E-AC3 is already a supported encoder. You should be able to select it from the list and set the bitrate.

I guess we forgot to add it to the list in the Windows version 🤷‍♂️

Thanks for the reply. So, I should be able to select the E-AC3 option in
the next release?

I guess it should be included somewhere here, after AC3: https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/blob/f3a438dcbd3003215fbf6555b99c85f28c6aab3a/win/CS/HandBrakeWPF/Services/Encode/Model/Models/AudioEncoder.cs#L39

At this point I would like to say, that the order should be changed in the Windows version - the one from Linux/MacOS looks better sorted, especially with Auto Passthru at bottom or top and TrueHD next to (E-)AC3.

Sidenote: AAC (CoreAudio) is also missing.

[sr55]

CoreAudio is not missing. It will never be included for license reasons.

@sr55 Seems like this could/should be in 1.3.3? Needs a quick test to double check functionality.
