<h1>Starting encoding</h1>
<p>Now that you&rsquo;ve got all your settings just right, it&rsquo;s time to make your new video!</p>
<h2>Selecting a destination</h2>
<p><code>Destination</code> is where your new video will go. You can select the <code>Browse...</code> button to choose a new location and name, or type it directly in the box.</p>
<p><img src="../images/destination.png" alt="Selecting a destination" /></p>
<p>Please take special care to <em>note your destination</em>. Otherwise, you won&rsquo;t be able to find your new video. You can move it later if you desire.</p>
<h2>Starting the encode</h2>
<p>Select the <code>Start</code> button on the toolbar to make your new video.</p>
<p><img src="../images/toolbar.png" alt="Main window toolbar" /></p>
<p><img src="../images/start-button.png" alt="Starting an encode" /></p>
<p>HandBrake will report its progress while it&rsquo;s working and alert you when it&rsquo;s finished. Then you will have a new video file at the <code>Destination</code> you specified.</p>

<p>Congratulations! You just encoded your first video using HandBrake. It&rsquo;s now ready to watch on your devices.</p>
<h2>Next steps</h2>
<p>If you didn&rsquo;t get a video file as expected, encountered an error, or had some other trouble, you can continue reading to learn more about how HandBrake works or jump right to <a href="../help/index.html">Getting help</a>.</p>
