with everything like above but using the x264 encoder (x264 specifically, not H.264 VideoToolbox) using e.g. the ultrafast preset? The video won't look good, but we only care to test the audi...

MediaInfo says Color space: YUV, Color range: Full

So MediaInfo agrees.

Can you upload your sample source somewhere?

Stream #0:0: Video: h264 (High), yuvj420p(pc, bt709, progressive), 1920x1080 [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 60 fps, 60 tbr, 1k tbn, 120 tbc Your source is marked as full range (yuvj420p instead of yuv420p); since HandBrake always outputs TV range, it converts the input from full to TV range. If your source is...

No, you need to provide your encode log as per the forum rules. That rule is suspended when our crystal ball is operable, but it's undergoing repairs at the moment

Nope, but you can tell HandBrake to downmix the audio to 5.1 via the audio tab and the selection behavior panel.
