-The reasons being that I don't want to shoehorn my other packages into using libav. I can install it manually and just use avconv whenever I want to. Installing HandBrake from source will use libav anyway.

 7.3.0 can read teletext straight from an MPEG-2 transport stream and convert it directly to an SRT and it has better handling of broken MPEG-2 transport streams. 7.4.0 more teletext fixes. 7.5.0 has more bug fixes related to MPEG transport streams. 7.7.0 has lots of changes to reading AC3 and Blu-ray audio codecs. 7.8.0 has new features for detecting DTS streams. 7.9.0 lots more added features and bug fixes for reading Dolby Digital, DTS, DTS-HD streams. 7.3.0 can read teletext straight from an MPEG-2 transport stream and convert it directly to an SRT and it has better handling of broken MPEG-2 transport streams. 7.4.0 more teletext fixes. 7.5.0 has more bug fixes related to MPEG transport streams. 7.7.0 has lots of changes to reading AC3 and Blu-ray audio codecs. 7.8.0 has new features for detecting DTS streams. 7.9.0 lots more added features and bug fixes for reading Dolby Digital, DTS, DTS-HD streams.

 +Since this is using Matroska, it's not intended to be backwards compatible with anything (PS3, PS4, DLNA, USB). My target hardware is Android TV.

 +  * HandBrake 1.0.2 minimum, 1.0.7 maximum OR
 +  * libav 12.0 to libav 12.3
 +  * Chapter support
 +  * Matroska container
 +  * x264 with tune animation, film, or grain, slow preset at minimum
 +  * H.264 profile high level 4.1 minimum, 5.1 maximum
 +  * CRF minimum of 23, maximum of 14
 +  * 30 or 60 constant fps
 +  * FDK AAC default bitrate (let HandBrake decide) OR
 +  * AC3 re-encode default bitrate (also let HandBrake decide)
 +  * smpte170m color set
 +  * VobSub or Closed Captioning, first English language stream, prefer VobSub
 +
 +If I *did* want to make it backwards compatible, here's all that would change:
 +
 +  * FDK AAC only
 +  * MPEG4 container
 +
 +If I wanted to be even more strict to avoid throwing off certain hardware:
 +
 +  * No VobSub or Closed Captioning
 +  * No chapter support
 +  * Variable framerate same as source or 30 constant fps
 +  * medium preset
