| + | :1. '''Important''' |
||
| + | ::If you have problems with tovid 0.34, specifically ffmpeg commands that will not run properly, use SVN. The latest updates for the fast changing ffmpeg api go there. See the [[Installing tovid|Subversion]] section of "Installing tovid". |

||
| − | *'''April 11 2015 List of Packages updated!''' |
||
| − | * The list of packages for various distributions has been updated, and old links removed. |
||
| − | * Most major distros how have a package represented, though not necessarily officially. |
||
| − | * See [[Installing_tovid#Platform-specific_instructions|this section]] |
||
| ⚫ | |||
| − | *'''March 25 2015 Tovid has moved to Github!''' |
||
| − | * The new address is [https://github.com/tovid-suite/tovid here] |
||
| − | * Quick link to download [https://github.com/tovid-suite/tovid/releases/download/v0.35.0/tovid-0.35.0.tar.gz tovid-0.35.0] |
||
| − | * Note on versioning: I have switched to the more commonly used Github practice of symantic versioning, hence 0.35.0 instead of 0.35. In practice this will affect nothing, as I do not intend at present to release anything but major releases, so the next release will be 0.36.0. |
||
| − | * The tar.gz in the "Quick link" above is the same as the one previously uploaded with only a couple of minor non-runtime changes to accommodate the new address. I have also updated the one on google drive for those using the previously posted download address, that address will still work as before. |

| − | *'''Jan.28 2015 Tovid 0.35 is released!''' See [[#Get|this section]] for details. |
||
| ⚫ | |||
| − | *As of this release, mencoder has been removed and transcode is no longer a 'hard' dependancy, simplifying things for people who had difficulty installing those programs. As well makexml and makemenu have been removed as their functions are duplicated in the 'tovid disc' command. (see manpage for details, also [[Making a DVD with text menus]]). |
||
| − | *Now avconv (libav.org) is supported as well as ffmpeg. |
