Updated x265 to 1.8 which brings numerous bug fixes and some performance improvements.
This is great! I've compared 1.5 vs 1.8 for all presets and they are 30-50% faster on a Ivy Bridge CPU and use slightly less bitrate (in most cases), presumably with the same quality, although I did not check that. (The underlying settings remain identical, if I'm not wrong.)

It should be even faster on a Haswell and later CPU, due to AVX2.

x265 1.9 would be even faster because they introduced the limit-refs.

But x265 is still pretty slow. Preset medium is like x264's veryslow.

Nice. Here's hoping that x265 10-bit will be enabled in 1.0 though

As I've said a number of times already. HandBrake does not and will not ship if the 10 bit x265 library. It will be up to you to find and install this. If installed correctly, HandBrake will dynamically load it. On linux systems, it is easy as all repositories appear to be distributing all versions of the library. But I don't know what the situation is for windows and osx.

Is it intended that 0.10.3 does not compile on mac osx 10.9.5 with xcode Version 6.2 (6C131e)?

The previous 0.10.2 makes no trouble... Any advice how to fix this?

Possibly. This is the kind of stuff best discussed on IRC (#handbrake), IMO.

You need Xcode 7 to compile the HandBrake Mac gui. If you want just the cli you should be able to compile it in Terminal if you pass the option to disable Xcode to the configure script.

Thanks for the advice... The resulting Handbrake GUI can run on osx 10.7 upwards but can not compiled on osx prior 10.10 ?!

I think that is a bit more conservative Prerequisites would be better...

I don't run Linux, sadly. I'm a Windows user, so I guess I'm out of luck.

Fast and quick question.
Where can one get this VCE build? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rI4fzMDDxYg

There are no public builds at the moment. It'll hit the nightly builds sometime in the future. No date yet though.

No, you are not out of luck. You just have to find a windows build of the x265 libraries. There are people who provide them, just not us. Scan the doom9 forum thread for x265 development http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=168814

It isn't even in the main repo yet?

I do see this pull request https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/pull/88, is this what the delay is about?

It's not in the main repo yet. It's not even an accepted patch yet. We havn't even formally announced it as a feature. AMD's marketing guru's jumped the gun a bit there.

The patch is not ready yet and won't be accepted until it is. The PR is just there for folk to comment on right now.

These things take Time. QSV was probably over a year after Intel's first announcement before it was ready for prime time for example. This patch is simpler so hopefully will be quicker but there is no schedule. People work on things in their free time and we are still waiting from feedback from them regarding some issues.
