Veranderingen voor v0.10.1 - v0.10.3
- 0.10.3 marks our 4th release of our 0.10.x branch. This provides another set if fixes for common bugs that have been raised over the last few months. All going well this will be the last bug fix release for this branch as we look to finish up the major 1.0 release. More details on this will follow in the coming months
Veranderingen voor v0.10.1 - v0.10.2 Beta 1
- a minor bugfix release only. There are no new features.
Veranderingen voor v0.10 - v0.10.1
- In an attempt to move away from our yearly release cycle, we have decided to start publishing interim fix releases. 0.10.1 marks the first of these releases. It's focus is to fix some common bugs rather than introduce the new features we are working on in the background for 1.0.
- Release Highlights
- - Various bug fixes for all platforms and the core engine.
- - Updated x265 to 1.5 which brings numerous bug fixes and some performance improvements.
Veranderingen voor v0.10 - v0.10.1 Beta 1
- 0.10.1 is a minor bugfix release only. There are no new features.
Veranderingen voor v0.9.9 - v0.10
- General
- Core
- Intel QuickSync Video Encode / Decode support.
- Windows only currently. We hope to bring this to Linux in the future but not for 0.10.
- Hardware Decode support via DXVA (Experimental - Windows Only)
- Decoding of some H.264, VC1 and WMV content via the GPU.
- Can provide a small improvement on slower hardware. Not suitable for fast CPU's
- Choice of Scalers
- Lanczos
- This is currently Handbrake's default scaler and will remain so.
- Bicubic (OpenCL) (Experimental)
- Available on the Command Line (All Platforms) and Windows GUI. (Mac / Linux GUI's will come in a later release)
- 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 downscaling.
- 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 r2479-dd79a61
- Libav v10.1
- libbluray 0.5.0

- 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
- Using x265 v1.4
- This encoder is still early in it's development, so is missing many H.265 features and optimisations.
- 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 more 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.
- Experiential Preview window is now available as a result. (Can be enabled via preferences)
- 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.

- 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.
- The 32bit build of the application is now considered deprecated. This is due to 32bit process memory limitations.
- 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
- 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

Veranderingen voor v0.9.2 - v0.9.3
- Universal input
- HandBrake is no longer limited to DVDs: it will now accept practically any type of video as a source. This massive enhancement was achieved by tapping into the power of libavcodec and libavformat from the FFmpeg project.
- Linux GUI
- There is now an official GTK graphical interface for Linux, available as a binary for Ubuntu. This is the real deal, interacting directly with HandBrake's core library instead of just putting a pretty face on a command line interface. It has full feature parity with the Mac interface.
- Video quality
- The x264 project has really come into its own this year, and HandBrake 0.9.3 integrates the latest improvements to the H.264 encoding library. Picture quality has enhanced dramatically through the use of psychovisual rate distortion and adaptive quantization, and there have been significant speed optimizations.
- Audio flexibility
- HandBrake now offers total control over multiple audio tracks.
- No more internal DVD decryption
- Yeah, we know, no one reading this is going "Oh wow, no more DVD decryption--what a great new feature!" but...deal.
- HandBrake will dynamically load VLC's copy of libdvdcss if you have it in your Applications folder in Mac OS X, and if you're on Linux, and you want to live on the wild side, you can install libdvdcss on your system and get the same effect.
- Translation of the last paragraph from nerdese:
- We're not about to stop you from choosing to decrypt DVDs. If you're on a Mac, and you have VLC 0.9.x installed, you won't even notice the internal capability's gone. If you're on Linux, all you have to do is install a library.
- Persistent queues
- When queueing up a bunch of videos to encode, you need no longer fear a crash in HandBrake's graphical interfaces. Queued jobs are cached to disk for safekeeping between sessions.
- New, better organized presets (Be sure to run "Update Built-In Presets" from the Presets menu!)
- The presets are now "nested" in folders and have evolved. Notably, there is a new Apple "Universal" preset, designed to play and look good doing so on anything from an iPod Nano to an AppleTV.
- There have been many changes to most of them. Please be aware that most presets now use different settings. This means most of them are not suited for benchmarking 0.9.3 against 0.9.2. For example, the AppleTV preset is slower because it is now quality based, and produces much more efficient output. The Normal preset uses psychovisual rate distortion. The High Profile presets use psychovisual trellising. All of these setting changes can influence encoding time and output file size.
- For comparison purposes, there are several presets in the Apple->Legacy folder (the old iPod High-Rez, the old AppleTV, and the old iPhone presets) which remain unchanged since 0.9.2.
- Audio-video synchronization
- HandBrake should now keep lip-synch as well as a DVD player can.
- Decomb filter
- HandBrake now offers a decomb filter, in the style of AviSynth's. It is a deinterlacer that can be left on all the time without degrading picture quality, because it only deinterlaces video when it visibly needs to be.
- Multi-threaded deinterlacing
- The "Slow" and "Slower" filters, as well as the new decomb filter, will now take advantage of as many processors as you can throw at them.
- "Same as source framerate" really is the same as the source framerate
- HandBrake now, by default, passes through the exact video framerate of the source instead of smoothing to a constant rate, which could lead to frames being duplicated or dropped.
- Theora video encoding
- HandBrake now can encode video using the Theora codec.
- Updated libraries
- Besides x264, updated libraries include libsamplerate, libogg, xvidcore, libmpeg2, lame, faac, and ffmpeg's libavcodec, libavformat, and libswscale.
- Massive improvements to all interfaces
- As hard as it might be to believe, the changes listed above are only the tip of the iceberg. A much longer list is available, but even that is only a brief summary. There have been well over 600 changes to HandBrake's code base since 0.9.2, including hundreds of bug fixes, and a thorough log can be found on the Trac.
