Spoiler: v9.17 changelog

First v9 Stable release, that brings all of the v9 Beta work over to the Stable track.

• HandBrake core changes:
  • Added AMD VCN AV1 encoder
  • Added NVIDIA NVENC AV1 encoder
  • Added support for SVT-AV1 multi-pass ABR mode
  • Full list of changes: Release 1.7.0 · HandBrake/HandBrake
• Enabled NVDec hardware decoding, supported only when using an NVEnc encoder and with the right hardware.
• Added an option to remove the cap of 3 simultaneous NVEnc encodes. Only those that have custom NVidia drivers that remove the cap should choose this.
• Increased the maximum simultaneous encode setting cap to 16.
• Added log window virtualization. This should greatly reduce memory use and prevent hangs when using Extended logging.
• Added the option to use a polling folder watcher (Global options Advanced Watcher mode). This is a slower, less efficient way of detecting files in watched folders, but is a good option if you find the regular watcher is not functioning.
• Updated Global Options to immediately apply changes.
• Added shortcuts to the Encoding Settings and Picker windows from the Global Options window. It includes desriptions to help people find settings they are looking for.
• Added more checks around the file save dialog, retrying without an initial directory or file name when it fails. This fixes a potential crash on an invalid folders.
• Added a Picker ability to choose titles based on the width or height.
• Changed to delay the allow sleep operation until after the post-encode triggers have had a chance to execute. This should fix an issue where the system would sleep instead of shutting down as configured.
• Added option to restart on encode/queue complete.
• Removed restriction on setting another subtitle as Default when a track is burned in.
• Added "None" option for automatic audio track selection.
• Added checkbox in Global Options to quickly enable or disable auto-pause on process.
• Added "pause" and "resume" commands to VidCoderCLI.exe.
• When editing a queue item, the original preset name is now shown first, "Old preset - Restored from Queue" rather than just showing "Restored from Queue".
• A bunch of bug fixes

Spoiler: v9.18 Bugfix changelog

Fixed issue that caused the main window mini-preview image to disappear.
