message: I don't get Wikipedians-- there is no discussion of the notability on the PHREEKING talk page and yet it's still tagged, basically as a candidate for deletion?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lequis (talk • contribs) 04:39, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: So why is it tagged?  There are probably hundreds of applications on Mac OS X and Windows and Linux based operating systems that have pages on Wikipedia, I know I use Wikipedia to look up basic information about any given application that I come across since I like to avoid the marketing speak that is usually on the actual software page (which sometimes forgets to mention what the application is supposed to do and just jumps to features) and HandBrake I would say is very notable simply because of what it does: it rips DVDs, and is at least as notable as VLC.--sebastianlewis (talk) 09:34, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. I also think that there should be something in this article about how HandBrake's support, like all open source, blows serious ass. More because it doesn't work in 10.3. Lequis (talk) 22:20, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Handbrake is not a commercial app, it isn't supposed to come with support, and OS X 10.3 is over 5 years old at this point. Mrsteveman1 (talk) 01:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

text: Well, I re-added the tag because this article fails to comply with Wikipedia Notability guideline as it does not introduce any secondary reliable source and it is written like an advertisement. You people have 7 days to respond. After that, if the notability issue is disregarded, I'll be nominating this article for deletion. You can have your say in the deletion discussion page.

replies: text: Fair enough, but why the "List --> Prose tag?  I think this features list works quite well as a list, no reason to complicate it with superflous text. 
--67.193.139.226 (talk) 17:46, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: That is a separate problem. However, Pros is not equal to complication. On the contrary, prose often simplifies things at the cost of slight increase in length. Besides, list of features makes an advertisement out of the article. An encyclopedic article is expected to make understanding easier, not the other way around. Fleet Command (talk) 06:54, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Note that upon review, the copied content, while verbatim, covers two exhaustive lists of features, which are to be considered as a listing of facts. The concerns about copy / pasting respectively close paraphrasing are, in this case, not founded. MLauba (talk) 12:35, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: List of fact which saves you from the trouble of writing an article yourself and makes this article look like a product advertisement. Looks like well-founded to me. Nonetheless, founded or unfounded, neither advertisement nor list of indiscriminate items are allowed in Wikipedia. I wonder if this page is ever nominated for deletion.

message: Acording to their download page, http://handbrake.fr/downloads.phphttp://handbrake.fr/downloads.php, Version '0.9.4 is no longer available due to compatibility issues with the newer version of gnome'.
I'll see about changing the reference to Linux near the top of the page when I have more time.

message: There are two collective lists in this short treatise. One list is comprised of tow sub-lists: Input & Output. This is a very logical and concise manner in which one may relay information. The other list is a list of features. A list of features is a commonality of software. Not only is it a commonality, but it is pretty much the best way to ovoid obfuscation.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.67.10.129 (talk) 05:25, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: It does. From May-June 2006 no code changes where made, until February 2007, when code changes became official and where then released under the HandBrake brand. It’s all there in the article.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.135.94.51 (talk) 13:29, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  'List Format' 

message: Article lists e.g. AAC and mp3. Does HandBrake developers wrote encoders to these formats or is HandBrake just a frontend for tools like FAAC and LAME? Same question apply to Theora and Vorbis. Qndel (talk) 20:10, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Formats support 

message: * This article did not mention GStreamer at all, though at least the Debian package depends on it. See https://packages.debian.org/sid/handbrake
* Of course the article also don't mention whether HandBrake makes use of available video acceleration hardware for the de- and the encoding. What a different this can make, you can see e.g. here: http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/amd_a8_7600_apu_review,13.html

The section about hardware acceleration isn't related to HandBrake at all. It should either say if/how HandBrake uses hardware acceleration, or be removed.--88.73.56.133 (talk) 23:40, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
