Re: How to burn english subtitles of a foreign film?

I've noticed the recent updates to Handbrake nightlies that support BD subtitles, and got excited that I can now drop Aegisub/mkvmerge as a solution to forced-subtitles. I've successfully ripped one example (Game of Thrones, Season 1 - Episode 10... I'd manually subbed all previous ones!) using the ...

Re: Ripping TV episodes.

@Happy, Plenty of scripts referenced within the forums; My own solution is to have a script run every so often via cron to scan the "rip" directory and pass this into HandbrakeCLI with the settings that you chose. I just use MakeMKV to copy my library of disks into the rip directory (from ...

Re: Apocalypto Blu Ray rip subtitle problem...

Eddie52: I've done exactly this with Apocalypto (and many others). My current favourite method is to rip DVD/Blueray using "whatever" (in my cases a registered version of MakeMKV), download a SRT from t'internet. Load up Aegisub and open the SRT, open the MKV, use audio from video, then te...

Encoding performance - local vs network

I have three Mac Minis, two on a local gigabit network, another on a remote gigabit network, with a ethernet-over-mains ~500Mb link (more or less!, depending on noise). There's a gigabit network drive sat on the main network (where the other two macs are). All three Macs are able to sniff the networ...

Re: Some DVD-Rips don't encode completely (missing chapters?

1) I'll pick up the latest nightly, although the one used is within a week or two of being up to date. I have read the change-logs and not spotted anything obvious but it's certainly worth trying the latest. 2) I have tried that earlier (with Sixth Sense, I think), with MKVMerge/Mkvtoolnix, without ...

Some DVD-Rips don't encode completely (missing chapters?)

I use MakeMKV to rip my DVD/Blu-Rays to HD, then pass each MKV into the HandBrakeCLI to convert to 264. Some of the films (e.g. Sixth Sense and Hot Fuzz) don't complete the 264 conversion, or rather, Handbrake says it's finished but the resulting m4v is incomplete. I've tried the GUI as well as the ...

Re: How to burn english subtitles of a foreign film?

Ah, that kinda makes sense... now... to automate this... <heads back to the drawing board>

Thanks for the help, though.

How to burn english subtitles of a foreign film?

Newcomer to HandBrake, but loving the work so far, Mac OSX: My grand plan is to rip my Bluray/DVD collection to a harddrive, using MakeMKV to generate intermediate MKVs, then handbrake to a primary target of a home HTPC running Plex at 720p, and a secondary (maybe smaller filesize) target of iOS dev...
