I generally download the Handbrake nightly and use it for about a month before downloading a new version. So about a week ago I got a new nightly and wow is it faster. What happened?
I have a late 2009 MBP 2.83 ghz and I encode both SD DVD and Blu-Ray's as an MKV with an RF of 20 and DTS Passthrough. Before this new nightly I would see the following:
SD DVD - 24-26 FPS encode
Blu-Ray - 6-8 FPS encode
Now I am getting this:
SD DVD - 115-120 PFS encode
Blu-Ray - 22-25 PFS encode
That is a heck of a difference. The Handbrake version I got is '4080 svn'.
Was this just an optimization? Or a total rewrite (which I doubt). Whatever it was thank you Handbrake!!
