I just went there to redownload it from a cold restore on my computer. Version 1.7.1 was released yesterday (2005-7-28)!

Version 1.7.1 (2005-07-28)
Fixed an old bug that suddenly showed itself (by crashing) when I tried VirtualDub-MPEG2 with an HDV clip.

Version 1.7 (2005-07-26)
Improved the algorithm that extracts panning, rotation and zoom from the motion vectors slightly. Previously, sometimes too few white vectors were found without a "good reason".

Added a new "deep analysis" algorithm that makes the extraction of panning, rotation and zoom a lot more reliable in complicated clips. Unfortunately I couldn't get it as fast as I would have hoped and therefore it's not enabled in the default settings. Read more about this under the "deep analysis" setting below.

Deshaker should no longer crash when running VirtualDub batch jobs (wasn't my fault...).

You may now enter fractional numbers for the setting that discards motion of blocks that move > X pixels in wrong direction. (I tend to use values below 1 a lot to really only follow the background, and also to make the new deep analysis algorithm find the background among moving people etc.)

Added a new pixel aspect ratio preset for HDV 1440x1080. (HDV 1280x720 has square pixels, as does the HD resolution 1920x1080.)

Modified the pixel aspect ratio for all NTSC variants very, very slightly. (Standard NTSC was changed from 72/79 to 4320/4739, which is the correct PAR according to this page.)
