Handbrake for Windows Available

[Kerensky]

I don't know if this has been discussed before, but there is now a competent Windows version of the Mac Handbrake encoding software available at: http://www.sr88.co.uk/projects.php

Very nice actually. Simple and effective. Worth taking a look at for somebody who just wants to "get it done".

/add: no docs and needs .net2.0 - not real fast and seems to be an early version.

What am I missing?

When I try to start the GUI, it generates the following error:The application failed to initialize properly (0xc000035). Click on OK to terminate the applicationMy folder includes all of the following files which were included in the .RAR d/l:

changelog.txt 2kb
cygwin1.dll 1,266kb
dvdinfo.bat 0 kb
dvdinfo.txt 0 kb
HandBrake Gui.exe 296kb
HBTest.exe 7,964kb
profiles.dat 0kb
Readme.txt 1kb

Hmm, all I did was unzip it to a directory and ran the gui, gave it a video_ts folder for input, an output file name, and pressed "go". It ran ok.

@DDogg

Does your directory contain only the identical filenames and filesizes as those I've listed?

@DDogg

Does your directory contain only the identical filenames and filesizes as those I've listed? Yep, exactly the same names. You do have .net installed? [I am thinking it may need .net2]

[setarip_old]

Yep, exactly the same names.But are the filesizes the same? I have my suspicions about the three -0- byte files

You do have .net installed?Nope.

1) I found no mention of that in the "History" or anywhere else

2) An apparently earlier version (v.0.7) seems to work fine - Don't know if it's by the same author though...

[DDogg]

Yes, those file sizes also show 0 on my end. The app is fairly rudimentary with no docs - might be worth playing with if you already have .net 2.0 installed, but probably would not warrant installing it.

[setarip_old]

No, I won't install Net 2.0 for this - It was more of a curiosity than anything else.

Thanks for the feedback ;>}
