You can save these with a preset.įor example, you can tell it to grab all English audio tracks and convert them to aac.

Handbrake lets you define rules for audio and subtitles based on language. I guess all the good ones were gone already.(and they seem to be French, so you know zeez crayzeee french.) No idea where they got the name from though. In MakeMKV I fairly recently discovered how to only rip English Audio and English subs though, which helps. I use MakeMKV to rip DVD, bluray and 4K and Handbrake to shrink (just blurays though, I leave DVD as they're low enough quality already and 4K cause I didn't buy 4K to lower their quality, and I'm not sure if you can anyway).ĭoing a batch of episodes generally works fine for me, but I havben't found a way to set subttiles and audio for all the titles in one go, so while you can have it set say the crf for all the titles to sat 21, you have to chucg though and set the audio for each one one at a time. I forget you can rip DVDs with Handbrake. I'll continue to use both, until I learn more. videoproc is easier for beginners, but handbrake looks to have a little bit more detail, so far, i'm still learning.

Both have all the options, but videoproc defaults easier to use, handbrake more manual, but i'm still learning, so we'll see.Īlso, videoproc doesn't have a peak frame rate option, it defaulted to same as source, so I changed handbrake to same as source, and it made a huge difference in time to process, so the peak option takes a lot more time. Settings on both: keep 1080p, 23.976fps, audio bit rate 128kbps (sample rates slightly different 44.1kHz vs 48kHz handbrake, so I missed that one), encode h.264 level 4.2, image quality constant CRF 22, 2 pass. Videoproc produced a 2.5gb mp4 w/ 3930kbps Handbrake produced a 3.6gb mp4 w/ 5563kbps noob here learning more about video compression.īoth handbrake and videoproc produced similar results in similar timeframes, using similar settings (quality controls are different):
