all-1.1.2 (GUI app release)

ffzap has a GUI app now! 🥳

By popular request (literally nobody), ffzap has a desktop GUI application now, available for Windows, Linux and macOS. It has all features of the CLI, but presents them in a more casual user friendly way. Download it right away from below.

Please report any potential bugs, issues or questions here.

---

Apart from that, ffzap has been split up into three parts in a major refactoring:

• ffzap_core (the shared libraries used by the cli and ui that handles the ffmpeg processes, multithreading, logging, etc.)
• ffzap (the cli which is the same as before)
• ui (the graphical interface for major all major desktop operating systems)

You can read more about that in the root's readme.

In detail

• docs: add website by @CodeF0x in #33

• docs: use youtube embed instead of local video by @CodeF0x in #35

v1.1.0

New Features:

• added ETA (highly experimental)
• better error handling for the --file-list argument

Misc:

• removed deprecated --input-directory and --input-file arguments

v1.0.0

Version 1.0.0 is out!

Note: When running ffzap without either --input or --file-list, it will prompt that both --input-directory and --input-file are missing and required. This is a bug. Either --input or --file-list are required. Both --input-directory and --input-file won't work and throw an error. This is not critical and does not affect ffzap in its actual functionality. Both --input-directory and --input-file will get removed with the next version of ffzap.

Features:

• -f / --ffmpeg-options is optional now, allowing to change container formats, etc.

Breaking Changes:

• --input-directory got deprecated in favor of --input
• --input-file got deprecated in favor of --file-list

Please read about why here. For a guide on how to migrate to version 1.0.0, read this.

0.3.2

New features:

• showing a list of all failed (if any) files upon completion if --verbose is set
• adding a list of all failed (if any) files to the final log upon completion (this is not affected by the --verbose flag)

0.3.1

Features:

• showing overall percentage next to x / y display in progressbar

0.3.0

New features:

• supply a file containing file paths to process, using the new --input-file input. The file must be UTF-8 encoded and contain one path per line
• delete source files after successful processing with the new --delete flag. If the process was unsuccessful, the file is kept.

Misc:

• Better wording for some of the --help text.

0.2.3

• fixed a bug where multiple threads where accessing the log file at once, creating weird and partly overwritten lines in the log file

0.2.2

• ffzap will now automatically create a log file in the default log location of each major OS
• verbose output is now hidden per default (use --verbose to show)
