OMG, I don't know how I missed that- thank you!!

The problem is that in HB, I choose the Audio track 2 English (DTS-MA, 5.1 ch) and in the resulting video I'm getting this: Audio ID : 2 Format : AAC LC Format/Info : Advanced Audio Codec Low Complexity Codec ID : A_AAC-2 Duration : 7 min 23 s Channel(s) : 2 channels Channel layout : L R Sampling ra...

This is the MediaInfo for Disk4 which was created from HB, I only encoded chapter 2 to keep it quick.

Here you go. I performed an encode from DBoB isk 4, Title 1 using 00000.MPLS (01:12:50). 00009.MPLS is also the same size: HandBrake 1.8.1 (2024062200) OS: Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.22631.0 CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz Ram: 16315 MB, GPU Information: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 - 32.0.1...

For some reason I cannot edit my posts and a URL for the screenshot within the IMG tags does not work so here's the screenshot:

Hmmm. Seems the playlists are not playing very well. I was able to open the playlists however I encoded the video with DTS-MA AC3, DTS AAC, DTS AC3 and DTS AAC Stereo however the resulting file looks like this: General Unique ID : 251129120273641508841220265437874386073 (0xBCEDB59257BDBE85D006CD91E2...

Can I import the MPLS files into HB?

I just posted a help request and found a typo which I would like to fix, however I cannot find a way to edit my post??

Description of problem or question: I copied my Band Of Brothers BluRay disks to my HDD so that converting to MKV is a lot quicker. However when I start HB, choose the File Open Video Files, navigate to E:\Media\Video\DVD-BluRay Rips\Band Of Brothers\Disk1\FullDisc\BAND OF BROTHERS DISC 1\BDMV\STRE...

I don't think it is, although I am by far an expert on the subject. MakeMKV has no issues reading the disks and decoding them to MKV, which is what I wanted to do with HB. I still think HB has a problem. MakeMKV shows the following as part of the logs: Title #12/1 has length of 10 seconds which is l...

MakeMKV can make ISO images of DVDs, from what I can see from the app. So like I said, I could backup the DVD to ISO then HB it to what I like. I'm not sure why I would, as you suggested, use MakeMKV to rip the DVD to an MKV file then use HB after that. If MakeMKV can rip the DVD then that's what I ...

As pointed out, using a separate program like MakeMKV to read the disks, and handbrake to encode the result, is the preferred method. It also works with things (like Blurays) that the old method does not recognize. If I'm not mistaken, MakeMKV actually does a very similar job to HB, where it rips t...

Description of problem or question: I cannot RIP my "I dream of Jeannie" DVDs using HB. I tried 3 of the DVDs from the same set and they all do the same thing- when HB starts, it scans and finds all the titles on the disk however it shows the error "No valid source or titles found&qu...

Thank you. I have a question about Handbrake's folder contents once installed so I hope you could help me here. On pages such as this one: https://www.winxdvd.com/resource/how-to-rip-dvd-with-handbrake.htm, it shows the HB folder and files, and there are quite a few DLLs. But when I look at my copy,...

Description of problem or question: I updated HB on my notebook and tried to encode my "I Dream Of Jeannie" DVDs to MKV so that I could watch them on my nVidia Shield, but when I choose the source, being the in-built BDROM, it kept coming up with "No valid source or titles found"...

I want to create a backup of my daughter's movie Tangled before she can get her hands on the original disk. I used DVDFab HD to rip it to the HDD and now I want to convert it to MKV so that she can watch it on the Xtreamer media player. My problem is that when I try to convert it to MKV, HB cannot f...

Sorry- forgot that the CODE screen has a vertical scrollbar! Oops: From memory, you have to set the FPS to a value not "same as source" and it will be CFR. If you select "same as source" then it comes out VFR. Let me know if this fixes it for you. If this is the situation you are...

So, there is a bug with 0.9.5, where if someone were to specify 23.976 as the Frame Rate, the encode is still Variable Frame Rate, not CVR. I have even tried the latest NIghtly Build, 3980, and it still has this bug. From MediaInfo v0.7.44 Video ID : 1 Format : AVC Format/Info : Advanced Video Code...

Thanks guys, I appreciate the info.

I think I'll choose "Anamorphic = None" as this produces the largest resolution output.

Can someone explain to me how the Picture tab works? I would like to encode my PAL DVDs (720x576 w- aspect ratio = 16:9) to MKV but the Width cannot be changed in the Picture tab. I get the following options: Anamorphic = None, W=720 max, H=304, modulus=16. I can increase the H value to 576 but the ...

@Andy, yes VFR causes seek issues in not only the Xtreamer but in most hardware media players. Like I said, most hardware media players DO NOT SUPPORT Variable Frame Rate media content. This is a fact and not a bug. As for commercial DVDs & BD media, the ones I have seen, and I have seen a lot, ...

Sorry mate for mis-leading you there on the ripping function. I was quoting the HB Wiki page : Disk won't rip? Try these steps: First off, you should know that HandBrake is not a DVD ripper. There are many of those out there. For Mac, the best option is Fairmount paired with DVD2OneX. For Windows, i...

HB does not rip CSS-protected DVDs. I think that's a shame as I have to use a 3rd party tool to do the rip then HB to encode to MKV.
