HandBrake is a simple yet powerful utility for converting MPEG video (including DVD video) to MPEG-4 video files in mp4 and mkv formats. It is cross-platform free software available for Linux, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and Solaris. The program has existed for quite a long time, the first release was dated May 2, 2007, and it is still relevant and regularly updated, and its new version 1.6.0 has recently been released.
The base package includes ready-made profiles optimized for various devices, and a universal profile for standard or high-quality conversions, which allows you to start working with HandBrake in seconds by choosing a profile.
For those who want more choice, set up many basic and advanced options to improve the encoding result.
Other possibilities:
- Title/chapter and range selection
- Batch scanning and queuing codes
- Chapter Markers
- Subtitles (VobSub, CEA-608 subtitles, SSA, SRT)
- Video encoding of constant or medium bitrate
- VFR and CFR support
- Video filters: deinterlacing, decomb, denoise, detelecine, deblocking, grayscale, cropping and scaling

The main thing in the new version 1.6.0

- New presets and configuration options. In addition to new encoders and filters, HandBrake 1.6.0 offers new and revised presets to simplify the video encoding process:
- 4K AV1 General, QSV (hardware) and MKV (Matroska) presets;
- General presets 4K HEVC;
- Revised and renamed web presets: In this version, web presets have been renamed to Creator, Email and Social.
- In addition, the HandBrake team has added two new configuration options to improve package building and compilation: the -cpu configuration option and the -lto configuration option.
