One of the easier converters, I just wish I could do batch jobs WITH subtitles settings..... I have to set the sub settings manually for each file or otherwise, it uses the defaults on them all

Did not convert well. Audio and video were choppy. It was Charlie Brown. Can't imagine trying something with actual graphics.

Still producing great results, if you know how to use it correctly. Fairly easy to tweak settings between conversion time and quality. Always happy to use decent free software instead of paying for snake oil.

Anything that uses Handbrake as a back end is doomed to end up in the digital garbage. There are several other more efficient tools available that do as good or a better job. This program is nothing special. The media file I used took 5 hours to process, and absolutely thrashed my high end system whilt it ran, with my CPU hitting over 80c and fans maxing out.
In contrast, DVDFab (which is nothing more than spyware), took 20 minutes to process the same file. Made sure to use profiles that produced the same output so as to have a fair comparison.
Also, its great that we can review software here, but seriously, what good is a review system if people can just leave 10/10 scores to bump up their software and not leave a review? The scores become meaningless.
