Re: Best (free) program to combine mp4 files?

Maybe, if the files are all of the same data types, use MakeMKV, and then something like Subler to convert the final file to mp4.

Re: Board revision

Testing with the grey theme, it works ok. I just would rather have the scroll bar than the extending text box.

Re: Considering upgrading memory

Re: Considering upgrading memory

The difference is way too small to be statistically significant, unless you maybe ran each encode 100 times and average the resulting encoding speeds. I was thinking about that too. I wasn't interested in doing that many encodes though! I wanted to get that memory in. I guess I should have done it ...

When using the full editor, when it decides to extend the text entry box, it likes to re-render (flash) the whole page. Can this behavior be disabled?

Re: Advanced Settings Tab in WinGUI still has some problems

Isn't it time to nuke the advanced tab anyway... No. SC I respectfully disagree. The advanced tabs provides some widgets to set some x264 options as a convenience for the user, which is nice, but: - people who aren't advanced users should stick with libx264's presets as much as possible - advanced ...

Going from the special edition theme to the regular version makes it much less annoying, as it just flashes once.

There seems to have been a update for the board in the last month. When I load a page it flashes something like a text only browser, then a "default" theme, and then goes back to the Handbrake theme. This is very annoying. Is anyone else seeing this? And someone at phpBB went a bit crazy w...

Re: Handbrake crashing and/or stuck on scanning

If you download the nightly release from the Handbrake site, then your computer was not infected by a virus from Handbrake. You are suffering from a false positive. If you downloaded it from somewhere else, then who knows? If you can't override your security software you should consider getting diff...

Hello.

Mixing down multiple audio streams is beyond the scope of Handbrake, and will have to be done before hand in Vegas.

Re: Considering upgrading memory

Bring up task manager and watch the physical memory under performance as you encode a Bluray file. If you don't see it going over 50% use, "more RAM" isn't going to be a big help. As Rollin mentions, though, faster RAM may help, and if it's a bigger space... That's a bonus for running oth...

MakeMKV does not copy DVDs, but creates the MKV files from what it finds on the disc. MakeMKV only copies Blurays, or makes the files.

Hello, When I bought the new system, I went a bit cheap on the memory. It's DDR3 1600 11-11-11-28. My Windows Experience for memory is 5.9, which makes me :? since everything else is 7+.
