View Full Version : Set Handbrake to 'do nothing' after an encode queue

Something is confusing me about Handbrake settings in 10.3.

I've seen system shut down after an encode queue of some DVD segments and thought my CPU was overheating.

After shortening the number of jobs, the behavior or machine shutdown continues.

I've looked in Handbrake settings and cannot see where a
shut down after queue default might be.

Ok, I'll look again and see if I can stabilize it.

Today I learned something as well.

The VidCoder build on the Handbrake code by RandonEngy has a CPU throttle which I applied at 2/3 in my current job. This should take the stress and heat of the CPU even if the time increases a bit.

Checking the throttle can be done in Windows 7 or other 'task manager display.

I've used both programs but am still finding where the features and settings are.

Maybe it's just a glitch in Handbrake. I checked the settings
screen and it does indeed show 'do nothing' but has shut down
repeatedly.

Vidcoder is behaving properly and I've done some encodes now as a test and no shutdown occurs.
