VLC media player, alternative Linux à HandBrake
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
VLC media player can serve as a basic replacement for HandBrake for users who only need simple format conversion and occasional batch jobs. It offers a graphical interface, preset profiles, and hardware‑accelerated encoding, but it lacks the depth of HandBrake’s advanced controls such as fine‑tuned bitrate, frame‑rate, and multi‑track audio handling. It is best suited for casual users who prefer a single application that also plays media, while power users who need detailed encoding options should stick with HandBrake.

Ce qui change
- VLC’s conversion interface is less granular; no per‑track bitrate control
- VLC lacks advanced subtitle options like multiple subtitle tracks and advanced burning
- VLC does not support advanced container options (e.g., MKV chapter editing)
- VLC’s batch processing is limited compared to HandBrake’s queue system
- VLC does not offer as many audio codec options or detailed audio track selection
Ouvrir vos fichiers HandBrake
HandBrake does not produce a proprietary file format; it outputs standard media files (MP4, MKV, etc.). VLC can open and convert these files without issue. There is no special migration of HandBrake project files into VLC, as VLC does not store project presets in a separate format.
Passer de HandBrake à VLC media player, étape par étape
- 1. Install VLC (e.g., via apt: sudo apt install vlc).
- 2. Open VLC, go to Media → Convert / Save, and add the source file.
- 3. Choose a preset or create a custom profile matching the desired output format.
- 4. Select the destination file and start the conversion.
- 5. For batch jobs, use the command line: vlc input.mp4 --sout '#transcode{vcodec=h264,acodec=mp3}:std{access=file,mux=mp4,dst=output.mp4}'.
- 6. Verify the output and adjust profile settings if needed.

Does VLC support hardware‑accelerated encoding?
Yes, VLC can use hardware acceleration (e.g., VAAPI, NVENC) when available, but the options are less exposed than in HandBrake.
Can I use VLC to burn subtitles into a video?
VLC can burn subtitles during conversion, but the interface is basic and lacks the fine‑grained timing controls HandBrake offers.
Is VLC suitable for batch encoding large libraries?
VLC can batch encode via command line, but its queue management is rudimentary compared to HandBrake’s dedicated queue system.
