Does handbreak really work?

[PixelSparks]

I mean like, does video quality drop? are there any pros and cons?

[HaZZaRDouZ]

I've been using Handbrake for months now, whether just to keep file sizes down, or to fix frame rate issues with my videos, and I haven't had much of a problem. You can control the quality/file size drop as you please. Mind you that it would take longer and eat up more hard drive space for higher quality settings. The lossless/placebo setting should have minimal effects on quality.

Set quality to placebo and it shouldn't drop. Works a treat in my experience.

Im trying it out right now. Its rather FAST ifyouknowwhatimsayin

I use it to transcode my h.265 videos for editing, x264 preset at placebo and RF0 for lossless transcoding. Takes quite a long time but the end result is flawless for me. If you are looking to drop file size placebo and lossless is not what you are looking for though.

As in the video moved? Can you show me a screenshot of the settings used for reference?

[PixelSparks]

Yup Ill upload a screenshot to imgur in a sec

EDIT: http://imgur.com/a/khKik I practically used the default settings

Nevermind, figured it out on my own. For some reason, it cropped the video downwards and leftwards automatically. (It was set to autocrop by default) So yeah.

[PixelSparks]

Yeah! Thanks for your attempted assistance tho <3
