The "well known" Handbrake tutorial?

earthrisers wrote on 2/19/2014, 9:53 PM
Quoting a line from a recent thread:
"When I process the mov file with Handbrake, following the well know tutorial,..."

Can someone point me to that well known tutorial?
I did a search on this forum, but with no luck.
I also did a Google search, but got a bunch of hits that I don't think are really the well known tutorial.
...??

And which approach, Tom, would you be employing?

So what is the "well known" handbreak tutorial? Still wasn't answered.

Tom provides the answer and then, without any indication from the OP that his answer wasn't helpful, others decide to take shots at his effort.

Tom, I feel bad for ya ...

This is the link to the tutorial (and this link is easily found in the thread to which Tom links):

HD Video For the Web - Guide for the Sony Vegas User

Tom's link is far more valuable than simply posting this link because that thread provides a lot of additional information and provides a context for the tutorial. In fact, if you click on the link I provide above (if that is not too difficult for those in the peanut gallery), you will find that it refers back to the thread to which Tom linked.

If you prefer to watch instead of read, this is the link to the video version of the tutorial:

John, if you are referring to my post, what on earth is wrong in asking for which approach he's using?

John, if you are referring to my post, what on earth is wrong in asking for which approach he's using?Because your question is directed at Tom, not the OP. How does that help anyone?

In addition, your response makes no attempt to help the OP. Is he any closer to having his question answered after reading the two posts that followed Tom's excellent response? Answer: no, he is not.

Because your question is directed at Tom, not the OP. How does that help anyone?How? I rate Tom's experience. If he is willing to outline his approach using one of the many methodologies in that thread, I would like to read it and that right there could assist the opening OP - simple.

"In addition, your response makes no attempt to help the OP."In my opinion it does, as I am inviting Tom to outline what he has used from the thread mentioned. Having real World experience of this would go a long way. Simple.

"Is he any closer to having his question answered after reading the two posts that followed Tom's excellent response?"Until Tom replies, and the OP reads and applies what Tom might say, how would I know? Do you, John?

Cheers

Grazie

Whoa!

Didn't mean to start a bun-fight over this. Was just trying to help.

In short, my workflow for content that is destined for the internet is, I render to the DNxHD codec as per the tutorial and then input the resulting file to Handbrake, again using the recommended setting in the tutorial.

Here's Musicvid's slides showing the Handbrake settings. use this a starting point.

HTH,
Tom

I didn't see anything labeled "handbreak Tutorial" in the thread. It was referenced as "handbreak tutorial" that's what I was looking for.

The forum Search, like almost every other, doesn't honor spelling errors.

H-a-n-d-b-r-a-k-e

"Handbrake Tutorial" brings up 204 forum hits.

OK Kids - do I have to turn the car around?

I just want to mention here that I get fantastic results using 35Mbps XDcam mp4 intermediates instead of DNxHD. Otherwise the workflow is about the same.
