v1.9.5.6

  • Comeback of copy selected timespan in Transcode Tab**

  • Unlimited number of tasks in the batch list located on the right side**

  • New Tab Record is introduced for viewing and recording audio and/or video streams (from Internet or local network)**
    vct4

  • Experimental use introduced FFPlay for playing streams, Play button added to Convert tab as well - separate window is opened for playing asynchronously - you can continue working in the main window

  • Since it is still experimental, only basic selection is possible (user can still manually edit ffmpeg command before recording):

  • if Audio file is selected to record streaming, then simple copy from stream to the file is given, if you want full conversion on-the-fly, then you must enter options manually for the ffmpeg command

  • if Video is selected to record streaming, then options are given to record video in 600 seconds segments - if you want to record in a single, large file, then modify the command before clicking Start Recording
    vct5

  • Check Stream button will display stream information in the log panel at the right side - format is JSON, so you can see what codec is used and thus choose appropriate file format

  • Source code for Linux mono and Windows forms has finally converged and it is now the same. Difference is in file naming conventions (slash and backslash, and ffmpeg calls). Runtime check is used to decide if the Linux (or Mac) or Windows is the running platform. For performance reasons, I suggest to use Linux (or Mac) Mono, instead of Wine. I use it now predominantly on Linux Debian 9 in the cloud, so that I don't occupy my own PC

**LINUX NOTE: Since new version needs ffplay and it can't be found as a static build for Linux you have to both install ffmpeg package and copy the binaries that I included, ffmpeg and ffprobe manually to /usr/bin/.

UPDATE: I added small scripts to automate installations.
For Debian, Ubuntu, etc. with APT package manager download install_vct_apt.sh, and run it(provide sudo credentials):
./install_vct_apt.sh or just double click it - execute in terminal! It will update packages, download VCT_mono_binary and create desktop file vct.sh which you can double click to run the program.

For Fedora, Centos, etc. with YUM package manager download install_vct_apt.sh, and run it(provide sudo credentials):
./install_vct_apt.sh or just double click it - execute in terminal! It will update packages, download VCT_mono_binary and create desktop file vct.sh which you can double click to run the program.

Program will be installed in $HOME/VCT_mono/.

For other distros that use other package managers, please read INSTALL_README.txt and install manually.

** MAC NOTE: Mac mono doesn't support WinForms in the latest 64-bit Mac versions. So, the best bet is to use Crossover for Mac and windows binary: VCT_Setup.exe.
