In order to make it a little easier for everyone to find the newest version, and read about any changes, I am creating this thread as a "single source". The thread itself will be locked -- but you can subscribe to it and, as a result, will be automatically notified each time it is updated with a new version.
The latest Professional Edition (VIP) version is v1.28.2, released on July 12th 2008.
Released only to VIP contributors. The Professional Edition includes numerous improvements over the freeware version and a newer modernized interface. Read about the Pro Edition
here. See the changes for this version
here. If you are a registered (paid) user you can download the new version
from this link. Note: This version of the software is only for VIP users (donators) and
will not function unless you are a registered user!
The latest Public Release (freeware) version is v0.98.2, released on December 15th, 2006. You can get it
here (jdobbs.net). Read about it
here. The freeware version is now being distributed complete with the Rockas Installer. This distribution includes all associated apps, includings the recommended versions of the HC and QuEnc encoders (total 4.5MB). If are using a dialup connection and want to download just the Rebuilder executable in an "Update Only" zip file file -- you can get it
here (about 591KB).
Note: Some browsers may need to "Refresh" to get the most current version.
Thank You Beta Testers!
A heads-up to all: I continue working on the "Professional Edition" and will also continue to release copies to VIPs.
It includes many additional features that will never be in the freeware version -- the Pro version is only distributed to those who contribute at a certain level (see REBUILDER.TXT for more info). VIPs will get automatic upgrades for the life of the product. Freeware versions will continue (normally including only bugfixes) but will
never include the extended features.
A special thanks to wmansir for this great idea.
