Ok. What we would like to see would be an encode log from the prior version of Handbrake, and an encode log from the newer version of Handbrake, on the same file with the same settings (or as close as possible), where the file from the new version of Handbrake is having issues being served to your P...

Are we talking about an AppleTV, an AppleTV 2, an AppleTV 3, or and AppleTV 3v2, or an AppleTV 4?

It's possible that if your source is an HDTV capture that the source is full of errors that Handbrake doesn't like. This is the way TS files are.

Look for something that fixes TS files at VideoHelp, or where ever, and use that first and then use Handbrake on the fixed file.

Thank you KDCNZ for finding this problem.

The acronyms .ssa and .ass have nothing to do with Handbrake. You should take that problem up with the groups that made those formats.

We call it transcoding.

Hello, I apologize. I understood that an activity log was required if something was broken. I didn't understand that it was required any post asking a question . I copied my activity log to a pastebin as requested. Here is the link: http://pastebin.com/rW2AbZu0 "Any post asking a question"...

If you refuse to post your encoding logs, we really can't help you with your concerns. You need to post a log from 0.10.5 and post a log from the nightly, working on the same file with the same settings. Remember that the MP4 container is more restrictive of what can be put in it, where as the MKV c...

Personally, I would set the frame rate to be Same as source and make a test file with Constant Framerate and another test file with Variable Framerate. If they both work, you might be able to get better results with Variable Framerate.

Or - The canvas size of a bluray is 1920 by 1080 (unless it's 4K or UHD) so anything that is not 1.78:1 has black bars to fill the areas that don't have an image. If you want the black bars removed, then leave the automatic cropping on, if you don't want them removed, then disable the cropping or se...

Please describe what you would like to see added to HandBrake: I would like to see the presets collapsed rather than open. Why would you like to see this added: There are a lot of presets! And of course user presets are at the bottom of the very long list. So this would make it easier to select my ...

Knock yourself out and contribute to the project by writing the documentation that you keep harping about.

For future reference, if you need to generate text subs, try Subtitle Edit.

You have to post an encoding log in order for us to know what is going on.

My Vizio's default setting was for the showroom, and not for home use. Perhaps that was the problem with yours?

However, I'm glad you got it sorted.

My eyes are too old to read all bold text… ——— I recently upgraded from SnowLeopard to ElCapitan MacOS 10.11 and the newest version of Handbrake. Now Handbrake does not work anymore for my most frequent task, converting .ts files from my DVR to mpg4. It starts to scan the folder or file(s), then han...

I’ve never had such a problem, but it’s been a bit since I actually updated the version that I’m using. Sounds like your AnyDVD software may need an update? Big name movies like this often will need a newer/the newest version (at the time of release). I was actually referring to the version of Hand...

If you don’t need any of the features that HB provides, ie transcoding, why not just use mkvtoolnix to convert them from MP4 to MKV?

You can also use a subtitle editing tool that will let you scan the subtitle streams, and you can narrow it down from there. I prefer to use SubtitleEdit , but to use it on your Mac you’d have to compile it from source. I do not know of anything that is a native OS X tool that is worth a darn. But I...

Or use mkvtoolnix.

That’s just the scan log. An encode log would be much more useful.

Why is a log needed to answer how to questions? What's a forum for? I don't need a diagnosis since I doubt I have an error. What I'm saying here is that the wiki on these subtitles could be more definitive. I don't know if it's working as expected even after reading the doc so I'm asking. Believe m...
