I will try that for my next encode. Probably hard for me to tell if the video is smooth when cars is on for the 50th time. I just sent a few full bd MKVs to my NAS to replace some mp4 rips. I will have to read the handbrake guide regarding anamorphic settings a couple of more times.

Joey >>> I would recommend using the setting for Frame rate mode :Constant
Isn’t selecting “original frame rate” pretty much the same thing, and better than selecting a different frame rate?

Yes mike, Original / Constant same thing (the 23.976fps was an example, based on eric’s original Bluray Source)
I was not suggesting selecting a “different” framerate from the original source framerate.
Still weird for Handbrake to default to VFR.
OK, got it Joey. Thanks. Yes, whenever I run across a setting for frame rate to adjust, I always select same as original and don’t select VFR unless that was the original setting. I seem to recall most all are a constant rate.
As for the m4v files I make with Handbrake for the iPad (and now a 7" Kindle Fire HD, too) I use the prefab (default) setting in Handbrake for iPad. I know others here tweak Handbrake, but the defaults work fine for me (I figure the geeks who set it up know more about it than I do) and my m4v files are all just fine for what I want to use them for.
