Re: Segfault on kubuntu

vaapi is an interface for hardware acceleration. You don't need it to test x265, but due to the previous build failure, you need it just to successfully build. You may need to install some additional packages to have all the necessary libraries. Make sure you have libva, libva-drm, and libdrm system...

Re: Segfault on kubuntu

Ugh! It looks like someone broke building without hardware acceleration. Try adding "--enable-qsv" to the configure command (works for me). Be sure to wipe the existing build directory.

Thanks for the additional gdb output. Confirms what I suspected, that m_refFrameList was NULL.

Re: Segfault on kubuntu

It appears some pointer in this expression is invalid: m_curSlice->m_refFrameList[1][0]->m_encData->m_slice This is down in the guts of x265, so probably not much we can do directly except scan their bug list and pull requests for similar problems. These kinds of problems are often due to race condi...

Flatpak uses xdg-desktop-portal in order to present a file manager native to your desktop. Perhaps you are missing a package required for this. I don't know what is required for xfce off-hand but there are several options. Look for packages called xdg-desktop-portal-*

This is not an official build. You'll have to talk to whoever packaged this. They probably neglected to enable libdovi in the build.

Re: Rotating videos

Given that the video plays in the correct orientation on a PC, it probably has rotation metadata in the container indicating the correct orientation. The digital photo frame is simply ignoring this information. HandBrake should also detect this metadata and automatically rotate the video for you. Ha...

The flatpak on flathub is indeed built without libdovi. Building rust libs and applications with flatpak builder currently has issues due to how cargo downloads dependencies. flatpak builder is sandboxed and does not permit this kind of network access. We are working on resolving this, see https://g...

Also, if file size is a concern, 18 RF is overkill. HandBrake's official 4K presets use RF 24 which should result in about half the size.

Re: 4k disc degrading

To put the conversation in another context; any time you handle a physical disc there is a possibility of damaging it. So to minimize damage due to handling, creating a copy and storing the original disc some place cool, dark, and safe is a good way to preserve it.

Re: Converting MP4 to AVC?

Are you certain the player supports "AVC". Could it be "AVI" instead? AVC is a codec while AVI is a container. DVD players generally don't support AVC since DVDs do not use that codec. I suspect the player supports the AVI container with older codecs such as mpeg2 or maybe DivX.

lossless will result in very large files. I.e. your 44 GB BD would likely get re-encoded to something like 400 GB.
