HandBrake

I have been using handbrake cli for a long time as part of my automated system to transcode DVB transmissions. I have tried many many transcoders, handbrake wins hands down!!! My God, I am in awe!

Absolutely! Thank you all for all you've done and all you will do. I converted most of BluRays to work on my iPod Classic using 720x480 anamorphic and when I play them on an HDTV, they look very nice. Not only that, but the sizes are very small and smaller than many other encoders. Kudos to you all.
