Hi I just did an upgrade from Handbrake HandBrake-1.3.3 to HandBrake-1.5.1 on my Win10 machine and I realized that the output file is about twice as large with the same presets.
Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):
Input H264 = 1284 MB
Output H265 with HB 1.3.3 = 483 MB
Output H265 with HB 1.5.1 = 929 MB
I am using the same preset (AMD VCE, 25 QP, AAC 5.1)
HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):
HandBrake-1.3.3
HandBrake-1.5.1
Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
Win10 x64
HandBrake Activity Log ***required*** (see How-to get an activity log)
Both logs attached. I sanitized file and user names
Code: Select all
