Badaboom Buggy, But New Version Coming Sept 18th
Posted: Fri Aug 22, 2008 4:22 pm
I haven't had a chance to run Badaboom yet, but it seems like it has a number of bugs and the crew from Elemental doesn't want us to review it till the next beta comes out next month. Just thought I'd give our community the heads up.
We have received some great feedback on Badaboom since the beta was launched earlier this month. Please note that this is a beta client and does not represent the shipping product in stability, features, or performance. If you plan to publish a review of the product, please wait for the final version, which will be released on September 18.
Some key changes include:
Bug Fixes:
· DVD compatibility: some DVDs may cause Badaboom to crash. These issues have been reproduced and are fixed in the final version.
· Output framerate is sometimes different from input framerate. This has been resolved.
· Altered aspect ratio: the UI has been improved to better inform the user the output resolutions.
· General stability: there are a variety of crash issues that have been fixed. The release version will be significantly more stable than the beta release.
Improvements:
· Customizable output file location & name
· Greater selection of output resolutions
· Unlimited custom bitrates supported via UI and through custom XML profiles.
· Custom profiles with unrestricted bitrates can also be created in the current beta version.
Thanks, The Badaboom team
