![]() ![]() When you’re ready to start encoding, click Start If your subtitles are in a different file you can choose Import SRT or Import SSA to import them into the destination file (recommended).To keep any of the source subtitle tracks, click Add > Embedded Subtitle List and choose the desired source tracks, or click Add All to keep them all.For many presets, Handbrake will only add subtitles if the audio tracks are in a foreign language.If you play the video and the audio doesn’t work, try reencoding it with a different codec.If your device doesn’t support the source codec or if you want to reencode the audio, the AAC (default) codec is fine for most purposes.If the source audio (to the left of the arrow) doesn’t have more channels than you need, and the destination audio (to the right of the arrow) doesn’t say Passthrough, remove the default audio track(s), click Add to add a new track, and for Encoder choose the appropriate Passthru option For some reason, Handbrake will often do an unnecessary audio reencode by default.Size: Using x264 and RF: 20 will average about 925 MB per hour of video (this can vary greatly this is only an average).Set to baseline for older devices with weaker CPUs, but this will greatly increase the size of the video.Quality RF: (default is normally fine) - a higher number gives lower quality (on a logarithmic scale).x265 will give better video quality and smaller file sizes, but isn’t supported by many devices yet only use it if you know your device supports it.Some older devices like Sony DVD players only support MPEG-4.Encoder: x264 (default) - this is the best default choice for most devices.If your video is interlaced, make sure you select Deinterlace > Decomb (this may be set by default for some presets).Auto Crop (enabled by default): the video will be automatically cropped to remove black bars on any side.Choose one of the 480p presets for playback on an older SD televisionĬhange settings as needed (most of the defaults are fine except as noted in bold).Choose one of the Very Fast presets for a smaller file size and slightly reduced quality.The Fast 1080p30 preset is more or less the default preset.VLC shows nothing when either is selected.Īny recommendations or thoughts would be welcome.Under Presets List on the right select one of the presets under General Today, it appeared I successfully created a compressed MKV H265 file, for which VLC properly offers two subtitle tracks - but both subtitle tracks appear empty. I accidentally deleted that file, but I can’t fathom what, if anything, I did differently with it. ![]() Once, somehow, I did manage to create a compressed MKV file that included ever audio and subtitle track, which VLC had no difficulty playing. I’m working with several of the past manufacturer’s blu-rays and DVDs, but I can’t encode subtitles from an MKV derived from any manufacturer’s disks. Encoding a single set of burned-in subtitles worked fine.Īt present, I’m using the exact same process, as I can remember, on a more recent MacBook Pro (Intel) but that has far less computing power than the iMac. I’ve tried burn-in for one subtitle track for M4V, but this also fails.Ģ.5 years ago I compressed and converted several MKV files to MP4 H264 from a single Blu-Ray manufacturer using my 2014, top-of-the-line iMac I purchased for video editing. I‘d prefer to encode in MKV because many of my disks have multiple audio and/or subtitle tracks, but at this point I’d be happy with M4V if the subtitles would encode. I’ve done as PoeJam has - but his settings fail me. Encloding subtitles from blu-rays and DVDs seems to fail no matter how I select to encode subtitles and no matter the file format, M4V, compressed MKV, H264, H265. This thread doesn’t seem active anymore - but - just in case - I’m having the same difficulty.
