The RF-Slider is fife points further down.
Is there a certain reason?

HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):




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

I’m not sure what you are saying, different presets use different settings to increase/decrease quality. You can adjust the quality if needed.

What is your issue with this?

Thanks for your answer.
There is no issue. Just wanted to know why does for Matroska no adequate preset exist. I know it can be easily adjusted. :wink:

Ahhh, so you want an AV1 preset?

My guess is that AV1 is still fairly new/experimental no one has created a preset yet.
