Blu-ray support?

Hi,

since the DVD format is becoming dated, how is the planning re supporting the blu-ray format?
A quick forum search came up empty.
I'd love to rip and compress the true HD :)

Cheers

The closest you can get is with an AppleTV: Encode the single Episodes with Handbrake Get MetaX and set all the necessary info like season, episode and stuff Import to Itunes Watch on AppleTV Only setbacks: couple of bucks for AppleTV, some time for making it nice with MetaX The pros: couch potato a...

On the Mac you can use VisualHub (not free) or iSquint (free). On the commercial side there is also ffmpegX, which I liked better than VisualHub. I had tried both and gotten the feeling that VisualHub tried to dictate my usage and the true gears (like all the fiddly settings of Handbrake) were well...

Re: Optimizing for Mac Pro Quad Core

Are you using the last public build or did you compile a current one from SVN? If it's the former, you should consider following the instructions on the Wiki on how to build your own Handbrake from the SVN. A quick glance (glance! not even search) over at the Support forum brings you this: http://ha...

Sometimes putting the machine to sleep and then waking it back up helps it get over the hanging!

I don't know why it seemed to always happen when using handbrake. Actually it also happened when viewing Quicktime videos too. KernelPanics seem mostly Hardware related.

Re: Implications of cropping

Sorry if I'm not making myself clear, I'm in the midst of grasping the whole concept, so my terminology might not be consistent. here is what the GUI says: Source = 720 x 576 (I understand that, regular PAL) Output = 720 x 544 (720 cropped 2/2=720 ???

Implications of cropping

It's my priority to get the best available quality from the DVD into my appleTV. I've found that on my setup I cannpt tell the difference on bandwidth beyond 2500 so I stick with that (2100 for TV). So far, so good. BUT, what are the implications of cropping? Example: Let's say I rip movie X. It's a...

Gorgeous new GUI!

Dear Devs,

my Kudos! The new GUI from the SVN is very elegant and so 2007 :)
I don't regret installing the XCode tools to compile nightly builds!
Who knows, maybe I'll even start learning objective c some day...

Keep up the good work!

If the series is 4:3 then turn off anamorphic, but make sure you copy the x264 options because if you're using the last binary release it will lose them when you change any settings from the preset. One question regarding this, and I'd be thankful if you cold help me on this: If I want to use 2 pas...

OK, so 4:3 no anamorphic, no matter what, right?

I switched to the latest SVN, wanted the control over the x264 options so bad! (And the addl language inactive feature!)

TV Shows and anamorphic?

Hi,

I live in PAL land.

I'm about to rip SATC using appleTV preset. And that preset defaults to Anamorphic On. From the preview window it looks like anamorphic is ok to use. But really, are those TV shows on DVD anamorphic??? Or should I switch to 'Keep ascpect ratio'?

TIA,
