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.

Matroska v4 element specification. Note: this is Matroska version 4 generated from ebmlmatroska.xml git revision 53f00ba @ 2021-03-07 08:00:13 +0100. How to Cut MKV Files without Quality Loss. MKV (Matroska Multimedia Container) is one of the most popular file extensions among movie fans because it is an open-standard video file format that can hold an unlimited number of video, audio, picture, or subtitle tracks in one file. Cropping parameters are ignored, or cropping is done but with wrong dimensions The problem You merge a video track applying cropping parameters. When you play the file back, the video is either unchanged (no cropping applied at all) or the dimensions are wrong. Reason This is a bug in your player. There's unfortunately no easy way around it.

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.

MKVToolNix contains several command line tools that are designed to be scriptable. You can automate pretty much any type of processing when you combine those tools with a scripting language of your choice. This page lists a couple of examples of how to do this. Could be as simple as opening MKVToolNix and setting the 'crop' and displayheight and displaywidth parameters. Krawk, Mar 15, 2021 #2.

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.
