VidCoder is a DVD/Blu-ray ripping and video transcoding application for Windows. It uses HandBrake as its encoding engine. Calling directly into the HandBrake library gives it a more rich UI than the official HandBrake Windows GUI. VidCoder can rip DVDs but does not defeat the CSS encryption found in most commercial DVDs.

Changes in VidCoder 2.60:
- Fixed issue where a manually entered destination could get clobbered if switching to another window while focus is still on destination box.
- Fixed issue where we did not add audio frame overhead in audio size calculation when "Same as Source" sample rate was picked, which caused incorrect video size calculation.
- Fixed crash when switching to a picker with a renamed encoding preset.
- Fixed potential crash when closing the app and stopping an encode.
- Updated translations.
- Next up: Starting the Beta releases for v3
