                           Be aware that not specifying a framerate lets
                           HandBrake preserve a source's time stamps,
                           potentially creating variable framerate video
   --vfr, --cfr, --pfr     Select variable, constant or peak-limited
                           frame rate control. VFR preserves the source
                           timing. CFR makes the output constant rate at
                           the rate given by the -r flag (or the source's
                           average rate if no -r is given). PFR doesn't
                           allow the rate to go over the rate specified
                           with the -r flag but won't change the source
                           timing if it's below that rate.
                           If none of these flags are given, the default
                           is --pfr when -r is given and --vfr otherwise

                           output. Provide the language's ISO 639-2 code

                           values amplify. A 1 dB difference is barely
                           audible.

                           This determines the display aspect during playback,
                           which may differ from the storage aspect.

   --itu-par               Use wider ITU pixel aspect values for loose and
                           custom anamorphic, useful with underscanned sources
   --no-itu-par            Disable preset 'itu-par'
   --modulus <number>      Set storage width and height modulus
                           Dimensions will be made divisible by this number.
                           (default: set by preset, typically 2)
   -M, --color-matrix <string>
                           Set the color space signaled by the output:
                           Overrides color signalling with no conversion.

                           deinterlace only those frames where interlacing

Subtitles Options ------------------------------------------------------------

  --subtitle-lang-list <string>
                           Specify a comma separated list of subtitle
                           languages you would like to select from the
                           source title. By default, the first subtitle
                           matching each language will be added to your
                           output. Provide the language's ISO 639-2 code
                           (e.g. fre, eng, spa, dut, et cetera)
      --all-subtitles      Select all subtitle tracks matching languages in
                           the specified language list
                           (--subtitle-lang-list).
                           Any language if list is not specified.
      --first-subtitle     Select first subtitle track matching languages in
                           the specified language list
                           (--subtitle-lang-list).
                           Any language if list is not specified.
  -s, --subtitle <string>  Select subtitle track(s), separated by commas
                           More than one output track can be used for one
                           input. "none" for no subtitles.
                           Example: "1,2,3" for multiple tracks.
                           A special track name "scan" adds an extra first
                           pass. This extra pass scans subtitles matching
                           the language of the first audio or the language 
                           selected by --native-language.
                           The one that's only used 10 percent of the time
                           or less is selected. This should locate subtitles
                           for short foreign language segments. Best used in
                           conjunction with --subtitle-forced.
  -S, --subname <string>   Set subtitle track name(s).
                           Separate tracks by commas.
  -F, --subtitle-forced[=string]
                           Only display subtitles from the selected stream
                           if the subtitle has the forced flag set. The
                           values in 'string' are indexes into the
                           subtitle list specified with '--subtitle'.
                           Separate tracks by commas.
                           Example: "1,2,3" for multiple tracks.
                           If "string" is omitted, the first track is
                           forced.

                           "Burn" the selected subtitle into the video
                           track. If "subtitle" is omitted, the first
                           track is burned. "subtitle" is an index into
                           the subtitle list specified with '--subtitle'
                           or "native" to burn the subtitle track that may
                           be added by the 'native-language' option.
      --subtitle-default[=number or "none"]
                           Flag the selected subtitle as the default
                           subtitle to be displayed upon playback.  Setting
                           no default means no subtitle will be displayed
                           automatically. 'number' is an index into the
                           subtitle list specified with '--subtitle'.
                           "none" may be used to override an automatically
                           selected default subtitle track.
  -N, --native-language <string>
                           Specify your language preference. When the first
                           audio track does not match your native language
                           then select the first subtitle that does. When
                           used in conjunction with --native-dub the audio
                           track is changed in preference to subtitles.
                           Provide the language's ISO 639-2 code
                           (e.g. fre, eng, spa, dut, et cetera)
      --native-dub         Used in conjunction with --native-language
                           requests that if no audio tracks are selected the
                           default selected audio track will be the first
                           one that matches the --native-language. If there
                           are no matching audio tracks then the first
                           matching subtitle track is used instead.
