For anybody looking to convert DVD and Blu-ray discs to video files that can be played on a variety of devices, then Handbrake is the conversion and encoding application to turn to.
As an open source project with a large community contributing to its development, Handbrake is grown into one of the most powerful DVD and Blu-ray video conversion utilities available. Although Handbrake has been most often used for optical discs in the past, it's fully capable of processing plain old video files like MKV, AVI, MOV, QT, etc.
It features a well thought-out graphical user interface that's powered by a variety of free video encoder and decoders under the hood.
Getting started with the application, you're able to open up a video disc or a video file and presented with a multitude of options for the final output. All of the options are arranged into tabs describing what modifications should take place.
Handbrake comes with a number of presets which have their default values already set. They range from 4K resolution to simple 1080p HD and some lower resolutions suitable for sharing on the web.
Even when applying a preset, you can modify the resolution, dimensions and apply cropping with relative ease in the 'Dimensions' tabs. Further on under filters, different modifications can be applied from denoise, sharpen, deinterlace with a few presents available. These can all be tweaked to preference.
Though the presets are certainly a way to save time, Handbrake is very capable of encoding other formats like MP4, x.264/x.264 and many others. It can also automatically select the format based on the device you wish to use the video files on such as a smart phone, portable gaming device or anything else.
All in all, Handbrake is an excellent choice for video conversion with a huge list of supported formats and codecs along with some useful video enhancement tools and settings included.
