  • Added default preset, which will store output setting once configured. Note: quality will be updated to higher setting if source files have higher values and preset selected before adding files.
  • Added predefined presets, which have pre-configured, but editable output settings (i.e. ipod nano, iphone, android 5+. etc). Note: they will not auto-update if source files have higher quality.
  • Added option to add custom presets. Note: they will behave like default preset.
  • Added artwork to progress element in job queue.
  • Significantly reworked UI to support smaller monitors and high scale settings
  • Output format (ogg, m4b, mp3) and split configuration are now part of output settings and part of presets.
  • Fixed quite a few bugs.
  • Updated to OpenJDK 15.0.1 and JavaFX 15.0.1

Known issues: sometimes last used source folder and last used output folder are not saved - i'm looking into it, but as this is not critical decided to make release anyway.

  • Fixed broken release 5.3.0
  • Rollbacked openjfx librady to version 14. As all subsequent versions are broken, which caused failure of release 5.3.0 (Created corresponding issue openjfx/openjfx-docs#162)

Release 5.3.0 Pre-release
Pre-release
  • Updated OpenJDK to version 14.0.2
  • Updated ffmpeg to version 4.3
  • Fixed #80
  • Fixed #83
  • Fixed #84
  • Fixed #89

P.S. update of JDK and recent windows update caused a lot of non productive investigations (windows update 2004 changed non unicode locales behavior, which impacted installer, etc, so I had to fallback to laptop which is not updated yet and decided to release whatever could be released now.

P.P.S. Release is broken. I need to investigate further...

Release 5.0.0 - BETA Pre-release
Pre-release

NOTE: THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL BUILD

  • upgraded from Java 8 to Java 14 (Finnaly!!! As standard packager was broken in Java 9, then removed and now returned in Java 14).
  • replaced INNO installer with WIX, as a new standard method of packaging in Java 14.
  • several cosmetic UI changes

P.S. This version will offer to upgrade to new version - as I keep version 4.6.0 as stable one, please ignore notification, once I test this release more properly - I will update.
