Custom Present Creation doesn't work properly

Post by jvs »

Description of problem or question:

Hello, I had a problem using my standard custom DVD 4:3 present. in version 1.5.1 it worked fine, but in v 1.6.0 it doesn't work, so I made a new one. I saw that the AC3 passthrough option for my two desired DVD languages isn't accepted, the programm still wants a bitrate! So i have go back to 1.5.1. Can someone confirm that problem?




HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):

1.6.0



Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):

Windows 11 Pro 22H2

Are you reading directly from the copy-protected DVD, or through something that is removing the copy protection first? A lot of people add a third-party utility to read from DVDs, then are surprised when the new install does not recognize their forgotten 3-party code.

How is that related to AC3 Passthrough and/or custom presets though? I'm quite confused. Not to mention, going back to 1.5.1 would not automagically reinstall libdvdcss…

jvs, are you sure your source has an AC3 source to begin with? We really need to see a scan log and perhaps a screenshot of the audio panel in HandBrake before we can make further suggestions.

Just a note that the behaviours window will show the bitrate and other controls beside the passthru option and these get applied to the fallback encoder should it be needed.

I used AnyDVD Trial and made a copy to hdd (not as image, as vob files)... using batch scan in Handbrake. This works for all seasons of the series with version 1.5.1...

I used Handbrake 1.5.1 with the custom present and it works fine. Encoding settings like German/English AC3 Passthrough Audio, German/English subs are applicabled when I click my custom present in v. 1.5...

This is how the settings look like in 1.5.1.

Applied it looks like this in 1.5.1.

So the same I did in 1.6.0

It doesn't apply the settings from the correct present :( Do you understand me now?

Maybe it's this? viewtopic.php?p=202256#p202256

Although it's using the AC3 encoder here and not AAC…

Seems so. Thank you anyways. I'll wait for 1.6.1. :D
