 #### General
 
+- Added project Code of Conduct and Contributing guide
+  - See [HandBrake on GitHub](https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake)
+- Switched core decoding library from Libav to FFmpeg
+  - Fixes numerous sources previously unreadable or otherwise broken
+  - Facilitates a number of the improvements and features in this release and planned for the future
+- Removed deprecated Legacy presets
+  - See the [list of compatible replacements on GitHub](https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake-docs/blob/efb51cc2cd7d0c30fa5e9ee88366233ca34757a4/source/docs/en/latest/technical/official-presets.markdown#legacy-010x-presets)
+- Updated official presets descriptions to revise compatibility and mention recently released devices
+- Updated official presets to rename Fire TV to Amazon Fire and added Amazon Fire 720p30 preset
+- Updated official presets to use stereo instead of DPL2 mixdown
+  - Avoids potential spatial positioning issues with the current DPL2 algorithm and wide pans in source material
+  - Limited in impact since DPL2 decoding has not been in widespread use for years
+- Added `{creation-date}`, `{creation-time}`, and `{source-path}` to automatic file naming
+  - `{source-path}` is not yet available on Mac
+
 #### Video
 
-- Added Support for Nvidia NVENC encoder. (Windows Only. Linux Coming Soon)
-- Added Support for AMD VCE encoder. (Windows Only)

+- Added support for decoding TIFF/LZMA video
 
 ### Audio
 
-- Improved AAC Encoder. This encoder is no longer considered beta.
-- Allow E-AC3 Muxing in MP4
+- Fixed potential decoding issue for audio lacking an explicit channel layout (intelligently guess the layout)
+- Fixed a potential crash during audio probe
+- Improved resampling to allow dithering for all codecs (only where necessary)
+- Improved quality of the default AAC encoder on non-Mac platforms (FFmpeg AAC), no longer experimental
+- Improved bit rate constraints to allow Opus as low as 6 kbit/s per channel
+- Added support for up to 7.1 channel AAC encoding (note that FDK AAC/HE-AAC do not support 6.1)
+- Added support for E-AC3 audio in MP4 container
+- Added Speex audio decoder
+
+#### Subtitles
+
+- Fixed a potential crash where an SRT file cannot be opened
+- Added support for SRT files using periods instead of commas to delineate fractions
 
 #### Command line interface
 
+- Fixed inability to override preset subtitles burn setting (`native` and `none` are now valid values for `--subtitle-burned`)
+

+- Improved support for building with Xcode 10
+- Improved support for building on FreeBSD 11, 12, and 13
+- Improved Flatpak packaging for Linux (numerous fixes and improvements, no longer experimental)
+- Improved `configure.py` to always use the Python executable found by `configure`

+- Added support for selecting a compiler via the CC environment variable
+- Added initial support for Travis CI
+- Miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements
