How To Download Handbrake For Linux Mint [PATCHED]
Tristan Ridings
Looking up the official website, I see a more recent version there (1.3). Adding the PPA and installing handbrake-gtk I get 1.2.1 version (because my system in ubuntu-18.04-based, newer versions of Ubuntu should get even newer versions): this has a different interface, one with a button that was absent in the other version.
Checking the handbrake documentation, Nvidia acceleration on Linux still not possible with the GUI, right? Then I am thinking at least I can use the Intel Quick Sync, downloaded from PPA to get latest 1.3.3, but I still don't see the hw acceleration option (I already installed "intel-media-va-driver-non-free" package), anything else needed to be done to get this working under linux? (In MacOS I don't need to do anything and the "VideoToolBox" option exists)
Hi,
it seems that I have similar problem. In my case I can see handbrake gui for about second and then it disapears from the screen.
I have tried with older version, even with hanbrake-gtk2 but same results. I can confirm that in my case handbrake was working 2 days ago and since you mention libdvdcss problem might be there. As i remember, that package was updated recently. I will try to install older version of libdvdcss and I will post results here.
I would like to ask something else. How do u start handbrake from terminal? Command handbrake doesnt exist in my case. I tried that because I wanted to see what is going on and what I can read in terminal (error message or something).
No go for me. Handbrake seg faults and core dumps whenever I start trying to rip a DVD. This is with everything up to date running handbrake-0.9.9-8 and the new libdvdnav that you just pushed. Not sure if I need to downgrade anything to make it work.
On linux you can get a copy of the DVD original with dvdbackup on the command line. I find it works fine so far. It keeps the structure and a media player like VLC will run the folder as-if it is the original DVD, so you can jump to chapters, see specials, etc
Nice to see someone else having issue(s) with handbrake (I'm not alone in these matters). I'd like to know how to list in the terminal the installed version of Handbrake, with something other than apt. Apt gives me a 'warning' and the Software Center takes a long time to search for Handbrake. I am trying to avoid having 2 versions of same app being installed.
Back in 2015, I wrote a guide for Linux users on how to convert *.264 format video streams from a security DVR into something more usable. Since then, the handbrake utility has developed new features and capabilities, so the process can be streamlined. This process was tested in Linux Mint 18.2 and will likely work in any modern Debian or Ubuntu based distribution. Handbrake also has downloads for Mac and Windows.
