Sorry it’s taken so long to get a new release together, but I’ve been really busy as of late. I’ve gotten some major bugs fixes though, and one or two nice feature requests Here’s the changelog since 1.0.94.0:

NEW: Soft-Subtitles can now be merged into the output file for Apple devices. Just place an SRT or SUB file with the same name in the same folder as your source video
NEW: Settings are now stored with the application (EncodeHD.Settings) for full app portability
NEW: Check For Updates on Startup option in Advanced Settings
CHANGE: Apple Device files are now always created with the M4V extension
CHANGE: Failed encoding now cancels the entire queue
CHANGE: Advanced Settings UI updated
CHANGE: Renamed a few Settings
CHANGE: Updated FFmpeg to r19393
CHANGE: Updated MediaInfo to 0.7.18+ 07-07-2009
FIX: Resolution scaling was sometimes calculated incorrectly, leading to unsupported video files on certain devices
FIX: Checking for updates on startup could hang for a few seconds during DNS resolution
FIX: “Value not multiple of 2″ error could occur when encoding
FIX: Auto-splitting would sometimes be skipped

EncodeHD Status Update

Hey Guys,

Just a quick post. I’m a little behind on the next release of EncodeHD. I’ve been hard at work trying to implement support for soft-subtitles on Apple devices. In the process I’ve managed to break numerous things, so trying to get a number of bugs sorted out. Meanwhile, I’m extremely busy with work, and my evenings are being spent repainting my apartment! :O

Stay tuned, the next release isn’t too far away. Oh, and if anyone is interested in helping me test soft-subs, please get in touch!

Dan

Hi all,

Another minor bugfix release, as I’m still pretty limited on time at the moment – this should sort out the major outstanding issues though:

CHANGE: FFmpeg updated to SVN-r18709
CHANGE: MediaInfo updated to 0.7.15 (Fixes MediaInfo unable to detect audio streams in some MPEG2 video files)
FIX: Incorrectly set buffer size on non-English locales causes FFmpeg bitrate error
FIX: Frequent audio drop-outs when stream remapping was required

Download is available in the EncodeHD section.

Cheers, Dan

EncodeHD 1.0.85.0 Released

Dan Cunningham — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 20:49:28 +0000

Hi all,

Time continues to be very limited at the moment, and so there’s no new features as such in this release, it’s mainly about fixing some bugs that have been encountered.

CHANGE: Proper snarl registration and improved messaging
CHANGE: FFmpeg updated to SVN-r18639
CHANGE: MediaInfo SVN-0.7.14+ (20/04/2009)
CHANGE: Small updates to Update Checking to be more robust
FIX: Under certain conditions, advanced flags would duplicate values in the FFmpeg command-line, causing the encode to fail

Download is available in the EncodeHD section. Hope you enjoy!
