If someone has figured out how to drive HandBrake like that,
can they<br>
please post how it's done?<br>
<br>
With SD, I used to use lossless transcode to cut adverts and

archive with HandBrake, but now most of my content is HD, I've<br>
more or less given up.<font color="#888888"></font><br>

For my HD recordings, I use mythtranscode with the --mpeg2 and
--honorcutlist options to create a new file, then send that to
HandBrakeCLI with "--preset Normal" to create the final video.
For me, Handbrake's output file is around 1/10th the size of its
input file.<br>

That doesn't sound right. By clipping commercials, you're going to
chop off maybe 35% of a recording. MPEG2 to H264 is going to get
you another 2-3x. I could see 1/5th the original recording, but not
1/10th unless you're downscaling the video.<br>
