Hello!

After encoding an old video recorded with ShareX, which output heavy videos, thus the reason why my game have stopped working because the tool use all space, I am surprised that Handbrake encodes the video into a bigger file instead of a lighter.

Not sure why it happened. It is because ShareX encode video differently?

I don't know how encoding works and if this is a quirk or not but worth sharing if this report is really an issue.

Handbrake version: 1.10.2 (2025090600)
Settings: No Cropping, Very Slow Encoding Preset, Constant Frame Rate, 30 IPS, Quality: 22, H.264, 1920x1080px
ShareX version: 16.1.0 (Original Video recorded on 8th August 2024)
