We hope to bring this to Linux user in the future. + - DXVA Hardware Decode support (Experimental) + Windows Only. + Suitable only for slower machines so disabled in preferences by default. + - Choice of Scalers + Lanczos + HandBrakes? default scaler. + Bicubic (OpenCL) (Experimental) + Currently only available in OpenCL form so requires a AMD or Intel GPU supporting OpenCL 1.1 or later. Nvidia GPU's are not currently supported. + When downscaling, up to 5% performance improvement can be achieved. No benefit when not down-scaling. + Small loss in quality over the Lanczos scaler. + - Denoise + hqdn3d filter now accepts individual settings for both chroma channels (Cr, Cb) + New NlMeans? denoiser. This is very slow, but results are significantly better than hqdn3d. + - Presets + Added Windows Phone 8 Preset + - Updated Libraries + x264 r2431-ac76440 + Libav v10.1 + libbluray 0.5.0 + - Libavformat is now used for muxing instead of mp4v2 and libmkv + "Large File Size" checkbox has now bee removed for mp4, as the new muxer will transition to 64bit files automatically. + mp4v2 and libmkv options have now been removed. + mpeg2dec has also been replaced in favour of using libav + - The LibAV AAC encoder is now the default as FAAC has been removed. + This encoder is adequate for most, but until it improves a bit further, we have enabled support for the FDK-AAC encoder also. + This FDK option is a temporary measure until the LibAV encoder improves. + Note that FDK-AAC is much slower and will likely bottleneck the encode process, but will produce better quality audio. + - H.265 encoder (Experimental - available when compiled from source with --enable-x265) + Early build of the new x265 encoder. Enabled on Windows only currently. (Mac / Linux builds will have it enabled shortly) + Currently still some way off being ready for prime time. Useful for testing only at this stage. + - Added VP8 Encoder (using libvpx) + Available in MKV files only. + - Removed mcdeint deinterlace and decomb modes. This relied on the snow encoder in libav which has been was removed by upstream. + - Bug fixes and Misc Improvements + + Windows + - Accessibility / Usability Improvements + Added option to 'Use System Colors'. The app should now be usable in a High Contrast mode. + Fixed Tab ordering to make the app more keyboard friendly. + - LibHB is now used for scanning instead of the CLI. + - Improved the layout and design of the Audio and Subtitle tabs. + Split buttons similar to the old 0.9.8 WinForms? GUI + Improved layout on the track listbox to make better use of the space. + - Improvements to Auto-Naming feature. + - When Done + Added an option that will reset this to 'Do nothing' when the app is closed and restarted. + - Presets + New 'Presets' Menu + Presets bar can now be hidden if it's not wanted. + - Numerous bug fixes + Fixed the Issue in the source dropdown where the drive menu items did not work when clicked. + Numerous fixes in the Picture settings panel around resolution calculation. + Numerous fixes around the way Presets are loaded and saved, particularly around Picture settings. + Removed Growl for Windows support due to bugs and issues with this library that remain unfixed. Project appears abandoned. + Many misc other fixes. + - Windows XP is no longer supported. Windows Vista with Service Pack 2 or later is now a requirement. + + Mac + - Build system updates to compiled under OS X 10.9 + - Automatic audio and subtitle track selection behaviours which can be stored per preset. + - Improvements to Auto-Naming feature. + - Misc UI enhancements. + - Bug fixes and Misc Improvements + + Linux + - Automatic audio and subtitle track selection behaviours which can be stored per preset. + - Improvements to Auto-Naming feature. + - Batch Add to queue by list selection. + - Russian and Czech Translations + - Bug fixes and Misc Improvements + - Requires GTK3 + + Command Line Interface + - Basic support for return codes from the CLI.
