HandBrake

Okay, thanks for testing the UB. Both the "Check for New Version" bug and the "Read for Optical Drive" Bug existed before the UB. Those cropped up once we move the svn from Titers Official Site to this svn. In the ensuing upgrades, we dont think any of that code changed, but obvi...

SndChsr, yup, in fact all mac, PPC or Intel requires that file. It has never been very well documented. When I first started poking around with compiling handbrake from the source, I actually just happened to stumble on it. Brings up what is probably a stupid question, but why not just include that ...

Okay, I think it may be best to stay away from bindings for now. I will just work on the small additions and suggest we leave bindings to maybe a complete rewrite of the gui. That would be best in my opinion. So, other than a couple of existing incompatibilites with 10.2 (which exist back into the t...

Well, and someone else compiling on Intel Mac make sure I am right on this. For PPC (and as far as I know Intel) you cannot use the modified jam that comes with Xcode (see below from the BUILD file that came with HB source). On OS X, you cannot use the modified jam shipped with the developer tools, ...

As far as binary goes, I'd say we're not ready. For one thing, that failed compile attempt in the testing thread scares me. For another, trying to support a bunch of iPod newbies the day after Christmas would be a nightmare, imo. If someone really wants it, they'll find MK2000's build. I think havi...

Awesome rhester, I am hoping for some input regarding stability, and viablility from the others. I am interested in hearing how it has worked for SndChsr on Intel. After xmas, I plan to get an Intel box so I can do alot more in that world.

Just an update on the gui. I have been busy at work lately and between that and pre holiday stuff, I have been hard pressed to develop the gui lately. But, plan to keep plugging away at it. I am hoping to be able to make it available next week, between Christmas and New Years. I think (at least for ...

I would very much like to see dynaflash's GUI make it into svn as well. Ideally, both his GUI and the addition of CRF would be coupled together, such that CRF and CQP (in addition to ABR) would be accessible from both GUI and CLI, giving users the best of all worlds (but then comes the burning ques...

Hey, as I am working on my GUI for Mac a question arises: Do we need to have the gui stay Jaguar compatible? Right now, the mac os gui is for the most part compatible back to 10.2 (well, with the exception of the 'hidden' properities for the que buttons, which only work for 10.3 and above). By going...

SndChsr was our tester for clean Intel Mac Compile. He reported a clean compile right out of the svn (Rev71) as far as I know. jbrjake and I got the clean compiles for PPC. I belive rhester was Linux. We decided to go ahead with a rev71 without any BeOS testing (no one could think of anyone that use...

I applaud your desires to take HandBrake in a new and more powerful direction - that's something I'd like to see as well. I want it to maintain its roots as the "iPod widget of choice", because it performs so well in that role, but it is clearly capable of so much more. Besides the PSP an...

Awesome work folks!! Holiday stuff last night, this morning, and unfortunately tonight for me. But, I am sneaking in a fresh checkout of 72, building and setting up a nice baseline level 3 encode at 1500 ABR to see how she works!!! Tomorrow plan to hammer away at the GUI and see if its something you...

I am with jbrjake on this. Lets get it out there and build on it if everyone here agrees.

dynaflash, it looks like some of the GUI files have versions as well: macosx/.svn/text-base/HandBrake.plist.svn-base macosx/HandBrake.xcodeproj/.svn/text-base/project.pbxproj.svn-base macosx/HandBrake.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj macosx/HandBrake.plist Should those be updated to match? Hmmm. I have to...

Awesome! Hope it works out. Now I suppose we will need a Linux test.

jbr, thanks for summarizing what we did. I cant speak for SndChsr, but I was not really sure how to apply the code you posted but figured out how to modify my files straight away to reflect your changes. So my files are actually changed to reflect your patches manually. Again, coming from a Perl wor...

Okay, well, that makes sense, I misinterpreted your ideas originally on the way to handle the revs. Sorry. SndChsr, on the page before this is the steps jbrjake and I took for an easy compile for ppc. I think you would want to follow those steps plus try the additional steps he states at the top of ...

Maybe if SndChsr is up to it, he can get up to speed with where we are and try it. Alas, I am on ppc as well so have applied it as have you but cannot test it. PPC seems smooth in my testing so far. Are we at a point where we submit a rev 71 to the trunk with the new x264 without the intel patch and...

Worked Great for me as well, will try a couple encodes today with the gui and see who it works.

Thanks a bunch rhester for getting that new x264 merged, etc.

jbr, thanks again for all of the nuts and bolts pointers.

PPC right now, particularly due to some huge memory leak issues with x264 for Intel. However, we are working to get those ironed out. So, for now ppc.

Well, right now it looks like we might be getting things together with this new x264. So I really dont want to release it until the other developers check it out and want to make it available via the svn trunk here, I dont want to subvert the distribution channel we have here. Plus, it is using a ha...

jbrjake Thanks for clearing that up for me. I really appreciate it. Hopefully the new x264 will be able to be folded into the rev70 code okay. But, alas, I dont think I am the one to do it. I quite obviously am over my head at the moment. The possiblities are awesome for this project and I hope we c...

ABR = Average Bit Rate CQP = Constant Quantizer (I forget what the P stands for) CRF = Constant Rate Factor Okay, so : ABR should paralell to the same in the GUI version. CRF should paralell to the Constant Quality Radio slider in the GUI CQP should paralell to the Target Size in the GUI I will vet...

Okay, I think the fog is lifting.

By ABR you are referring to using Average BitRate, I presume. Again, unfortunately I havent spent the time on the cli terminology. I apologize in advance.

So, are you saying that an x264 only upgrade revision would have to include changes to rev 70's libhb ? Second question: in your opinion is there a downside to this? Not to sound stupid, but what were the reasons for these changes between titers rev69 and rhesters rev70? Is it to enable the h.264 ba...
