Post by G1user »

Here's the settings for HandBrake for use with the HTC G1 Android Mobile.
These settings will result with a low file size & good quality. :D
These settings use the max width of the G1 screen while maintaining the ratio of your source.

Nothing odd about the way Handbrake's strict anamorphic works, you've simply failed to read the documentation.

http://trac.handbrake.fr/wiki/AnamorphicGuide

If you want Handbrake to stop switching the file suffix to m4v, then simply switch off chapter markers.
