I was using Handbrake to rip the DVDs of a certain low-budget 90's TV show (I am too embarrassed to say which) and noticed that certain special effects could confuse/anger Handbrake. Specifically, some cheap effect used to give a flat image the illusion of depth by making its outline gyrate back and forth combined with a lens flare, the effect was muted/eliminated when Handbrake ripped it, as though Handbrake was trying to stabilize the video or something. The effect was still visible on the raw MKV rip, but not after Handbrake's transcode.
