Install HandBrake Video Transcoder on Ubuntu or Linux Mint

HandBrake is a cross-platform video transcoder that supports most common multimedia formats, DVDs or Bluray-like sources that aren't copy-protected. The application can even create chapters or add subtitles.

After more than a year, a new HandBrake version has been released: 0.9.6, and it includes many improvements, such as:

updated encoders / decoders
audio gain control (increase/decrease audio volume) and a new advanced audio GUI section for gain and audio track names
new AAC encoder
FLAC encoder (16-bit, MKV container only)
advanced options support for libavcodec
improved "Normal" preset (much faster, similar file size and quality)
added new device presets for Android phones/tablets recent and/or powerful devices
many other improvements and bug fixes

For a complete list of changes, check out the HandBrake 0.9.6 changelog.

Currently this is not available for Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin, So don't install it on Ubuntu 12.04
