I really like Asian Kung Fu movies and want to re-encode them and hard code/burn in the subs. What is the best method to do this leaving original file size and quality as close to the original file as possible? I've had some luck with AVC and Handbrake, but find the output size/quality hard to predict. Any suggestions?
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

Use Handbrake/Vidcoder and if you really want to set a specific size use 2-pass encode
-
Use bitrate based encoding when you want a specific file size. With bitrate based encoding 2 pass encoding gives better quality than single pass encoding.

That's the problem with bitrate based encoding. There's no way to know the optimal bitrate.
With bitrate based encoding you pick the file size but you don't know what the quality will be. With CRF based encoding you pick the quality but you don't know what the file size will be. -

You can make it faster, like:
Code:ffmpeg -i original.mp4 -vf subtitles=subfile.srt -preset veryfast output.mp4 ffmpeg -i original.mp4 -vf "ass=subfile.ssa" -preset veryfast output.mp4

HandBrake is based on ffmpeg. Getting the same speed/file size from both is only a matter of choosing the same settings.
