I have no clue why the Baseline profile level 3.GUI: C++ (with Qt), Objective-C (with Cocoa), Swift, Java This is the cause for the significantly larger generated output file. I just realized that the new 'iPhone & iPod Touch' preset in Handbrake 0.9.4 does not include 'level=30' as it did in HB 0.9.3. This makes me wonder if the Constant Quality percentage values correspond to different quality depending on the version. Setting the CQ=58.82% in 0.9.4 still resulted in output file larger than CQ=60% in 0.9.3. I tried to convert an identical movie clip in both 0.9.3 and 0.9.4 using an 'almost' exactly the same settings, the only difference is CQ=60% in 0.9.3 and CQ=59.8% RF20.5 in 0.9.4, but it turned out that the output file generated by 0.9.4 is significantly larger than the one in 0.9.3. Does the constant quality percentage/RF in Handbrake 0.9.4 correspond to the same values as in Handbrake 0.9.3?
