Thanks also to Peter Swallow (Swoop) for his great work testing ffmpeg and ffmpegGUI!

Here are the change notes for ffmpgGUI v1.2 which includes a list of many of the new codec's and formats supported by the new ffmpeg. Note that ffmpeg also now properly decodes ac3 audio typically included with DVD's.

Version 2.1 (Released Version)
Added USE_KINGCON tooltype to allow using kingCon cousole for output.
Modified to close console output window when 'Ok' is clicked on the done
requester.
Added high definition video bitrates: 548k, 12000k, 16000k, 24000k and 36000k

Organized "Predifined Setups" directory into sub directories.

Modifications to support ffmpeg SNV-r16701:
Added check for required ffmpeg version number. Still allows running other
versions
but unsupported items will not work and I removed workarounds to avoid crashes

Added new video size choice of 704x576 to support arm_nb/wb video codecs.
Added support for arm_wb audio codec via libarm_wb encoder. (Higher Quality
for older cell phones.)
Added support for new audio bitrates now enforced for arm_nb/wb audio codecs.
(arm_nb - 7.4k, and 12.2k; arm_wb - 15.85k and 23.85k )
Updated Cellphone saved settings files to use compatable audio bitrates.
Changed Cellphone quick setup menu presets to use compatable audio bitrates.
Removed workaround for padding crash defect when used with mpeg1video codec.
(Seems fixed with new version but will now crash with old version.)
Added requester for indicating libmp3lame error reported by ffmpeg is Ok.

Added support for the following file formats:
.ogg (Audio / Video format)
.m4a (ipod audio file format)
.bmp and %5d.bmp (graphic file format)
.tiff and %5d.tiff (graphics file format)

Added support for the following video codecs:

Added support for the following audio codecs:

This is great news!

I noticed it very early on but it was like 1:30am here so was able to download it but not use it. Some are those codecs etc will make life easier for many.

Excellent tool!

Keep up the good work!!!!
