iSquint 1.5

iSquint, the little video encoder that could, has hit version 1.5. New things in iSquint 1.5 include a new icon, 640x480 H.264 low complexity support (whatever that means), Flash 8 video can be converted to iPod friendly formats, and faster tagging for videos in iTunes.

All of this for the low, low price of free. However, iSquint is a one trick pony (but it does that one trick very well) so if you're looking for a more robust encoder check out VisualHub.

The reason the previous version didn't advertise VisualHub was because VisualHub didn't exist when it was released.

iSquint wont upsample. To do 320x240 leave it on Optimized for iPod. To keep it the same size or scaled down to 640px wide use Optimized for TV.

Doesn't seem to have the option to let us select the 320x240 res and the newer 640x480 res. Am I wrong? I was thinking certain video are too low res to be upsampled too 640x480 by default.

The low complexity profile is what must be used in order to encode 640x480 H.264 for the iPod.

Funny, i don't remember the last version advertising for VisualHub on the first launch. Kind of annoying. But at least it doesn't do it every launch.
