ALAC

PSS: If it is decided to not implement this because it might be incompatible with some Apple products then why not incorporate the Apple Lossless Encoder at the very least? As you note, it's proprietary. So how, exactly, would we use it? I'll play the grave digger. Apple Lossless has been open sour...

Re: People's thoughts on cropping irregular-shaped black bar

I had a fair share of videos like this, so it's not uncommon. I always crop so that as much information as possible remains.

Re: Problem converting rip King of Queens (video not recogni

I've ran into the same problem, I'm suspecting it's due to the lack of support for decoding interlaced VC-1 in ffmpeg.

Re: How to choose left or right audio channel for vcd

Not at the moment. I doubt it will be a very high priority for inclusion, as only VCD's adopted this practice. As a workaround you could demux your finished encodes, split the audio using an audio editor such as Audacity, then remux the edited audio back into the video. At least over here it's also...

Re: Suggestion: Encode only audio

The devs have stated multiple times that HandBrake is a video transcoder, not a audio extractor & transcoder. So I highly doubt this is gonna happen. Also the HandBrake isn't limited to 160 kbps AAC by choice, it's alimitation of the FAAC Encoder.

Re: VLC.app Directory Path

Guess what, the devs found that info too. The problem is that when you have multiple copies of VLC on your system it seems like one copy is randomly selected wich is not desired, that's why the devs chose to use a hardcoded path. Since this is an open source project feel free to patch it yourself, b...

Re: Reduciong Reframe from 13 to 5 ...?

1. Reencoding is never without quality loss
2. You can set the amount of reference frame in the advanced tab, not in the picture settings tab.

Re: Combining Universal encode with iPod 5G encode

It must be the same number on both files and not the same as any content in your library already has.

You have to do those steps before adding the files into iTunes, when you're done drag them at the same time into iTunes.

Re: Combining Universal encode with iPod 5G encode

Download Tagger or use Subler, the steps are similar.

Open up the first file, set the media kind and a cnID, if its the higher res version also check the HD flag. Repeat with the second file.

Re: More descriptive default audio track names

Well Apple seems thinks that it's smart to have the language in the track name, in my copy of Wall-E the audo tracks are named like this: Stereo Audio (eng) Surround Audio (eng) Stereo Audio (deu) Surround Audio (deu) In iTunes this looks like: English(Stereo Audio (eng)) Which I personally don't li...

One thing I noticed, perhaps I should add this to the issues list, but this could be a feature, not a bug: Some tags allow an empty value, but some will not save if no value is filled in. For example, Track # and Disk # tags: if no value is entered, then upon Saving, the tags will disappear. Maybe ...

Re: Adding an audio track in a QT file as alternate language

Anything encoded with HandBrake should be MP4 and not MOV, so mp4tracks should be fine.

mp4tracks is a command line utility. If you don't know how to do that I'd ask Rodney kindly if he'd add it to Subler.

Re: AppleTV: Always defaults to "Commentary" audio track?

There had to be a hack work around until Apple released HD movies. And now it works as expected. I'd bet it would have worked before just as well, we just didn't know how to do it right ;) But your main point is true, once Apple starts publishing multi lang videos it will be much easier to get right.

What you entered is the short description (which should be shown in FrontRow if there is no long description) but the "!" takes you to the long description. You can set the long description with MetaX, Subler or Tagger

Re: Advanced Bluray/HDDVD Workflow & Features Discussion

You can't passthrough DTS at all with HandBrake.

And it only makes sense for mkv anyways, DTS in mp4 is neither specified nor supported by any device/software.
