How do delete scenes from a mp4/mkv/etc while keeping the subtitles...

fahadhum do you or do you not still have the noise?

Are you or are you not still concerned with the noise?

The noise is no longer there.By using handbrake (as apposed to Hard-coding subtitles via VLC ) , A VERY LIGHT NOISE comes out which doesn't seems to be a problem.

Also,i just realized a few days earlier that i have not cleaned my RIG's inside , PROPERLY i.e v.i.a using a Compressed Air Can or similar.Which i plan to do tomorrow.

I bought my System in like , February & i tried to clean it using my own blown air :) or using some cloth.But of course , that is not enough.And there will be dust in many unreachable corners of the system.

I am really not that concerned after installing this Corsair FAN ..Trust me , the stock Fan was not good.good. Cuz my system's case was burning after i was done GAMING.But not anymore.May be , it is also due to the fact that i do not keep my system in a closed space.I am using my Mom's Table space just to give roam for my 32 inch LED LCD T.V which i can not use on the same computer table with my RIG :)

Handbrake settings suggestions -

picture tab -
anamorphic none (ie square pixels), keep aspect ratio = output file has same pixel size

video tab -
quality to R = less compression (larger filesize), quality to L = more compression (smaller filesize)
or set bitrate - R click original file > properties > details > check bitrate > set new bitrate to same value
and 2 pass, turbo 1st pass

audio -
mixdown = stereo

Will convert again with these settings & let you know....

Well , after applying your settings.The results are satisfactory.As the Original File Size of the Movie File that i converted for testing was 1.35 GB & the resulting output Movie File size is 1.46 GB.

However ..huh ...I saw some drop in the video quality.I am the kind of guy who likes to keep things in a NEXT TO PERFECT QUALITY :) Call me weird.But that's how i am.

I noticed the drop and trust me , i can tell.The facial features of the actors in the movie as well as of the objects and things in the movie were choppy (slightly).

I then opened the original Movie File and i quickly noticed the difference....

Any video conversion will degrade quality to some degree - it's a fact of life. That's why (referring to Avidemux) I mentioned cutting a movie on the I-frames, because no recoding happens.

re: cleaning systems with 'compressed air can' - although commonly known as 'air duster', these aerosols contain liquid hydrocarbons (butane, propane etc) not air. If used upside down or at an angle, liquid may be squirted out which on evaporation causes freezing. This can cause condensation to form on mobo or components, resulting in a short circuit when the pc is powered up. Also the gas should not be inhaled. Air dusters are OK if used sensibly.

So,after much trial and error & using different Video Editing Software's such as HANDBRAKE , SMART CUTTER ..

I realized that FREE STUDIO MANAGER had the BEST RESULTS.And no only BEST , it is 100% accurate (in my opinion) when it comes to the final Edited Video file.

When i cut a 4 minutes (Approximately) scene from a movie (While keeping he ORIGINAL FORMAT option selected),the output file's size actually decreased and DID NOT MADE THE MOVIE FILE SIZE BIGGER unlike HANDBRAKE .Plus,their was NO DROP in Video Quality , like NONE (in my opinion)..

So, YAY :) However,now i have to rearrange the Subtitles of the whole movie file.It will not be easy..But at least , now i can delete the UNWANTED & SOMETIMES INAPPROPRIATE SCENES from any film that i want ..

Also, any process of ADDING / PREPARING a Movie file or CUTTING or SAVING the final video file does not take SO MANY MINUTES unlike what happened while using Handbrake..So,this is a SWEEEEET Solution.And,i got to know about this software by someone on seven forums.So,thanks to seven-forums for that as well :)

Thank you all for your suggestions and recommendations ....
