Version History of VirtualDub 1.5.9 [features added]
Made \'autodetect additional segments by filename\'
option sticky.
Removed trackbar ticks when ticks are a solid bar
to speed up edits on very long timelines.
Added option to disable use of DirectX in video
displays under Preferences/Display.
[bugs fixed]
Fixed odd lock-to-keyframe behavior with edit lists
that have out of order segments.
Fixed move-to-next-keyframe command at end of time-
line.
Fixed decompression of 1-bit and 4-bit uncompressed
AVI files under Windows 95/98.
Audio compression dialog showed the wrong set of
valid formats if a precision was selected under
Audio Conversion.
The current edit list is no longer applied to batch
jobs created from entire directories.
[regressions fixed]
Fixed display crashes with odd-width images.
Segment loading wasn\'t hopping across drives to pick
up segments from a multisegment capture, as directed
by the AVI\'s segment hint block.
About:
VirtualDub is a video capture/processing utility for 32-bit Windows platforms (95/98/ME/NT4/2000/XP), licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). It lacks the editing power of a general-purpose editor such as Adobe Premiere, but is streamlined for fast linear operations over video. It has batch-processing capabilities for processing large numbers of files and can be extended with third-party video filters. VirtualDub is mainly geared toward processing AVI files, although it can read (not write) MPEG-1 and also handle sets of BMP images.
