HandBrake 0.9.4 Released
Tuesday, November 24, 2009

According to the developers, 64-bit builds tend to perform approximately 10% better than their 32-bit brethren. It also includes a new feature called Live Preview, which enables you to encode a small sequence of video, so that you can check out how it will look after processing. Other improvements in this release include the following:

| Great!!! I love HandBrake. ...wonder if they'll ever support Blu-rays (or maybe that's like asking when Apple will support Blu-rays??) |

Already does, just not as easily as you might like.

| Love the life preview feature. Nothing wrong with it going faster either. I'll take any bump I can get. |

| I think I liked having the picture setting controls more in the main window, but it rocks. |

I downloaded it in GUI 64 bits but it tells me that I need VLC in 64 bits as well, I thought VLC was only in 32 bits.
I replaced it with the 32 bits version and it is as slow as before.
How can I use the 64bits version of Handbrake?

I think they dropped 64-bit with 1.0.3 because the 64-bit version of 1.0.2 was extremely buggy. You can get them from the nightly builds though.
