The "advanced tab" is deprecated for a number of reasons. You don't need it, unless you slavishly follow recommendations of YouTube "experts" published for versions of handbrake that haven't been supported for years.

If you don't know enough to apply the film tune, you really don't know enough to be using the advanced tab at all.
You've got a lot of reading and understanding ahead of you, or you should not use the advanced tab.
For someone who doesn't understand how to apply a tune via advanced options, whatever you're putting in the advanced tab probably isn't helpful, doesn't do what you think it does, or is better done other ways (like the encoder preset system).

probably not helpful? did you mean if someone don't know how to add film tune in advance settings never should ask how to use advance settings? i started to use handbrake 2days ago...i encoding video more than a decade...so i guess i have some basic knowledge about video encoding which settings can do what effect on video....anyway i will try to figure it out by myself...no need to act like it's some rocket science so only high level brain can understand.
Sam, you must consider that the majority of people who want to use the advanced tab are doing so only because they saw a youtube guru explain how to set up handbrake 0.9.7 to properly encode a 120FPS recording from their first-person shooter program.
In the case of NLMeans, if you do NOT have the advanced tab turned on, you can enter the parameters directly in the Filters tab.
If you want to make small tweaks the x264 or x265 encoder because you've found a particular option that isn't QUITE what you want, the Video tab has "Extra Options" that can be used to modify things, which is pretty much what people USED to do with the Advanced tab.
So, when we see someone insistent on how to do something on the advanced tab that is already done more simply on the other tabs, in a way less likely to "do bad things", we're going to steer them back towards "doing it simply".
A high schooler could understand it. But I don't think you do, and I don't think it's a good idea to be using arbitrary advanced options when you don't.
