HandBrake

I ended up swapping out the i7-6700k with an i5-7500 to see if the problem moved with the processor to my secondary system - and it did. So something with that i7 is screwed up. I have it on its way back to Intel for a replacement. Despite it passing any test/utility I threw at it, Intel support did...

Still trying to track down the issue here... This is causing me serious grief as I've now got projects I can't finish backing up. Seriously, ANY ideas, please throw them at me. No version of the BIOS has changed anything. I took my i7 out, cleaned it off, gave it a fresh dab of thermal compound, hoo...

Mad_sysad, Do you run dual monitor? I do not. Single monitor from my 1080 via displayport. So I did end up installing Fedora on an external drive and booting off that. I built handbrake from source and installed it. I tested with a few different files and the exact same thing is happening. It makes...

I don't get it, as far as I can tell the original post describes an application crash, not a system crash??? Correct , my system is not crashing, just Handbrake (and apparently Adobe Media Encoder as well). Everything else seems fine with the system as far as I can tell - I haven't had any other ap...

I've now checked temps (and more) via the BIOS, MSI Command Center, Corsair Link, Corsair iCUE, HWiNFO64, and Intel XTU and I have yet to see anything. Nothing spiking, nothing too hot, etc. I've run a CPU stress test via Intel XTU, which passed. I ran a memory stress test via Intel XTU which passed...

I have corsair link running. I don't see anything spiking or going into a range of concern. May be worth trying another app to monitor it I guess.

I just tried encoding using x264 10-bit this time, instead of the default x264, and that seems to have actually worked.

Tried a second file, and that one resulted in a crash as before - though it did manage to work on it for about 15 minutes before doing so.

Still at a loss here as to wtf happened.

I'm pretty sure that is indeed the most recent Nvidia driver. 397.93 released on 05/24/2018

Description of problem or question: Beginning sometime in the last month or so, Handbrake crashes a second or two after encode starts. It had been working without issue prior. There have been no changes in hardware/setup. I suspected the latest Windows update may have caused the headache, but even ...
