For those people who have just got a new Android phone or tablet, it would be a good idea to watch your own movies stored on computer local hard drive or DVD disc on Android phone or tablet especially when you are travelling outside. Most people choose to use the free open-source video encoder software - Handbrake to convert the unsupported video and rip non-protected DVD movies for viewing on Android. However, a lot of people have no idea how to use Hanbbrake to produce the best video settings for using on Android phone or tablet.

As a matter of fact, the newset version of Handbrake 0.10.5 has offered two Android preset profile options: "Android" and "Android Tablet". However, those two profile options seems a little out of date since there are so many Android phones and tablets, they all have different specification and screen display size, the two profile options offered by Handbrake can't fit with all devices. In that condition, you will suffer many playback issues such as incorrect aspect ratio, resolution, bit rate, frame rate, etc when using Handbrake to generate Android profile settings.
