Exact Dimensions

Post by Another Mike »

Hello,

Could I ask if HandBrake can output files with precise dimensions.
I have a batch of files which are essentially 4:3 however most are slightly narrower or wider than a perfect 4:3.
I can't seem to set to output at say exactly 1440x1080, whatever the source file was.

Many thanks.

Mike.

If your source files are 1440x1080, just set all cropping to 0.

Thanks for the reply.
All my files to start with are not 1440x1080.
They are a mixture dimensions near to that.
I need them to come out all 1440x1080 no matter how they went in.
Many thanks.

If you're using the GUI, you can't get handbrake to INCREASE the size to 1440x1080 if the input is smaller. You'd need to use the command line interface to get everything to scale to that exact size.

The activity log would answer a lot of questions we're not going to repeat over and over.
