7. Click on the Video tab and then set the Video Encoder to your preferred choice. If you have a compatible GPU, in my case an Nvidia RTX 4070, you can select a hardware encoder such as NVEnc. This greatly speeds up the encoding process, but ripping the DVD depends on the speed of your DVD drive.
8. Set the framerate to Constant Framerate and check that it matches the source framerate. If we change the framerate, then the resulting file will look odd when played back on modern screens.
9. Check that the save location and file name are correct, and then click Start Encode to start the ripping process. The ripping process will take some time; encoding with a GPU should take next to no time.
If you plan to rip TV series episodes, the episodes can be “queued,” and Handbrake will automatically move on after each is done.
10. Follow steps 1 to 8, but instead of clicking Start Encode, click on Add to Queue. Notice that the Queue counter increments to show that there are multiple files to be ripped.
11. Click on Start Queue, and Handbrake will start ripping all the titles in the queue.
12. Check the files using your preferred media player. I opened all of the episodes in VLC and moved around the timeline to check that everything was fine.
You’ve successfully ripped your DVDs to files on your computer; now you can take your movie collection with you for your work commute, flights, or family car journeys.
