dit document gives a few tips on how to troubleshoot problems with Handbrake.
check the logs
- button: Activity Log
- you can browse to the log directory of previous activity
- search for the string “duration” and compare that value with the length of your ripped file. It should be 1:1
- you can see at what point the ripping failed:
[16:23:22] sync: "Chapter 4" (4) at frame 14913 time 53683200^M [16:26:21] sync: "Chapter 5" (5) at frame 27479 time 98920800^M [16:29:13] sync: "Chapter 6" (6) at frame 38866 time 139914000^M dvdnav: Read Error, Error reading from DVD.^M [16:29:35] reader: done. 1 scr changes^M [16:29:36] work: average encoding speed for job is 63.288017 fps^M
check your physical media
- start by cleaning your media
- observe if reading the DVD in Handbrake is fluent.
- if the DVD-writer makes an unusual sound while reading, you'll probably have problems with the rip later on.
try ripping again
- rip the episode separately (not part of a queue!). That has helped me on more than one occasion.
It seems that ripping bails out easier when queued than when ripping separately … - example:
- Medium S2 D3-4.mkv 04-28-2020 12-27-55.txt
- Medium S2 D3-4.mkv 04-28-2020 14-03-15.txt
- check the logs: if the rip fails at the same point, it is most likely the physical media.
- Medium S2 D4-5.mkv 04-28-2020 10-46-17.txt
restart handbrake completely
- it's a bit of a drag, but it helps sometimes.
try ripping with alternative tool
- makemkv is a good candidate, but usually the ripping bails out at the same point…
play the episode in VLC
- open the ripped file in VLC and see at what point in time it fails
- open the same episode from the original dvd and see if it fails/hangs at the same point.
- If so, it is clearly a dvd (disk) issue. In that case, you could get a copy of the public library and try ripping that.
