Re: HB Changes DolbyVision Profile and Duplicates SMPTE info
It would be a good thing to report that issue to the Dune device maker so they can fix their software. To be honest, I'm just glad to have found a resolution that allows me to save space using Handbrake and still properly see Dolby Vision content. If I understand you correctly, you're saying the du...

Re: Some DV files not correctly flagging DV on playback
FWIW - My Dune media players exhibited the exact same issue - not recognizing Dolby Vision content when there were duplicate SMPTE tags. A simple and quick fix is to run the HB output through MakeMKV - all it's doing is copying the content but it seems to build new header metadata without the duplic...

Re: HB Changes DolbyVision Profile and Duplicates SMPTE info
Right, but you were talking about the "duplicated" HDR10 mastering metadata, not the Dolby Vision data. True, however, I was just noting differences between files that played correctly as Dolby Vision on my players and the files with duplicate SMPTE info that are not recognized as Dolby V...

Re: HB Changes DolbyVision Profile and Duplicates SMPTE info
Thanks for your reply!
Unfortunately, it seems mkvtoolnix does not display nor allow editing of the HDR tag.
I've spent a couple of hours searching and not finding any way of editing the HDR information.

Re: Some DV files not correctly flagging DV on playback
I'm having a similar problem - I wasn't sure if it was related to the Dolby Vision profile conversion in Handbrake (from 7.6 to 8.1) or the duplicate SMPTE data... I found that the profile conversion is expected but upon reading your issue, suspect it might be the duplicate HDR info. Here is what my...

Re: Intel's P and E cores any good for encoding?
On Windows 11, if you do other things (ie open a browser window full screen) while Handbrake is encoding such that the Handbrake window is hidden, Windows thread director will move Handbrake to the E cores. This may leave the P cores doing nothing. Couple of easy fixes are: 1 - to set PC power setti...

Re: x265 low performance and suggested hardware
Software encoding with H265 at Slow, Slower or Very Slow will be SLOW. I use a 5950X (16 cores/32 threads) for Handbrake. I usually do 4K encodes at RF 19 and it uses > 90% CPU. Speed will vary with content, but I typically see < 2 fps on Slower and < 5 fps on Slow. I have never tried Very Slow. Mos...

You mentioned system stability and overclocking - FWIW, Handbrake is my ultimate system stability test. I've overclocked multiple systems and successfully tested stability with extended P95, Aida64, Cinebench R20 & R23 runs only to have Handbrake fail during 4K runs of 24+ hours. Sometimes an ou...

Re: How long does it take you guys to compress this 5 minute video? (with the configuration of the images)
Ran this with parameters in your screenshots - 7.33 fps and output filesize of 75MB.
This was on AMD 5950X and ran at 33-35% CPU utilization.

Re: CPU Encode much larger than GPU Encode
A few days ago, I had run some encodes with thread count settings of 1) no parameter; 2) threads=8; 3) threads=12; and 4) threads=16. The encode times and processor utilization was essentially identical on all 4 runs (+/- 1%). These runs all involved the same 4K source, HB 1.5.1, H265 10-bit encodes...

Re: CPU Encode much larger than GPU Encode
Again, thanks for the explanations!! The RF28 encode completed - execution time was 9:19 (hours:mins) for 14972 MB output. Original RF18 encode took 17:40 with the 87463 MB output. For thread usage, my only concern was if too many might be detrimental - I think I had some H264 discussions regarding ...

Re: CPU Encode much larger than GPU Encode
FWIW - I played with the NVenc RF values increasing quality from 18 to 16, 14, 12, 10 and finally 4. I wondered if there was a setting that would pick up the grain that the CPU was encoding. There was virtually no change in output size - the original RF18 produced 30499 MB and the largest file with ...
