+HandBrake 1.7 Release: A Meaningful Update for This Year
+======
+The video converter tool comes with much-needed improvements.
+HandBrake, the popular open-source video transcoder, has received a new major release with some important upgrades. This release comes almost a year after the release of [HandBrake 1.6][1],
+
+Being one of the [best open-source video converters for Linux][2], HandBrake is a neat option preferred by many for their video conversion/transcoding needs.
+
+Let's take a look at what this release has to offer.
+
+## 🆕 HandBrake 1.7: What's New?
+
+![][3]
+
+HandBrake 1.7 features plenty of updates across the board.
+
+Some **key highlights** include:
+
+  * **Linux-Specific Improvements**
+  * **New AV1 Encoders**
+  * **Improved Performance**
+
+
+
+### Linux-Specific Improvements
+
+Support for **bit depth and HDR information** was added to the video summary, there is also a **new option to pause the encoding of a video** when switching to battery power or a power saving mode.
+
+Then there's the added **support for native file choosers** , **drag/drop support for video scanning** , the ability to **set automatic file naming options** , the r **emoval of the obsolete update checker** , and more.
+
+### New AV1 Encoders
+
+This has been the **major highlight of this release** , HandBrake now has support for two new AV1 encoders, **AMD VCN AV1** and **NVIDIA NVENC AV1**.
+
+Even **existing AV1 encoding support sees a boost** thanks to the implementation of multi-pass ABR mode for SVT-AV1.
+
+### Improved Performance
+
+The **performance of HandBrake sees a major boost** on CPU architectures such as **ARM64/AArch64** and **Apple Silicon**.
+
+Now, users can take advantage of the **new SVT-AV1 assembly optimizations** , **faster HEVC decoding** with the latest [FFmpeg][4] libraries and **30% faster bwdif filtering**.
+
+### 🛠️ Other Changes and Improvements
+
+As for the other refinements, here are some notable ones:
+
+  * Many third-party libraries were updated.
+  * The presets for Creator and Social were updated.
+  * New [Apple VideoToolbox][5] hardware presets were added.
+  * The dynamic range metadata pass through for Dolby Vision and HDR10+ were improved.
+
+
+
+It's been some time since I last used HandBrake. But, I am glad to see that it is still receiving the care it deserves.
+
+For complete technical details on this release, you may go through the [release notes][6].

+
+### How to Upgrade?
+
+HandBrake usually lets you know if there is a new update on Windows and macOS. The developers suggest you **back up any custom presets and app preferences** that you have set before performing the upgrade.
+
+**For Windows users** , the devs recommend installing Microsoft .NET Desktop Runtime [version 6.0.x][10] to be able to run this release properly.
+
+However, for **Linux users** , they will have to update it via the Flathub store, or reinstall it with the updated Flatpak bundles provided on the official site or the [GitHub repo][11].
+
+📋
+
+At the time of writing, the [Flathub store][12] version does not feature 1.7 release. You can expect it sooner.
