Handbrake 0.9 released with speed, quality enhancements and more

Bob S.: Late response I'm afraid. My point was that mirrors are designed to spread the bandwidth needed - around 6 were used for this release, and were allocated randomly by a script. Posting the address of only one mirror would have flooded it with a disproportionate amount of traffic, and would have slowed everyone's downloads to a crawl, or worse.

Not to mention the nasty letter they'd get from the hosting provider the next day. :-)

Hawkman, I admit to a little confusion about why people shouldn't download from mirrors, which is the whole point of mirrors. (Unless they're private mirrors, of course, but that doesn't seem to be the case.) Are these people "donating their bandwidth" on the condition that no one take advantage of it by downloading?

FWIW, googling for handbrake download mirror makes it rhetorical, if crunch time isn't over already anyway. I just don't quite get the logic.

I like the new look, and all the shiny new options to play with, too. Has anyone experimented with the new deinterlacing and noise reduction options to see which settings work best?

Ugh! Thanks papasteve. I've been using 3 presets for who knows how long. Just updated and there are now over a dozen. :)

@ Mystic,

You gotta update presets manually. Presets->Update Built-in Presets.

I don't see the preset for the iPhone. Did anyone else get the new presets?

Does anyone else have this problem? When I go into the advanced x264 options, all the parameters are labeled "Item 1" "Item 2" "Item 3" etc, which renders them useless.

@23: "they should steal the transmission icon"

... it's a gear shift, why would they steal it?

nice

Thanks for the Safari trick, it solved my problem!
