1. Troubleshooting

- - -

1.1 Encoding seemed to work fine, but I don't get any sound

-

I guess you are trying to read an AVI file with OS X -/ Quicktime. Try installing the latest DivX codec from -DivX.com, -or use VLC.

- - -

1.2. Not every title of the DVD shows up in HandBrake

-

There are 3 reasons why HandBrake might not show a title: it is a -menu, it has no audio track HandBrake can handle (only AC3 is supported) -or there was a problem when trying to decode data from it (e.g. a -decryption problem). There is no way to workaround this, these titles -don't show up just because you can't rip them. You might check HandBrake -logs in a terminal to know what's happening on your particular DVD.

- - -

1.3. Rip exits after a while with a AC3 error. What does that -mean?

-

It means HandBrake had to deal with corrupted data. It usually -happens when your DVD drive is over-heating after a X-hours long rip. -Though it is handy to directly rip from the DVD, I recommend that you -copy it first to the hard drive whenever possible (for example with -OSEx, using the "DVD Folders" fmt) then you can open the folder with -HandBrake. You have to keep the DVD folder organization (multiple VOB -and IFO files), HandBrake won't open single VOB files.

- - -

1.4. Why does HandBrake get stucked at 100%?

-

When ripping to an mp4 file, HandBrake (actually libmp4v2) optimizes -the file and makes it compliant at the end of the rip. This might take -some time with big files. Also, make sure you have enough space -available on your hard drive before you start (twice the asked size) or -you might end with an unreadable file.

- -

2. Features

- - -

2.1 I want to convert a movie so I can burn it on a VCD or a DVD-R. -Is HandBrake the right application to do this?

-

No. HandBrake only outputs MPEG-4, no MPEG-1 or MPEG-2. If you are -using OS X, have a look at -forty-two, -ffmpegX, -DVDRemaster or -DVD2oneX. This will save you time and quality.

- - -

2.2 I want to to convert a movie so I can edit it in iMovie. Is -HandBrake the right application to do this?

-

No. MPEG-4 isn't a good format for editing, you'd better find a way -to extract it as MJPEG or something, or edit the MPEG-2 directly.

- - -

2.3. I wish HandBrake could support subtitles, rip a 30 seconds -sample, [...]

-

Check the TODO list to -see what's on the roadmap. If you wish to see a feature which isn't -already in it, mail me and, if I think I can do it someday, I'll add -it to the list.

- - -

2.4 Any plan to include 3ivx / DivX 5 encoding?

-

No. 3ivx/DivX aren't free software and have no multi-platform -API.

- -

3. Technical

- - -

3.1 What's the difference between Ffmpeg and XviD?

-

Both are MPEG-4 compliant encoders, so you may choose whichever you -want. However, I would recommend Ffmpeg as it is pretty faster on BeOS -and OS X.

- - -

3.2 What is 2-pass encoding?

-

It performs a slower but better compression - basically it makes -sure you'll get a constant quality so you won't see blocks in fast -motion scenes. Though it's disabled by default, I would strongly -recommend to use it except if you really care about time.

- -

4. Misc

- - -

4.1. How do I donate for HandBrake?

- -

I'm working on HandBrake for fun, therefore I haven't set up a -paypal account or anything (and I won't). Thanks anyway to people who -wanted to give me money ;p
-There are still two ways to make me happy:

- - - -

4.2 Where do this stupid name / icon come from?

-

Don't ask.
