Handbrake just not working

Post by Kieutrang »

Hi, I have encoded over 500 dvds (mostly my own) on my Mac using Handbrake.
Now I can't seem to encode any.
The last 5 I have tried won't encode, after starting up for a few seconds
the encoding just ends and I get the "Put that drink down"
notice. These are not new DVDs, some of them 10 years old. So has
something changed with the Mac OS, I'm running 10.9.4
or something with HB. Would really appreciate some feed back if someone
has an idea.

Thank you

From what you've written so far, it seems you're trying to rip disks using handbrake, as well as encode it. But, without the logs, that's just a wild guess.

Ripping has not been supported in over a decade. Any errors detected on the disk will be treated as "end of track". Actual ripping software lets you know about disk flaws.
