Video Transcoding v0.12.3 Release Notes

  • Tuesday, December 6, 2016

    • Increase the speed and quality of the --quick option. Encoding is now 70-80% faster than the default setting with no easily perceptible loss in video quality. The improvement is so good that I no longer recommend using x264 presets to speed things up. Via #104.
    • ⚡️ Update the "README" document to:
      • Revise the "Understanding the x264 preset system" section to suggest using --quick or --target big instead of faster or slower presets.
      • Add Docker virtualization software installation instructions. Via #98 from @ntodd.
