In the last time I have noticed, that my handbrake converted videos are too dark. First I thought the problem was in the player Software (Kodi on Shield TV). But now I took a comparison on my PC using VLC playing the converted file side by side with the original (ripped) DVD Image.
And the converted video is too dark here too! (see screenshots, left original, right encoded).
