Be shure you use jamintel on intel Macs, plus, edit the jamfile in the contrib dir to comment the FFMPEG_PATCH "patch -p1 < ../patch-ffmpeg-macintel.patch" it simply don't apply cleanly and due to that, ffmpeg build fail... You're saying no patches are required for ffmpeg to compile clean...

Correct - but given 99% of our users will be putting content on an iPod through iTunes, I'm _very_ reticent about allowing this in IHB. HB, sure - the sky's the limit, but not IHB.

Unfortunately, the above does not apply with iTunes 7, which has a hard restriction of 640 pixels wide regardless of codec.

It was for 2 seconds - and you caught it. =)

I apologize - I'm doing all that I can to minimize impact to folks while still being able to get everything done and sleep. I'll do better.

Noted.

Trac relocated to http://handbrake.dynalias.com/trac. Should be seamless via redirection.

Rodney

I've moved the forums to their new permanent domain (you should have automatically been redirected here). Apologies for any disruption. No, we weren't Dugg again, but we're better protected now if we ever are.

Just 1 question. I uploaded a binary for the GUI into the windows folder but nothing appears there from the web side? Wrong Directory? No, I changed the way the files are processed (they used to be live updating, which drove I/O wait much too high - I now rsync once per minute) but forgot to enable...

Your Trac login and password will suffice. =)

Since we're going to have a need in the future for legitimate testers, and those folks should certainly play a role on Trac, I figure "one password file to rule them all" seemed like a good deal.

Get prepared, folks: 4g3nt_Smith by 4g3nt_Smith 12 hours ago This is ridiculous, these people have one of the largest group of "testers" for this version, and instead of letting us use it like we CHOSE to, they pull it and say we're not ready. My question is "If thats the case, then w...

The version number issue is actually going to cause us grief. While traversing through the code trying to fix the 100% hang issue, I found several instances of version numbers. In the trunk, in JamRules: HB_VERSION = 0.7.1a2 (used in libhb when we call hb_get_version and HB_BUILD = 20060923 (used i...

Now that HB is build on Windows, maybe we should consider unifying the HB and IHB interface and make is cross-platform. Okay, I am in no way intending to step on any toes here, but, it seems to me, that the obvious thing to do is incorporate a "Basic" and "Advanced" setting into...

Just plain, random, hopefully-not-discouraging thoughts: - Shared libraries = DLLs on Windows. Oy. :) - You now run the very real risk of a disconnect between GUI and library - what happens when they get out of sync for some reason? How do we easily diagnose that? - It's a lot to bite off. Sure, I'd...

Developers can, of course, still readily retrieve the test binaries (and contribute others) via FTP.

This was greatly accelerated as a result of this morning's Digg incident. If you're locked out of the svn, PM me.

Rodney

rhester, I know you are up to your eyeballs right now. But, you have locked down the svn, right? Have now (well, we're locked for writes, at least - couldn't care less if people download from the svn, since the number of people capable of doing so and knowing what to do with the result is so very s...

Re: "No accelerated IMDCT transform found" - as far as I know (someone correct me if I'm wrong), that will show up on any chip without Altivec. I've always seen it on both Windows and Linux builds (from 0.7.0 forward, I wasn't around earlier).

Rodney

It's OK, we're still standing. Just waiting for the idiot parade to end. I'm definitely going to be a few days delayed on the work I was trying to do, but it is what it is. The world can wait a little longer. Or a LOT longer, if Digg is in any way representative of the general HandBrake user base (a...

Just stopped a DoS attack from 67.83.102.96. I presume somebody set a downloader for infinite no-delay retry...always a good thing.

Rodney

I had no idea such children were avid end-users of HandBrake. *sigh*

Rodney

My patience runneth out with the following Digg reply: by DigitalN 8 minutes ago well some of us don't care if it is not meant for the public or not, we dont want to have to rip a DVD with handbrake for 2 hours, and then have to use iSquint for another 2-3 just so we can use it on our iPod. OK, so h...

I'm controlling the download traffic now so it doesn't affect the rest of the site, that's not the issue. The issue is that we got Dugg, and we shouldn't have, because this release (hell, it isn't even a "release" - it's a mishmash of various binaries from various contributors, not necessa...

I am slowly beginning to recover from the Digg storm. I have shunted the download traffic off to a dedicated vhost on my machine where I can throttle the bandwidth. Things of note: - We were Dugg. This would ordinarily be complimentary, but at this point, it only served to nearly completely knock us...

If my measurement is correct, right now traffic peak would absolutely bury a dedicated T1. :/

OK, I may have spoken too soon - still working on it. My poor DSL...
