Download Dr. DivX 2.0.0 beta 10

The developers at DivX Labs have been busy with Dr. DivX and have released a new version. The program can encode different video images with the DivX codec which will reduce the file size and the quality will be visibly the same. dr. DivX has been available for some time under the LGPL license and can run on various platforms such as Linux, Mac OS X and Windows 2000/XP. However, the current beta versions only work on the Windows platform. The developers have released the tenth beta version of Dr. DivX 2.0.0 released with the following changes:

Version 2.0.0 beta 10:

what’s new
• Change the way advanced audio selection is done
• Make the Survey Opt Out
• New options to set the output resolutions (auto, fixed width, fixed size)
• Reduce the aspect ratio error range (3.5% to 1.5%)
• Add progress reporting for divx mux stage (Muxing of big files takes really long)
• Add support for LockedAutoResize and AutoCrop modes in custom profiles
• Add a global application-wide preference for width and height modulo factor used for calculating resolutions

What’s Fixed

• Fix a crash when selecting a custom profile and going to advanced properties
• Enable log messages during Preferences query of DrFFMPEG
• Don’t reuse a job pointer when the job has been deleted (occasional crash when removing jobs)
• Improve seeking in the preview for various formats
• Use double digits for jobs names so that the order is kept intact in case of a crash
• Don’t display the decoded frame in the preview when the whole image is cropped
• Store all metadata in UTF8 in the job (otherwise the job cannot be read back)
• Make all threads use the same priority to avoid blocking one in favor or the other
• Make sure the input and output folders of a Watched Folder are different
• Parse IFO filenames even if they include a prefix or suffix (partially fixes #1444296)
• The VideoPreview now release the input file lock (fixes #1442569)
• Protect avcodec_open and avcodec_close as they don’t seem to be reentrant
• Display the graph of video frames for quality-based encoding
• Detect audio delay correctly for VOBs whose the first picture’s temporal sequence number is not equal to 0
• Constrain-to-file-size based custom profile respects the file size property
• Detect audio delay for non-AVI input file containers only
• Seeking by file offset used in analysis instead of time-stamp to work-around pts bugs in MPEG files

DrFFMPEG

• Fixes for RV10 decoding
• Add channel down-mixing in DirectShow (you can leave your AC3 decoder to 5.1 output now)
• Improve seeking in ASF/WMV/DVR-MS
• Fixes for Cinepak keyframe indication
