Any thoughts? I don't want to have to wait for handbrake.
On the Left is a file I created, on the right is Fab's sample. Only thing I see is the Frame Rate. |
Tymanthius - not sure what went wrong. I converted the "Red Cliff" Trailer from apple.com/trailers. It runs perfectly without any problems. The frame rate is 23.97 - I'm not sure if that matters. You can force a frame rate with the script by "-r 23.97" or "-r 25".
Another thing to try would be to lower the bit rate: "-b 1000k -maxrate 1000k" or even "-b 500k -maxrate 500k" if needed.
Experiment with a small file first. If you want to use a large file, use "-t 60" to have it just do the first 60 seconds for testing purposes.
