Handbrake...first few seconds..help requested

Guess I'm the only one with a broken handbrake.

The original source video plays well but after I encode in handbrake it takes the first 3 seconds and makes it look like slow motion then it plays fine. I've redited the clip and encoded differently three times or more in handbrake. I also encoded with Any Video Converter. It plays fine on computer but not working on the Roku. Retrieves half way and then goes back to the detailsscreen.

If you know a fix for what it's doing, let me know.

Thank you.

I use handbrake and it works well. What version are you using? Are you on mac or pc?

Hi

0.9.5 on windows 7.

Was working great when I first tried it. But last two videos not doing right. One of them I got fixed by doing a 2nd encode. One still has lag first three seconds. Going to try another video and see what happens with it.

what kind of videos are they? also what codec are you using?

The first ones did okay as mentioned. They are 720x480 avi's that were shot in SD.

Pm me. I can send you the templates i use. Let me know if they work out.

I tried handbrake again today. it sued to work. Not sure what the problem is. The edited file looks just fine. Encode it and it is choppy first 3 seconds or it's a like a slo-mo effect.

I tried several different videos and it does the same now for all. I tried the Regular High Profile, Regular Normal. On the last encode the Regular Normal looked better than the others but the audio looks to be a tad out of sync plus the choppy effect at the start.

Any suggestions?

Any other avi to mp4 converters good for Roku?

Thank you.

I've had more problems when changing the framerate of a video during reencoding. You can try using a different codec revision to see if that fixes it.

I've tried the universal setting, normal and high profile. Tried it with many different settings. What settings are you using?

I think I will to a reinstall and see if maybe something is conflicting with it. If I find the fix, I'll post it for others.

After changing from version 9.5 to 9.6 Handbrake is now working properly again to encode avi to mp4.
