In order to make this image work, you need Docker >= 19.03 and the latest NVIDIA driver using the official Nvidia installer and nvidia-docker2 installed on your host system.

An official guide by Nvidia can be found here.

NOTE: The Docker command provided in this quick start is given as an example and parameters should be adjusted to your need.

Launch the HandBrake docker container with the following command:

docker run -d -t \
    --name=handbrake \
    -p 5800:5800 \
    -v <replace/the/path>:/config:rw \
    -v <replace/the/path>:/storage:ro \
    -v <replace/the/path>:/watch:rw \
    -v <replace/the/path>:/output:rw \
    --gpus all \
    zocker160/handbrake-nvenc:latest

• --gpus all this enables the passthrough to the GPU(s)
• Port 5800: for WebGUI
• Port 5900: for VNC client connection
• /config: This is where the application stores its configuration, log and any files needing persistency.
• /storage: This location contains files from your host that need to be accessible by the application.
• /watch: This is where videos to be automatically converted are located.
• /output: This is where automatically converted video files are written.

Browse to http://your-host-ip:5800 to access the HandBrake GUI.

Files from the host appear under the /storage folder in the container.

• -e AUTOMATED_CONVERSION_PRESET (default: "Very Fast 1080p30")
