Handbrake never selects the HD/DTS passthrough.
#COMPRESS VIDEO IN HANDBRAKE MOVIE#
I always check the settings when I open handbrake (even though I have a custom pre-set) for the next session and I ALWAYS go in and select the audio for each movie I'm encoding. Do the same for DVD and another one for 4k and probably another one for 4K HDR (when handbrake supports HDR 10 BIT). When you're happy with your blu ray settings, be sure to save it as YOUR preset. Dang it! I did notice those other choices after seeing why I wasn't getting what I thought off a blu ray, but it turned out that some of those good movies being sold cheap dumb down the audio and video bitrates. Now that I think of it, I wonder if I missed a better audio choice. I'm sure I had other options, but with 5.1 speakers and receiver, I know if I hit TrueHD 5.1 or 7.1 or anything dts, Plex would do the heavy lifting and transcode the audio using flac if it couldn't do direct stream. You can go into the Audio default options and tell it to always show you (check all the different audio formats) and it'll show you all of them next time you hit the audio dropdown selection box. By default, I 'm not sure 7.1 ATMOS will show as an option in the Audio drop down when you're getting ready to set the audio options because it's probably tied to the Handbrake SuperHD Preset. There's a setting in Handbrake that shows you which audio source to show you in the dropdown. Check to make sure you're getting what you want to be processed by whatever audio hardware you're using.
Iron out the settings and season to taste. I had worked on the settings and figured out what I wanted before I started ripping the ~400 videos going back 15 years. I should also mention I use MakeMKV to copy to local hard drive. Hope that helps as reading what others had posted helped me figure out what settings worked for my desired output. The advantage here is that some video's do 100-160 FPS while some, for reasons I don't understand, will do 6-10 FPS. In other words, say a single encode was 100 FPS, adding another encode would cause it to drop to 50 FPS each. This will encode 2 video's at the same time (probably limited by my dell xps 9570), splitting FPS it would normally do for just one video. I also changed the Tools -> Preferences -> Advance -> Process isolation -> Max # of encodes to 3 If you use these settings verbatim for DVD's, it will increase the size of the file and add no benefit to the video/audio.Ĥk requires more settings and HDR 10 bit doesn't seem to be supported at the moment by handbrake. There are ways to handle the grain to get the file size down without loosing quality.ĭVD's (preset HQ 480p30 and then the rest of the settings used for BD) and 4k use different settings.
Movies shot on film with grain creates large files. That's it - Add to Queue and Start Encoding Plex will transcode if the client can't do direct play for audio. I remove the second suggested audio source that handbrake selects. Video Encoder: H.264 (Intel QSV) (use qsv if you have a compatible Intel CPU)įramerate: Same as source / Constant Framerate / Constant Quality 20 QPĪudio: Pick TrueHD or anything that's HD / Codec TrueHD Passthrough (this just passes audio without processing). Select Super HQ 1080p30 surround from the preset as a starting point - Then. Like others already stated here, pass the audio through in the Audio tab and remove the other one handbrake usually selects for you. I'm HUGE on sound and didn't want to lose any quality. This is after reading what others had done and posted their settings. I'd be happy to share my handbrake settings if you care to give it a shot.
