HandBrake

Interesting. I was just trying to open it with quicktime to check that everything was ok and that's when I get that error. But if I have PLEX play it, it plays fine. So I guess it's just an issue with QuickTime? Not sure.

Thanks for the tip. I downloaded the nightly build and it still is not working. Here is the new log for that conversion:

Description of problem or question I have been converting MKVs with no problems except when they have mono audio. I am converting using the Apple 1080p60 Surround preset. Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable) HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0) 1.0.7 Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu ...

I just saw that in the second file there were 4 audio tracks: (3) 5.1 tracks and (1) 7.1. - It looks like the DTS HD 7.1 got converted to 5.1. And the first file was TrueHD 7.1 which got dropped entirely.

Here is the log for another file that had both 7.1 and a couple of 5.1 tracks. Again, HB took only the 5.1 tracks...

Jezzzusssss guys. you sure know how to make a girl feel special. OK, here we go. I'm using HandBrake to convert an MKV file with 7.1 audio and it only pulls in the video. Does HandBrake support 7.1 audio? OSX 10.11.2 / HB 0.10.2 No errors displayed Please include the scan or encode log: Is the scan ...

I'm using HandBrake to convert an MKV file with 7.1 audio and it only pulls in the video. Does HandBrake support 7.1 audio?

Many thanks.

Ok, thanks.

Hopefully this is a quick answer. I'm trying to convert a Blu ray MKV file to the Apple TV 3 preset (to play on the ATV). The MKV has DTS-HD 7.1 audio. 1. Can I bring this audio over by selection the DTS-HD Passthrough setting? 2. If so, do I select just one audio slot within handbrake or do I need ...

Thanks. I knew it was something simple like that. Hard to keep up with all the changes.

I can't figure out if this is a HandBrake issue or not. I am trying to take an HD MKV file and convert it to watch on my ATV. I used the AppleTV 3 preset in HB. Normally, I would be able to just drag and drop the converted file into iTunes and it would work. Now, I drop it onto iTunes and nothing ha...

Yep, that seems to be it. I ran a test and ripped a chapter with: no subtitle = opened up fine in QT and VLC bitmap sub burned in = opened up fine in QT and VLC bitmap sub not burned in = did not open in QT, opened in VLC (subs worked!), opened in iTunes (subs did NOT work) closed captions sub not b...

Ahhh,
Thank you.

I would like to take an MKV file that I have that has a SRT file in it and simply play it on my Apple TV with the subtitles.

If I load the MKV file and select the AppleTV 3 preset and click on the Subtitle section it does not see the SRT file.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Many thanks.

This may not be a Handbrake issue but a Mac OS issue. I just upgraded to Lion and now when I rip a SD DVD and use the AppleTV 3 preset I cannot play the file with QuickTime Player. I get a message that says "This movie could not be opened. A required codec isn't available." If I use other ...

Does anyone know if there is an online database where you can download CSV files of DVD chapter lists so we can import using handbrake?

So the 1920x832 is the proper output?

In the tutorial the output is the same as the source.

Hello, I am trying to follow this tutorial and everything is working except I can't get the output to be the same as the source in HB 0.9.5 Source is 1920x1080 and the output is 1920x832. If I go into the picture settings and change the anamorphic to "none" and uncheck the "keep aspec...

I knew you guys new what you were doing. Thanks for the clarification!

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I just want to clarify this. This is the way I understand the audio tracks: Tracks 1 and 2 are not representative of right and left (stereo) tracks. Track 1 can have a true surround mix on it and track 2 could have commentary. Question: So why does 0.9.3 select...

Great! This seems to have done it. I had VLC version 0.8.x and I downloaded the latest VLC and shazam! Why you wouldn't use a decent 3rd party ripping utility is beyond me... OK, what is a decent 3rd party ripping utility? I tried Toast but it won't rip copy protected material. Everything I rip is f...

I have had beautiful results with HB versions 0.9.1 and 0.9.2 but I have not had one succesfull use of 0.9.3. I have seen the notice that HB is not for ripping DVDs but I have ripped over 200 with 0.9.2. The problems I'm having: 1. takes very long to read the DVD. Sometimes doesn't read the DVD at a...

If you go to the quicktime site and look at the movie trailers they have HD versions you can download. The look fantastic. I'm wondering if there is a way to do that at home with my blu-rays and and hd dvd ripper. I don't think HB does HD. Does anyone know how apple does it and how I could do it at ...

looks like awkwardtv.org is down for the moment. I'll try reading up as much as I can on this site. The problem is I don't write code so anything that involves terminal and unix has to really be spelled out for me so I can copy and paste. I'll see if I can find it somewhere. Thanks for the help.
