If you're encoding with #Handbrake is there a way to emphasize voices (as opposed to music and effects) without making everyone sound like Serpentor?

#Linux #Question

I'm having an odd issue with a video project lately.

I #render the #video to MXF from #DavinciResolve, and the audio to WAV. I then render the MXF to MP4 (H264) using #Handbrake then combine the MP4 and WAV into and MKV using MKVToolNix.

Never had an issue doing this before but one person is struggling to watch the produced videos. They either don't load or error part way through. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to start looking to narrow down the problem? #VideoEditing

normally i'd create a script for ffmpeg, but this morning i wanted to use #handbrake and #ableton to stitch together video clips of different aspect ratios, adding pillars with handbrake, gain + comp + rendering video in ableton.
1) Dimensions > Borders > "Fill" has been broken/missing on Handbrake for Windows for years, but not mac. #github issues for it are all closed.
2) Ableton & other apps still have problems displaying video in a dual-monitor context. I had to unplug all my monitors :P

@Mr_NutterButter #Handbrake, or #Tdarr are the best option's I've found, without resorting to ffmpeg via cli.
