The previous version addressed several issues including a warning\/error related to repeat headers with the x265 encoder, a bug where the NVEnc encoder would not recognize the level setting, corrupted DVD subtitles rendering, and visual artifacts when employing the eedi2 filter.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>Furthermore, HandBrake 1.8.1 resolved a freezing issue in the queue on macOS, which could occur if the encoding process crashed during job configuration. Windows users saw fixes for problems like unintended hardware decoding during previews, overly sensitive auto-naming functionality, and the disabling of hardware decoding for new installations.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>Check out the release notes on the <em><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/HandBrake\/HandBrake\/releases\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">project\u2019s GitHub page<\/a><\/em> for more details. You can download HandBrake 1.8.2 as a Flatpak app from the same location if you want to install it on your favorite GNU\/Linux distribution if you have the Flatpak runtime pre-installed.<\/p>\n<p><i>Last updated 12 hours ago<\/i><\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HandBrake 1.8.2 has been released today for this powerful and popular open-source, cross-platform, and free video transcoder\/converter for GNU\/Linux, macOS, and Windows systems.
